Hey HN, I've been tooling around with AI and vibe-coding for the last few weeks, and thought I'd share the result project and my thoughts.I started out with the idea of making something quite simple and heavily reliant on AI as a side-project to get further my learning journey in AI and agents. Combine this with the "vibe-coding" that I've been hearing the youths talking about, and I thought it...

Hey HN! I'm Callum, and I'm working on a way to make learning new languages easier using AI.Personally, when I've been learning a new language, I've always found it hard to find someone to practice with. To overcome this, I started playing around with AI to see if they could make the process easier, and found that it was fun and simple to converse with them, and that I was learning new vocab in...
Thanks for the feedback! These sound like great ideas, and you will be happy to know that audio conversations are already possible! You can try it out by clicking the 'Audio' tab. Let me know how it goes, and if you have any other suggestions!
Thanks for pointing that out! Should be fixed now.
Thank you! All the best to you too!
I am currently working on a few features that will provide a better text chat for users, but one feature that you may not have seen is the ability to hold a spoken conversation. You can try this through the Audio tab; let me know what you think!
I appreciate the feedback; putting the available languages front and centre is a good suggestion. Thanks!
I think there is value in learning to be fluent in different forms of communication when learning a new language. The good news is that you can definitely practice verbal communication with LearnLingo. You can find this through the Audio tab (or at
https://www.learnlingo.dev/audio). Let me know what you think!
Hi there! Thanks for the suggestion; sounds like a good idea. It is worth noting that you are able to hold text and audio conversations for free after signing up, though a demo available immediately would also be valuable.
Thanks for the feedback! I agree that the mobile experience is far for acceptable, but this is something I am actively working on at the moment. Also, Japanese is a language that is planned to be supported in the near future!
Totally agree; the mobile experience is terrible atm. I'm currently working on fixing it!
Currently a number of languages are supported, including Italian, German, French, English, Korean and Danish, among many others. Is there a specific language you are looking to learn?
Thanks for pointing this out! A fix has gone out for this now.
Hello! I'm Callum, a solo developer based in Australia. This is my first project, though I have been lurking around HN for a while now.
A privacy policy is in the works and will be put out for display ASAP.
Thanks for the feedback! Apologies for the issues you found, but I'll get onto fixing them.
Grammar correction and suggestions are something that are on the top of my feature list; I hope to have them released shortly!

Hey folks! I'm Callum, and I'm working on a way to practice a new language with an AI powered tutor.I've always found that the hardest part of learning a new language is finding someone to actually converse with. Even if a partner can be found, the pressure can mean that you are more focused on not making mistakes than on actually learning new grammar or vocabulary.The service that I have been...
