Stop memorizing new languages and start thinking in them. Language Soup is the first language app that trains your brain how to think in another language and culture. Listen, speak and learn with friends! Listening: Language Soup is based on a method called comprehensible input. In short, when you listen to a lot of content at or above your level, your brain starts to think in a new language (just like how babies learn!) How to listen: Check out top shows from our users. Select a show. Listen for as long as you would like (start with at least 5 min a day!). Record your session. Compete with others on the leaderboard. Tip! You are going to need a LOT of hours of listening to work your way to fluency and daily practice is better than random long bursts! Speaking: Afraid to speak? Don't worry! Everyone gets nervous to speak in a new language! Language Soup encourages speaking from day 1. Yes day 1! With our easy and hard speaking prompts, users can record voice memos and get instant feedback on small things to improve. How to speak: Open the "speak" button, select an "easy" or "hard" prompt. Click record, don't think just speak for at least a minute! Use filler words, try your best to just fill the time by saying as much as you can or repeating the prompt several times. Save your recording, look at the feedback and listen to other learners! Community: Learning is BORING alone so we made this app to create micro language communities! With the community section, you have your own forum to ask users questions. What's the best comedy podcast for Hungarian right now? Ask! Have a favorite hack for learning tones in Mandarin? Post! Want to make a weekly call for beginners to go deeper? Post! Language Soup is a ground breaking language learning app. Please reach out to noah@language-soup.com if you would like to learn more.
