All the German you need for B1 — in one app 80 topics. 3,147 words. 1,007 sentences to translate. 3,567 exercises. And every single one is spoken by a real human voice: 10,746 recordings, over five hours of speech — offline, anywhere. We put in one place what usually costs you three separate subscriptions. Translate a sentence — and get it taken apart. Not a red cross, but an explanation: word order, articles, endings, verb forms, the whole grammar, word by word. Said it your own way but got it right? It counts — because one thought can be put into German in more ways than one. Flashcards that remember for you. A word comes back after one day, three, seven, fourteen, thirty — exactly when you start to forget it. Grammar without the fog. The rule in plain words, a full conjugation table for all six persons, articles colour-coded: der blue, die orange, das green. The exercise comes right after. Speaking out loud. Listen to the phrase, say it back, the app checks you. Mistakes work for you. Everything you got wrong comes back for review on its own. No sign-up. No subscription. No ads. No internet. Open it and follow the plan. B1 isn't talent. It's 80 topics in order.
