English · A1 → C2

Learn English by walking through a world, not filling in blanks.

Anglia is an archipelago of six islands, A1 to C2. You walk, you talk to the people who live there, and the language happens instead of being studied.

Harbor Village in 3D: grass, red-roofed houses and a lighthouse in the distance, with the joystick on the left and the button to talk to Amelia on the right.

Harbor Village (A1). The world plays in landscape; the rest of the app stays portrait.

Spaced repetition works. The problem is that it's boring.

Walking to the baker to practise food words is a reason to come back tomorrow. A to-do list isn't.

A world, not a menu

Six islands with terrain, roads, buildings and vegetation. You walk with a joystick, or tap the ground to go there.

The people teach you

Everyone in the world has their own lesson. You walk up, you talk, and you learn what that person knows: the baker food, the captain greetings.

Progress is visible

Come back to an island and you can tell at a glance who you have already talked to, without opening a menu.

How it works

Three things happen, in this order.

01
You start without signing up.

A short placement test — grammar, listening and a couple of spoken sentences — decides which island you start on. If you don't grant the microphone, it swaps those steps for listening ones and tells you so.
02
You walk up to someone and talk.

Their lesson opens: vocabulary, grammar, sentence building, listening, reading, writing and pronunciation. The characters in the world are the lessons — there is no separate menu.
03
The engine decides what to review.

FSRS picks what you're about to forget. Each island's dock is where that gets repaired, and World-Shift shows how much of your world is already in English.

The lighthouse exam

When you master an island, the lighthouse examines you.

24 questions, across the six skills.
About 35 minutes, with one break allowed.
You pass at 80%. If you don't, the lighthouse rests for 48 hours before a retake.
It's graded on the server and issues a certificate with a verification code.

Plainly: the LinguaQuest certificate is not an accredited exam and is not equivalent to an official one. It's our own measurement against the CEFR framework.

Six islands, A1 → C2

Each island is a CEFR level and changes character with it: from the harbour village to the city, the campus, the financial capital and the snowy peak.

A1Harbor VillageThe pier, the bread, the greetings.

A2Market TownBuying, ordering, asking prices.

B1Midtown CityPaperwork, transport, plans.

What it brings

Real spaced repetition

FSRS, the same engine on the web and on the phone. What you review in one place counts in the other, because it's the same account and the same state.

Works with no signal

All the A1→C2 content ships inside the app. The account only exists to sync.

Pronunciation, in your voice

Accent Mirror listens to how you say it and flags the sounds that give Spanish speakers away. Recognition happens on the device.

World-Shift

As you progress, the people of Anglia speak to you more and more in English, and the signs change with you.

No account to start

You come in as a guest. If you later want your progress on another device, you add an email and a password.

Two honest notes. The microphone is optional: without it the app still works and the placement test says so, and we don't store your audio. And the app's own interface is in Spanish — English is what you learn here, not what you navigate in.

Start

Anglia is already walkable.

It runs in the browser right now, with nothing to install. The iOS app is coming soon.
