Phrasing was built by humans, not AI. Because real people deserve products made by real people.
Phrasing was built by humans, not AI. Because real people deserve products made by real people.



It's hard enough to learn a language without tools getting in your way. Language learning apps either don't work, or are frustrating to use. There's a reason so many successful polyglots recommend a pen-and-paper approach. That's why I spent over 10,000 hours building Phrasing, obsessing over every detail, to make an app you will genuinely love. To bring language learning into the modern age, and help you achieve your linguistic potential.
With Phrasing, you'll be able to easily learn multiple new languages, improve existing languages, and even dabble in a few more — all at the same time, without ever leaving the app, and in less time than you'd think possible. You'll learn native content from day one, and never forget what you learn.
Phrasing has no investors and no ads. It will always remain staunchly independent, built by humans, and focused on pushing the linguistic envelope.

Phrasing helps me build an intuition for language better than any app I've tried before. It encourages me to dive into the deep end while giving me the context to not be overwhelmed. So the fragments of understanding I'm creating are larger and better connected.

The animations in the app are really really nice. The coolest part though is being able to learn from my favorite songs, and seenig the etymology of every word, that's also one of my favorites!
