Interspersed among these are cumulative levels reviewing what has been learned earlier (giving a total of 280 levels). • Nouns: Tests your ability to parse and to decline all types of Icelandic nouns. • Pronouns: Tests your ability to decline Icelandic pronouns, masculine, feminine, singular, and plural. • Verbs: Tests your ability to parse and to conjugate all types of Icelandic verbs. A further Reference module allows you to review the vocabulary word-list and the paradigms for nouns, verbs, and pronouns.
Fluency Refrain

Fluency Refrain is a pronunciation app built on one idea: you learn to say a phrase by saying it WITH the voice, not after it. Pick a language, add the phrases you actually want to say, and chorus them: speak in unison with a studio voice, again and again, until the phrase comes up to full speed. Then let review bring each phrase back right before you forget it. CHORUS, DON'T REPEAT Repeating after a recording leaves a gap where your own accent creeps back in. Chorusing closes that gap. You say the phrase at the same time as the voice, matching its rhythm, stress and melody, with a tap-to-adjust gap and tempo so you can start slow and speed up as it sticks. YOUR PHRASES, NOT A SYLLABUS Start from a short seed pack for your goal (first phrases, travel basics, hard-to-pronounce phrases, or expressions worth collecting) and then add anything you like: a line from a show, something a friend said, the sentence you fumbled yesterday. Every phrase gets a studio voice in the language and variety you chose. REVIEW THAT BRINGS PHRASES BACK Spaced review schedules each phrase for the moment it is about to fade. Say it, reveal it, hear it, grade yourself. Phrases you nail come back less often; phrases you miss come back sooner. IDIOMS, PROVERBS AND TONGUE-TWISTERS Checked packs of idioms, proverbs and tongue-twisters for French, Spanish, Italian, Japanese, Korean and Greek, with meanings and references, ready to chorus. More languages on the way. BUILT FOR POLYGLOTS Keep as many languages as you like. Pin up to three as your focus, and the app tells you which language needs you next. Transliteration for non-Latin scripts. Studio voices in 80+ languages and regional varieties. WORKS WITH FLUENCY STREAK Link Fluency Refrain to Fluency Streak and every chorus and review session counts toward your daily language streak automatically.
