Made for moments like these

Some prepare you for real life. Some pick up from yesterday. All help you say what you actually mean.

  • Day one in Italian

    You said:
    Hi! I want to learn Italian.
    Pingo

    Ciao! Let's start simple: how to say hello, who you are, and why you're learning. We'll go piano piano — slowly.

  • Saying what you love in Italian

    Pingo

    Tell me one thing you really love. Try Adoro…

    You said:
    Adoro la pasta fatta in casa.
  • Picking Italian back up

    You said:
    Cosa facciamo oggi?
    Pingo

    Yesterday the congiuntivo got you a little. Let's pick it back up — con calma.

  • Before Florence in Italian

    You said:
    I'm going to Florence in October.
    Pingo

    Che bello! Let's practice ordering Un cappuccino, per favore and asking Dov'è il duomo?

  • Talking about your day in Italian

    You said:
    Sono stanco.
    Pingo

    Good. Now let's make it sound more natural: Sono stanco perché ho avuto una giornata lunga. What made your day long?

  • Sunday lunch at nonna's in Italian

    You said:
    Ciao, nonna!
    Nonna

    Vieni, vieni! Siediti, c'è la pasta. Hai mangiato oggi?

  • “I've been learning Italian on Duolingo for 4 years about 10 minutes a day. I had no one to practice listening and speaking with. This app filled that hole in my learning and the feedback is actually useful.”

  • “This is what I've been waiting for to learn to speak better in Italian. $99 for the year is a steal. Great recognition, no bugs, great balance between letting me reply and correcting my errors after the session.”

    lucasbarnes2App Store
  • “By far the smartest, most intuitive AI language partner available. The only one that speaks slow enough for me to understand and feels realistic enough to be an actual conversation.”

  • “I find this app to be the best way of learning a language because it's just like having a language teacher, but more flexible around your schedule and way cheaper too.”

    HondaR1derApp Store
  • “Langua, Praktika, Speak, and others — I've tried them all. Pingo is the best. If you want to skip straight to the sauce, just download Pingo already.”

Frequently asked questions

Pingo helps you improve faster because you're speaking Italian from the start. Instead of grinding through verb tables or vocabulary lists, you have real conversations — ordering espresso in Rome, asking for directions in Florence, chatting with your partner's nonna over Sunday lunch — get corrected in the moment, and come back to practice what tripped you up last time. That loop builds confidence faster because it matches how Italian actually gets used.

Yes. Tell Pingo your goals and current level, and it builds an Italian learning plan around you. You'll start with greetings, numbers, gender (il/la), and the basics of conjugation through short, interactive conversations designed to get you speaking from day one. Pingo gives instant feedback on pronunciation, gender agreement, and verb forms so you build natural Italian habits from the start.

As you progress, conversational roleplay lets you practice real back-and-forth — ordering pasta, asking for the bill, chatting at an aperitivo. Pingo adapts to your pace, so early sessions stay manageable and rewarding.

Absolutely. Advanced learners can practice fast-paced debates, professional Italian, storytelling, and regional dialects from Roma to Napoli to Milano. Pingo gives detailed feedback on register, idiom, and natural phrasing — helping you sound fluent in business meetings, family dinners, and everywhere in between.
