Summary

Lingochunk is a new tool that creates Anki flashcards from native‑language audio by extracting words, finding their base forms, and grouping examples by lemma.

The tool supports 15 input languages, including experimental Japanese and Chinese, and more than 30 output languages.

Users can click the first and last word in a transcript to loop a selected audio fragment with the correct gap and repeat count, aiding shadowing practice for pronunciation.

An additional mode lets users select an audio fragment, send a predefined prompt to an AI, and receive explanations of grammar or nuances of meaning.

The app was built to fit the author’s workflow and is available as a web application.

The author is seeking public‑domain audio sources for the try page and invites creators to feature their recordings with credits and links.

Lingochunk offers a unique combination of audio processing, AI‑powered explanations, and Anki integration, making it a useful tool for language learners.

The tool is open for community testing and feedback, and the author encourages users to try it out and provide suggestions.
