German Chunks - Learn German with ready‑to‑use chunks, not word lists

German Chunks is a small iOS app that helps you learn German through ready‑to‑use phrases (“chunks”) instead of isolated word lists. You focus on what you can actually say: natural sentences and patterns you’ll hear from native speakers, organised into short sessions you can fit into everyday life. Ideal for beginners and improvers who want to sound more natural in real conversations, not just pass a vocabulary test.

Hi Product Hunt 👋 I’m Karthik, an indie iOS dev and German learner. I built German Chunks because I was tired of learning long word lists and then freezing in real conversations. What actually helped me was collecting the real phrases people use and revisiting them until they felt natural. German Chunks is my attempt to turn that “chunks, not words” approach into a small, focused app: you learn ready‑to‑use phrases and patterns, sessions stay short enough for real life, the UI stays out of the way so you can focus on language. This is an early version and I’d love your feedback: Is the “chunks” approach useful to you? What would make this genuinely better than a classic vocab app? Which features would you want next (e.g. more levels, audio options, or tracking)? If you’re learning German or you teach it, your thoughts would mean a lot. Thanks for taking a look, and for any comments or suggestions you’re willing to share 🙏
