Read and listen

Train your ear while you read

Every article in Verva is written at a specific level, so you always have something that feels just right. You can read today's news, short stories, or cultural pieces about the places where your target language is spoken. While you read, press play to hear a native-speaker narration and train your ear alongside your eyes. This approach — known as comprehensible input — is the same principle behind LingQ, Dreaming Spanish, and decades of language-acquisition research: you learn best when you understand most of what you are reading or hearing, and the brain picks up patterns naturally.

One article, many levels

Tap the level selector at the top of any article to switch between available reading levels. A simpler version rephrases the same content with more common vocabulary and shorter sentences. A harder version adds nuance and complexity. You never need to leave the article to find something at the right difficulty.

Train your ear while you read

Press play and follow along. Each article includes high-quality audio so you can listen as you read, replay sentences, and build listening comprehension at your own pace. The audio highlights each word as it is spoken, helping you connect sounds to written forms.

Always something new

When you finish an article or just want a change, swipe to the next one. Verva curates a fresh feed every day so there is always another article ready, whether you have two minutes or twenty.

Verstehen

Understand words and phrases

Every word in an article is tappable. Tap once for an instant translation plus a breakdown of the grammar that makes it work — tense, mood, gender, case, and more. Long-press a phrase to see how the full expression translates in context. Each grammar sheet includes a badge you can tap to explore that grammar point in depth with your tutor.

Tap any word

Tap a word to open a grammar sheet with its dictionary form, translation, and grammatical details. You will see the part of speech, verb conjugation information, noun gender and number, and usage notes. Everything is presented in your base language so you understand not just what the word means, but how it works.

Long-press for full expressions

Some meanings only emerge across several words. Long-press a phrase to see how the complete expression translates and how the grammar works across the whole unit. This is especially useful for idioms, compound verb forms, and expressions that do not translate word-for-word.

Explore any grammar point

Every grammar sheet includes a badge for the relevant grammar topic — like subjunctive mood or relative clauses. Tap the badge to start a conversation with your tutor about that exact concept, with the word or phrase from the article already provided as context.

Save what matters

Save individual words, full phrases, entire articles, and even grammar concepts. Your saved items feed directly into practice exercises and spaced-review sessions, so the things you looked up become the things you learn permanently.

Ask anything, anytime

Verva includes a tutor that you can ask anything while you read. When a translation or grammar sheet is not enough, type a follow-up question without leaving the article. The tutor already knows what you were looking at, so you do not need to repeat yourself.

Ask anything, anytime

Ask for a simpler explanation. Ask for more examples. Ask how to pronounce a word. Ask for comprehension questions about the article you just read. Ask the tutor to quiz you. Every question keeps the current word, phrase, or article as context, so you get relevant answers that build on what you are already studying.

Go deep on grammar

Tap any grammar badge in a word or phrase sheet to ask the tutor about that specific concept. The tutor can explain the rule, show you patterns, give you examples from the article, and help you understand why a particular form was used in a particular sentence.

Turn gaps into progress

Every interaction with the tutor can generate saved items, practice exercises, or review material. Struggled with a verb form? Save it. Curious about a grammar rule? Create a practice exercise. The tutor helps you close the loop from confusion to competence.

Exercises that adapt to you

Practice in Verva is not random. Every exercise is built from the words, phrases, and grammar points you actually encountered while reading. When you look something up or save it, it feeds directly into a personalised exercise set. Each exercise gives you detailed feedback — not just right or wrong, but an explanation of why the answer works and how to think about it next time.

Exercises that adapt to you

Exercises cover vocabulary, grammar, sentence construction, and comprehension. They use the exact words and grammar from articles you have read, so the content is always relevant. Get stuck? The feedback tells you exactly what to review.

Detailed, actionable feedback

Every answer comes with an explanation. A correct answer reinforces why it works. An incorrect answer explains the mistake and shows the correct form, with links back to the relevant grammar point so you can explore further with your tutor if you want.

Spaced repetition that works

Words and grammar points you have saved come back for review at scientifically-optimised intervals. Items you know well appear less often. Items you struggle with appear more frequently. This spaced-repetition system works in the background, and you can start a review session whenever you have a spare moment. Each review session adapts to your current retention levels.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

Welches Niveau brauche ich für Verva?

Verva ist für fortgeschrittene Lernende konzipiert (B1+). Wenn du einfache Texte mit etwas Hilfe lesen kannst, bist du bereit. Jeder Inhalt ist in einer mittleren und einer fortgeschrittenen Version verfügbar.

Wie unterscheidet sich Verva von Duolingo?

Duolingo lehrt durch spielerische Übungen mit isolierten Sätzen. Verva hilft dir, durch echte Inhalte zu lernen — Nachrichten, Geschichten, kulturelle Artikel — mit einem Assistenten, der alles erklärt, was du nicht verstehst. Es ist für Lernende, die Tiefe wollen, keine Serien.

Welche Sprachen kann ich lernen?

Verva unterstützt Englisch, Französisch, Deutsch, Italienisch und Spanisch. Du kannst jede dieser Sprachen von jeder anderen lernen — wähle deine Zielsprache und die Sprache, die du bereits kennst.

Wie funktioniert der Assistent?

Tippe auf ein beliebiges Wort oder eine Phrase, um Übersetzung und Grammatik zu sehen. Willst du mehr wissen? Stelle jede Frage — warum steht dieses Verb in dieser Zeit? Ist das formell oder informell? Wie würde ein Muttersprachler das sagen? Der Assistent erklärt, übersetzt nicht nur.

Ist Verva kostenlos?

Verva bietet eine kostenlose Stufe mit Zugang zu allen Inhalten und Audio. Verva Max entfernt Grenzen für Fragen, Übungsgenerierung und intelligentes Feedback zu deinen Antworten.
