What we have added to Semantix and fixed, newest first.
Finishing onboarding takes you straight into your first lesson instead of the whole learning path. On a free account the last step now reads "You're all set" and puts the lesson button first.
Review's typing, grading and sound toggles now sit just above the card instead of crowding the top bar onto two lines, and the mock exam no longer shows two navigation bars.
Try it →A word you're still learning is now a tap, not a blank box: pick it from a few options, match new words to their meanings, and build sentences from word tiles. Once you've got a word right twice, you type it. Prefer typing from the start? Tap "I can type it".
Try it →If your browser translates pages for you, Semantix no longer crashes when it does. Drill questions and hints stay in their original language, so a translated page cannot give away the answer.
A new page gives everyone learning a language the same sentence each day, at A2-B1, in any of the 19 languages. Pick your language once and it is remembered; when you are signed in, solving it counts as today's practice for your streak and XP. Find it on your home screen.
Try today's sentence →Every blog post now ends with one beginner fill-in-the-blank in the post's language - or a language you pick on general posts - checked right on the page. Greek, Russian and Korean let you choose from a few words if you have no keyboard for the script yet.
Read the blog →Tell us when you're travelling, sitting an exam or moving, and your dashboard counts down the days and shows the pace that gets you through your level in time - about how many lessons a day. If your daily goal is short of that pace, it offers to raise it; you decide. Change or clear the date any time from your profile.
Set your date →Your home screen now shows the last few lessons and practice modes you opened in this language, so you can jump back into a review lesson or a favourite drill in one tap.
Go to your dashboard →Press Ctrl+K (or ⌘K on a Mac), or tap Search in the menu, to jump to any page, something you opened recently, something you saved, or any lesson you can open - just type part of its title.
Tap the bookmark beside a lesson's title, or on a grammar note, to keep it. Your Saved page (in the account menu) lists them by language, and you can reread a saved grammar note right there without finding the lesson again.
Open Saved →A1 grows from three units to six: Family & people, Home & neighbourhood, and Colours, clothes & likes. That is 12 new lessons, about 96 new words and 12 short grammar notes per language - possessives, saying your age, there is / there are, colours, likes. The new units come after the ones you have, so nobody loses their place.
Open your path →Every language except Spanish now has 80 cards at each of B1, B2 and C1 (up from about 60): everyday B1 words like rent, neighbours and insurance, B2 economy and civic vocabulary, and C1 register and idiom. Every new card comes with an example sentence, so it also works as a fill-in-the-blank drill.
See your cards →Russian and Korean A1 now open with an alphabet unit. Russian covers the letters that match English, the false friends (Р is r, Н is n, В is v) and the new shapes; Korean covers syllable blocks, the three kinds of consonant, vowels and batchim. Each one teaches through words you can already guess - такси, футбол, 바나나, 커피.
Start the alphabet →On your course map, A1 and A2 unit titles are now in English, and from B1 up they are in the language you are learning. Korean beginners no longer meet Hangul titles before the alphabet unit has taught them to read one.
See the map →Irish, Greek, Polish, Finnish, Romanian, Turkish, Welsh and Korean go from 18-24 conjugated verbs to 32-40 each, all checked by a second reviewer. Separately, every finding of a full review of our decks is fixed: 291 wrong or ambiguous glosses and level mismatches across all 19 languages.
Practise verbs →Catalan, Welsh, Greek, Finnish, Irish, Korean and Turkish lessons gain 154 new translation sentences, so they now carry as much translation practice as the other languages.
Try it →Once a lesson has used up its own new words, it keeps going with words from earlier lessons instead of stopping short - so a free lesson is as long as a paid one, and you review what you learned before.
Try it →Eleven comparison pages - Italian vs Spanish, Polish vs Russian, German vs Spanish and more - now say what you can carry from one language to the other, where they split, and which false friends to watch for. Three new pairs too: German vs Spanish, French vs German and Finnish vs Swedish.
Compare languages →Greek A1 now opens by teaching the alphabet: letters that look like English, false friends (ρ is r, ν is n), letters with no English twin and letter pairs that make one sound - each through a word you can decode, like ταξί and θέατρο.
Start the alphabet →At A1, Greek, Russian and Korean beginners can answer fill-in-the-blank, verb tables and card review by picking from a few words, instead of typing in a script their keyboard may not have. "I can type it" switches back to typing, everywhere at once.
Try it →New A1 words in Greek, Russian and Korean now show a reading in Latin letters underneath, so you can say a word before you can read its script.
Try it →If you are cancelling because you are not using Semantix enough, you can pause for three months instead. Billing stops, you keep access to the end of the period you paid for, billing restarts on its own, and your cards, streak and progress are all kept.
Manage your plan →The streak in the header now counts your days, not the server's. Before, a learner in the US could see the header and the dashboard disagree after 8 pm Eastern.
Try it →Every other learner's row on the leaderboards has a Block button. A blocked learner disappears from every board you see. You can undo it from Blocked learners on your profile.
Try it →The path map now shows what is inside each lesson - an icon for each kind of practice, the lesson's first words, unit banners with word and grammar-note counts, and a gate at each CEFR level - instead of a column of identical circles.
See the map →Catalan, Welsh, Greek, Finnish, Irish, Korean and Turkish lessons now teach as many words as the other languages: 63 more per language, inside the lessons you already have.
Try it →If something seems broken, /status shows whether the site, sign-in, billing, email and scheduled jobs are working - no account needed.
Check status →A bell in the header collects your notifications. On your profile you choose, for each kind (review reminders, streaks, tips, product news), whether it reaches you by email, push or the inbox.
Notification settings →Free accounts get the learning path, card review, decks, fill-in-the-blank, conjugation from our verb tables and speaking practice. The AI tutor and the features built on it are on Pro and Max.
Compare plans →Your rank now reads your lifetime XP instead of the last 90 days, so a month off no longer costs you ranks. The header shows your CEFR level, and a promotion gets a proper celebration.
Try it →The daily review reminder now lists every language you have cards waiting in, instead of naming only one.
Reminder settings →A typed simulation of the speaking part of a CEFR exam: three tasks at your level (an interview, a monologue, an opinion question or a role-play), each with a follow-up on what you said, then a report card on fluency, accuracy, range and coherence.
Try it →The Cards page now searches all your cards in a language, however many there are. Before, it stopped at the first 1,000.
Try it →Finish a session that takes you past your daily XP goal and you'll know it.
Semantix now has two paid plans, Pro ($19 a month) and Max ($39 a month). The old Lite plan is gone - it differed from Pro only in limits a typical learner never reached.
See plans →Each unit's checkpoint now offers a role-play on the topic you just studied, and every A2 lesson now explains its grammar, like A1 does.
Try it →The path now opens at the level your placement found instead of at lesson 1. If you are ready sooner than promotion allows, the level challenge - eight questions across your level and the next - moves you up straight away.
Try it →Lessons now include conjugation practice for the verbs they teach, so you produce the forms instead of only reading about them. Placement got twice as many questions per level, so it places you more accurately.
Try it →Fourteen languages gain two A2 units each, and every language gets a third C1 unit, Reporting and negotiating.
Try it →Pick one of sixteen avatars or upload your own photo. It shows in the header and on the leaderboards.
Try it →Share your weekly leaderboard rank as a card - "#3 this week in Spanish". It carries your rank and language, never your name.
Try it →The waitlist is gone: anyone can sign up and start learning.
