A familiar problem

Understanding once does not mean remembering.

01

Useful words disappear

You understand a word in the moment, but it does not come back when the same situation appears a week later.

02

Good cards take work

Choosing the right meaning, finding natural examples and maintaining a deck can take more effort than learning.

03

Recognition is misleading

A familiar answer is easy to pick. The word still may not come to mind when you need it in a conversation.

I recognize itI can recall it

How Lingus works

From a real-life goal — to words you can recall.

Lingus prepares the content and the schedule. You choose what matters and practise retrieving it.

1

Choose a situation

Browse a reviewed collection for a meeting, trip, relocation task or another concrete goal.

2

Meet the exact meaning

Learn one precise sense and target form through a clear explanation and natural examples.

3

Retrieve it in context

Type the missing word, hear the example and review again when retrieval becomes useful.

More than flashcards

Learn the meaning you need, not “word — translation”.

One word can mean different things. Lingus teaches one exact sense and target form through several natural contexts that preserve both.

  • ✓One exact meaning and target form
  • ✓Several natural examples for the same item
  • ✓Separate audio for the word and full sentence

Is Lingus another language course?+

No. Lingus does not lead everyone through one curriculum. You choose a concrete situation and learn the useful exact-sense vocabulary prepared for it.

How is Lingus different from flashcards?+

Lingus provides reviewed collections, keeps each exact meaning and target form precise, uses several natural contexts and schedules active recall from real evidence.

Do I need to practise every day?+

No. Lingus is designed for short, calm sessions without punishment for missed days. New expressions are limited so future reviews do not become an endless debt.

Can I add my own word?+

Yes. Enter one word or short expression. Lin prepares a bounded set of exact meanings with examples, and nothing is added until you review and confirm it.
