This is a small project i made years ago and updated to whisper last year, i still use it from time to time and thought it might be useful to others, or just put the idea out there for someone better than me to make a better implementation!

Show HN: Wunderbar – Learn language while working on your Mac

Hey everyone, I've been living in Germany for a while now and struggling to pick up German. Even though I finished a B1 level language course, remembering all the common German words has been tough. I've tried a bunch of apps, but couldn't stick to any of them. Last month, I had an idea. I thought, what if I could see a German word and its meaning on the Menu Bar of my Mac? That way, I could learn new words while working without needing to set aside dedicated time. The app uses a spaced-repetition algorithm, so you'll see the same word multiple times until you've got it down. And even after you've learned it, you'll still see it again to make sure you don't forget. After making the app, lots of people asked me to include other languages, therefore I’ve added languages like Spanish, French, Dutch, Swedish, Japanese, and Italian. You can download the app here ($3.99): https://ift.tt/m0x4pd7 There's no subscription or anything like that. You pay once and it's yours forever. Let me know what you think!
