In development: invite-only beta

Learn Hindi.An education, not a game.

For people who want to be shown how a language works, not left to guess. The script, the sounds and the grammar, explained plainly and practiced a little at a time. No streaks, no points, no guilt.

We'll only use your email to invite you to the beta and to tell you when Eloqa launches. Privacy

A short screen recording of Eloqa's first lesson on an iPhone: the vowel pairs, each with its romanization, pronunciation and a short hint, then a listening exercise.

What's different

The best of the classroom, at your own pace.

Clear explanations and steady practice, the way a good teacher would run it, in lessons you take whenever you like. Why we teach this way

  • Eloqa lesson screen: a side view of the mouth with the tongue curled back behind the ridge, and notes on tongue, lips and airflow.

    Pronunciation

    See where your tongue goes.

    Hindi has sounds English doesn't. Every letter has audio, and diagrams show how to make each sound.

  • Eloqa verb explorer: the verb chalnaa (to walk) for "he", with every tense laid out in a grid: chaltaa hai, chal rahaa hai, chalaa and more.

    Grammar

    The rules, explained up front.

    Each unit opens with how it works, in plain English. The verb explorer shows every tense, and what changes.

  • Eloqa exercise: the prompt "She drinks tea." built from Hindi word tiles, marked correct, with a note on why the verb ends in -tee for a woman.

    Sentences

    Build sentences, don't memorize them.

    Put the Hindi together yourself, then see why it works. Get it wrong and the rule comes first, then another go.

  • Eloqa review flashcard: the first letter of the alphabet revealed with its sound, and Hard, Medium and Easy buttons.

    Flashcards

    Review just before you forget.

    Anki-style spaced repetition, built in. Every letter you learn joins your deck, and you rate how well you knew it.

  • Eloqa home screen: 27 of 52 characters mastered, 9 cards due for review, and a character mastery map.

    Mastery

    Progress means what you know.

    Letters mastered and cards due, not streaks or points.

How Eloqa compares.

Many popular apps, including Babbel, Busuu and Speak, don't teach Hindi at all. Here's how Eloqa compares with the ones that do.
