Korean starts to look different when you can see the letters inside each Hangul syllable block. Loquus brings writing references, word audio, lessons, and grammar into your practice. Give yourself time to read a word, hear it, and understand the sentence around it before moving on.
Hangul letters are arranged in syllable blocks rather than written as one long row of separate letters. Explore the alphabet reference and listen to its examples. As you learn a word, pay attention to its letters and the way they come together in the spoken form.
02
Pay attention to the ending
A Korean sentence ending can carry information about politeness and what the speaker is doing. Grammar Center gives you a place to look up those patterns and compare examples. Read a complete reply before focusing on a single ending, keeping the situation and listener in mind.
03
Listen again before replying
Spelling and sound do not always line up exactly when Korean sounds meet inside a word or phrase. Use available slow playback to take another listen. Practice with a lesson or guided exchange, then return to the Dictionary when a word needs a closer look.

Every word gets its own card.
Your first word is 안녕하세요 (annyeonghaseyo), meaning hello. Each new word comes with its meaning and audio at normal or very slow speed, plus a reading in Latin letters.

Notes when a word needs them
Then say it yourself.
Right after a new word, you repeat it after the voice. This is called shadowing, and it builds speaking habits from your very first lesson.
