Real-time English expressions
As you type in Chinese, Keysake shows corresponding English expressions alongside the input, so translation and phrasing suggestions appear in the writing context.
Keysake
Freemium
Keysake is a Mac input method for Chinese speakers learning English. It shows relevant English expressions alongside Chinese text as you type and lets you save language from your own messages and notes for later review.
什么是 Keysake？
Keysake is a Mac input method for learning English through Chinese-language typing. It displays relevant English expressions alongside Chinese input in real time, allowing users to see possible ways to express what they are already writing without leaving their typing flow. Users can save words, phrases, or complete sentences and revisit them with explanations of sentence structure and grammar. The current focus is Chinese input to English learning; the site says English input, Japanese, Korean, and more languages are planned.
Keysake 能做什么？
Sentence capture with the space bar
Double-tap the space bar after finishing a sentence to have Keysake recognize and save the full sentence for later learning.
Word and phrase saving
Hover over an individual word or phrase, right-click, and choose Save to add a smaller language unit to your collection.
Personal learning collection
Saved words, phrases, and sentences are collected from the user’s own messages and notes, preserving the context in which each expression was written.
Grammar and sentence-structure explanations
Saved material can be reviewed with explanations of sentence structure and grammar, including roles such as subject, predicate, and object and the meaning of individual expressions.
On-device translation
The product uses Apple’s on-device translation technology to generate English translations locally on the Mac, according to the site’s privacy FAQ.
使用场景
“Writing everyday messages in Chinese”
Type a message as usual and use the accompanying English expressions to discover how the same idea can be phrased in English without interrupting the conversation to search separately.
“Drafting notes or emails”
Use personal notes and email drafts as source material for collecting useful expressions that are connected to real writing needs rather than a generic vocabulary list.
“Saving a complete sentence for review”
When a sentence contains a useful pattern, double-tap the space bar to save it as a unit and return to its structure and grammar later.
“Studying a specific phrase or word”
Save an individual word or phrase from the current text when the smaller expression is more useful for future writing than the entire sentence.
