All 7 language skills in one place
Knowing a language is seven skills. Lingo7 trains them together instead of one at a time, so each one pulls the others along.
Reading
Read the original or an adapted version with the translation right beside it – fast, and without a dictionary.
Listening
Audiobooks and a listen-while-you-read mode – one of the most effective ways to train your ear.
Vocabulary
New words stick as you read, without drilling them. Exercises and spaced repetition lock them in for the long run.
Grammar
The best way to absorb grammar is to watch the rules do their work inside a real sentence.
Writing
AI chat: you discuss what you just read, so there's always something to write about. It helps you shape the thought and catches your mistakes.
Speaking
Shadowing: you repeat after the narrator out loud and build fluency, rhythm and intonation.
Pronunciation
Pronunciation exercises help you move your accent closer to the way a native speaker sounds.
The app will tell you what to do today
It picks the right activity at the right moment – read, repeat out loud, lock in words or talk a chapter over with AI. You never have to decide where to start or what comes next.

How to learn Malay from books: five steps
No elaborate method. One clear cycle, with content good enough to carry you through it.
Pick your content
Bestseller summaries, classics, short stories – by mood, by level, by the time you have.
Read with parallel translation
Original and translation side by side; tap a word for its meaning, its audio, or to save it.
Learn the words
Saved words come back in exercises that work different kinds of memory, spaced out over time.
Listen and repeat out loud
Every sentence has audio: listen, then shadow the narrator – that's where pronunciation and intonation come from.
Talk the book over with AI
The AI goes through the book with you – you practice writing and speaking, and learn to put thoughts into a new language.
Why most language apps get abandoned – and this one doesn't
The problem was never your discipline. It was the format.
Lists and flashcards with no context. Gone again by tomorrow.
You see how a word behaves in context, so it sticks without being forced.
It gets dull, motivation drops, and the app sits unopened after week one.
Bestsellers, strange true stories, popular science – material you come back to on your own.
Unknown words everywhere, the plot slips away, you quit on page one.
The translation sits right beside the text, and a book that's too hard can be rewritten at your level.
A fixed library. No way to bring your own book.
Hand the app the books you love and the documents you need, and it gives them back with parallel translation, audio and word review.
Nowhere to speak or write, so the skill never sets.
You talk over the book you just finished with AI, so there's no topic to invent. When you have something to say, saying and writing it gets easy.

5 minutes a day: one good fact and a few new words
Space, psychology, business, nature, technology – hundreds of short articles on any subject. Learn something new every day, and the language comes with it.
Upload your own book or text and learn from that
Upload any file and Lingo7 turns it into study material with parallel translation and audio. After that it's the usual loop: you read, listen, learn words, work on speech through shadowing and talk it over with AI.
Bestsellers in the original
Harry Potter, Dune, A Game of Thrones – read the books you've been meaning to get to, in the language you're learning.
The language your work and studies need
Work documents, papers, exam material – learn Malay in the field you're actually in right now.
My favorite recipe: take Harry Potter and do a chapter a day – read it, listen to it, learn the new words, talk it over with AI. Six months at an hour or two a day and you come out of A2 at B2.
Read any book – rewritten to fit you
Vocabulary and grammar still too heavy? Lingo7 rewrites the book in simpler language – same story, same characters, lighter sentences.
Lingo7 is for you if you...
What gets in the way of learning Malay – and what Lingo7 does about it
It isn't a question of ability. It's a question of format.
Shadowing means repeating phrases after the narrator out loud, on your own, with nobody grading you. That's where pronunciation comes from. In the AI chat you work on phrasing in writing, and it corrects you gently.
Instead of interchangeable lessons: books, bestsellers and articles on subjects you'd read about anyway. When the content pulls, coming back is easy.
One tap saves a word out of its sentence, then it comes back as a card on a spaced schedule. Remembering stops being a matter of luck.
Parallel translation with the sentences lined up – no jumping into a translator every other line.
Listen-and-read mode ties the sound of a word to its spelling and its meaning. Your ear gets used to the language naturally.
Short formats and quick sessions – even 5-10 minutes a day keeps you in the rhythm.
49 languages, rare ones included. And you learn any of them from your own native language.
If you can read, it suits you. No prior knowledge, grammar or preparation required – start with any book at your level.
49 languages, from the common to the rare
Learn any language from your own native one – not only through English, the way most apps make you.
49 × 48 = 2352 language pairs. Pick any combination: the language you're learning, and the language you read the translation in.

We didn't expect you to like it this much
But facts are facts – here's what people write on Google Play.
Great app. Huge plus that one book can come in several English levels. Waiting impatiently for the update!
I got the annual subscription and it's very good value. This really is a wonderful app! An excellent resource for improving your English. From adults to children — not just useful but necessary.
I needed Portuguese to work with a team in Brazil. Reading + audio at the same time is very effective. After 6 weeks I could already follow the meetings.
Always wanted to learn German, and in this app everything is much more approachable and clear than in other apps like it. App is 10 out of 10.
I use the read-with-audio feature and it's been a real breakthrough for me. The audio tracks are clear and well synced. Fantastic tool for language learners.
The idea and the execution get an A+. Right now it's the only app with Serbian books. Well done! Thank you!
This really is a wonderful app for me as a teacher. I recommend it to my students. Very pleasant. I recommend it to everyone.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. There's material at every level, and parallel translation makes the text understandable from the very start.
Any level. The parallel translation removes the need for a dictionary, and a book that is too hard can be rewritten simpler – the same story and characters, but the grammar and words of your level. Everything is marked A1 to C1.
Yes. Short articles, book summaries and word cards are made for short daily sessions.
49 languages, and you can learn any of them from your own native language – not only through English. That's 49 × 48 = 2352 language pairs, rare languages included.
Instead of disconnected exercises, you learn Malay from content that interests you, with every skill tied into one loop: you read and listen, save words for spaced review, pick up grammar in context, work on speech through shadowing and on writing in the AI chat. And you can upload your own book or document.
Yes. For speech there's shadowing – you repeat phrases after the narrator out loud and build pronunciation and intonation. For writing there's the AI chat: you discuss what you've read, and it helps you phrase things and finds your mistakes. Live conversation with a person isn't there yet – it's planned.
PDF, EPUB, FB2 and TXT. Upload work documents, favorite books or articles – the app builds the parallel translation, adds audio and collects the new words into the trainer.
