Get a lifetime subscription to Babbel for $199 and learn 14 languages

TL;DR: Between Aug. 24 and Sept. 18, you can get the Babbel Language Learning: Lifetime Subscription for just $199 instead of $499 — that's a 60% discount.

Speaking a second or third language may be cool, but it also could do something more for you. Beyond making it easier to find the non-touristy spots when you travel, there’s evidence to suggest another huge benefit to being multilingual: keeping your memory sharp, among other important brain functions.

The benefits don’t change the fact that learning a language as an adult can be hard. However, it might be easier with an intuitive language learning app, one that has smart voice recognition and practice sessions that could fit in the small gaps of your busy day. A lifetime subscription to the Babbel Language Learning app is on sale for $199 (Reg. $499) from Aug. 24 through Sept. 18, and this might be your last chance to get it at this price for a while.

An affordable way to learn 14 languages

Learning a new language might be hard, but it also may help keep you sharp as you get older. A 2017 study found that bilingual speakers showed slowed signs of mental decline with age. In short, learning and using a second language could keep your brain sharp for longer, and Babbel could get you started.

With 14 languages to learn, you’ve got a lot of options. Those include French, Spanish, German, Swedish, Italian, and a bunch more. How you go about learning your chosen language also has some room for flexibility. Choose from 10-15 minute reading, writing, and multiple choice activities that you could work in throughout the day, or try verbal lessons using Babbel’s advanced speech-recognition software. You could even set up personalized review sessions to help solidify what you’ve learned.

This lifetime subscription also lets you access Babbel on multiple devices, and it’s compatible with Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS.

A limited-time chance for a lifetime of language learning

Fluency isn’t achieved overnight, but with a lifetime subscription to Babbel, you could learn 14 languages at your own pace for as long as you’d like. Between Aug. 24 and Sept. 18, new customers can get a lifetime subscription to Babbel Language Learning for only $199 (Reg. $499). No coupon code needed.
