๐ฃ๏ธ Speak to fight
Monsters attack with questions in the language you're learning. Answer out loud, or type if you'd rather: a spoken answer lands a critical hit, and the better your pronunciation, the harder it hits.

Monsters attack with questions in the language you're learning. Answer out loud, or type if you'd rather: a spoken answer lands a critical hit, and the better your pronunciation, the harder it hits.
โก A quick word you know builds a combo. ๐ฅ A heavy phrase hits hard, but a miss hurts more. ๐ก๏ธ Defending by ear blocks the next hit.
With ๐ฏ detailed coaching (free with an account, once accounts open: soon), the game scores each word and sound you say and lets you hear it said right before you try again. Great pronunciation earns up to triple XP.
Every character speaks their lines. ๐ Repeat one, ๐ข slow it down, or hear it ๐งโ๐ซ clearly until you catch every word.
Each language has its own people and legends to beat: the Chupacabras in Spanish, the Tarasque in French, the Gumiho in Korean, the Bakunawa in Tagalog, the Thuแปng Luแปng in Vietnamese. Shop and order food by ear, take on quests, and fly to cities abroad.
Dress your hero, decorate your house, raise a pet, read stories, play the radio's original songs in your language, and duel your friends.
Most language apps have you tap and type. Real conversations need your mouth to know the words too, and that only comes from saying them. In Swordspeak, speaking out loud is how you win, so you say hundreds of words and phrases without noticing, one battle at a time.
Every language, place, battle, lesson and story is free. Short ads appear at natural breaks (none in your first 10 minutes, at most 8 an hour), and you can choose to watch an ad for a reward. โก Coaching energy covers the extras that cost us money, detailed pronunciation scoring and the AI tutor, and it refills by itself. Speaking and typing are always free.

Yes, right in your phone's browser. Add it to your home screen and it opens like an app. Speaking works in Chrome, Edge and Safari. On an iPhone or iPad, the home-screen app keeps its own save: a guest's hero stays in Safari, so add it before you start.
Your browser's own speech recognition listens. With ๐ฏ detailed coaching, the recording goes to Microsoft Azure to score each sound, and we don't keep it. The privacy policy has the details.
Anyone 13 or older who wants to speak a language, not just read it, from your first words to real conversations.
