Common questions
Quick answers about Noun Town's free language lessons.
Are the lessons really free?
Yes. Every lesson on noun.town/lessons/ is free, with no sign-up, no ads inside the lesson, and no time limit. You're welcome to share the links.
What languages can I learn?
Currently: Japanese, Spanish (Spain and Mexican), French, German, Italian, Korean, Chinese (Simplified), Russian, Greek, and Egyptian Arabic, all from English.
Do I need to install anything?
No. The lessons run in any modern browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) on phone, tablet or desktop. Audio plays directly from the page.
What level are these lessons?
The conversations are written for beginners and early intermediate learners (roughly A1–A2 on the CEFR scale). You'll meet the most useful everyday vocabulary and grammar patterns.
How are these different from a language app?
Each lesson is a single, focused conversation between named characters, like reading a short play with audio. Apps drill you in isolated phrases; here you see grammar and vocabulary in real context, with cultural notes baked in.
