Learn German in Berlin

Standard German with a Berlin accent: Sie for strangers and officials, du in most cafés and bars, and local words like Schrippe for a bread roll and Späti for the corner shop that stays open late.

In Solvelingua you move to Berlin, find a home in Prenzlauer Berg, and learn German the way people there speak it: by talking with the baker, your landlord, your boss and your friends, by voice or by typing. Everyone remembers you, and gentle feedback after each conversation shows what to say next time.
