Spoken Indian languages, taught through English
Speak it. Play it. Remember it.
KrisLingo teaches you to speak an Indian language for everyday life: greetings, shopping, work, travel and real conversations with the people around you. You start talking from the first lesson, and the grammar behind what you say is taught as you go. Learn it, then play it until it sticks.
Three courses in every language. Eight languages live, two more coming soon. A Kris Konsulting offering.

Ten Indian Languages, Three Courses Each
Every language follows the same journey, so once you know how KrisLingo works, the next language comes faster. Select a language to see what's inside. Malayalam and Punjabi are coming soon, and foreign languages will follow in the coming months.
How It Works
Three Courses, One Clear Path
Start with the speech you need on day one, build real fluency step by step, and keep it fresh with a game-style practice course. Whole phrases come first; the rules follow once you're already talking.
A note on spoken language: KrisLingo teaches the language as it is spoken every day, which can differ from grammatically accurate, formal or written language.
First Conversations
- People: greetings, survival words, home, friends and the phone
- Out in the world: office, market, travel, bank and doctor
- Family, food and festivals: meals, sharing and home life
Speak Fluently
Greetings, where you are from, numbers, time, money and daily routine.
Asking for what you need, politely or firmly: places, requests and getting things done.
What happened, what you are doing now and what comes next, in ordinary speech.
Directions, describing people and places, and a capstone of real-life talk.
Play & Practice
Learn real, everyday spoken language in short games. Every word and sentence has a native voice, and you can start without reading a new script.
- Learn step by step: units that follow the lessons, each ending with a test that earns a stamp and a shareable certificate
- Practise in short rounds: match the pairs, fill the gap, build the sentence, or listen and choose; rapid fire at three speeds; chat missions where you play your part
- Remember what you learn: spaced review, Today's 10 weakest words, and a Fluency meter
- Stay motivated: stars, a daily goal with a reminder, streaks, and challenges you can send to a friend
What every course includes
Built for How the Language Is Really Used
Every Word in Four Forms
English meaning, Roman letters and Devanagari on every card, plus the language's own script where it isn't Devanagari, shown for reference and not taught. Roman letters let you start speaking on day one, Devanagari helps if you already read Hindi or Marathi, and seeing the sound in letters you know makes words easier to remember.
Natural Indian Voices
Native-sounding female and male voices. Where a language changes its words by the speaker's gender, you hear and see both forms.
Tap to Hear
Every word, phrase and dialogue line plays on tap, with English narration guiding each screen.
Real Conversations
Whole dialogues line by line, with respectful forms for elders and familiar forms for friends.
Eight Kinds of Practice
Dialogue, Fill the Gap, Listen and Choose, Match the Pairs, Translate, Quick Recall, Shadow-repeat and Smart Revision. Every module has practice sessions, so what you hear is also said, read and recalled, and Smart Revision brings back what did not stick.
Shadow-Repeat at Three Speeds
0.75x to settle the sounds, 1x for natural pace and 1.25x to stretch the ear.
Build Your Own Sentences
Pick who, what and when from drop-downs and the sentence builds itself: dozens of combinations to read, hear and say.
Progress You Can See
A Smart Revision scoreboard of what stuck and what needs another pass, with completion recorded for every module.

Questions
Good to Know
How are the courses made?
KrisLingo courses are created with AI and reviewed by native speakers of each language. Even so, AI can still make mistakes: a word, a spelling or a phrase may not sound quite right. If you spot an error, or have any feedback, please tell us at krislingo@kriskonsulting.com and we will fix it. We correct and add content from time to time, so the courses keep improving.
What is Play & Practice?
A game-style course that runs alongside the lessons. You earn stars, keep a daily streak, play rapid-fire rounds and chat missions, and review words just before you would forget them. Each unit ends with a test that earns a stamp and a shareable certificate.
Do I need to read the script?
No. Every word is shown in Roman letters with its English meaning, alongside Devanagari and the language's own script, throughout the course. The script is there to see, not to study: KrisLingo teaches you to speak and understand, not to read and write, because someone learning to speak a new language is unlikely to read and write it yet. Marathi is the exception, since it is written in Devanagari, which is shown on every card so Marathi learners can read along. At present we have no immediate plans to teach reading and writing. Roman letters and Devanagari help you learn faster: you can read the sound straight away in letters you already know, so your effort goes into listening and speaking, not into decoding a new script. Every module then has practice sessions to lock it in.
Is this the language as it is written, or as it is spoken?
As it is spoken. KrisLingo teaches the everyday spoken language, the way people really talk to each other. Spoken language can differ from grammatically accurate, formal or written language: people shorten, drop and mix things, and the spoken form can vary from region to region. We teach you to speak and understand the language around you, not to write it in textbook style.
Is it a grammar course?
Speak Fluently teaches spoken language, and it uses grammar to do it. It is not a heap of words and sentences grouped together: each module is built on one grammar topic, such as pronouns, question words, the past, present and future tenses (including the continuous forms), place words (postpositions), adjectives and joining words. We name each module by what you will do with it, for example “Say what happened”, not by the rule, so you learn the pattern by using it and never get buried in terminology. First Conversations is phrase-based, to get you through your first days.
What do I need to use it?
A phone, tablet or laptop with a browser. Turn the sound on: every word and line has audio.
Which language should I start with?
The one you want to speak, whether it is spoken where you live, where you are moving, or where your family is from. Each language follows the same path of three courses and 51 modules, so a second language is quicker once you know the system.
Is it a certification?
No. KrisLingo is for everyday conversation, not an exam. Each module records your completion so you can see your progress.
Can I learn with a native speaker, one to one?
Yes. Speak Fluently with a Native Speaker gives you a 30-minute one-to-one class for each of the 24 modules, taught by a native-language expert at a time you agree with them, 3 classes a week over 8 weeks. You have a designated faculty member for your classes (changed only in unavoidable circumstances), and if classes are delayed because of the faculty, your course is extended. It comes with a 3-month or 6-month app subscription so you can practise between classes. See the price above. For group tutoring, write to krislingo@kriskonsulting.com.
Do you support school students?
We are designing easy-to-learn language courses for school students, and we will be glad to hear what you need. Please write to krislingo@kriskonsulting.com with your specific requirement and we will let you know how and when we can help.
Will you offer foreign languages?
Yes. We will roll out foreign languages in the coming months. Write to krislingo@kriskonsulting.com to tell us which language you want and we will let you know when it opens.
Will the courses be updated?
Yes. We make corrections and add new content from time to time, based on feedback and on what learners need. If you find an error or have a suggestion, write to krislingo@kriskonsulting.com.
Can a group use it, not just one person?
Yes, and not only companies. KrisLingo can be set up for large housing societies, groups of friends and small families, as well as for companies, whose staff can learn through KrisLMS with completion tracking. Write to krislingo@kriskonsulting.com for a customised offering.
