Three new ways to practise — and a library that holds them all. • Expressions. Real idioms, the ones textbooks skip: 64 in every language, across five pages. You see what it means and answer with the expression itself, by typing or by voice, with the idiom shown in a real sentence when you want a hint. • Phrasal verbs. 88 exercises per language: read the sentence, fill the gap, pick the particle that a native would use. • Tongue twisters. 32 lines per language to read aloud. The microphone scores how close you got, and native recordings show you how it should sound. • A library instead of a menu. The home screen now lists every track, with Words in its own home, and "where you left off" takes you straight back to the page and language pair you were on. • Common Words: a 99-word starter category that opens the free trial in every language pair. • Blocks now fills the screen on phones, and the resume panel folds away. • Difficulty says Easy, Medium or Hard instead of a level number. • Hints are on by default, and a typo no longer costs you the word. • A Tongue Master certificate when you finish a language's twisters, and a line bomb for three clean reads in a row. Free trial opens the first line, the first exercise and the first idiom in all 28 languages. Basic unlocks all 896 twisters, all 2,464 phrasal verbs and all 1,792 expressions.
