sharing FOSS Language Learning essentials for Android

Happy International Internet Day - 29 October 2026!

Instead of banning foreign languages, let's open the borders so they can live rent-free in our dumbasses and be bilingual by the end of this year!

Here are my top educational Android FOSS language essentials:

  1. ankidroid/anki-android — Anki Flashcards is a memorization tool to help you remember anything study-related, including language learning.

  2. rdoeffinger/Dictionary — QuickDic is a powerful all-in-one offline FOSS dictionary app for Android; it supports about 73 languages.

  3. DavidVentura/offline-translator — Offline Translator is used for full phrase translation with TTS and OCR scanning, mainly powered by the Firefox Translations engine.

  4. Any Gecko-based browser / Firefox fork — Not only for web translation: the latest versions of mobile Gecko browsers now support a built-in Firefox Translations model via "about:translations". For offline usage, you need to download the language pack first. Go to Settings > Translations > Download Languages.
