Grammar guides and the Learn library

Short grammar guides inside the app, and the free public library of word lists, verb tables and weekly words.

Grammar guides in the app

Each language has a set of short grammar guides: how the letters sound, gender, articles, plurals, verbs, and the small words that hold sentences together. Each guide is a stack of short cards, one idea per card.

Find them from Grammar under More ways to practice on Home, or from the Guide link next to a form when you set up a session, so you can read the rule right before you practice it.

The Learn library

Learn (in the top menu on a computer, the fifth tab on a phone) opens the public library: free reference pages anyone can read, signed in or not.

The Learn library for Italian: a menu of common words, vocabulary, verbs, grammar and weekly words, and a toggle between Italian and Spanish.
  1. The library’s sections: the most common words, vocabulary by topic, every verb’s tables, the grammar guides, and the weekly words.
  2. Switch the library between Italian and Spanish.
  • Common words: the core 1,000 in path order, by stage, with the English and audio.
  • Vocabulary: words by topic, with gender and plural.
  • Verbs: full conjugation tables for every verb, with the English for each form and an example sentence.
  • Grammar: the same guides as in the app, on one page each.
  • Weekly words: every issue of the weekly email.

Tap the speaker button next to any word or sentence to hear it.

The weekly email

A short email each week with a few useful words on one topic, with examples and notes on how they’re used. It’s free and you don’t need an account. Sign up at the bottom of any library page or the home page, confirm with the link we send, and unsubscribe in one click from any issue. Past issues are under Weekly words.
