Learn Spanish the way that actually sticks — a little every day, with lessons you can finish on a coffee break. Lumi turns Spanish into bite-size steps. You start at A1 and climb through 33 structured milestones, each built around real-life situations: greetings, ordering food, the gym, family, shopping and more. Every lesson mixes clear grammar, interactive quizzes and flashcards so the words actually stay in your head. WHY LEARNERS CHOOSE LUMI • Bite-size lessons — most take about 5 minutes. Perfect for busy days. • Learn by doing — multiple-choice and fill-in-the-blank exercises on every screen, not endless reading. • Instant feedback — see your score the moment you finish, then tap "Review your mistakes" to fix exactly what you got wrong. • Flashcards that work — master vocabulary by topic with quick, swipeable card decks and progress tracking. • A clear path — many milestones take you from your first "hola" toward confident, everyday conversation. • Real-life Spanish — learn the phrases you'll actually use, from "un desayuno en mi cocina" to talking about your family. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a topic and start a lesson. 2. Practice with quizzes and flashcards. 3. Check your score and review your mistakes. 4. Keep your streak and unlock the next milestone. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN • Essential grammar: pronouns, verbs, conjugation and sentence building • Everyday vocabulary grouped by real situations • Listening and reading through natural example sentences • The confidence to speak Spanish from day one Download Lumi and turn five minutes a day into real Spanish.

How much do you notice? Get to know your senses with Percore. Four short daily exercises explore color, pitch, timing, and shape, all in about two minutes. FOUR WAYS TO EXPLORE YOUR SENSES • Color — Keep a color in mind, then recreate it. • Pitch — Listen to a tone, then find the same pitch. • Duration — Get a feel for a short interval, then press and hold to match it. • Shape — Keep a shape in mind, then match its position, angle, and size. FOLLOW WHAT CHANGES See how closely each answer matches its target. Track your results over time and discover which senses stand out and how they vary from day to day. EXPLORE AT YOUR OWN PACE Try focused exercises in vision, hearing, timing, and spatial perception. Choose a skill to practice and return to it whenever you feel like it. MAKE THE RITUAL YOUR OWN Training something specific? Choose any four of seventeen modules to be your daily, in the order you like — Pitch, Rhythm, Timbre and Duration for your ear, or whatever your practice needs. Your ritual is measured every day, just like the original four. A SMALL PART OF YOUR DAY Four daily exercises, with a clear finish. No long sessions or complicated routines. Make a little room to notice more. Some features and practice modules require Percore Pro.
