Learning Modalities

Six ways to learn

Hanzi Mode

See a character, type the pinyin. Builds the critical reading-to-pronunciation link that most apps skip.

Pinyin Mode

See pinyin, write a sentence using the word. Forces active recall and production, not just recognition.

Learn Mode

New vocabulary arrives with AI-generated explanations, example sentences, and context before entering your review queue.

Speaking Mode

Real-time voice conversation with an AI tutor constrained to your vocabulary — you'll never encounter a word you haven't learned.

Listening Mode

Comprehensible input sentences generated from your own deck, read aloud by a natural voice. Ear training at exactly your level.

Constructs Mode

A grammar pattern library with sentence construction exercises graded by AI. Progress is tracked per pattern, separate from vocabulary.

∞

Built on proven science

Menzi uses the SM-2 spaced repetition algorithm to schedule every card at exactly the right moment. Each response is scored 1–5 — by you for quick reviews, or by AI for written and spoken answers — so the schedule adapts to how well you actually know each word.
