Most apps teach one generic German. Moin teaches the German people actually speak — and lets you choose the accent you want to sound like. Pick from five regional varieties, and every phrase, audio clip, and quiz adapts to it: • Germany — standard Hochdeutsch, understood everywhere • Austrian — Servus, Jänner, das Spital, das Nachtmahl • Swiss — Grüezi, das Billett, Härdöpfel • Bavarian — Servus, Hendl, geh ma! • Northern — Moin, Sonnabend, Tschüss See the real differences side by side: Hähnchen / Hendl / Poulet, Samstag / Sonnabend, Abendessen / Nachtmahl / Nachtessen, Tschüss / Pfiat di / Uf Wiederluege. This is how locals actually talk — not a textbook. WHAT YOU GET • 20 lessons and 200+ essential phrases — greetings, food, travel, family, numbers, directions, shopping, health and more • Clear audio on every phrase, at normal and slow speed • A pronunciation hint under each word, so you always know how to say it • Flashcards with smart spaced repetition that schedules your reviews automatically • Quizzes — multiple choice, listening, and build-the-sentence • Pronunciation scoring — say it out loud and get instant feedback • Daily Coach — a short guided session, sequenced just for you • Goal-based courses — "travel-ready in 7 days," "talk to family," and more • Smart Review and Weak Spots — targets exactly the words you keep missing • Grammar made simple — der/die/das gender, sein vs haben, question words, the present tense • Sounds and spelling — the umlauts (ä ö ü), ß, ch, sch, and the German R • Reading practice, a built-in translator, and a placement test • Streaks, daily reminders, and a progress dashboard to keep you going WORKS ANYWHERE, RESPECTS YOUR PRIVACY Moin is fully offline.

About

Reflexive Verbs Trainer

Features
Read full description

Make German reflexive verbs easier to remember. Each of the 116 verbs has an illustrated scene with a mirror object that reminds you to learn the verb with sich. Practise in two steps: choose the verb that matches the scene, then complete a sentence with the correct reflexive pronoun. Spaced repetition brings verbs back for review and keeps track of your progress. Explore the illustrated verb wall, listen to German pronunciation, and use the compact grammar guide to review reflexive pronouns, Akkusativ and Dativ, word order, and prepositions. Tap German examples for an English translation. All lessons, pictures and audio are included. The app works offline, with no account, ads or in-app purchases. Your progress stays on your device. Made by SmarterGerman. I built this app for my learners, and my full courses take you through all of German from A1 to C1: smartergerman.com
