🇫🇷 French · trip in days
Situations first
Café and bakery, meeting friends, settling into an artist residency, getting around. Say the line, hear the replies people actually give, and know how to ask them to repeat or slow down.
Early version · free while we build it with first users
Portaword starts from the languages you already know. Tell it where you're going and when; it splits the minutes you have each day between your goals: a short sprint for the trip that's close, steady growth for the one that's far.
No account needed for the samples.

🇪🇸 Spanish · trip in months
A short check skips what you already know. Then grammar gaps, Spain-vs-Mexico vocabulary and Madrid listening — Mexican Spanish counts as right; you just learn the Spain version too.
1
English, Spanish, Korean… Portaword uses them as bridges: cognates, false friends, the same polite forms.
2
One account, several languages. Each has its own level, progress and reviews. Change a date and the plan follows.
3
Five minutes or forty. Reviews come back before your departure, and the urgent trip gets priority without the other one stopping.
Portaword is being built with a small group of travellers, nomads and artists on residency. Leave your email to get access to new languages and cities as they open, and to tell us what you need.
