## What is Sensonym?

You won't memorize these words. You'll live them.

Master Korean, Japanese, Spanish, Mandarin Chinese, French, German, Turkish, Indonesian, Malay, or English by moving your body. Shake. Tilt. Blow. Smile. Walk. In Sensonym, every word is a physical action your muscles remember, woven into a cinematic story you play through.

READ IN THE LANGUAGE YOU'RE LEARNING

Read the whole story in the language you're learning, scene by scene, not just the individual words. When a passage gets too steep, switch back to your app language from the top bar without losing your place. Pick a default under Story language in Settings, or decide at the start of each story.

WHY IT WORKS

Vocabulary you act out lives in your body, not on a flashcard. Physical movement builds memory in ways that tapping and swiping can't. Sensonym turns your phone's sensors into memory anchors, so the word you tilted to reach, or smiled to unlock, comes back when you need it.

CINEMATIC STORIES

Every word is part of the plot. Start any story free.

• THROUGH THE FLOOR: Seoul. An idol whose voice keeps failing is rebuilt, in secret, by the deaf man who cleans the practice rooms. Feel the beat through the floor. Hum a melody back to life.
• TWO PASSENGERS: A night train through the snow. She asked you to watch her bag, and the crew swears she never boarded. Knock a code. Keep a coffee cup steady.
• POLARIS: Alone in a frozen station above the Arctic, descend toward a signal beneath the ice. Tilt to navigate, wipe frost from the glass, tune a broken radio.
• THE COURIER: Berlin, 1963. Carry a dead handler's secret across the Wall, and learn who to trust. Hold the phone to your ear for whispered intel. Crack a safe by feel.
• BOSPHORUS BLUE: Istanbul. Document a condemned house on the water, and the secret its caretaker guards. A slow-burn drama with a word in every scene.
• FIRST WORDS: Wake on an unknown shore and learn your first words to survive and be welcomed. Smile to be trusted. Walk to explore.
• More stories added regularly.

LEARN BY MOVING

40+ unique sensor interactions, including:
• Shake your phone to break free
• Bring it to your ear for a whispered secret
• Blow gently to clear smoke from the writing
• Tilt to navigate ice fields and alleyways
• Smile at the camera to earn someone's trust
• Lay the phone flat to feel a rhythm through the floor
• Wipe away frost to reveal a hidden word
• Walk to move through a scene
• Cover the sensor to hide in the dark
• And dozens more

At the end of each chapter, a quick review locks in the words you just learned.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.6.0 — 2026-08-16

The app in your language. The story in the one you're learning.

• Sensonym's interface now speaks eight more languages: Spanish, Turkish, French, Korean, Japanese, Chinese, Malay and Indonesian, alongside English and German.
• Read any story in the language you're learning, scene by scene, not just the words. When a passage gets too steep, switch back to your app language from the top bar without losing your place.

Start any story free. Move your body, learn the words.

### 1.5.5 — 2026-08-08

Turn the sound on. This update rebuilds how Sensonym sounds and feels.

• Every word is spoken by a natural voice, tuned to the same volume across all 10 languages.
• Every story has its own new soundtrack, mixed so the music carries the mood while the words stay clear.
• Gentle piano notes celebrate revealed words, correct answers and finished chapters.
• The Sensonym logo comes alive: it welcomes you, sits at the heart of every gesture and celebrates with you.
• Smoother animations throughout.

Start any story free. Move your body, learn the words.

### 1.5.4 — 2026-07-10

Every noun now shows its article.

If you are learning German, Spanish, or French, new nouns now appear with their article (der, die, das / el, la / le, la, l'). You learn a word's gender the moment you meet it, instead of looking it up later.

Thank you for every review and email. They tell me what to build next.

### 1.5.3 — 2026-07-08

A new story pulls into the station: Two Passengers, a mystery on a snowbound night train. A stranger asks you to watch her bag, then the crew swears she never boarded.

Knock a code, wipe frost from the glass, keep a coffee cup steady: 14 gestures teach 40 words you'll actually use.

Move your body, learn the words.

### 1.5.2 — 2026-07-02

In this update, I've trimmed the stories so they read faster, simplified how highlighted words reveal, and added a meter that shows each story's level at a glance. Thanks for learning with me!
