What other learners say

★★★★★ "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

Used a few hours and am impressed compared to similar aps. I didn't know I could select more than 1 word list, so I wound up doing semi-advanced conversations for moving abroad, which is a bit too difficult currently (yet still had fun). I tried going backward in lessons but couldn't, so I deleted all progress and am starting anew. Lessons have no tags/labels, so navigation is a bit convoluted. Will have to see what else is on here and re-review.

there's a huge sound problem on my Honor 10 (with all audio exercises). The word is not being played fully with my headphones on (other sounds are working nicely), only last part of it, unless I press play button several times before it gives me the full word or phrase, if I'm lucky (the same recording, but full). It's kinda impossible to use the app that way 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hi - Are you able to un-install and re-install the app? This tends to refresh the system and solve the error. If this fails, can you contact us with some more information? :) https://memrise.helpshift.com/a/memrise-learn-a-new-language/

Very handy app, exactly what I've been looking for to work on my vocabulary. Don't know about other languages, but for Japanese there is a 4500 word course that is completely free! So even if Memrise's own courses get locked behind the paywall, there's probably enough of other materials that are free to use, as long as you are willing to search for them (you gotta do that in web browser on your phone or on PC).
