Learn Basque: Euskara

Every other language in Europe belongs to a family. Basque belongs to none.

Euskara is a language isolate, unrelated to Spanish, French, English or anything else on the continent. It was spoken in these valleys before the languages around it ever arrived, and it has no cousins to borrow from. That is what makes it fascinating, and it is also why it needs a course built for it rather than one that assumes you can guess from a familiar root. There are no familiar roots here.

Speak Basque starts you right at the beginning, at Kaixo and Egun on, and carries you to real conversation across 54 levels, 179 lessons and more than 845 words and phrases, each lesson resting carefully on the last.

It begins with the things you reach for every day, greetings, food (ogia and the staples of a Basque table), family, numbers, the clock. Bilbo, Donostia, Gasteiz and Iruñea appear as you go, and the later levels open into verbs, grammar and real daily conversation.

HOW IT TEACHES
- A spaced repetition engine reviews each word at the moment before you forget it
- Six exercise types: listening, translation, typing, fill in the blank, word bank, matching
- Clear built-in audio for every word, essential when nothing sounds familiar
- Phonetic guides throughout
- Fully offline, with the audio bundled in
