Languages
Learn to read a new alphabet, or the first words of a language: numbers, days, months and colors. Short timed drills, right or wrong, and every word checked by a native speaker. Free, no sign-up.
The first language quizzes are with their native-speaker reviewers. Each one appears here as soon as every word in it has been checked.
About these quizzes
The alphabet quizzes show one character at a time, shuffled: type its sound in Latin letters, or its name. They cover Japanese hiragana and katakana, the Korean alphabet, and the Russian, Greek and Arabic alphabets, and say on each page which spellings count. The word quizzes cover numbers 1 to 20, the days of the week, the months and eleven colors, in Spanish, French, German, Italian and Brazilian Portuguese. Answer in the language, or start by answering in English.
These are drills, not lessons: short, right or wrong, and against the clock. A native speaker of each language has checked every word, every accepted spelling and every recording, and a page goes up only once that check is complete. If you spot a mistake anyway, each page has a link to tell us. Your scores are kept in this browser, and nothing is sent anywhere.
