Busuu is a serious app for adults who want to reach a certified level in a major language, with a study plan, grammar units and feedback from native speakers. It does not teach Somali.

Luuqad is not trying to certify anyone. It is trying to get a seven-year-old in Toronto to call her grandmother ayeeyo, count to twenty and ask for water in Somali, and to enjoy doing it. Pictures, native audio, quizzes and games do that job better than grammar tables.
