STUDY FLOW

From the word you met to the word on your tongue

A repeatable loop replaces scattered notes and the word lists you never revisit, carrying each word from your eyes to your mouth.

Analyse

Send a German word or sentence and get meaning, article, case form, pronunciation, and corrections in one pass.

02

Save

Pick only the useful results and file them into decks and folders as cards.

03

Shadow

Listen → wait → speak. Cues flow automatically, card after card.

04

SHADOWING + RHYTHM

German you only read stays silent.

Lingoban’s shadowing loop is not just playback. Each card follows the listen → wait → speak rhythm on its own, so you can repeat the same card as many times as it takes for the muscle memory to settle.

Three-step auto cue

Listen → wait → speak cues flow automatically, on a tempo you can hold.

Per-card tuning

Adjust front and back repeat counts and pause length per card.

Same loop everywhere

Web, mobile, and the browser extension share the exact same shadowing engine.

Shuffle and repeat all

Shuffle a whole deck for long-form spoken practice across topics.

Lingoban is more than a chat box. It is a study library where analysed sentences, cards, images, and review timing stay together.

  • Organise decks and folders by language, topic, exam, or routine.
  • Create cards from individual analysis results or a whole block of text.
  • Review forward, reverse, and with audio instead of rereading static lists.

AI TUTOR

Analysis over guessing — with correction notes.

The AI tutor analyses your words and sentences, explains in your own language why something sounds off, and offers a more natural German alternative. Important results flow straight into study cards.

Analysis over guessing

Meaning, article, case form, examples, and translation in one place.

Sounding native

Catches ‘technically correct but unnatural’ phrasing and rewrites it like a native speaker.

VISUAL MNEMONICS

Don’t memorise der / die / das. See them in colour.

Noun gender is the longest sticking point for German learners. Lingoban encodes der/die/das with colour and characters so it surfaces straight from the card.

der

Masculine noun

Red · flames, masculine guardian

der Himmel
die

Feminine noun

Blue · ice, feminine spirit

die Sonne
das

Neuter noun

Yellow · lightning, friendly robot

das Kind

RETENTION SCIENCE

Review when it actually matters.

Improvised repetition decays with time. FSRS aims for the moment right before you forget and keeps retention near 90% each round. New, learning, and due cards stay prioritised so you don’t waste time on words you already know.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is Lingoban?

Paste real German text. The AI breaks down meaning, grammar, gender, and examples, turns the useful parts into cards, reads them aloud, and schedules review with FSRS.

Which language can I learn?

German. The interface is available in German, English, and Korean.

Is it free to start?

Yes — create an account and start for free. Heavier AI usage has fair limits; AI study images and native audio use AI Credits.

How is review scheduled?

Lingoban uses FSRS, a modern spaced-repetition algorithm, to show each card right before you’d forget it — so your time goes to what you’re about to lose, not what you already know.

What are the der/die/das images?

Every German noun gets a gender-coded visual cue (der/die/das) on its card, so the article sticks through visual memory instead of rote rules.

Is my data private?

Yes. Lingoban follows EU GDPR. See the Privacy Policy and Impressum in the footer.
