This is a new type of language learning app that focuses on developing explanatory skills.
Many language learners face a common obstacle: being able to hold basic conversations but not being able to engage in deeper discussions. You may be able to greet people and hold everyday conversations, but it's difficult to describe your hometown in detail, talk about the appeal of your favorite movies, or speak passionately about your dreams for the future. Katari was designed to help you overcome this very obstacle.
"I can communicate, but I struggle to write long sentences or give speeches."
"I want to know more about what foreigners are saying and share more about myself."
"I have something I want to explain, but I can't find the words."
This app is packed with learning features perfect for anyone who has experienced similar experiences.
Why "Explanatory Skills" Are Important
Memorizing vocabulary and grammar is, of course, important in language learning. However, true communication skills are the ability to clearly convey your thoughts and experiences to others.
Want to have deep conversations with locals while traveling abroad?
Want to express your opinions clearly while studying abroad?
Want to give successful business presentations?
Want to speak frankly with international friends?
What's essential for all of these is the ability to explain things logically and naturally.
Katari's Distinctive Features
1. Practical Conversation Practice with AI
Katari's greatest feature is that you learn through natural dialogue with AI. It's not just a question-and-answer session.
A variety of topics are prepared every day.
Topics commonly used in real conversations, such as "Tell me about your hometown," "What's your favorite food," and "What interesting thing happened recently?"
As you answer, the AI understands your answers and asks natural follow-up questions.
The conversation deepens, just as if you were having a real conversation with a real person.
These "follow-up questions" are important. In real conversations, digging deeper into a topic leads to richer communication. Katari recreates this natural conversational flow and gradually improves your explanation skills.
2. Supports both voice and text input
Everyone has a different learning style. Katari can adapt to your preferences.
Voice Input Mode: Practice speaking aloud. This improves pronunciation, intonation, and speaking rhythm.
Text Input Mode: For when you want to carefully construct sentences. Study during your commute or in a quiet place.
Both modes allow you to practice expressing your thoughts in a foreign language.
3. Repetitive Practice Ensures Solidification
Katari allows you to revisit the same topic as many times as you like. This is crucial for language acquisition.
Don't worry if you can only give short answers the first time.
With each subsequent attempt, you'll become more detailed and speak more naturally.
By repeatedly explaining the same content, expressions will come out naturally.
Your vocabulary and range of expressions will also expand.
Just like practicing a sport or an instrument, repeated practice will help you reach a level where words come out naturally without thinking.
4. Learning History Review
All past conversations are saved and can be reviewed at any time.
You can see your progress.
Compare your answers to previous ones to see how much your expressiveness has improved.
You can view your records in both your native language and the language you're studying, deepening your understanding.
You can review expressions you learned and make them your own.
Your progress is visible, helping you stay motivated.
5. Diverse Topics
Katari offers a wide range of topics, from everyday life to business, hobbies, and culture.
Introducing yourself and your hometown; talking about your favorite foods, movies, and music; talking about your travel experiences and future plans; talking about work and studies; and even social issues and cultural topics.
It covers all the topics you'd likely discuss in real-life situations, so you can immediately apply what you've learned in real life.
