Wordaboo teaches a language the way you would actually learn one: a few minutes at a time, with pictures instead of translations, and every word spoken aloud.

GRAMMAR EXPLAINED IN YOUR OWN LANGUAGE
Most apps translate the same explanation into forty languages. Wordaboo writes a different one. "German says half past two as halfway to three" is a sentence about English — so if you speak Russian or Spanish, you get an explanation built around your language instead. Every grammar card in every course is written this way.

THE APP SPEAKS YOUR LANGUAGE TOO
Not just the lessons — every screen, every button, every message, in nine languages: English, Russian, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Uzbek, Turkish, Indonesian and Hindi. Hindi is written in Devanagari throughout.

THE SAME VOICE ON EVERY PHONE
Every word is spoken aloud with the same audio on every phone, rather than your handset's own voice — four different voices, and nothing that changes from device to device. A course downloads once when you open it, then works offline. Long-press any speaker button to hear it more slowly.

HOW IT WORKS
• Short lessons, about four minutes each
• Pictures instead of translations, wherever a picture is clearer
• A placement test so you do not start below where you are — it never moves you backwards
• A daily goal you pick yourself
• Streaks, with a freeze so one missed day does not undo a good month
• A weekly league of 20 people who all started the same week
• Friend streaks, entirely optional and off until you turn them on

The levels describe what each chapter teaches, on the A1–B2 scale schools use. They are not a certificate.

Wordaboo is free. Premium removes ads and the waiting, and is never required to finish a course.
