Unethical, false advertising of the browser extension as "FREE" lured me into going through the hooplas of installing the product and wasting my time.

I think it's a fun way to learn new vocabulary It helps if you already have a base knowledge of the language you choose.

As someone who speaks three languages and is working on a fourth, this is a great way to pick up quickly without even noticing. This is great!

Review of Toucan
I really like this extension, I'm not that tech savy and it's actually one of the first I've ever used. However I am sad that Russian hasn't been added yet because I am learning Russian. I saw another comment that said it will be added soon but that was 6 months ago. I'm already pretty fluent in French so it's not that helpful so I decided to brush up on some Spanish but it's somewhat of a distraction instead of being helpful with my current focus language. I would love it if it was available in Russian because Russian is not an easy language to learn and this would be a great tool.

Review of Toucan
This is an excellent low-commitment way to pickup and expand vocabulary in a new language if not grammar, and at one's own speed. Highly recommended and nicely executed. I can see a good future for the packs and building in ways to expand learning. The usability could do with a little improvement as for me I want to know how to pronounce upon discovering each new word (and occasionally thereafter), but (on desktop) the mouse contortion to hit the play button each time don't quite take into account Fitt's law. Be better if it was nearer the target. Nice clean and elegant design. Although designers rarely consider brand in the context of usage — should be at the bottom of the bubble otherwise my eye has to track over it every time I check a word, thus breaking the learning absorption flow. Maybe a two element UI above and below the original context would work… The advertising model is really cool, at least if advertisers understand this, as the user is in learning mode so readily open to influence. ;)

Review of Toucan
I'm so busy that I don't have much time to spend on dedicated language learning, especially since the pandemic hit. Toucan weaves vocab practice into my day-to-day computer usage which has been super helpful. I've already seen some great results with vocab retention which feels great because the overall process has been pretty effortless.

Yes! I tried this out and it's pretty cool :) I've been using it to learn Spanish. Can't wait until they add more languages!
