Lale teaches Turkish the way it is actually spoken — at the café, the market, the ferry and the family table. Start from zero and build real conversation skills in ten to fifteen minutes a day.
Made for English speakers who want to speak Turkish in real life: travellers, expats, students, and the partners and friends of Turkish speakers.
LEARN TURKISH ONE DAY AT A TIME
• 128 daily lessons from absolute beginner (A0) through A1 and A2 to B1
• Every lesson starts with a real situation, not a grammar rule: ordering, asking the way, prices, meeting people, texting, health, work
• Short steps you finish in one sitting: hear it, say it, build it, check it
• Yesterday's words come back at the start of today's lesson, by ear
SPEAK FROM DAY ONE
• Audio for every word and sentence
• Speaking practice with a speech check (where your phone supports Turkish)
• Pronunciation and spelling boards for the letters that trip English speakers up: ç, ş, ğ, ı, ö, ü
• Sentence builder: put the word tiles in order, with one extra tile that tests the grammar
REAL-LIFE SCENARIOS
Ten guided conversations you can rehearse before you need them: café and restaurant, market, taxi, airport, hotel, pharmacy, ferry, WhatsApp, a work meeting and meeting the family.
FLASHCARDS THAT KNOW WHEN TO ASK
• A picture flashcard with audio for every new word
• Spaced repetition: cards return right before you would forget them
• A searchable Turkish–English dictionary of every word you have met
MISTAKE REVIEW
• Every wrong answer is kept and asked again — the same question, the same choices — until it sticks
• Cards you clear today rest until tomorrow, so review stays short
TURKISH GRAMMAR, MADE VISIBLE
• Vowel harmony, suffixes, word order and tenses shown with patterns and colour, not walls of text
• Common slips pointed out before you make them
• Every explanation in plain English, written for learners, not linguists
STAY MOTIVATED
• Daily streak, hearts and quests, a weekly league and a small in-app bazaar
• Games between lessons: Word Ferry, Suffix Bazaar, Lale Drive and Lale Rooms
• Couple Mode: learn together with your partner in a shared garden
• Optional daily reminders
• Sign in with Google, Apple or email; your progress syncs across phone, tablet and web
