# Tapas Talk

> Tapas Talk is a mobile app for learning the Spanish people actually use in bars, markets and streets, by saying it out loud and getting told what to fix. Made by Keeda Studios.

- What it is: a Spanish learning app for English speakers. Every word and phrase comes with the situation it belongs to, and you say it out loud from the first minute.
- Pronunciation scoring: tap the mic, say the word, and get a score out of 100, letter by letter, with one line on what to change. Scoring runs on a server, so it needs a network connection.
- Spain or Latin America: the learner picks Spain, or Mexico and Latin America, and every pronunciation guide, voice and score follows that choice (for example gracias is GRA-thyas in Madrid and GRA-syas in Mexico City).
- Course: 23 chapters of real situations, including Start Here, Bars & Tapas, The Market Run, Around Madrid, At the Table, The Wedding, The Cantina, Andalusia, Pharmacy & Feeling Ill and Travel Days, plus a grammar chapter, How Spanish Works.
- Practice: spaced review rounds, a Practice Lab in every chapter, a quick quiz at the end of every level, streaks and medals.
- Who it is for: English speakers who want to speak Spanish out loud in real situations (travel, eating out, daily life) rather than only read and write it.
- Platforms: iPhone and iPad (App Store) and Android phones and tablets (Google Play).
- Price model: free to download. Every chapter is open for the first seven days, with no account and no card. After that the opening chapters stay free and a one-time payment unlocks every chapter. No subscription. Pronunciation checks use credits: 100 free to start, 1,000 more with the unlock.
- Maker: Keeda Studios (https://keedastudios.com), the independent app studio of Akhil Madan. Support: support@keedastudios.com.
