A word is more than a pile of kanji.
Termy keeps the scene in view and explains the word you actually saw. And when a compound has a useful split, you see that too.
See how the word fits together
図書館 makes more sense as 図書 + 館. A useful split beats three unrelated character glosses.
Come back to the exact moment
Save the word with its sentence and screenshot. Later, you review the same moment instead of a context-free flashcard.
Quick help now. Full context when you review.
The on-screen explanation stays brief so you can keep going. In Vocabulary, return to the original sentence, screenshot, and deeper details.
Practice with the context where you found it.
Termy turns saved words and phrases into adaptive exercises: context questions, fill-in-the-blank prompts, typing, listening, screenshot recall, and reviews timed to your memory.
Termy supports 30 languages.

Questions before installing?
Is Termy a screen translator?
Not quite. Screen translators don't give you a chance to think, understand, and actually learn the language — they just let you skip past the gaps in your knowledge. Termy, on the other hand, only steps in exactly where it's needed — at the hardest moments — so you keep thinking in the language you're learning and keep building your vocabulary. Words and phrases you've looked up in Termy can, and should, be revisited: recall the context they came from, learn other meanings and forms, listen to the pronunciation. Then reinforce them through practice using the FSRS method.
How does practice in Termy work?
Termy builds practice from the words and phrases you save in real content. It keeps the original sentence, screenshot context, explanation, and translation connected, then uses adaptive timing and varied exercises such as context questions, fill-in-the-blank prompts, typing, listening, and screenshot recall.
Does Termy store my screenshots?
Termy does not store screenshots on our servers. When you save vocabulary, the useful screenshot context stays locally on your computer so you can revisit the scene, rebuild the association, and review it later.
What is the best way to use Termy?
Use it when you almost understand the content, but a few words or phrases get in the way. Get the missing meaning, keep going, and practice saved vocabulary later.
