How does matching work on Linga Chat?

Matched around language, not looks

Linga Chat suggests people who fit what you are learning. It looks at your native language, your target language and level, and the interests on your profile, then builds a match feed of language partners who make sense for you — including native speakers who want to learn your language in return.

How a match happens

• Browse the match feed and open profiles that look like a good fit.
• Send a like to show interest, or go straight to a message.
• Start chatting when the interest is mutual, with instant translation in 27 languages so you are never stuck for words.

Tools that help you connect

A Super Like lets someone know you are especially keen to practice with them, and it puts your profile at the top of their list. Boost and Spotlight lift your profile so more of the right partners see you. From there you can move from text to voice messages to a live audio or video room whenever you are both ready, and the discovery filters let you narrow the feed by language, level, interests and country so the matches stay relevant. Linga Chat is free to start, so you can match, chat and practice speaking without paying.
