Asslema - Learn Tunisian

Stan Kocken

About this app

Asslema is a simple, focused way to learn Tunisian (Derja / Tounsi).

Whether you're traveling to Tunisia, reconnecting with family roots, or just curious about one of the most distinctive dialects of the Arabic-speaking world, Asslema gives you the words and phrases that actually come up in daily life — and lets you hear how a Tunisian really says them.

WHAT YOU GET
• A curated vocabulary, organized by theme: greetings, numbers, food and drink, getting around, directions, everyday expressions, and more.
• Native-recorded audio for every word and phrase. Tap to hear it; tap again to replay.
• A quick multiple-choice quiz that pulls from the section you're studying, so the words actually stick.
• Translations from and to English, French, and German — pick any pair as your "I know" → "I want to learn."

DESIGNED TO STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY
• No account. No sign-up. No email collection.
• No ads, no tracking, no in-app purchases.
• Works offline once vocabulary is loaded; audio streams on demand.
• Tiny, fast, and respectful of your time.

WHO IT'S FOR
• Travelers heading to Tunis, Sousse, Djerba, or anywhere in between.
• Tunisians abroad who want to keep the language alive — or pass it on.
• Friends, partners, and family of Tunisian speakers who want to understand more than "labès."
• Anyone fascinated by North African Arabic and the way it blends Arabic, French, Berber, and Italian.

WHY TUNISIAN, NOT MODERN STANDARD ARABIC?
Modern Standard Arabic is the language of news and books — but no one orders coffee in MSA. Tunisian Arabic is what people actually speak in the street, at the market, with family. Asslema focuses on that living, spoken language.

This is a great little app for learning the basics of Tuisian Arabic. The audio is very clear with a native Tunisian speaker. Please add more content.
