PortugueseFrenchLe café se trouvait quasiment déserté à pareille heure. Des effluves de café chaud imprégnaient la salle. Quelques clients s'entretenaient à mi-voix près de la devanture.
Elle tergiversa longuement avant de passer commande. Le serveur patientait près du comptoir, sans hâte aucune. Elle jeta finalement son dévolu sur un chocolat chaud et une part de tarte.
Il consigna la commande d'un hochement de tête. Au-dehors, la pluie ne faisait que commencer. Elle ouvrit son livre et fit abstraction du reste du monde.

She hesitated a long time before ordering. The waiter waited by the counter, in no hurry. She finally chose a hot chocolate and a slice of pie.

Know your vocabulary level in under a minute.
esconoce tu nivel de vocabulario en menos de un minuto
Traditional levels don't reflect what you really know. Two “B1” learners can be a thousand words apart.
So we measure your vocabulary instead: how many words you recognise, and which CEFR band that vocabulary matches. It isn't a grammar, listening or speaking test. Vocabulary is what decides whether a text is readable, so we place you precisely on the scale by it, and keep everything you study just inside your reach. Not roughly your level - exactly your level.

frfoire aux questions
- Is it free?
- Yes, the whole app is free for now. The one-minute vocabulary test and the exercises need no account; a free account adds memory scenes for every word and the full library of parallel texts.
- Which languages can I learn?
- English, French, Spanish, German, Italian, and Portuguese - six so far, with more on the way.
- How is this different from other apps?
- Most apps guess your level and give everyone the same lessons. We measure your exact vocabulary, then keep every text, scene, and exercise right at it - and move it as you grow.
- What does the test measure?
- Your vocabulary: roughly how many words you know, and the CEFR band that vocabulary matches. It doesn't test grammar, listening or speaking, so read the level as a vocabulary level rather than a grade for your whole language.
- Do I need an account to try it?
- No. Take the test as a guest; your result carries over the moment you sign up.
- What do I actually do each day?
- Read parallel texts at your level, save the words you don't know and lock them in with memory scenes, and run quick exercises - five to fifteen minutes at a time.
- Does my level change over time?
- Yes. As you read and practice, your placement quietly moves with you - no need to re-test.
