Casual and polite forms

Please, add possibility to choose what form you want to learn (what if I don’t need to learn a casual form? Would be cool to be able to turn it on or off in the settings)

Hey Ed, tysm for your review! Glad you’re enjoying Penglo 😊 I hear you on the pricing. Subscriptions help fund Penglo so I can keep the app running and continue improving it :) I’m always here if you have any suggestions or ideas, or just wanna chat: enzo@penglo.app

Cute and effective

A tricky setup, but once it’s up and running it seems to be a great intermediate place to continue once you’ve learned the basics somewhere like Duolingo etc. Awesome for getting over learning plateaus and getting a more in depth look at grammar and kanji meanings.
