Conversation, speaking, listening and writing practice

Open Practise to see them all: Talk now for a conversation, Speak, Listen, Write and Review words, with Exam prep, Translate, My words and Live tutors underneath.

Conversation

Pick a topic (greetings, weather, travel, exams, politics, news and more) and who you want to talk with, then speak or type. Every topic works at every level: your partner speaks at yours.

Under everything you say you see what you meant, in your own language, and three buttons:

• 🔊 What you said: your words read back.
• 🔊 How to say it: the corrected version.
• 🔊 What you meant: the meaning, in your language.

Tap ⏸ Pause any time and ▶ Continue later: the conversation is saved. Tap End & get report for an estimate of your level and what to work on.

Short on ideas? Your home page suggests today's chat: a new everyday topic each day, one tap to start.

Voice mode: talk hands-free. Speak, pause to send, and your tutor answers aloud. Talk over it to interrupt.

Repeat after me

Listen, then say it. You see which words came through clearly, which were unclear and which were missing. It checks words, not your accent. Sounds to watch under the exercise lists the sounds speakers of your first language often find hard.

Look it up

Next to words, phrases and tutor replies, tap Look it up to open YouTube, Google, Wiktionary or Forvo in one tap.

Listening

Short dialogues, announcements and interviews at your level, with the transcript hidden until you've answered.

Writing

Write a short text for a real situation. You get each correction explained, an improved version and an estimated level.

Translate

Type, snap a photo or speak, and get the translation read aloud: see "Translate tools".

Tips for you

Set your first language to see where it helps and where it trips you up. For example, Telugu and Hindi speakers can use their own dental t and d for French.
