| Abstract: | The article focuses on Lingco, a web-based language learning platform founded in 2018 that offers adaptive and personalized vocabulary practice across 16 languages, including Arabic, Chinese, French, and American Sign Language. Lingco supports asynchronous learning with a variety of activities targeting vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, writing, speaking, listening, and reading, and features technological tools such as voice recognition, auto-grading, and integration with external resources like YouTube and Quizlet. While the platform is accessible on multiple operating systems via browsers and suitable for beginner to advanced learners, it lacks a mobile app and synchronous interaction, which may limit real-time communicative practice. Lingco’s pedagogical approach combines audiolingual method drills with communicative language teaching elements, making it suitable for instructors seeking a blend of form-focused and interactive activities, though vocabulary learning is primarily decontextualized.
