About

Learn Spanish, French and German from the videos native speakers actually watch. Puku turns real videos - vlogs, comedy, podcasts, street interviews and everyday conversations - into short clips made for learners. Every clip has captions in the language you are learning, an English translation and a tap-to-understand dictionary, so you can follow real speech from your very first day. THREE LANGUAGES, ONE APP Pick Spanish, French or German and switch any time. One subscription covers all three. WATCH AT YOUR LEVEL Puku sorts every clip by how fast people actually speak, from slow and clear beginner speech up to native speed. Pick your level (A1 to C2) and your feed fills with videos you can follow - then grows with you. TAP ANY WORD Don't know a word? Tap it. The video pauses and a card shows what it means, its gender (el/la, le/la, der/die/das), its level and an example sentence - without leaving the clip. SUBTITLES THAT FOLLOW ALONG Each word lights up as it is spoken, with the English translation underneath. Replay a line, or slow the video down until it clicks. It is immersion with a safety net: real listening practice without getting lost. WORDS THAT STICK Save words as you watch and review them later as flashcards with spaced repetition, next to the clip you found them in. Your vocabulary grows from real speech, not textbook lists. A FEED THAT KNOWS YOU Tell Puku why you are learning - travel, work, an exam, moving abroad or just for fun - and your feed leans toward the topics you like. The clips you save shape what comes next. BUILD A HABIT Set a daily goal and keep your streak going, a few minutes at a time. Short clips fit into any day. Made by a learner who took German all the way to C2, and wished real speech had been this easy to get into in every language. PUKU PRO Puku is a subscription.
