Clearer choices for adult language learners.
Plainspoken Languages is an independent content publisher focused on the practical side of learning and using a second language.
What we do
We analyze language-learning approaches, tools, and courses using factors such as features, learning method, pricing information, course structure, and other publicly available information. Our aim is to explain what a product or method appears designed to help with, so readers can decide whether it fits their own goals.
What we do not claim
We do not present a product as personally tested unless we have actually tested it. We do not invent team members, credentials, awards, expert endorsements, testimonials, or learner results. When a statement comes from a course provider, we try to make that distinction clear.
How we make money
Some pages contain affiliate links. If a reader follows one of those links and makes a purchase, we may receive a commission. That commercial relationship does not change the price paid by the reader. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details.
Our editorial standard
Useful language-learning content should distinguish between what a product says, what learning principles suggest, and what a reader should decide for themselves. We try to keep those categories separate.
