User Reviews for Memrise Easy Language Learning

Please make other options available

I am a new 18 year old college student and wanted to be able to learn new languages on my own time and this app looked promising. For the most part it is. I can say that i have learned some helpful words and romanization for the words, however, as amazing as this app is I find it incredibly frustrating that I cannot proceed without paying absurd amounts of money per month. I signed up for a free trial which in my opinion should mean that i have free reign of the app for the duration of a week. Unfortunately I am only able to take the first lessen, everything else is locked and if I wish to move on an add pops up on my screen to pay for the pro version. I understand that it is a way for the makers to get paid for the app but if the app is free then I should be able to believe that it will stay free. As an educational app that I know many people are using for their own benefit and growth there should be a way for individuals to use the app without having to pay so much. Even if that means that they can only do a lesson each day at least they can proceed to learn, and if they want to do more like an entire section then they could pay a small fee around about 5 to 10 dollars. I just find it slightly unfair that this app is shown as a free learning app and after being on it for 10 minutes it wants you to pay 20, 30, 50 dollars. The app is great but that main factor is what makes me dislike it immensely.

Getting better and better

I’ve been using Memrise for years.. I started way back when anyone could make a learning deck and almost left when they took that feature away and made it exclusively their own learning decks. And while I do wish they would in some way reincorporate that feature I am glad that I stayed (and became a pro member) because everything else they’ve done with the app keeps getting better and better. I love the new grammar learning sections so you’re actually learning grammar rules and not just memorizing vocabulary, and I really hope they expand that and add audio to it. I also really love the learning with locals sections, and I really hope they expand those as well. That’s probably the most effective thing around for hearing how a native speaker would actually say what you’re learning. All in all, this is one of the best language learning tools out there. I would (and do) choose it over duolingo anytime (especially seeing duolingos new model). Combining memrise with something like Michel Thomas audio, some native books and movies, and an app that connects you to native speakers, and you can learn a language from scratch to fluent in 6-12 months.

amazing! but i have one issue

i love this app so much!! i’ve had it for about 20 hours and i was getting excited to do my next session of learning korean. unfortunately, i can’t proceed because it wants me to pay. just when i found the PERFECT app to learn a language with, it turns out it isn’t actually perfect. i unfortunately cannot pay because i don’t have any money because i’m a minor. i love absolutely love to keep learning with this app, but now i can’t. i would love for this app to be just free with ads with the choice of paying for extra features, but now i’m completely blocked from learning a language that i’ve wanted to learn for years. i’ve tried to learn korean multiple times with many apps and this app actually seems like it’s perfect for me, but now i can’t use it anymore. i understand that’s how you make money, but ads are also a way to make money, so why not just do that instead and leave people the option of they want to pay for extra features? let’s say maybe you can only learn a certain amount every day, but if you pay, you can learn as much as you want. see? that would be so much better. i’m actually so sad now that i can’t use this app anymore because it’s so good and i’ve never started to learn a language this fast on my own with an app. i hope you can maybe fix this so i can keep going!!

Structured to help you memorize

I like that the app follows a technique so that you’re always learning new words while helping you to retain stuff you learned previously. If you take a break for too long then you have to review more which makes sense since you tend to forget things after long periods of not practicing. You can also omit words from the review that you’re 100% confident about so you can focus more on new content. It’s fun and easy because the app keeps track of the things you struggle to memorize and stresses more on it so you get it down quicker. You don’t have to turn back pages or highlight anything or remember where you left off. What’s also great about it, is you can choose which subjects to focus on to cater to your lifestyle or interests. I gave it four stars because I wish it had picture or situational references since I’m more of a visual learner and also since that’s how we all learned our very first language before we all knew how to read…for example, a picture of someone waving and saying 안녕하세요 would help me to recognize when I would say this and burn a picture in my mind to a word rather than having to memorize two different words that mean the same thing. In that case, we learn to “think” in the foreign language instead of our own…if that makes any sense.

Choose this one

I have downloaded and tried all the Spanish apps and this one is by far the best. There are several things I like about it: 1) It has lots of repetition and review of previous lessons, which is really what you need to learn a language. I have taken a Spanish class and used apps and they want to move you along so fast that you forget what you learned before. 2) The quality of the videos with local people is better and holds your attention more than any of the other apps, and gives you multiple different dialects to hear and the body language that goes along with it. This is probably the most natural way to learn other than actually being with people speaking Spanish. 3) They give you the basic meaning translation and the literal translation which I really appreciate. Even Spanish textbooks will not do this which I find frustrating. They want you to memorize the meaning without actually understanding the words you are saying. I feel if you want to understand a language you need to know exactly what you are saying. Thank you! Nobody elae does this. 4) The subscription fee is reasonable, and they don’t constantly harass you. They give you a good sample before they ask you to subscribe. There are lots of other apps that charge more and are way less quality. I am really happy I found this one.

Great Japanese Course—But No Katakana?

When it was on sale I purchased a year-long subscription to the app and I’ve been really happy with it so far! It has a lot of great features and is intuitive to use but there are a few things I’ve been wondering about.I majored in Japanese in college so using the Japanese II course in the app has been mostly review, which is fine, and I’m excited to get to Japanese III to see more new material, but so far the app has included no usage of katakana, and has only been teaching kanji separate from the vocab and grammar taught in the app. Ultimately words written in katakana are never practically written in hiragana, and while it’s been handy learning the kanji individually, I guess I just hope the app begins integrating both in more fully with the vocabulary and grammar being taught. I’d like to renew my subscription for next year if it seems there’ll be more to learn from it, but I suppose I’m wondering if a developer has any information on if I just haven’t gotten far enough in the lessons to see katakana and kanji become actually integrated or if there’s a plan for that in the future and if a Japanese IV is perhaps in the works?So for anyone who’s looking for an app with a good Japanese course, this is definitely the best I’ve seen, but it still feels like there’s an amount missing that you see available intermediate Japanese text and workbooks.

What I was missing with Duolingo - but too pricy

I love Duolingo and use it every day, but I find some languages on the app are better set up than others. When I started learning Danish, I kept using it as obsessively as I had with other languages, but I found that something was missing. Memrise fills in the gap with native speakers in brief clips, reinforcing the correct pronunciation I’d been struggling with mastering on the Duolingo app. It’s also so helpful to see phrases and words in repetition on this app, which helps enormously with memorizing new words. I’m going to use both of these apps in tandem and I’m extremely excited to start using Memrise as part of my daily routine and to try out other languages on the app as well. I’m only on level two but I love it so far!EDIT: However, I think it is incredibly pricy for the limited amount of words that are available. The highest level will get you some elementary vocabulary, but 60 a year or 9 dollars a month is just far too expensive for something that does not get you in depth understanding of the language. It is set up incredibly well but until the developers offer a higher level of fluency and additional levels I can’t imagine myself paying for it, which is very disappointing.

An incredible app

This app is simply stunning not only in its effectiveness but also simply the way it looks and feels when you use it. I used to use Duolingo only and now I simply use that app to compliment this one! Another great aspect would be that you don’t have to necessarily pay to learn, you can learn everything you need for free but at the same time you can purchase the premium membership (a membership, might i add, that is definitely worth it) so as to enhance your experience and learn faster. I have been referring my friends to use this app and they all seem to like it. Personally I have been using it for French for maybe a few months now, and i simply love the program, and I plan to use it to learn german starting around the new year. I was also wondering if perhaps you could add in some more languages, my key example being Hindi, as both myself and friends (and I’m sure many others who use this app) would be thrilled to see more languages added. So to put it simply, everyone I know who uses this app as well as myself simply adore it, and want to thank, and congratulate you, on your tremendous effort you have put into it, so as to help us all learn, and better ourselves.

Best Learning App!!!

Memrise is really good! It has similar learning styles with other apps, the flash card style memorization, but it also has audio and the “robots” saying the words sound very human, they are male and female voices so you can catch some of the nuances of each. One of the best features is it has video of natives saying the words. You can keep repeating the video until you have really understood the words. This helped immensely in my Japanese lessons. The interface is really good too, easy to use, intuitive for practicing specific things, you can focus on just listening, spelling/writing/reading even your own pronunciation. They recently added video of writing the hiragana and katakana. Now I can see the stroke order, and practice reading people’s handwriting and have more ideas of what it’s gonna look like on a billboard or sign here in Japan. I’m really really pleased with this app. Oh, and to top it off, you can download the lessons so they will be available offline. I really can study anywhere. I thought 60$ for the year was reasonably priced, but I was bummed I didn’t see the 100$ unlimited, I think I would have liked to have bought that instead. This app beats the others, in my opinion by a long shot. You have to download all the free ones and practice each just to get a similar well roundedness that Memrise has, and then you still won’t get the most useful feature, the videos. I would recommend it to everyone trying to learn Japanese!!! Go Memrise!!!

Annoyingly Effective

This is coming from someone who has studied Japanese in college. I decided to use this to review and hopefully learn some new things. If you already know a good amount of Japanese already just skip to Japanese 2. The Japanese at this level is still fairly basic but it provides a lot of Kanji to learn and vocabulary as well. I think the key part of this app that may benefit a lot of people is its heavy use of vocals, which includes *some* examples from native speakers as well. Most of the vocal examples are slow and chopped up which would help break things down for new learners, but your key examples of how you should speak come from the short clips of actual Japanese people. The greatest (and yet annoying) part of this app is just how much you review material. Every time you have a lesson where you learn something new, you will have like 2 lessons of review before you learn something else. I say it’s annoying because I already know a lot so I don’t feel like I need to review things a million times, but in all honesty this method drills the knowledge into your brain effectively. If you want to get the most out of this make sure you repeat back everything you hear so you can learn it faster and retain it. Solid app so far.
