BhashaSetu

Most apps teach you words. BhashaSetu teaches you when to use them.

In India, the mistake that costs you is rarely vocabulary. It is register — saying "tum" to someone who expected "aap", or using a friend's words with an elder. That is what this app is built around.

WHAT YOU GET

• Full courses in Hindi, Kannada, Marathi and Gujarati, with more being written. Ten units each, written for these languages from scratch.

• Real script from day one. Devanagari, Kannada and Gujarati, taught as writing systems rather than spelled out in English letters.

• Register practice. You get a situation and choose how to say it: to a friend, to a stranger, to someone older. This is the part other apps skip.

• Every word is voiced, so you hear it as you learn it.

• Culture cards. Short notes on why a festival matters, or what a word carries that English does not.

• Five-minute lessons. Eight to ten questions, short enough for a commute.

• Works offline. Lessons run with no signal, and your progress syncs later.

KEEPING YOU GOING

Hearts, XP, streaks, achievements, and weekly leagues of about thirty people. League names are anonymous, so there is nobody to impress.

A daily reminder that learns when you actually practise.
