mig (миг, russian for "an instant") is a russian learning app built around short, focused practice. read at speed, match pairs, rebuild a word from scrambled letters, drill noun cases, put a sentence in order, fill the gap. a few minutes at a time, on your device.

a growing library of curated vocabulary across a1, a2, and b1 levels: family, food, transport, weather, emotions, technology, abstract concepts, and more. grammar practice is organized the same way, by level, so you build from where you are.

one word, many angles

seeing a word once rarely makes it stick. mig comes at it from several directions: recognize it at speed, recall it from english, rebuild it from its letters, place it in a sentence. every mode feeds a single mastery score per word, so the app tracks what you know and surfaces what still needs work.

practice modes

• flash reading, from 50 to 1000 words per minute
• vocabulary pairs and anagram (анаграмма)
• noun cases (падежи)
• word order (порядок)
• fill in the blank, and proverbs

roadmap

shipping now, with a path for what comes next. the later stages are still being explored.

about

mig is built by devin dyson, a graduate student at boston university who started learning russian and wanted a tool that didn't exist. it's free, ad-free, and tracks nothing.
