A conversation app for language learners
Talk about your day. Tell a story. Follow a thought. Language Partner gives you someone to practise with, and the words to keep going.
Start with 15 free minutesExample conversations. Talk about whatever’s on your mind.
You’ve taken the lessons. You recognise the words. But when it’s your turn to speak, putting it all together can feel like starting again.
What you need is a little more room to try. To find a word, finish a thought and have another go.
Language Partner gives you that room. An AI conversation partner, ready whenever you have a few minutes to yourself.
Build a lesson around your life.
Keep what you learn. Come back and use it.
01 / Create
An interview next week. A conversation you’ve been putting off. Tell your partner what you want to work on, right down to the words and mistakes that trip you up.
Your situation. Your vocabulary. Your focus.
What would you like to practise?
I have an interview next week. I want to use the right business vocabulary in the right context.
Watch how I use phrasal verbs, and correct my pronunciation — especially words that start with an “h”, like hire and handle.
Your focus
02 / Save
Finish with a short recap of the conversation, the words you saved and the grammar you worked on. Keep them together, ready for the next time you need them.
One conversation, with everything worth coming back to.
Introducing yourself, describing a project and handling a difficult client.
Follow up with someone.
I’ll follow up with the client tomorrow.
Pronoun position: bring it up.
hirehandlehead
03 / Repeat
Come back to the same lesson with your saved words close by. Try the question again, build on your last answer and put what you’ve learned into your own words.
A familiar question. A more confident answer.
follow up with · bring up · deliverables
“I followed up the client about the late work.”
“I followed up with the client, brought up the delay and agreed on revised deliverables.”
You used “follow up with” correctly, and “deliverables” fits the context. Let’s build on that.
Explore an extensive library of grammar topics and role plays, ready whenever you are. Bring your own experiences, opinions and feelings to every lesson.
Grammar topics
Choose a topic you’ve already learned and put it into practice. Past tense can become a story about your weekend. Future tense can become a conversation about something you’re looking forward to.
The grammar gives you a focus. Your life gives you something to say.
A few places to begin
Tell me about a day that didn’t go to plan. What happened?
Last weekend I cooked for friends. I burned the dinner, but we laughed about it and ordered pizza.
Role plays
Start with a familiar situation: a school meeting, a conversation with your landlord, a meal out. Add what’s really on your mind—how you feel, what happened and what you want to say. Your partner takes the other role.
The scene is ready. The conversation is yours to shape.
A few places to begin
How has your daughter been feeling about school lately?
She loves reading, but she’s nervous about speaking in class. I was the same at her age, and I want to help.
Talk about the things that matter to you. Your plans, your opinions, the story you’ve been wanting to tell. Speak or type, and listen to your partner’s reply.
When you need a word or a reminder, it’s right there.
Translate a phrase, save it to your Dictionary and keep it close while you talk. Come back later and see what you remember.
A few words worth keeping.

Hi, I’m Iain, a language teacher and software engineer. I’ve learned several languages, but I’ve always felt I had a memory like a sieve.
Whenever I spent more time speaking, my ability took off. The hard part was getting enough practice — and finding someone with the patience to listen while I found my words.
I tried just about every app under the sun, but I found them too prescriptive and soon got bored. I wanted the freedom to talk about things that interested me, make mistakes and try again.
That’s why I built Language Partner: a patient conversation partner whenever you have a few minutes, with a place to save and revisit the words that won’t quite stick.

Language Partner is designed for learners who already know the basics, around A2 level and above. It gives you a place to practise what you’ve learned with a teacher or course, through conversation.
No. AI access is provided through Language Partner. You’ll need a Language Partner account, but you don’t need a separate AI subscription or your own API key.
You can do either. Speak your message, check it and send it, or type instead. You can listen to your partner’s replies and look up words along the way.
The current app includes English, Russian, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Japanese. The examples on this page show Russian with English translations. Grammar topic availability varies by language.
Language Partner is currently in private testing on iPhone. The launch offer is a one-time 15-minute free conversation allowance. Subscription prices and monthly allowances will be announced before public access opens.
An internet connection is needed for AI replies, translations and your cloud-saved words. Your messages are sent to an AI provider to generate replies; saved vocabulary and conversation summaries are stored with your Language Partner account.
