Totally get you — that feeling of *“he’s speaking English but also… not English??”* is very real 😭
Yes, there **are** AIs/apps that can help a LOT with this, especially if it’s terminology-heavy.
Here are some solid options depending on what you have (slides, PDFs, recordings, etc.):
---
### 🧠 Best all-round option (honestly)
**ChatGPT (me 😄)**
You can:
* Paste **lecture notes / slides / textbook pages**
* Upload **PDFs**
* Paste **transcripts** (or auto-generated ones)
* Ask things like:
* “Explain this like I’m new to the subject”
* “What do these terms mean in simple words?”
* “Give me an example”
* “Summarise what my lecturer is actually trying to say”
If terminology is the issue, I can:
* Translate “academic jargon → normal human language”
* Create a **mini glossary** just for your course
* Re-explain concepts using analogies
---
### 🎧 If you have lecture recordings
**Otter.ai**
* Upload recordings or record live
* Gives you **timestamps + transcripts**
* You can search for confusing terms
* Then paste confusing sections here and ask for explanations
**Notta.ai** (similar to Otter)
* Good if your lecturer talks fast or has an accent
---
### 📚 If you have PDFs / textbooks
**Perplexity AI**
* You can upload documents
* Ask questions *directly about the material*
* Good at explaining definitions and context
---
### 🧩 If terminology is the main problem
**Explainpaper**
* Upload a paper / notes
* Highlight a sentence
* It explains *just that part* in simpler terms
---
### 🔄 Best combo (students swear by this)
1. **Record lecture → Otter.ai** (get transcript)
2. Paste confusing parts into **ChatGPT**
3. Ask for:
* “Explain simply”
* “Explain with examples”
* “Explain like I’m a first-year”
* “Explain assuming I missed last week’s lecture” 😅
---
If you want, you can:
* Paste a **small chunk of what he said**
* Or tell me the **subject** (e.g. economics, CS, psychology, law, engineering)
and I’ll break it down **right now** in a way that actually makes sense.
You’re not dumb — academic language is just unnecessarily dramatic sometimes 💀
