Description
⭐ 4.7 stars from 45,000+ reviews. Trusted by language learners worldwide.
LingQ is the language learning method that gets you fluent — by reading and listening to real content you actually enjoy, not textbook drills or gamified exercises.
Learn Spanish, English, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Arabic, and 45+ more languages.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📖 THE LINGQ METHOD — WHY IT WORKS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
LingQ is built on comprehensible input — the science-backed idea that we acquire language the same way we learned our first language: by understanding meaningful content at our level, not memorizing rules.
Instead of lessons and drills, you immerse yourself in real stories, podcasts, books, and videos. You encounter words in context, look them up instantly, and naturally absorb the language over time. This is language immersion that actually fits into your life.
LingQ was co-founded by Steve Kaufmann, a polyglot who has learned 20+ languages using this exact approach.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🆚 HOW LINGQ IS DIFFERENT ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Unlike Duolingo, Babbel, or Rosetta Stone, LingQ doesn't rely on gamification, repetitive drills, or synthetic sentences. Instead:
✅ You learn from REAL content — podcasts, books, YouTube, Netflix ✅ You choose topics you love — sports, history, comedy, true crime ✅ You build vocabulary from context — not flashcard lists ✅ You progress through immersion — not streaks or XP points
If you've plateaued with other language learning apps, LingQ is the next step.

The app is easy to navigate and use, and I feel like I am Really learning my new language!! I am new to the app, and I Understand that I Can only have 20 LingQ's, but even when I delete the Ones I know now when I used up my 20, and I now have less than 20 LingQ's, It's still says I need premium to add more... I'm confused on that part because now I can't add them For I can go back and learn the new words im introduced too, but overall it's a Great app! I think everyone should give it a try!

The content in hebrew could be less bad...and the subs are incorrect
★★★★★Susan Dobbins· Jun 18, 2026
The more I use LincQ, the better I like it. I originally gave it 4 stars. My Italian is progressing at a markedly increased rate. To be honest, I use several apps and methods.
★★★★★Curro Fdez.· Mar 6, 2026
Translations are unnecessarily annoying, why can't you just introduce the option to show the sentence translation right below without having to translate sentence by sentence? Also, when the audio is playing, and you click on the "view sentence" button, it translates/selects a previous sentence, not the one that's being said by the audio.
★★☆☆☆John· May 2, 2026
Definitely not for beginners. You need some familiarity with the language to utilize this app. Probably pretty useful once you have a working knowledge of the language but not appropriate for someone that decided to start learning today
★☆☆☆☆Carlos Caro· Apr 26, 2026
The free version is too limited. You are induced to choose 20 words that you can't change later unless you pay.
★★☆☆☆La Comtesse· May 4, 2026
Unimpressed. The free version with the 20 Lings when no instructions are provided for telling you that if you tap a word (even a simple word) that it is added to your list is poor. You should provide a training lesson to use the app, then reset the 20. At least I have Babel for life and the DuoLingo subscription can include up to 6 people, even if it's not ideal. This is overpriced for what it is. Paying to listen to Stromal and read the lyrics is silly. I can do that for free.
★☆☆☆☆A. A.· Apr 6, 2026
Premium voices I paid for don't work. Even selecting a free voice doesn't work.
★☆☆☆☆Syaeful Anwar (Shae)· Mar 15, 2026
It's weird. The latest update is supposed to fix or improve the accessibility, right? However, I'm a Talk Back user, and after the update, I can't interact with the text. Before the update, as long as I have the TTS voice for the language, Talk Back would read the text. To sum up, the recent update renders the app unusable for Talk Back users.
