From “what does that mean?” to long-term memory
A dictionary that speaks learner
Search Swedish or English. Every entry shows en/ett gender, inflection forms, real example sentences, and audio pronunciation.
Build your own wordbooks
Collect words from class, the news, or the street into wordbooks — or start from curated CEFR A1–B1 and SFI lists.
Flashcards on a smart schedule
Spaced repetition brings each word back right before you'd forget it. Ten focused minutes a day keeps hundreds of words alive.
Beat the forgetting curve
Without review, most new vocabulary fades within days. Each well-timed review flattens the curve — until the word simply stays.
- ✓Every saved word gets a mastery level from 0 to 5
- ✓Intervals adapt: shaky words return sooner, solid words rest longer
- ✓Daily session sized to fit your streak, not exhaust it
One root, a whole family
Swedish is a builder's language: stå (stand) becomes förstå (understand), bestå (consist), avstånd (distance). SveLingo maps roots, prefixes, and suffixes on every entry, so each word you learn quietly teaches you five more.

What is spaced repetition?
A review schedule that resurfaces each word just before you'd forget it, with growing intervals as you master it — far more efficient than re-reading word lists.

Yes — wordbooks are aligned with CEFR levels (A1–B1) and SFI vocabulary, and the level check finds your starting point.
Does the dictionary show conjugation and word forms?
Every entry lists full inflection — plural and definite forms for nouns, conjugation for verbs — with example sentences and audio.
Is there a mobile app?
Yes — SveLingo is available on the App Store for iPhone and iPad. Your words and progress sync between web and mobile. An Android version is coming soon.
