Well Said

Textbooks teach you "the cat is under the table." Real life needs "excuse me, I think you skipped the queue."

Well Said lets you learn a new language in your own words: the sentences you actually need, the ones you wished you'd had ready when the moment came. Say it in your own language, and Well Said turns it into a natural translation and a flashcard, ready to practise.

RECORD IT
Tap the mic and say what you want to be able to say. Well Said works out which language you spoke and translates it the way a native speaker would actually put it, not word for word. Can't talk out loud right now? Type it instead. Before anything is saved, you can check the card and fix a word or tweak the translation.

SWIPE IT
Every sentence becomes a card in your stack. Nailed it? Swipe right and it's marked as learned. Still a bit wobbly? Swipe left and it comes back for another round. Swiped the wrong way? Just tap Undo.

TEST YOURSELF
Choose where the translation goes: on the same side, on the back of the card so you can test yourself, or reversed so you practise understanding. Tap a card to flip it.

SAY IT
Hear every sentence with a native voice, or tap the tortoise for the slow version. For languages with their own script, like Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Arabic or Russian, Well Said adds a pronunciation guide in Latin letters.

YOUR LIBRARY
All your sentences in one place. Search them, edit them, and bring learned cards back whenever you want a refresher.
