Finally speak your family's language. Kabyle, Algerian or Moroccan Darija, Riffian, Chaoui, Tachelhit, Tunisian, Wolof, Creole... Dialect helps you learn the language of your parents and grandparents, one word at a time, a few minutes a day. Do you know how to say "I love you" to your grandmother in her language? If you grew up far from your family's country, you know the feeling: everyone talks around the table, you smile along... but you can't really answer. Dialect is built to close that gap. 22 LANGUAGES SCHOOLS DON'T TEACH • Berber (Amazigh, Tamazight) languages: Kabyle, Chaoui, Riffian (Tarifit) and Tachelhit (Shilha) • Algerian Darija, Moroccan Darija (Moroccan Arabic) and Tunisian Arabic • Wolof, Fula (Pulaar), Bambara, Lingala and Malagasy • Guadeloupean, Martinican, Réunion and Haitian Creole • Kurdish, Turkish, Tamil and Vietnamese • Breton and Ancient Egyptian Whether you want to learn Kabyle to talk with your grandmother, learn Moroccan Arabic before the summer, or learn the Wolof or Creole your parents speak, you start with everyday words: greetings, thanks, family, home, food. REAL NATIVE VOICES* For ten languages*, every word is recorded by someone who grew up speaking it, so you hear the language the way it sounds at home. Most other languages have audio too. *Algerian and Moroccan Darija, Kabyle, Chaoui, Riffian, Tachelhit, Tunisian, Wolof, Kurdish and Guadeloupean Creole. A GUIDED PATH WITH TIPO Short lessons in the right order, with TIPO, Dialect's mascot, by your side.
