Chaos
There’s no way to learn anything. Form far exceeds the content. It’s impossible to navigate the lessons, the translations are for individual words, while they don’t make any sense as a whole. There’s no way to both hear the sentence and see what it means. Such a waste of time and money.
Glitch and mispronunciation
It does not allow me to select the words that are new to me at the end of each lesson. No matter what I select (1. New 2. Recognized…etc) nothing changes and the only way to move forward is to agree that I know all of the words.
Also, in the lesson about Alan Turing, she mispronounces his name every time as Alan TurNing.

Really happy!
Great components for language learning!
unique and uniquely useful
This app is so useful for language learning. I do have criticisms, e.g., th user interface is confusing and at first overwhelming, i wish it were easier to import whole books and that it were easier to choose the kinds of practice exercises to use. But on the whole this is such a hugely valuable tool.

Incorrect Translations
Amazing app but it’s hard to learn a bit bc the english translation is very off in some things like a song said “te comías mis moras” and translated it to “u ate my blackberries” which is wrong bc “comías” refers to something that has happened or is a memory from the past so it would be “you used to eat my berries” and “you ate my berries is “te comiste mis moras” very different “comías” vs “comiste” that is just one example i caught among many so yeah english translation is very off in a lot of the translations it’s actually kinda bad bc it just makes it harder to learn without accurate translations.

This program rocks
I’ve learned a tiny bit of Spanish over the last 40 year. In the last few months of looking at your program though I’d say I’ve gone from beginner to intermediate. Quite remarkable!

Thanks for your fantastic review! We're happy LingQ is helping you with your language learning goals.
Mr.
There comes a time when learning when it is necessary to ask questions that only a real person can answer and there is no facility here that I can see where this can be done.
The very first question I would ask is , Are your lessons based on The Spanish spoken in , Mexico, Cuba , South America , Spain or somewhere else?
I would not commit to a coarse of lessons without knowing this.

Worth every penny
I never pay for apps but this one has been well worth the $15 a month subscription.

My Favorite App

Amazing! Thank you for the review and happy LingQing :)
Génial
L’appli est vraiment bien pour apprendre qu’on soit débutant intermédiaire ou expert. Vraiment génial, on peut progresser à son rythme, elle nous propose des petites histoires des vidéos. C’est bien parce que l’applicationne nous oblige pas à avoir le code premium mais si vous voulez l’avoir il ne coûte pas très cher, il n’y a pas de pub et même sans code premium on peut très bien travailler et apprendre facilement on est limité à 20 mots mais ça s’apprend très rapidement. On a des petites notifications mais ça nous bombarde pas. Il n’y a pas de sonnerie. Donc parfait si on souhaite ne pas être dérangé on choisi le temps qu’on veut passer à travailler

Stories with SPR
It’s really a collection of simple stories with space repetition to help you remember the new vocabulary encountered in the stories. It’s based around the comprehensible input theory of language learning.
Takes a little getting used to at first, but once you get familiar with the way the program works, it’s really pretty good and quite enjoyable.
Probably not enough on its own to learn a language for example you might lead a teacher to practice speaking with as well. Mind you, you probably only want to engage your teacher once you have enough vocabulary to actually hold a conversation about something.

An amazing app/website!
The difference between this and Duolingo is night and day. LingQ in an supura tool for language learning—it’s like language immersion in your pocket.
Duo relies on force—essentially guilting you into language learning. LingQ is for those who know they want to learn already and are imbibe the language as much as possible through heavy exposure.

Dear user, thank you very much for sharing your valuable & useful feedback. We’re glad you’re enjoying LingQ!
Sehr hilfreich
Man kommt etwas schwierig rein, man muss neben der Sprache auch erst den Aufbau des Kurses erlernen. Aber wenn man erst mal drin ist …..
Kostenfreie Version unbrauchbar
Im Gegensatz zu anderen Sprachlern-Apps ist LingQ ohne monatliches Abo für 13,99 € unbrauchbar. Man kann einmalig 20 Vokabeln einspeichern und selbst wenn man welche wieder löscht, kann man ab dann nicht einmal mehr neue Vokabeln nachschlagen. Stattdessen erhält man eine Meldung, dass man Premium kaufen soll.

I really wanted to like this app!!
It has great tools to help someone learn Castilian Spanish, but not from Latin America/Mexico. It does seem like it has some breakdown, but not enough. If you want Castilian Spanish, this is a great app! Otherwise, not so much. If the creators added more Latin American Spanish words, I would 100% subscribe again!

Thanks for your great review and for the feedback. We offer a filter for European and Latin American Spanish, over time we should increase the amount of filters. Stay tuned! If you have any other questions, email me at tiagor@lingq.com
Amazing resource
I have used many language learning apps and programs. This is one of my favorites. There are so many interesting articles and resources to practice my listening and increase my vocabulary.

This is the way...
This is an excellent way to learn. You probably need a very basic level in your target language. Lingq is full of resources, inspiration, and aids. Kaufmann is an inspiration. You should also check out Krashen if you are interested in the methodology. Basically a learner cannot realistically learn grammar. Instead, you can read and listen to fun material and the grammar and vocabulary will start to seem obvious, second natural and comprehensible. I love this approach. I have tried before and failed. I am succeeding now.
