About this app

You know the basic words, but longer texts still feel hard — and the right words still don't come when you need them in conversation. Distinction 2000 is an English learning app that helps you turn the words you already know into reading ability and real conversation. It combines academic English and practical everyday English in one balanced learning experience. Instead of stiff textbook sentences, it teaches core vocabulary through natural, practical examples created with ten native speakers. Includes 2,000 headwords, 6,554 total entries including related words and idioms, 2,442 example sentences, 40 academic reading topics, and 40 snapshot topics. It helps you build not only vocabulary, but also the background knowledge that makes reading, listening, and communication easier. 【What makes Distinction 2000 different】 • 2,000 essential words for building a stronger English foundation • 6,554 total entries including derivatives, related words, and idioms • 2,442 practical example sentences created with 10 native speakers • Natural and slow audio for every word and sentence • 40 academic reading topics to strengthen reading comprehension • 40 snapshot topics covering everyday conversation and wider world knowledge • Countable/uncountable labels for all nouns • IPA phonetic symbols for main entries, including related forms • Fully offline once downloaded — study on your commute, on flights, or abroad without using mobile data 【App features】 • Study Mode based on spaced repetition and active recall • Personalised study plans based on your time and goals • Automatic review of weaker items • Fast search across headwords, example sentences, and explanations • Speech recognition for pronunciation practice (main entries only) • Audio filters, autoplay, and shuffle • Progress tracking with graphs and statistics • Streaks, levels, XP, and completion certificates 【Pricing】 • Free to try — first chapter included • One-time purchase, no subscription • No external ads
