What other learners are saying

โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜… "I've been using Memrise for about two years, studying European Portuguese. I have the paid version - it's a solid learning tool, and it has been my primary resource ever since got it. I find the Learn with Locals feature to be especially useful, more so as my Portuguese improves. My wife and I spent a couple of weeks in Portugal a few months ago, and we were able to handle all of our transactions - stores, restaurants, markets, car rental, etc!" -Voloรบre

This app has potential. My biggest things are having to pay to have the grammatically explained to you. Limiting those explanations make it harder to fully grasp language learning. Also, the lessons move way too fast. When answering a question, you can't just reflect on it for a second, because it almost immediately goes to the next question. Navigating through the app is overwhelming and showing lessons that free users cannot access is just distracting. Learning common phrases does help.

Used a few hours and am impressed compared to similar aps. I didn't know I could select more than 1 word list, so I wound up doing semi-advanced conversations for moving abroad, which is a bit too difficult currently (yet still had fun). I tried going backward in lessons but couldn't, so I deleted all progress and am starting anew. Lessons have no tags/labels, so navigation is a bit convoluted. Will have to see what else is on here and re-review.

Good overall. No basic review of the grammar is ever available which makes learning certain languages harder. The AI thing keeps prompting me to fill in nouns when I haven't learned any, so those lessons are useless; plus the pronunciation lessons will accept just about any pronunciation whether it's right or not. But the available vocabulary lists are extensive, so it's a pretty good complement to other study materials.

Thanks for your review! We'll suggest conversations we think you might be ready for based on the vocabulary you know, but as we don't yet have a high volume of conversations you may see the same ones again. If you want to choose a different conversation from the one presented, just head to the Conversations and select one of your choice.
