Portal teaches you an Indian language the way you learned your first one: by following a story and working out what the words mean from what is happening around them. Ten languages, in your pocket. Bangla, Gujarati, Hindi, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Punjabi, Sanskrit, Tamil, and Telugu. STORIES, NOT DRILLS Portal helps you learn Indian languages through short, real-life scenarios featuring authentic dialogues from native speakers. Instead of relying on repetitive drills and memorisation, you learn by understanding meaning from context, helping you pick up the language more naturally. START WHERE YOU WANT Choose stories from the topics you actually need or find interesting. No locked pathway forcing you through vocabulary you will never use before you reach the words you needed on day one. READ THE SCRIPT A dedicated Reading section. Learn: a structured route through vowels, consonants and signs, opening with an introduction to how the script works and why it is shaped the way it is. Practice: quiz yourself by sound or by letter. Set how many questions you want. Portal tracks your accuracy and helps master weak letters. WRITE THE SCRIPT Portal teaches how to write inside the app, in three stages: 1. The app draws the letter for you, stroke by stroke 2. You trace over it 3. You write it on a blank canvas, and the app tells you whether you got it right Then Practice the letters learned. Portal tracks your accuracy and helps master weak letters. NUMBERS, PHRASES AND GRAMMAR Learn to count in your chosen language, step by step. New sections for basic phrases and basic grammar sit alongside the stories, for anyone who wants a little more scaffolding than pure context can give. SEE YOUR PROGRESS A statistics section with graphs and a skill by skill breakdown, so you know which parts of the language are solid and which ones need work. EARN GEMS Finish a story, collect gems. *SHAPE THE APP Send feedback straight from Settings, suggest new features, and vote on what other learners have asked for. Questions or problems?
