Do I have to pay?

No. The lessons, the dictionary, the pronunciation pages and the word sets are open to anyone who visits.

Then why would I sign up?

So the site remembers you. When you are signed in, every word you master is counted and saved, and you can pick up where you left off on any device.

Which language does it teach?

Both. A Spanish speaker learns English, and an English speaker learns Spanish. Each lesson shows English in blue and Spanish in red, side by side.

How is this different from other language sites?

Every step teaches exactly one new word. Everything else in the sentence is a word you already know, repeated until it is yours. Read the method for the full explanation.

Do I need to know the alphabet or grammar first?

No. You start with one word, then two words together, then a short sentence. Within the first few sets of words you are already making sentences.

Can I hear the words?

Yes. Click any sentence and it is read aloud — English in an English voice, Spanish in a Mexican-Spanish voice.

Can the site tell me if I said it right?

Yes. Press the microphone button on a lesson step, say the sentence, and the site scores how close you were, out of 100.

What is the pronunciation written in the corner of each word?

It is the sound of the English word written the way a Spanish speaker reads it. The full list is on the pronunciation key.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. Nothing to install — open the site in the phone's browser.

Is there anything for children?

Yes. The Kids page uses big buttons and leads with sound rather than reading.

How long does it take to learn a language?

Months, and often more than a year, to truly speak one. What changes here is how soon you can say something real — that starts in the first lessons.
