English and French word alignment

See how “Hello world” maps to “Bonjour le monde” word by word — a simple bilingual alignment diagram for learners and teachers.

This example shows the most common use case: two parallel sentences where most words have a clear one-to-one match. “Hello” aligns with “Bonjour”, and “world” with “le monde” — including the case where one English word corresponds to two French tokens.

Use it as a template for classroom handouts, blog posts, or quick vocabulary notes. Open it in the editor to change the languages, add a gloss line, or export PNG or SVG.
