Learn Arabic by talking

Verbsy is a speaking-first Arabic tutor you talk to out loud. It listens, answers, corrects what you got wrong, and remembers it for next time.

Arabic learners tend to stall where reading is fine and speaking is silent. Verbsy is only speaking: you talk, it answers, and it corrects the sounds that make you hard to follow.

How learning Arabic with Verbsy works

1
Tell the tutor what you want to be able to do in Arabic — order dinner, get through an interview, talk to family. It turns that into a goal with concrete steps.
2
Talk. Put your phone in your pocket and speak through your headphones while you walk or cook. The tutor answers out loud and corrects you as you go.
3
The words you stumbled on become flashcards drawn from your own conversations, and five skills are scored from how you actually spoke.

Arabic questions

No. Conversations are spoken, so you can start talking before you read comfortably. The script comes with the flashcards afterwards.

The tutor responds to what you actually said, so a sound that changed the word is obvious right away — and the words you keep missing come back in later conversations.

Yes. Beginners get slower speech, simpler sentences and more support in a language you already know, and the tutor moves further into Arabic as you keep up. You do have to be willing to speak from the first session — that is the whole method.

Verbsy is free to download and your first 30 minutes of conversation are free. That is a one-off allowance rather than a daily one. Verbsy Premium unlocks an hour of conversation a day at the price shown in the app.

No. Verbsy is built to be used with the screen off, through your headphones, while you commute, cook or walk. It is an iPhone app and needs iOS 16.1 or later.
