Is it possible to get an idea of the level that one person is currently at when downloading the feedback?

This could gain more attraction from the language learner if this platform has a Mock exam feature to assess proficiency level. For example in learning English, people want to know how much score they will get in IELTS exam. The mock exam should have the same structure as the actual exam: Listening Reading Speaking Writing It's not only limited to English but it can also be expanded to other language. French = DELF/DALF Dutch = NT2 German = TestDaF Chinese = HSK the list will go on and on

Langua is amazing and I'm learning so much about the Portuguese language and culture. I tell everyone I know who is interested in language learning about it. Just wanted you to know how happy I am to have found your product. All the best!

I added a word to my vocabulary from chat at some point using the default 'Add to Vocabulary' button inside the word popup. I came across this word later and didn't realize it had already been added since there wasn't any indication as far as I remember. This time, I expanded the 'All Meanings' section and clicked the add button next to all 3 of the definitions shown since they were different enough to be worth remembering. When going through my vocabulary list later, I noticed that I now had 4 entries for this word, each with a single definition. There are a few issues with this flow: If I'm seeing a word in a chat that is already in my saved vocabulary, it should indicate that in some way. This indication should not only be inside the word popup, but it should also be emphasized some way within the chat. The latter is the part that provides that extra signal to the brain of either "you've saved this word in the past, so nice job remembering its meaning this time" or "you've saved this word in the past and still had no idea what it meant this time, so maybe you should do some focused practice with it". If I add multiple definitions to a word, they should be added to a single vocabulary entry. In my example above, I would expect a single entry for this word with 4 definitions. I would understand the duplication if this were a word that had been saved with different conjugations or declensions, but this was a basic standalone adjective with the exact same spelling. I think that the worst offender in this case was when I added multiple meanings for a word within the same popup and it resulted in separate entries for each of those meanings.

I'm brushing up on my French and I would like the option to create flashcards of unfamiliar words with the definition in French instead of the English word. I think this option would appeal to everyone who isn't an absolute beginner.

It would be great if the app could suggest shadowing exercises and recognize pronunciation mistakes. Something like “native-like pronunciation.” The app is amazing, but I think the weak point is the voice recognition. It would also be useful to have small micro-exercises to practice phonemes and correct pronunciation errors. Thanks a lot for all.

Similar to how you can select phrases, etc, an option to conjugate (maybe present indicative by default, with options to select others)

so we can read news and check vocabularies While reading newspaper, There are too many unknown words if we have newspaper and click translate tool it would be so good

Flash cards should indicate whether word in question is a noun or verb, etc. Ex: “cook” can mean “to cook” (verb) or “one who cooks” (noun).

Allow user to make custom folders and nesting for organizing flashcards per subject, theme, and idea of purpose.

This is a generalisation of my request for adding Czech State Radio podcast in another post. User could have ability to add any podcast series/episode by providing a link to it - ideally those big platforms, but the original RSS feed should do as well. With some reasonable limits like 1h. Then, the transcript should be created on demand (not for all the episodes when they arrive). The episode and transcript should be then available to other users as well.

Czech State Radio (Český rozhlas) publishes daily podcast episodes in their series Vinohradská 12. https://pca.st/podcast/e145e020-3769-0137-f265-1d245fc5f9cf I use it everyday to start my learning - switch mental context to Czech, build up passive understanding in known context (even if above my level), introduce some vocab and determine the topic of my daily chat. What I miss the most is that the Langua interlocutor does not have access to the transcript, so I spend time noting down the words I need to translate or the ones that are important in this context and which I would like to add to my deck. So my request is to add the podcast series to the app and offer a transcript of it.

Something changed recently with the voices in the guided chat and it is jarring. A couple of requests: The default is that the AI speaks a lot of English. Would be useful to be able to easily adjust this so that you can choose to hear the explanations in Spanish so that it is a better listening exercise.When the Ai in the guided course speaks English, it used to be accented English but now it is more like British English, which is a weird juxtaposition with the accent of the target language (I am studying Latin American Spanish). Better to have the English be accented in the target language.

Idea is to set up a Discussion Group - This would compliment the Feedback session. A place where users can help each other with the app and provide their tips and ideas working with the app. It could include, but not limited to: questions; tips; workarounds; ideas for Design My Own; suggestions for items to submit to Languatalk Feedback section. Languatalk may find some ideas here for improving the app as well, but they would not be expected to respond here. Make this directly accessible from the Web and apps.

I would like to be able to say anything I want without getting into a conversation. I'd like the AI to repeat and correct what I say without asking me a question to move the conversation forward. Ideally rate my pronunciation. I can then use repetition of the same or modified sentence to improve. I read a blog on Duolingo that said to learn to think in a language start by saying the first things that come into your head (it doesn't have to make sense) and over time put related words together and then eventually form sentences. Repeat as often as necessary for your brain to understand the words without translation.
