I

It doesn't make it boring to learn is actually nice and love it
𝙴𝙴𝚕𝚊𝚗𝚊

Muy fantástico

This app has become a favorite of mine to learn Spanish on. My only concern is I truly feel like the best way to learn a new language is through full immersion. NO ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS just photos or videos and words in the language you’re trying to learn. Seeing English makes you want to translate in your head before you speak. Repeating the words in your intended language even if you don’t know what you’re saying will help bridge the gaps in your understanding as you continue to interact with the language in other contexts. I honestly wish I could turn the English off and only have Spanish on this app but besides that this is a great app. Please introduce more African languages! I am currently learning Amharic and this app would help a lot.
