About this tool →The most systematic free Marathi course, working through the tense system, cases and everyday conversation, with live sessions.

Practical Marathi for people working in Mumbai — taught through Hindi.
About this tool →Sentence sets built around real jobs, including a long series for drivers talking to passengers. Explained in Hindi. It is a reminder of who mostly learns Marathi: migrant workers in Maharashtra, not hobbyists, and the material aimed at them is the most practical there is.

About this tool →A franchise of local producers filming unscripted street interviews, each episode subtitled in the target language and English, which is the closest free thing to hearing how people genuinely speak. All YouTube episodes are free; membership adds transcripts, vocabulary lists and exercises.
