About Deutschly

The approach

Most free resources are either a wall of grammar reference or a game that teaches you to tap the right coloured box. Neither gets you to B2. Deutschly takes the middle path: proper explanations written the way a good teacher would say them, followed immediately by exercises that make you produce the language.

Every level ends in a mixed review you have to pass before the next one opens. That gate is deliberate — the most common reason learners stall at B1 is a shaky A2.

How the content is organised

The curriculum follows the Common European Framework, split into ten sub-levels so that progress is visible on a scale of weeks rather than years. Each level carries its own modules, lessons, grammar topics, vocabulary set and listening activities, and the lessons cross-link to the grammar and audio they depend on.

Languages

The learning content is German. The interface is available in English and Arabic, and the layout mirrors properly for right-to-left reading. Vocabulary and example sentences carry translations into both, because learners think in the language they already have.

Audio without a paywall

Listening material is spoken by your browser’s German speech engine rather than hosted as audio files. That keeps the platform free to run, works offline once a page is loaded, and lets you replay any line at any speed. Where a hosted recording is available, the platform uses that instead.

Contributing

New lessons, grammar explanations, vocabulary, listening material, translations, accessibility improvements and bug fixes are all welcome. The content lives in typed seed files, so adding a lesson means writing a data object, not touching the application code.
