More Estonian learning content than any other app β and growing every month.
A language of a highly digital EU nation β and a genuinely rewarding one to master.
Estonian is spoken by around 1.1 million people in Estonia, one of the most digital countries in the EU. If you're relocating for work, joining a startup, or building a life in Tallinn or Tartu, Estonian opens doors that English alone won't.
No grammatical gender, no articles, but 14 cases, consonant gradation, three degrees of vowel length, and the rare quotative mood for reporting hearsay. It's unlike anything in English β logical once it clicks, and we teach it step by step.
Duolingo doesn't offer an Estonian course at all, and most big apps stop at a phrasebook. EstoniaSpeak is the serious, complete way to reach real fluency β for expats, professionals, heritage learners, and language enthusiasts alike.
