ALBAWABA - Google is developing a new language learning app to compete with the popular "Duolingo", which relies on learning by doing, according to Android Authority.
Android Authority said that Google is experimenting with features in the app that allow users to learn languages in everyday situations and create personalized lessons tailored to their needs.
Despite that the American company didn't announce about the app or didn't clarify when it will be launched, sources claimed that the app is about to be released; however, it won't be free. It's unclear whether this will be a standalone application or integrated with its AI subscriptions.

The app allows users to choose from a variety of training scenarios, such as ordering food and drinks, greeting and introducing themselves and others, and asking for directions. These scenarios are divided into subtopics, such as "asking for directions," which includes situations like getting lost near a hotel, finding a specific restaurant, or locating a train station.
Users have greater freedom, as they can create their own training scenario by writing a text description of the scenario, and the service, in turn, suggests additional options such as "ordering a vegetarian meal" or "passing immigration procedures." They can also specify whether the scenario will be based on a listening session or a live conversation.
