Saystone (Beta)

Learn to say it.

Saystone teaches fluency, not flashcards.

The Orton Method

Verbs first

One verb does the work of fifty nouns.

Complex first

Real grammar and real script from the start. No training wheels.

Listening leads

Hear it before you read it. Just like the first time.

A Tokyo storefront with noren curtains and bicycles

Forgot the word for banana?

Say “that yellow fruit.”

Getting your point across is fluency. It has a name — circumlocution — and we train it on purpose, from your first lesson.

Whole sentences from lesson one.

Drill the pattern. Own the grammar. Read across the table — every path is a real sentence.

わたしあなたちち
すしたまごうみ
すきですたべますみます

A Palmer-style table — the drill engine of the Orton Method.

Our promise

If you still need Saystone in two years, we’ve failed.

The goal is your independence — not your subscription.
