RootLingua helps you learn new languages from your native language. No English required. Your roots are your starting point. We help you branch out from there.
The RootLingua difference
Most apps force you through English. RootLingua meets you where you are: flashcards, games, stories, and clues all appear in your native language.
Study
Every card shows your native translation on the front, the language you’re learning on the back, with images and audio. Tap to flip.
Play
Practice what you’ve studied through playful challenges. Each game only uses words you’ve already reviewed.
Match native words to their translations by tapping pairs.
Guess the word from descriptive clues. Can you get it on the first clue?
Listen to the native pronunciation and type what you hear.
Catch the correct falling word before it hits the ground.
Test both your vocabulary and your memory by flipping cards to find the matching translations.
Rapid-fire true/false matching! How many can you evaluate in 60 seconds?
