TL;DR: Learn a new language from movies you love. That's really all you need to know…but If you have time to waste reading a characteristically lengthy app description designed for search optimization then, by all means, continue reading. Our bigtech overlords want to make sure you understand what's going to happen after you download our language learning app. So let's be abundantly clear. With our Nonsense you WILL NOT: • Get fluent in 30 days • Unscramble sentences • Get "easy" language examples • Increase your test scores in just 10 hours • Be harassed by colorful birds • Learn how to order coffee* What you WILL do is: • Immerse in Hollywood movie scenes • Understand words and grammar with in-context explanations • Hear many different voices and ways of saying things • Learn how native speakers actually use the language • Remember what you learn forever • Be able to quote Shrek in foreign language Learn 39 languages for free from your favorite movies: English, Spanish (Latin America), Spanish (Spain), French, German, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Russian, Chinese (Simplified), Italian, Japanese, Korean, Czech, Polish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Swedish, Danish, Dutch, Norwegian, Slovak, Greek, Romanian, Croatian, Bulgarian, Slovenian, Lithuanian, Serbian, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Georgian, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Urdu, Thai, Farsi, Hebrew and Arabic.

You're bound to get a coffee ordering scene at some point. Make sure you sign up for push notifications if you want to stay in the loop for new movie and feature drops.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Lingual AI at none against Nonsense's shown. Lingual AI also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and update cadence (every 6 days vs every 4 weeks). Nonsense's advantage is ratings volume (404 vs 1). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

CostPrice · In-app purchases · Ads · Monetization

Both are free to download. Nonsense sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month and Lingual AI sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Lingual AI holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Nonsense has 404 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Nonsense ships an update every 4 weeks, Lingual AI every 6 days. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
