What it does
Tell us what you speak. We'll rank 96 world languages by how easy each one will be for you to learn next — scored across lexical overlap, grammatical distance, phonological similarity, writing system, and language family, with adjustable weights. Free. No signup. No ads. The full linguistic dataset is published openly as a single JSON file. Built for polyglots, students, linguistically curious travellers, and anyone who's ever wondered "what should I learn next?".

A line connects two languages when their composite linguistic distance — combining lexicon, grammar, phonology, writing system, and genealogy — falls below…from mynextlanguage.org
