Introduction to English Learner's Companion

English Learner's Companion is a tool designed to assist non-native English speakers, particularly Japanese learners, in understanding and mastering English vocabulary. It offers layered explanations of words, ranging from basic (CEFR A2) to advanced (CEFR C1) levels, making it suitable for users at various stages of learning. Each entry includes simple definitions, nuanced meanings, pronunciation guides, parts of speech, translations into multiple languages (Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Spanish), word origins, memory tips, related words, and synonyms. For example, a user might look up 'ambition' and find not only a clear definition but also related words like 'ambitious,' and tips on remembering the word through its Latin roots. These functions provide a rich, multi-dimensional understanding of English words, helping learners engage deeply with vocabulary.
