It's $0.99 and there's no free tier, but it will offer you a 3-day trial period.įull names: Language Learning with Netflix and Language Learning with YouTube. It lacks subtitle export and other features. I must say, I was so attached to Niko's extension that at first I thought LLN was a clone.

After LLN, other extensions seem to have adopted a variation of LLN's keyboard shortcuts. Niko was a trailblazer, so his keyboard shortcuts are not the most intuitive. I only stopped using it because sometimes it failed to load, and LLN/LLY is more feature-rich. (It was $0.99/month) The developer is Japanese, and he's very responsive.

#WETV BE WITH YOU CHINESE DRAMA PRO#
I used to have the Pro version back then and kept paying for it until the pandemic started. Export subtitles as text (so you can load them in Pleco)Īs far as I know, this was the pioneer! It dates back to 2018, and it's the first extension I used seriously for learning Chinese, before LLN/LLY even existed. Hide main subtitles, translations or both, but show them with a keyboard shortcut And if you get tired of all the drama, you can watch teacher Li's fantastic lectures on YouTube (with multilanguage subtitles) on pretty much any subject, from economy to science and health. All three sites include text-based subtitles in Chinese and several other languages, and now there's a bunch of browser extensions that take advantage of this for language learning. And if that's not fresh enough for you, you can go to the international versions of Iqiyi (iq.com) and WeTV () to get your drama fix. But how have times changed! Nowadays Netflix keeps adding more and more Chinese dramas, including some pretty new ones. I remember some people in this forum looking for ways to find a text version of their favorite dramas' subtitles in order to use a popup dictionary, because at the time dramas often came only with burned-in or image-based subtitles. Nowadays there's a LOT of options if you want to watch Chinese movies/TV shows with the purpose of learning Chinese.īack in 2017, when I created this post, there was almost no watchable Chinese content on Netflix, and Chinese video services were slow outside of China.
