What other learners are saying

★★★★★ "I've been using Memrise for about two years, studying European Portuguese. I have the paid version - it's a solid learning tool, and it has been my primary resource ever since got it. I find the Learn with Locals feature to be especially useful, more so as my Portuguese improves. My wife and I spent a couple of weeks in Portugal a few months ago, and we were able to handle all of our transactions - stores, restaurants, markets, car rental, etc!" -Voloúre

Good overall. No basic review of the grammar is ever available which makes learning certain languages harder. The AI thing keeps prompting me to fill in nouns when I haven't learned any, so those lessons are useless; plus the pronunciation lessons will accept just about any pronunciation whether it's right or not. But the available vocabulary lists are extensive, so it's a pretty good complement to other study materials.

Thanks for your review! We'll suggest conversations we think you might be ready for based on the vocabulary you know, but as we don't yet have a high volume of conversations you may see the same ones again. If you want to choose a different conversation from the one presented, just head to the Conversations and select one of your choice.

app no longer opens w 7/23/25 update. miss the user-generated flashcards. trying to force us to use "ai" is stupid. I had a multi-year streak in multiple languages, then one day about a year and a half ago, you updated app so I have to exit, re-enter, and exit each language's learning to add today to the streak. videos were nice additions. app hangs on load screen now, so can't use it.

After a few weeks I have to edit my review. I'm not too fond of the lesson formats. They seem so random. However, the AI features are what gives this app such GREAT value for me. Definitely a keeper for that reason. We need something to train our minds into putting sentences together in the language we're learning. This app seems great for that.
