🌷

Become a local, faster

Recognize what's on Dutch shelves, learn what it's called, and feel at home in your new supermarket.

🧳

Tailored for expats

Built specifically for people settling in the Netherlands - not a generic list app with a dictionary bolted on.

Learn without effort

No lessons, no streaks to maintain. You pick up Dutch grocery words just by doing your shopping.

What Lingo List does

Everything below is in the app today - nothing you have to wait for.

🗣️

Two languages on every item

Each product on your list appears in Dutch and in your language (English or Brazilian Portuguese), with audio so you hear how the Dutch is actually pronounced.

👨‍👩‍👧

Share lists with anyone

Share a list through WhatsApp and shop together. Everyone adds and checks off items in real time - and each person sees the list in their own language.

🧀

Discover Dutch foods

What is hagelslag? When do you eat a bossche bol? Product descriptions explain unfamiliar Dutch foods, so you can shop curious instead of confused.

🌎

Find flavors from home

The catalog also knows the products you miss - from cassava flour to cachaça - so you can put a taste of home on your Dutch shopping list.

📅

Word of the day

One useful Dutch grocery word a day, as a friendly notification. Small drops, real progress.

Frequently asked questions

Why would I use Lingo List instead of a normal list app?

A normal list app writes down what you already know. Lingo List shows every item in Dutch next to your own language, plays the pronunciation, and explains Dutch products you don't recognize. You do the same shopping you'd do anyway - and come home a little more Dutch every week.

Which languages does it support?

The app works in English and Brazilian Portuguese, and every product is also shown in Dutch. It's made for life in the Netherlands.

Is it free?

Yes - completely free, with no ads. No paid tier, no locked features.

How does sharing a list work?

Send an invite link through WhatsApp (or any app). Whoever opens it joins your list, and changes sync for everyone instantly. Handy detail for mixed households: each person sees the list in their own language.

Is there an iPhone version?

Lingo List is on Android today. An iOS version is planned - it's the most requested thing on our list.

Does it teach real Dutch, like a course?

It's not a course and doesn't pretend to be. It teaches the practical supermarket vocabulary courses skip, with native pronunciation audio - the words you actually use every week.

Speak, shop, and settle! 🧡

Turn your weekly groceries into your easiest Dutch lesson.
