General Disclaimer
The information provided by Simplang (“https://www.simplang.com”) is for general informational and educational purposes only. All information on the site is provided in good faith; however, we make no representation or warranty of any kind, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, adequacy, validity, reliability, availability, or completeness of any information on the site.
The use of any information or tools from this website is entirely at your own risk, for which we shall not be liable. It shall be your responsibility to ensure that any information or tools available through this website meet your specific requirements and circumstances.
Estimates, Not Placement or Exam Results
The figures our calculators produce — an hours-to-fluency estimate, a review schedule, a words-per-day target, a self-assessed CEFR level, an immersion total, or a study streak — are general estimates based on the numbers you enter and on widely used frameworks and study methods. They are not a placement test, an official CEFR level, or an exam score. Individual progress varies enormously with your method, exposure, motivation, and the languages you already speak. For an official level, sit a recognised examination such as those offered by Cambridge, the Goethe-Institut, the Instituto Cervantes, or comparable bodies.
Not Professional Advice
Content and tools on Simplang, including the Hours-to-Fluency Estimator, Spaced-Repetition Review Scheduler, Vocabulary Goal Calculator, CEFR Self-Assessment Scorer, Immersion Hours Tracker, and Study-Streak Consistency Calculator, are for educational and informational purposes only. They are not a substitute for a qualified language teacher, an accredited course, or an official examination, and they do not constitute professional educational, career, or immigration advice of any kind. Where a real decision depends on a certified language level — a university application, a visa, or a job requirement — confirm the requirement with the relevant institution and obtain a recognised certificate.
Tool Accuracy and Limitations
Calculation Accuracy
Our calculators provide estimates based on standard frameworks (such as the CEFR and the SM-2 spaced-repetition algorithm), the figures you enter, and commonly cited guidelines. Results should be used as starting points and planning aids, not absolute values or guaranteed outcomes.
Factors Affecting Accuracy
Actual results may vary significantly due to:
- Method & Exposure: The quality of your study, how much you use the language, and the balance of listening, reading, speaking, and writing.
- The Language Itself: How distant your target language is from ones you already know, its script, sounds, and grammar.
- Personal Factors: Motivation, consistency, prior languages, memory, and the time you can realistically commit.
- Measurement Factors: Self-reported levels and counts, rounding, and differences between estimated and actual figures.
Our Recommendations
For the best results in your studies:
- Use tool results as starting points and planning aids, not absolute values.
- Always consider your own level, goals, and circumstances.
- Verify any required language level with the institution that asks for it.
- Pair the tools with real practice — reading, listening, speaking, and review.
- Sit a recognised exam when you need a certified level.
