Sound familiar?
You’ve put in the hours. So why won’t the words come out?
Your mind goes blank
You’d recognise the phrase instantly on a page. But with someone waiting for an answer, it’s gone.
Nothing seems to stick
You review the same words again and again, and a week later you’re back to square one.
You can only get by
You can order a coffee and ask for directions, but the conversations you actually want are still out of reach.
Speaking makes you nervous
So you put it off, and miss out on the practice that would make it easier.
Recognising a phrase and being able to say it are two different skills. Most study only trains the first one.
Imagine your next conversation
The words are just there.
Someone asks what you think, but this time, you don’t build the sentence word by word in your head.
You automatically start to combine reusable phrases and start talking about what matters to you: “It depends… I would say that… in my experience…”
- Fewer blank moments mid-conversation
- The confidence to start conversations yourself
- What you learned last month is still there
- Start combining phrases to speak easily
Most apps train you to recognise. Audioma trains you to speak.
Keep your course, your tutor or your favourite app. Audioma covers the part they leave out.
Typical language apps
- Read a word, tap the right answer
- You recognise words but rarely say them
- Long sentences you’ll never actually use
- You need to sit down and look at a screen
Audioma
- Hear a prompt, say the answer out loud
- You practise saying things, not just recognising them
- Short, useful phrases you can use straight away
- Hands-free, with your phone in your pocket
How it works
Your phone asks. You answer out loud.
Audioma uses audio to prompt you to speak. You hear a short phrase in English and get a moment to say it in your target language before you hear the answer. It’s the same thing a real conversation asks of you: hear something, find the words, say them.
- 1 Hear the prompt in English
- 2 Say it out loud from memory
- 3 Hear the answer in a natural voice, and say it again
Why short phrases work
Bite-sized phrases your brain can actually hold on to
Your working memory can only juggle a few things at once. Long textbook sentences overload it, so very little sticks. Audioma uses short chunks of real speech instead: the building blocks fluent speakers reach for without thinking.
- Spanish El problema es que… The problem is…
- French Je vois ce que tu veux dire. I know what you mean.
- German Das kommt darauf an. It depends.
- Japanese 実は… jitsu wa… Actually…
- Mandarin 说实话… shuō shíhuà… To be honest…
- Spanish Por otro lado… On the other hand…
Learn enough of them and you stop translating word by word. You just reach for the phrase.
Fits into your day. Stays in your head.
Phrases come back before you forget them
Spaced repetition schedules every review for you, with longer gaps as each phrase sticks. You just press play.
Practise anywhere
It keeps playing with your screen locked, so the walk to work or the washing-up becomes speaking practice.

Questions
Who is Audioma for?
Learners who genuinely want to learn a language instead of wasting time on gamified apps. It’s designed to get you ready for conversations by helping you remember vocabulary and practice saying it out loud.
Which languages can I learn?
Spanish (with Spain or Latin American voices), French, German, Japanese and Mandarin Chinese. Japanese and Mandarin include romanisation.
Do I have to create my own phrases?
No. There are over 400 ready-made phrases per language. You can add your own whenever you want something specific.
Does it work with my screen locked?
Yes. Press play, lock your phone and put it away. You can pause from the lock screen or your headphones.
Does it check my pronunciation?
No, the beauty of Audioma is you can practice without looking at a screen. You hear the answer straight after you’ve said it, so you can compare and adjust your pronunciation.
Does it replace conversation practice?
No, but it will get you ready to start having conversations instead of tapping gamified apps. It’ll be easier to use phrases you’ve already practiced saying out loud.
What’s a “block”?
It’s the phrase you are trying to learn. The app is built often using chunks with example sentences of how you can use them. By combining these into different combinations, you can express yourself more freely than rote memorisation of set sentences. Audioma lets you add your own phrases to remember whatever you need.
