CHAPTER I

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife. However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighbourhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.

Three steps, from a page to a word you own

No word lists, no textbook. The book you already love is the lesson.

  1. 1

    Scan the page

    Hamesh finds the page, reads it on your phone, and marks the words above your level.

  2. 2

    Understand it here

    Each word in Arabic, in the sense this sentence of this book uses: not the first line of a dictionary.

  3. 3

    Keep it

    Short daily reviews, timed by spaced repetition, bring each word back just before you'd forget it.

Quick rounds with the words from your own books, and five of them to send a friend.
