Abstract: A method and apparatus for displaying dual texts in a manner to facilitate language learning, by presenting a highly visible “study text,” divided into individual units of thought, or “chunks of meaning,” which are preferably formatted in association with less visible units of a “teach text,” provided in proximity, preferably upon a separate focal plane, thus effecting a bitextual, bifocal presentation. The method and apparatus clearly relate the study text and the teach text, associating their individually related chunks of meaning, storing these associations in computer memory, as “.txt” or “Unicode equivalent” files, which, when organized into folders, allow computer programs to access these associations and automatically produce bitextual, preferably bifocal, presentations.
