Some I've tried/heard of (sorted by amount I've used them):

  • Language Transfer (Audio-based course in the format of a teacher-student conversation with explanation of concepts etc. Completely free but takes donations)
  • Clozemaster (Mostly fill in the right missing word, small challenges format)
  • Memrise (Memorizing common phrases, spoken by a cast of real people with distinct dialects etc.)
  • Mango (More feature-rich, similar to Duolingo but better IMO. Many libraries offer this, worth looking into)
  • Babbel (Barely touched this one but think it's similar to Duo)
  • Lingonaut (New thing, don't think it's live yet but I think it's focused around community-driven features that Duolingo cut out to replace with AI)
