English is spoken by around 1.5 billion speakers worldwide when combining native and second-language use. This is the reverse of every other course on Nocturnal Voice: the phrase you're learning is in English, and the translation underneath is in whatever language you already speak.
Use the "I already speak" selector above the phrase card to switch between Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, German, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, Korean, and Russian. Every phrase is spoken aloud, shown with a phonetic guide, and listed in full underneath the player — read along, listen with your eyes closed, or both.
English is written with the Latin alphabet. If it looks unfamiliar, that's normal — the phonetic guide under every phrase on this page (and in the word list below the player) exists specifically so you never have to guess.
Learners often translate idioms literally from their own language — English relies heavily on fixed expressions that don't always make logical sense piece by piece.
