Spanish from Spain
Find your kind of Spanish.
A scene that makes you laugh. A voice that draws you in. Start with something you enjoy.
Enjoy the scene. Take the Spanish with you.
Each lesson has three steps: Watch, Understand, Your turn. First rebuild a useful phrase from memory with word tiles; then choose the best response for a different everyday situation and see why it fits.

Enjoy a short scene and follow what is happening.
Understand
Tap words and replay the key line until it makes sense.
Your turn
Rebuild the phrase from word tiles, then choose how to use it in a new situation.
A little today. More to take into tomorrow.
Review brings phrases back when they are due, and your daily reminder, if on, tells you when. Recall each phrase before replaying the scene; hints, reveal and retries cost no hearts.
- Find your next lesson
- Recall before replay
- Return to what you’ve learned
The scenes teach. The game keeps you coming back.
Every lesson, quiz and review earns XP. Module quizzes are quick word games: build the phrase, match the pairs, fill the gap. Your XP counts in a weekly league, and in weekly duels the friends in your league are your team.
- Climb a weekly league
- Team up with friends in duels
- Keep a streak and a daily goal
The Spanish you’ll hear in Spain.
A flat is a piso. Friends say vosotros. Lince focuses on Castellano as it is spoken in Spain, with short scenes that put everyday expressions in context.

Spanish from Spain is the main course, from A1 to B1. Now you can also start Catalan or Basque with an A1 starter course: short lessons mapped to official curricula, with the same word help, quizzes and review.
The starter courses practise selected A1 objectives. They are not complete A1 courses and are not certified by Instituto Cervantes, CPNL or HABE.

Questions
What is Lince?
Lince (listed on Google Play as “Lince Spanish, Catalan, Basque”) is a Spanish-learning app for iOS and Android. Short scenes lead through Watch, Understand and Your turn: word help and replay, rebuilding the phrase from memory with word tiles, then a three-response choice in a new situation with feedback. Review brings the phrase back before replay; completing a lesson is distinct from mastering it. On top of the lessons, XP, weekly leagues and duels with friends keep you practising.
Which Spanish levels does it cover?
New to Spanish? When you start, you pick your level, and a total beginner starts at A1. Lince’s video material is labelled A1, A2 and B1, from beginner to intermediate. Level labels help you choose material; they are not a language certificate. Real dialogue can still be fast, so translations and replay are part of each lesson.
Is Lince available on iPhone?
Yes. Lince is available on the App Store for iPhone and on Google Play for Android. On Android, you can start learning without an account and save your progress later. This website introduces the app and provides learning guides; lessons take place in the app.
Does Lince teach other languages?
Spanish from Spain is Lince’s main course, from A1 to B1. Lince now also offers A1 starter courses in Catalan (català) and Basque (euskara), mapped to official curricula (CPNL for Catalan, HABE for Basque); choose one during onboarding or under Settings → Learning → Language. They are starter sets, not complete A1 courses. The interface supports English, Russian, French, German, Brazilian Portuguese, Italian and Simplified Chinese, plus Spanish for the Catalan and Basque courses.
Is Lince free? Do I need a card?
Yes. The free plan is not a trial: it does not expire and needs no card. It includes every lesson and clip from A1 to B1, with 5 hearts that refill over time. Lince Plus is optional, and Google Play or the App Store shows its price before you pay.
How do I cancel Lince Plus?
Lince Plus is billed by Google Play or the App Store, so you cancel it in that store, not in the Lince app. On Android: Google Play › Payments & subscriptions › Subscriptions. On iPhone: Settings › your name › Subscriptions. Cancelling stops the next renewal. Step-by-step help on the Support page
