TL;DR: Learn a new language from movies you love.
That's really all you need to know…but If you have time to waste reading a characteristically lengthy app description designed for search optimization then, by all means, continue reading.
Our bigtech overlords want to make sure you understand what's going to happen after you download our language learning app. So let's be abundantly clear.
With our Nonsense you WILL NOT:
• Get fluent in 30 days
• Unscramble sentences
• Get "easy" language examples
• Increase your test scores in just 10 hours
• Be harassed by colorful birds
• Learn how to order coffee*
What you WILL do is:
• Immerse in Hollywood movie scenes
• Understand words and grammar with in-context explanations
• Hear many different voices and ways of saying things
• Learn how native speakers actually use the language
• Remember what you learn forever
• Be able to quote Shrek in foreign language
Learn 39 languages for free from your favorite movies: English, Spanish (Latin America), Spanish (Spain), French, German, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Russian, Chinese (Simplified), Italian, Japanese, Korean, Czech, Polish, Turkish, Ukrainian, Swedish, Danish, Dutch, Norwegian, Slovak, Greek, Romanian, Croatian, Bulgarian, Slovenian, Lithuanian, Serbian, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Georgian, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Urdu, Thai, Farsi, Hebrew and Arabic.
You can watch all the content for free (with annoying ads). You can pay to get rid of ads plus get unlimited saved words and scenes. You can pay a ridiculous amount to get UHD video and spatial audio.
*You'll eventually learn how to order coffee because we add new movies every week. You're bound to get a coffee ordering scene at some point.

This app has become a favorite of mine to learn Spanish on. My only concern is I truly feel like the best way to learn a new language is through full immersion. NO ENGLISH TRANSLATIONS just photos or videos and words in the language you’re trying to learn. Seeing English makes you want to translate in your head before you speak. Repeating the words in your intended language even if you don’t know what you’re saying will help bridge the gaps in your understanding as you continue to interact with the language in other contexts. I honestly wish I could turn the English off and only have Spanish on this app but besides that this is a great app. Please introduce more African languages! I am currently learning Amharic and this app would help a lot.
I love nonsense!

Super awesome app! I love the length of the clips, it makes it super easy to get on and watch a few clips when i just have a little bit of time to spare! The subtitles actual match up, unlike most streaming platforms. It’s so much easier to follow along and learn the words when you can see them and hear them, and also tap on them for clarification!
Great app

Hello! I really enjoy your app; it’s a great tool for learning languages through clips. However, I noticed that when selecting the languages, it’s not possible to choose Russian as the first language (the one you speak). Are there any plans to add Russian subtitles in the future? This would make the app accessible to more users.
Very cool!

Clever user interface, really like how it highlights words as it translates, and also lets you tap a word to pause the video to get the context for a specific term—crucial for *actually* learning a language. Two thumbs up! 👍 👍
Tapping a word or phrase during an exercise now opens redesigned help cards with smoother animations, and grouped words show up as one connected shape.
Your home-screen widget now shows your streak, and whether today's lesson is still to do or your streak needs rescuing.
