A lesson with Camille from Nice: your turn to speak

8 languages

Learn any of them. Out loud.

Why Borne

You know more than
you can say.

Years of classes and a long streak of tapped answers, then someone asks a simple question and nothing comes out. Tapping doesn’t train that moment. Speaking does: often, out loud, with someone patient who tells you exactly what to fix.

A day with Borne

Ten minutes that fit any day.

  1. Your tutor checks in.

    A short note written by your tutor about what you talked about last time. Never more than two a day, and none after 10 pm.

    Sofía¿Y qué tal el concierto del sábado? Cuéntamelo hoy 🎸
    CamilleTa série de 12 jours ! Cinq minutes ce soir ? On parle de Nice 🌊
    Kenji今日は何を食べた?ラーメンの話、聞かせて 🍜
  2. You talk.

    Pick up today’s story episode, a scene, or anything on your mind. Your tutor follows your lead.

    A lesson in progress: your turn to speak

    Your recap: what you said, how a native would say it, and the words worth keeping.

Something new every day

Stories, the news, and 32 scenes to play.

  • Story episodes. A new chapter each day, played out with your tutor, with missions to complete as you talk.
  • Today’s news, at your level. Three real stories a day, rewritten for where you are, ready to talk about.
  • Scenes. Order at a café, check into a hotel, rent a bike, argue about football.
  • Open chat. Or skip all of it and just talk about your day.
Today: the day's story episode and news Practice: talk about anything or pick a scene
Progress: streak, minutes spoken and words mastered

Progress

Progress you can hear.

Your streak, the minutes you’ve spoken and the words you’ve mastered, week by week. The real proof comes later: the first time you answer without translating in your head.

Your next language

Learn the next one through the last.

Once a language feels like yours, make it your base. Switch Borne to the language you’ve learned, and your next tutor explains, translates and corrects in it. Every new language keeps the last one sharp.

Is my tutor a real person?

No. Your tutor is an AI, so you can practice any time, as much as you like, without feeling judged.

I’m a complete beginner. Will this work?

Yes. Beginners start with short, simple exchanges, and your tutor uses English (or your language) whenever you need it. The level rises with you.

How much does it cost?

Your first lesson is free, and then you get 3 days free. After that, choose monthly or yearly. The app shows the price for your country before you pay.

How do I cancel?

On your iPhone, open Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions, then Borne. You keep access until the end of the period you paid for.

I updated and had to sign in again. Is my subscription still there?

Yes. Updating the app doesn’t cancel your subscription. Sign in with the same Apple or Google account and your plan comes back, or open Profile → Your plan and tap Restore Purchases.

What happens to what I say?

Your speech is turned into text so your tutor can answer and correct you. We never sell your data or use it for ads. The details are in our Privacy Policy.
