Frequently asked questions

Yes, completely. Langula is ad-supported and free to use without any subscription, hidden paywall, or premium tier. Every lesson, flashcard session, and pronunciation exercise is available to everyone at no cost.

No account is required to begin learning. You can jump straight into lessons the moment you land on the site. An optional account is available if you want your progress automatically synced across devices — but it is never a prerequisite.

That depends on how consistently you study and which language you are learning, but as a rough guide: reaching B1 typically takes around 3–6 months of regular daily practice, while B2 can take 9–18 months. Langula's structured path of 80 lessons and spaced-repetition flashcards is designed to get you there as efficiently as possible.

None at all. The course begins at absolute beginner level (A1), so you can start with zero knowledge of your target language. Every concept is introduced gradually, building on what you already know.

Langula uses a classic five-box Leitner system for its flashcards. New words start in Box 1 and are reviewed frequently. Each time you answer correctly, the card moves to the next box and is reviewed less often; an incorrect answer sends it back to Box 1. This means you spend more time on words you find difficult and less time on words you already know well, which is one of the most research-backed ways to build lasting vocabulary.

Langula uses your browser's built-in speech recognition to listen to you speak and score your pronunciation in real time. No audio is ever recorded, transmitted to our servers, or stored anywhere — the recognition happens entirely within your browser. You will need to grant microphone permission once per session.

No. Audio is processed locally by your browser's speech-recognition engine and discarded immediately after scoring. Langula never receives, stores, or has access to any recording of your voice.

You earn a certificate for each CEFR level you complete: A1, A2, B1, and B2. Certificates are issued per language, so finishing the French B1 section earns you a French B1 certificate. They are a genuine record of the lessons you have completed through the platform.

Langula is a browser-based app and requires an internet connection to load lessons, sync progress, and run its speech-recognition features. Offline use is not currently supported, so make sure you have a connection before starting a study session.

Yes. You can switch freely between any of the languages Langula offers, and your progress in each language is tracked independently. Many learners study two languages in parallel — for example, refreshing Spanish while starting Japanese.

Create a free Langula account and log in on each device. Your completed lessons, flashcard box states, and certificates are all tied to your account and update automatically, so you can seamlessly switch between your phone and desktop without losing anything.

Yes. Langula is designed to work on both mobile browsers and desktop browsers without any app download required. The layout adapts to your screen size, and pronunciation practice works on mobile as long as your browser supports speech recognition (most modern mobile browsers do).

Langula is family-friendly and the content is appropriate for all ages. Younger learners can work through the beginner levels independently, though the course is designed primarily with adult and teenage learners in mind. Parental guidance is recommended for very young children, mainly because the app includes ads.

Langula takes privacy seriously. If you choose to create an account, only your email address and progress data are stored. No audio is ever saved. The site uses ads to remain free, which involves standard ad-network cookies; full details are in the Privacy Policy linked in the footer.

Langula offers a growing library of languages spanning European and Asian options, all structured from A1 through B2. Check the language selection on the home page for the current full list, as new languages are added over time.

Lessons introduce new vocabulary and grammar in a structured, guided format that follows the A1–B2 curriculum. Flashcards then reinforce what you have learned using the Leitner spaced-repetition method, prompting you to recall words at scientifically timed intervals so they move into long-term memory.

Each language has 80 lessons covering the full A1-to-B2 range. The lessons are divided into CEFR levels so you always know exactly where you are in the curriculum and how much further you need to go to reach your goal level.

If you have a Langula account and are logged in, your progress is saved to the server continuously, so closing the browser or switching devices will not cause you to lose anything. If you are using Langula without an account, progress is saved in your browser's local storage, which persists between sessions on the same device as long as you do not clear your browser data.
