About this app

Based on the latest research in collective intelligence and AI, Lingvist quickly predicts your current level & identifies which words will be most useful for you to learn next.

You can now learn 16 languages from English, including the culturally rich Japanese, Korean and learn Scandinavian languages Swedish, Danish and Norwegian.

You're eligible for a 14-day free trial of Lingvist.

Lingvist helps you cultivate a healthy learning routine & informs you about the optimal amount of daily study time. Lingvist keeps you challenged and tracks your progress.

With the help of a spaced repetition algorithm & AI that learns from our user base, Lingvist presents you with problems that are on the tip of your tongue, just as you’re about to forget them.

Lingvist is designed for people who want to take their comprehension to the next level. Alongside a deck based on the most frequently used words, you can tailor the course with handcrafted decks in specialist subjects, so you’ll be ready for the language encounters relevant to you.

You can even study to have comfortable conversations about niche topics by uploading a textbook or Wikipedia article & having Lingvist generate a custom deck based on the content which presents your target vocabulary in a variety of realistic contexts.

Lingvist doesn’t replace the most fun part of learning a language – speaking it with real people – instead, it will give you a firm foundation of vocabulary, with grammar tips concisely integrated in the experience, allowing you to rely on whatever balance of intuition and logic suits you best.

If you want to reach your language learning goals faster, whether it's fluency & pronunciation, confidence, or more technical vocabulary, there’s no app like Lingvist. Whether you're a complete beginner or an advanced language learner, there’s always a new idiom or grammatical structure to learn.

Full courses are available in European/Latin American Spanish, French, Japanese, German, Brazilian Portuguese, Italian, Dutch, Russian, Korean, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian, Polish and Estonian. Speakers of other languages (Simplified Chinese, Russian, Spanish, Latin American Spanish, Dutch, Turkish, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Thai, Hindi, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese, Polish, Arabic and Ukrainian) can also learn English grammar & English vocabulary with Lingvist.

No wonder users keep saying, “This is the best vocabulary app I’ve ever had!”

update: it contains a free trial, but most of the app is locked behind a paywall. I understand the need to earn revenue and since they do it really well I can't complain about it. still, I can't pay for it right now so I'll have to go back to avocards 😭 past review below most Korean vocabulary flashcard learning apps are fairly straightforward and repetitive, but if you're a beginner it exposes you to how those words are used in sentences, and makes you get used to typing in Korean! 10/10

Thank you for the review. Lingvist is indeed a paid app (we offer a free trial period of 14 days). Our technology is one of the best in the world for vocabulary building, and we add new languages on a regular basis, which requires investing. The trial period can be extended via hello@lingvist.io, if you're interested.

The software, the algorithm and the UI are great. I enjoy using the app to refresh my German, but I have to admit it can't be a one-stop app for new learners. Lingvist is a great complementary tool for vocabulary building, but it goes only as far as that. You also need to have a basic understanding of your target language grammar and morphology to account for different word forms. I am in no way discouraging from using it, not at all. Just be sure that you know where it excels and what it lacks.

We're improving our app for beginners, but currently it's most efficient when users already know some basics, like a few hundred words in the target language. Our method has structure and methodology, but the current algorithm works best with some prior knowledge.

I love this app mainly for the feature that informs you of who mich of the lanugae you can read. Where this app wins over others is the amount of languages it provides. Additonally, the grammer is important but I haven't thourouly explored it. That being said, depending the target language, there are better apps without a subscription (spanish) or cheaper options.
