Lunedì di riposo, ginocchia sul divano. Rest day Monday, knees on the sofa.
Ieri la tua prima corsa al parco? Yesterday, your first run in the park?
Com'è andata? How did it go?
Il cliente voleva un terrazzo sul muro portante. The client wanted a terrace on a load-bearing wall.
Gliel'ho spiegato con calma. I explained it to him calmly.
Com'è andata la riunione di ieri? How did yesterday's meeting go?
Dopo la corsa di domenica mi fa male le gambe.
Ti fanno male le gambe? Ti capisco. Your legs hurt? I get it.
Dopo il lungo sul Po cammino come un pinguino. After my long run along the Po I walk like a penguin.
Per due giorni. For two days.
Settimana buona: cinque giorni. A good week: five days.
La gita in montagna, tutta al passato. The mountain trip, all in the past tense.
Prossimo allenamento: le preposizioni articolate. Next training: articulated prepositions.

An example from a week of Italian, not a real learner's week
Ho guardato la tua settimana. Quattro giorni insieme, e martedì mi hai raccontato del mercato con frasi più lunghe del solito. Le melanzane te le ricordi ancora? Le hai usate giovedì senza chiedere. Due cose su cui lavorare, poi ti lascio in pace.

The same message from Marco, written for three levels.
Domenica corro lungo il Po. Corro per due ore. Dopo mangio tanto. Tu fai sport?
On Sunday I run along the Po. I run for two hours. Afterwards I eat a lot. Do you do any sport?
Domenica ho fatto il solito lungo sul Po, ventidue chilometri sotto una pioggerellina fastidiosa. Le ginocchia si lamentano, io no. Tu fai qualche sport?
On Sunday I did my usual long run along the Po, twenty-two kilometres under an annoying drizzle. My knees complain, I don't. Do you do any sport?
Domenica il lungo sul Po è andato meglio del previsto: ventidue chilometri a un passo dignitoso, nonostante una pioggerellina che sembrava fatta apposta per scoraggiarmi. Le ginocchia hanno protestato solo nell'ultimo tratto. Tu come tieni a bada la pigrizia?
On Sunday the long run along the Po went better than expected: twenty-two kilometres at a decent pace, despite a drizzle that seemed made to discourage me. My knees only protested on the last stretch. How do you keep laziness at bay?
Parla gives you someone to practice a language with every day, so you don't forget what you've worked so hard to learn.

No. Every companion is an AI and says so in its first message. They have consistent lives, opinions and moods, and they remember what you tell them, but they are not people.
No. It adds a daily conversation beside them. Keep them.
You can already hold a simple conversation in the language, roughly A2 and up. Companions shorten their sentences to match you. Complete beginners: not yet.
Inside the conversation, the way a friend would rephrase what you said. At most two patterns a week are raised, and Sunday's letter summarises them.
Days you talked, minutes, new words, words that came back, sentence length, your level, and the two patterns to work on. One letter per language, plus a PDF.
It is already on your phone and your desktop, voice notes work well, and there is nothing new to install.
No. You choose when a companion may write, and you answer when you can. Quiet weeks are allowed.
Yes. Voice notes both ways.
Your messages build a companion's memory of you, nothing else. From one settings page you can download what your companions know, make them forget, or delete everything.
14 euro a month or 99 euro a year, VAT included, after a free week with no card. Pause for two or four weeks, or cancel, from one screen. No email, no call.
Italian, German, Spanish, English and French. Missing yours? Tell us which language you'd like to practice when you start your free week, and we write to you the day it opens.
Yes, in one language or in several. One subscription covers every companion in every language, and each companion has its own settings.
Free week. No card.
