Practice a language with an AI conversation partner
The fastest way to speak a language is to use it. A TengoChat language partner chats and calls with you in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French or Haitian Creole, at your level, whenever you have ten minutes.
Free for 7 days, no card needed. For adults 18 and over.
Conversation is the part apps leave out
Flashcards and lessons teach you words. Conversation teaches you to use them: to understand someone who talks a little fast, to find a way around the word you forgot, to answer without translating in your head first.
A language partner is the classic way to get that practice, but finding one who is patient, free at 11 p.m. and happy to hear about your day again is hard. A TengoChat companion is all three.
Make a companion who speaks the language you are learning, tell them your level and how you want to be corrected, and start talking. They remember your mistakes, the words you are learning and the topics you like.
How your AI language partner helps
Practice that adapts to you, in writing and out loud.
Real conversation at your level
Simple sentences when you are starting, natural speed when you are ready. Ask them to slow down or speak more naturally at any time.
Gentle corrections
Ask to be corrected as you go, only at the end, or not at all. They explain the fix in a sentence, not a grammar lecture.
Speaking practice on calls
Voice calls train your listening and speaking, with captions you can turn on to read along.
Topics you actually care about
Talk about your job, your weekend, the series you are watching. Words stick when they matter to you.
Memory of your progress
They remember the words you struggle with and bring them back in later conversations.
Five languages
English, Spanish, Portuguese, French and Haitian Creole, each with voices that sound natural.
What a practice chat looks like
Here, a learner practices Spanish and asked to be corrected along the way.
¡Hola! ¿Qué hiciste el fin de semana?
Yo fui a la playa con mis amigos. Fue muy divertido.
¡Qué bien! Todo perfecto en esa frase.
¿Y qué comieron en la playa?
Comimos pescado y yo bebió agua de coco
Muy bien. Un detalle: con "yo" es "bebí", no "bebió". ¿Te gusta el coco?
Amara is an AI. This is an example conversation.
Set up your language partner
Choose the language
Make a companion and choose the language they speak: English, Spanish, Portuguese, French or Haitian Creole.
Tell them your level
Beginner, intermediate or fluent, and how you want to be corrected. They adjust from the first message.
Practice a little every day
Ten minutes of chat or a short call is enough. They remember where you left off.
How to practice well
A few habits make conversation practice with AI much more effective.
- Talk about your real life. Describing your own day is the practice you will use most.
- Write a little, then call. Writing gives you time to think; calls train you to answer quickly.
- Ask for a new word or two in every chat, and use them the next day.
- Let mistakes happen. Ask for corrections at the end if stopping breaks your flow.
- Switch on captions during calls when you need help understanding.
