Duendillo keeps track of every word and grammar rule you learn, predicts when each one will start to fade, and brings it back just in time. Short lessons, unlimited practice, explanations in your language.
Free during early access. No sign-up needed yet.
Two models work behind every session. You never see the maths — only the right exercise at the right moment.
Every answer updates an estimate of each grammar skill. Topics you have mastered step aside; the shaky ones come back more often.
Each word has its own memory curve. Duendillo schedules a review for the moment you are about to forget it — not a day too early, not a week too late.
Exercises are picked so that you succeed most of the time but still have to think. New words arrive at the pace you choose.
This is how exercises feel in the app: instant feedback, forgiving with typos, strict where an accent changes the meaning.
In the app, every answer also updates your skill map and the review plan of each word.
Lessons take 10–15 minutes: a bit of theory, a few new words, practice — and a mixed review at the end.
Sounds, stress and survival phrases.
