Mandarin learning (Learn)
The learning language is Mandarin. Characters, pinyin, the four skills and culture live in the dedicated Learn app.
Learning-language baseline
In developmentTeaching glyphs are Simplified and pinyin is the main phonetic system. Traditional script may appear in the interface or annotations, not as the main teaching path.
Characters and stroke order
In developmentCommon characters are learned with radicals, stroke counts and stroke order, linked to meaning and use.
Pinyin and tones
In developmentSyllables and tones are practised separately and linked to listening and pronunciation.
Four skills and culture
In developmentListening, speaking, reading and writing progress in stages, with stories, culture and games reinforcing vocabulary.
Personalisation concept
In developmentWe are designing review intervals and content that adapt to mastery. This is currently at the design stage, not a live learning engine.
AI study companion (scoped)
In developmentSupport is scoped to learning: pronunciation feedback and corrections. Open-ended chat and medical or legal advice are out of scope. A guardian can review interactions. A full tutor is not yet available.
Guardian progress view
In developmentGuardians will see summaries of mastery, streaks and study time—not raw conversations or a child's work.
