I'm Ruiyang, the solo founder behind Belletra an app that teaches you a language through one sentence of great literature per day.
Instead of flashcards and streaks, you get a line from Verlaine, Hugo, or Villon taken apart word by word, with etymology, grammar, and the literary insight behind why that writer chose that exact phrasing.
We launch Thursday July 24th. Would love any feedback or questions before then.
One sentence of great literature per day, taken apart word by word. Etymology, grammar, the precise reason writers reached for these words — not the language that merely gets you by.
Belletra opens with French. More languages coming soon.
