Memrise, the AI-powered language-learning app with over 70 million users worldwide, today announced the addition of two new languages, Greek and Indonesian, to its portfolio of 23 languages. A pioneer in the AI education space, Memrise’s addition of Greek and Indonesian solidifies its mission of leveraging emerging technologies to make language learning efficient, enjoyable and effective.
While a high volume of traffic is directed towards popular languages like English, Spanish and French, Memrise is ensuring that learners of Greek and Indonesian have access to the best possible resources for language learning. Both Greece and Indonesia have seen a recent influx of tourism, with the Bank of Greece reporting an impressive 32.7 million tourists in 2023, and the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) reporting a surge of 11.7 million tourists to Indonesia in the same year. To cater to potential travelers, the new courses will include dozens of hyper-specific, scenario-based lessons to help users feel more confident in real-world situations – like ordering in a Greek taverna or shopping for clothes at an Indonesian market.
“At Memrise, we’re dedicated to helping the world overcome challenges when it comes to language learning, and continuing to add new courses only highlights this commitment,” Memrise CEO Steve Toy said. “The addition of Indonesian and Greek in particular will help Memrise to provide access to an even wider range of languages, empowering our users to achieve their learning goals and explore new content.”
Memrise strays from the traditional textbook approach to language learning by providing an immersive experience that leverages AI technology: The app combines a chat GPT-powered “MemBot” chat tool and an extensive library of over 48,000 scenario-based lessons, including videos featuring real native speakers, to create a unique and interactive learning experience.
