Natural and Intuitive Way to Learn Spoken Chinese The Serial Course contains months worth of content and is designed to take you from absolute beginner all the way to intermediate level. It starts out with extremely simple sentences and gently builds on that, only introducing new material very gradually. The content is carefully designed so that you are never confronted with a word you don't know. The aim of the course is to give you the essential building blocks for forming practical sentences of your own. It naturally integrates spaced repetition so that as you move forward you are continually revising previous content. Powerful Revision Features Research into language acquisition has shown that repetition of comprehensible content is one of the most effective ways of learning a language. Repetition Training is a core feature of Immersive Chinese that allows you to play a specific selection of content on a continuous loop according to a number of different settings. You can set the specific time delay before and after each sentence, use normal speed or slow recordings, repeat each sentence a certain number of times, and use a random or sequential order. You can also add custom filters, so you only study the exact material you want to. Give it a try and start making progress today.

Learn languages with smart flashcards and real native audio. Every single recording in Recabulary is spoken by a human native speaker. No AI voices, because we prefer to listen to real humans. Recabulary is built on memory science. A spaced repetition algorithm schedules every review right before you would forget, so vocabulary moves into long-term memory with the least possible effort. Our word lists come from real-world frequency data and major exam frameworks like JLPT and HSK, so you always study words that actually matter. One deck per language, designed to be the only flashcard deck you will ever need. We are two friends and language enthusiasts who built the app we always wanted but never found. It isn't perfect yet, but with your feedback we will get there.

REAL NATIVE AUDIO, NO AI VOICES Every word and every example sentence is recorded by a real native speaker, and some languages let you choose between several voices. Not a single recording in the app is AI generated. Learn authentic pronunciation, accent, and speech rhythm from day one. LEARN FOR FREE Recabulary is free to download and free to use. Every core study feature is available without payment, because we do not believe in paywalling the things that matter. Recabulary Premium is nice to have, but you never need it to reach your learning goals. SPACED REPETITION THAT WORKS Built on spaced repetition and active recall, two of the most researched techniques for long-term vocabulary retention. Each flashcard returns at the moment reviewing it helps most, so you stop wasting time on words you already know. AN ALGORITHM YOU CAN ADJUST Most apps hide their algorithm. We let you tune ours. Adjust review intervals and fine-tune the spaced repetition settings until the app fits how you learn, or simply keep our recommended defaults. THE RIGHT WORDS IN THE RIGHT ORDER We build every vocabulary list in three stages. We compare multiple frequency lists to find the words you are most likely to encounter in real life. We cross-reference exam vocabulary such as JLPT, HSK, and equivalent frameworks, so our decks work for everyday learners and exam takers alike. Then we refine everything by hand with language teachers and our community, because some words matter to beginners long before frequency data would suggest them. We keep expanding every deck, with the goal of covering all the vocabulary you need for complete fluency. FOR BEGINNERS AND ADVANCED LEARNERS Start from the alphabet or jump straight into advanced vocabulary. Recabulary meets you where you are.
