PURE LEARNING. Respectful, elegant, ad-free language study from a small independent team. Corpán is the continuous evolution of language learning. OUR PRINCIPLES • Private. No accounts, no tracking, no data collection. Your study stays on your device. • Offline. Your sentence library works without a network. Audio works offline too if you have offline voices installed. Travel, fly, study off-grid. • Quiet. No ads. No nagging notifications. • Curated. Every sentence is hand-picked. Phrases real people actually say, weighted A1–B2 for daily life, travel, and work. • Yours. Set your native language and study from your perspective, not "from English." MANY WAYS TO STUDY, ALL IN ONE APP • Phrase book. Tap any sentence to hear it spoken in clear native voices. Filter by topic and CEFR level. • Audiobooks. Read full books in your target language with sentence-by-sentence narration and instant translation. Free and premium titles. • Pronunciation Coach. Get pronunciation feedback from offline speech-to-text models running entirely on your device. • World Radio. Tune in to live stations from anywhere on the planet — true native streaming, lock-screen controls, background playback. • Games. Recognize Chinese characters with Hanzipan. Run, jump, and learn in 3D with Hover Runner. • And new experiences ship all the time — delivered through Packs, our modular system for adding games, books, readers, and learning modes without bloating the core app. Learn many languages at once, or focus on just one. Switch your primary language any time. Currently practiced in over 50 languages: Arabic, Bengali, Bulgarian, Cantonese (Traditional, Hong Kong), Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Gujarati, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Kannada, Korean, Lithuanian, Malay, Marathi, Nepali, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Punjabi (Gurmukhi), Punjabi (Shahmukhi), Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swahili, Swedish, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Urdu, and Vietnamese.
