Every language, from every language
The app used to explain Ukrainian in English. Now it explains any of nineteen languages in any of them — so you can learn Japanese from Spanish, or English from Polish.
Until now there was one way in: you spoke English, and you learned Ukrainian. Everything the app said to you — what a word meant, why an ending was wrong, what the teacher wrote on the board — was in English, because English was the only language it had.
That was always a strange thing for a language app to insist on. Someone who speaks Spanish and wants to learn Japanese shouldn't have to go through a third language to do it.
What changed
The app now holds two languages at once, chosen separately: the one you're learning, and the one you already speak. The two together are a pair.
- Nineteen languages to learn: Bulgarian, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish and Ukrainian.
- Any of them to learn from, English included.
- Every button, label, hint and explanation is in the language you read, not the one you're studying.
English being one of the nineteen means the app now teaches English too — from Polish, from Korean, from Turkish.
Your notebook comes with you
A pair has its own words, its own conversations and its own lessons, and you can keep several at once. The picker at the top of the sidebar switches between the pairs you've started; starting a new one has a page of its own, so a stray tap can't drop you into a language you've never begun.
Nothing you had before moved or disappeared. It's a pair like any other now.
