Hear a sentence, say it back, and tap any word you do not know.
Learn German fixes exactly that. Hear a sentence in a natural German voice, then say it back out loud — one sentence at a time, until it comes out on its own. That is the listen-and-repeat method interpreters have used for decades.
WHAT YOU GET
MADE FOR LIFE IN GERMANY
The content follows the situations you actually meet: registering your address, extending your residence permit, choosing a Krankenkasse, viewing a flat, a parents' evening at school, a letter from the Finanzamt. The B2 texts explain the Integrationskurs and the DTZ exam themselves.

Questions people ask before they start
How do I start speaking German if I freeze the moment someone asks me something?
You start by saying whole sentences out loud, not by studying more grammar. You hear one sentence in a natural German voice, then repeat it aloud before moving on. Ten minutes a day is enough to get your mouth used to the sounds, so the words are there when the clerk at the counter looks up at you.
Why does saying sentences out loud work better than more grammar?
You hear a sentence and immediately say it back, copying the rhythm and the pronunciation. Interpreters have trained this way for decades. You are not translating in your head — you are building the habit of producing German sounds at normal speed.
Can I use it to prepare for the Integrationskurs, the DTZ or a telc exam?
You practise exactly the listening and speaking situations those exams are built around: the Bürgeramt, the Ausländerbehörde, the Hausarzt, a flat viewing, a job interview, a parents' evening. The B2 texts explain the Integrationskurs and the DTZ exam themselves. It is speaking practice, not an official exam simulator.
Is Learn German Fast free?
Yes, and you can practise every day: one imported text a day (up to 500 characters), 5 word explanations and up to 20 saved words. Pro removes the daily limits: 5 imports a day (up to 3,000 characters each), unlimited word explanations and unlimited saved words.
What language are the word explanations in?
Your own. Explanations and translations are available in more than 20 languages, including Arabic, Turkish, Ukrainian, Russian, Polish, Spanish, English and Chinese. Tap any German word to get its meaning, pronunciation and an example sentence.
Can I practise with my own German text?
Yes. Paste a letter from the Jobcenter, a news article or anything else in German, and the app turns it into audio with subtitles you can repeat sentence by sentence.
