FAQ
What is Nuanze?
Nuanze is a reading tool for language learners. Paste a sentence or an article in any language. Nuanze marks only the parts you would stumble on, such as split verbs, fixed expressions and tricky grammar, with one short note each. It does not translate word by word.
What is a knot?
A knot is a part of a sentence you would not read correctly on your own: a split verb, a fixed expression or a grammar pattern. When its pieces stand apart, Nuanze joins them with an arc.
Which languages does Nuanze support?
Any written language. Nuanze detects it from the text. Notes are in English.
How is Nuanze different from a translator?
A translator replaces the sentence, so you stop reading the original. A word-by-word gloss explains every word, even the ones you know. Nuanze keeps the original and explains only the knots.
What do Later and Known do?
Later: select any phrase and keep it; it stays marked in the text and in your history for review. Known: mark a knot as known, and the next readings skip it.
How much does Nuanze cost?
€9 per month or €90 per year. One plan with every feature and every model. A yearly plan costs the same as 10 months.
