You're in charge
This isn't a quiz — it's a conversation you steer. At any moment, in English or Spanish, you can:
- Ask questions — "why is it estoy and not soy?", "what does that word mean?"
- Say what you want — "I want to learn past tense", "slower please", "let's talk about food"
- Just keep talking — answering Marisol is always fine too, but you never have to only respond
Focused practice
Ask to learn something specific and Marisol may open a short focused-practice block — you'll see a banner at the top of the chat. Practice as long as it helps; the Done practicing button returns you to the conversation whenever you want. You can also say basta or stop practice. During the level check, say skip or sáltalo.
Chapters
Learning happens in chapters. When one wraps up, Marisol reviews what you did, shows you a chapter report, and opens the next one.
The panels
Progress and Forms & phrases are buttons in the header — open them, then Done or tap outside to close. Forms pops open for a few seconds when a new word-form table arrives, then closes so the chat stays clear; tap Forms again any time it is available. When Marisol shows pictures or tap-choices, tap one — a single picture puts the word in the box; two or more pictures, or a row of choices, send that answer. Tap-choices appear only when you are stuck; they leave once you reply or the next turn is open production.
Voice
Click the mic, talk, click it again — your words land in the box so you can edit them. Press Send when they look right. "Speak replies" reads Marisol aloud; the speed slider slows her down (0.8× and below uses a deliberately slow style).
Fresh starts
Finish for today (under More) grades what you just did and shows a short report — your record is saved; you can keep talking after. Start over erases everything — your learning record and the conversation — and begins again as a brand-new learner. Reloading the page keeps your conversation — refresh is never destructive.
