Remember the Spanish you learn. New words and grammar come back in a daily review until they stick. Set a daily word goal and follow a guided grammar path. New words and grammar topics feed one daily review, and your answers shape what comes back: difficult material returns sooner, while material you know well gets more time between reviews. DAILY REVIEW FOR VOCABULARY AND GRAMMAR New vocabulary and completed grammar topics get their own review schedules in the same daily routine, so practice continues beyond your first encounter. Review vocabulary in both directions, from understanding Spanish to recalling it yourself. WORDS IN CONTEXT Explore 6,300+ built-in words with 18,900+ bilingual examples. See how words work in different sentences and browse themed lists. Search in Spanish or English when you want to look something up. HEAR HOW IT SOUNDS Play pronunciation audio for 11,000+ built-in words, verb forms, and grammar answers, so you learn how Spanish sounds as well as how it's spelled. GRAMMAR PRACTICE WITH EXPLANATIONS Work through 70 guided drills across 15 units, from ser and estar to past tenses, commands, the subjunctive, and si-clauses. Practice conjugating verbs and choosing grammar that fits the sentence. Answer explanations help you understand why a form fits and learn from mistakes. Open a concise Quick guide when you need a refresher. PRACTICE WHAT NEEDS ATTENTION Choose vocabulary, grammar, or conjugation for extra practice. Track your learning and review activity, and see which material is going strong. With CocoDrilo Pro, repeated misses in Daily Review can become a personalized Focus session. Use your recent review history to work on words and grammar that need more attention. BRING YOUR OWN VOCABULARY With CocoDrilo Pro, create personal lists, add words, or import vocabulary from pasted text or CSV, TSV, and plain-text files. Bring material from a class, tutor, or your own reading into the same learning and review routine. Preview your import and check for existing words before adding it. COCODRILO PRO Pro adds personal vocabulary and import, detailed insights into what needs attention, personalized Focus practice, higher daily goals, optional extra review, and more control over practice sessions and grammar settings. Whether you're starting Spanish or returning to it, give what you learn a place in your daily routine.

LangoVid gets you fluent by watching an endless feed of bite-sized video clips right at your level, so learning feels like scrolling — not studying. No drills, no grammar tables. Watch a 15-second clip, answer a quick quiz, scroll to the next. That's it. The feed keeps rolling — and so does your progress. Learn Spanish, French, Italian, German, Japanese, Korean, Turkish or Hindi — more languages coming soon. THE LANGOVID METHOD — WHY IT WORKS LangoVid is built on comprehensible input. Decades of research point to the same conclusion: we pick up languages through exposure to speech we can actually follow — much the way children absorb their mother tongue — not by memorizing rules and conjugation tables. Every clip features natural, realistic speech in everyday situations. Because you understand what you're watching, the language sinks in on its own — vocabulary, grammar, and pronunciation absorbed in context, one clip at a time. A FEED THAT ADAPTS TO YOU The quick quiz after each clip does more than lock in what you learned — it tells LangoVid exactly what you understand. The feed uses that to keep serving clips in your sweet spot: easy enough to follow, fresh enough to keep you hooked. All videos are AI-generated, which means endless variety — new scenes, voices, topics, and stories every day, tailored to your level and your interests. HOW IT WORKS • Watch a bite-sized clip — around 15 seconds • Read along with subtitles, and tap any word to see what it means • Answer a quick quiz to check your understanding • Swipe to the next one — the feed adapts as you go No prep, no setup, no planning your study session. Just open the app and immerse yourself — LangoVid fits into any spare minute of your day. YOUR VOCAB, FROM YOUR CLIPS Hear a word worth keeping? Save it straight from the subtitles or the quiz. LangoVid turns your saved words into flashcards and brings each one back just before you would forget it, using spaced repetition. Every card is a word you met in a real scene, not on a list. LANGUAGES Spanish, French, Italian, German, Japanese, Korean, Turkish and Hindi, all with subtitles and translations. Japanese clips include furigana, and tapping a word shows its hiragana reading; Korean and Hindi clips show romanized transliterations, so you can follow along from your very first clip. LangoVid also comes in Spanish, Portuguese, French and German, with every translation in that language. FREE TO START Your first clips every day are free. Subscribe for the unlimited feed and keep your streak going. Cancel anytime. Press play. Understand. Get fluent.
