Prägen

Daily German vocabulary for English speakers.

The German you hear at work, at the Bürgeramt, and in your inbox. The kind of German textbooks skip.

Textbooks teach you Schmetterling. Nobody teaches you Nebenkostenabrechnung, the word on the letter in your mailbox asking for €847 within 14 days.

Prägen teaches the German you'll use every day. One new word, with real cultural context. Quizzes that help words stay. No streaks, no XP, no guilt.


REAL-LIFE GERMAN, DAILY

Every day, one new German word with its meaning, real examples, and cultural context. Words from work, the supermarket, the Ausländerbehörde, and your inbox.

Read real German news from Tagesschau, NDR, and ZDF, all with tap-to-translate. Learn vocabulary in the context where you'll actually meet it.


BUILT TO LAST

Every word comes with a memory tip, written for English speakers.

Six quiz modes built around active recall: multiple choice, flashcards, der/die/das, fill-in-the-blank, swipe, and explanations after every answer.

Save any word into your personal dictionary. Quiz yourself on the words you saved, not someone else's word list.


ONE WORD A DAY. NO GUILT.

90 seconds a day is enough. No lessons. No levels. No XP.

No streaks. No notifications guilting you for missing a day.

Built for A2 to C1 learners. Not for absolute beginners. For people who already know enough to start using it.
