Wordaboo
Read full descriptionHide full description
Wordaboo is a language app built around short lessons. Each one takes about four minutes, so it fits into a coffee break. Grammar is explained in the language you already speak. If you speak English and you're learning French, the notes compare French with English. If you speak Russian and you're learning English, they compare English with Russian. What trips you up depends on where you start, so every language pair gets its own explanations. Courses For English speakers: French, Spanish, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, Russian, Arabic, Mandarin Chinese and Uzbek. English for speakers of Spanish, Portuguese, French, Russian, Turkish, Indonesian, Hindi, Arabic, Chinese, German, Italian, Japanese, Urdu, Bengali and Uzbek. Some pairs between other languages too, such as French for Spanish speakers or German for Russian speakers. Every course goes from your first words to C2. Japanese starts with hiragana, Russian with the alphabet, Arabic with its letters, and Chinese with pinyin and tones. If you already know some, a short placement test puts you at the right level. Also in the app โข Illustrated stories to read and listen to, with questions along the way โข Roleplay conversations, from ordering at a bakery to a job interview โข A chat partner that runs on your phone (AI, in beta, on some courses and newer phones) โข Live 1v1 word games against friends or anyone, and a weekly league โข Practice for the sounds your own language blurs together โข A grammar book with every explanation you have reached You can use the app in 16 languages. Wordaboo is free. Premium is optional: it removes ads, gives you unlimited hearts and bubbles, and lets you take lessons offline. There are no third-party analytics in the app. Friends stays off until you turn it on, and you can delete your account from inside the app. Questions: support@wordaboo.app Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://wordaboo.app/privacy
