Watch, translate and save - without leaving the player
Open any video from Yalango's curated library or paste a YouTube URL of your own. A translate panel opens beside the player so you can look up words without leaving the video.
Type any word or phrase you heard in the video and Yalango translates it instantly. Add it to your list, then save the queued words into a spaced-repetition flashcard deck. Your watch progress is tied to that video so you can resume later exactly where you stopped.
Watch the content you actually enjoy
Immersion works best when you love what you are watching. Yalango Watch works with any YouTube video - use the curated library or bring your own link.
Browse curated videos by language, channel and duration - or paste any YouTube URL to open it with the full side panel.
Open Yalango WatchThree tools built for active watching
Passive watching is comfortable but slow. The Yalango side panel keeps you active without breaking the flow of the video.
Translate tab
Type any word or phrase from the video and get an instant translation between your source and target language. Every translation is timestamped so you know exactly when you heard it.
Save to deck
Add translations to a short list while you watch, then save them to a spaced-repetition flashcard deck when you are ready so you review them at the right time.
Timestamped Notes
Write notes while the video is playing and insert the current timestamp with one click. Copy your whole session to paste into your notebook or share with your tutor.

Frequently asked questions
What is Yalango Watch?
Yalango Watch is a YouTube-integrated language learning tool. You open any video - from our curated library or by pasting your own URL - and a side panel lets you translate words, queue them, and save them to a flashcard deck right beside the player.
Is Yalango Watch free?
Yes. The core Watch experience - translate, save words to decks, watch history and resume progress - is free on every Yalango account. No credit card needed.
Do I need subtitles on the video to use it?
No. The translate panel is a free-text box, not subtitle-based. Just type any word or phrase you heard and Yalango translates it instantly. It works with any video regardless of whether subtitles are available.
Can I watch my own YouTube videos, not just the curated list?
Yes. Paste any YouTube URL or video ID into the import field on the Watch page and Yalango opens it in the Watch player with the full side panel. Your imported videos are saved to your account so you can resume them later.
Which languages are supported?
Yalango supports over 180 languages for translation. You set your source and target language in your profile and every translation in Watch flows between those two languages automatically.
How does saving words to a flashcard deck work?
When you translate a word, add it to your list. When you are ready, choose a deck and save the queued words in one go. From there, spaced-repetition scheduling decides when you review them next - just like Anki, but built into the same app you watch with.
