Every conversation becomes a lesson.

Talkish is a language exchange app for talking with native speakers around the world.
Your chats and corrections automatically become your own study material (we call them Passages).
You don't have to be perfect. The more you talk, the more sticks.

02PASSAGES

Your words become your study material.

New phrases from your chats — and your partners' corrections — are automatically turned into review cards (Passages).

  • With sources — every card remembers which conversation it came from. Memories make it stick.
  • Today's review — Talkish schedules when it's time to review. Just open and flip.
  • Community expressions — browse phrases born from other learners' conversations.

No more "I know I've looked this up before."

Screens shown are illustrative.

03CARDS

Cards like these, straight from your chats.

Words, phrases, corrected sentences — captured in the exact form they appeared in conversation.

04SUPPORT

You don't have to be perfect.
Support is built in.

  • Corrections with a "why" — every correction comes with a short note explaining the reason. Not just fixed — understood.
  • One-tap translation — translate messages you don't understand, right in the chat.
  • Voice messages — talk with your voice too, and work on your pronunciation.

05TIMELINE

Post it. Get it corrected.

Not up for one-on-one today? Post a line in the language you're learning — native speakers reply with corrections and comments. And those corrections flow straight into your Passages.

SAFETY

Talkish is not a dating app.

To keep Talkish a place for people who want to learn, three safeguards are built in from the start.

18+, learning only

Talkish is for people aged 18 and over. Using it for dating or romantic purposes is prohibited by our terms of service.

Report & block

Block anyone who doesn't feel right, right away. Reporting behavior that breaks the rules is built into the app, too.

Every account is phone-verified

Creating a Talkish account requires SMS phone verification. It's not a place where anyone can spin up endless anonymous accounts with just an email address.

Feeling safe to speak is what keeps you learning. Talkish is, and will stay, a place for language learners.
