Use cases
Understand the answer, not just the question
Phrasebooks help you ask. The hard part of travelling in another language is understanding what comes back. That's a listening skill, and it can be trained.
Start a few weeks before you go
A sentence a day for a month is thirty everyday sentences heard, typed and checked: food, directions, work, weather, small talk. Your ear gets used to the rhythm of the language before you land.
Everyday topics, at everyday speed
Challenges cover the situations you meet when you travel: ordering, getting around, plans and conversation. Normal mode is a comfortable pace; Hard mode is closer to how people talk to each other.
Keep it going on the road
A minute fits in a queue or on a train. Your streak keeps you coming back, and a translation into your own language is one tap away.
Questions
Can a complete beginner use it before a trip?
Yes, with patience: replay the audio as often as you need and read the translation after checking. You'll recognize more each week.
Does it teach me phrases to say?
No. It trains listening, not speaking. Many travelers pair it with a phrasebook or a speaking app.
Does it work offline?
The daily sentence's audio is streamed, so you need a connection to play a new challenge.
A daily warm-up for exam listening
A daily warm-up for the listening part of IELTS, DELE, DELF, JLPT, TOPIK and more.
The language habit small enough to keep
Under a minute a day. Small enough to keep on your worst day.
You can read it. Now hear it.
For learners who read well but lose the thread when people talk.
