Free on iPhone and Android. No in-app purchases.

Apple Watch and Wear OS apps are coming soon.

Letters

Word of the day

A new Spanish word every day

The word of the day comes with its meaning in English. Then you see it highlighted in an example sentence, so you learn how it is really used.

Say it as you read it

Spanish is written almost exactly as it sounds. Once you know the letters, you can read new words out loud with confidence.

Word of the day
hola
hello
Hola, ¿cómo estás?
Hello, how are you?
Start with these words

Related words come on days in a row, so a set like greetings, question words or the days of the week is learned together. Here are a few you will meet:

holahello
adiósgoodbye
graciasthank you
por favorplease
perdónsorry
