Language Learning supports scheduled interactive Swedish or German practice and remembers learning-session context.
A skill gives Homie one narrow job. It can make answers better in that area, but it does not unlock the rest of the house or skip approvals.
Ask for this skill when your request clearly belongs to one of these situations.
- You want a short practice session in the language you are learning.
- You want Homie to remember mistakes, streaks, or session context.
- You want scheduled practice without mixing it into unrelated household chat.
Language Learning must be turned on for the household and can run on a schedule from the trusted home setup.
If setup is incomplete, Homie should say what is missing instead of pretending it can act.
Homie can use only the information this skill exposes and only within the permissions the household has granted.
- Learning session state
- Streaks
- Mistakes
- Configured target language
This skill does not give Homie unlimited access. It still follows the same privacy, setup, and approval rules as the rest of Homie.
- It will not assume a short utterance is the wrong language during an active learning session.
Skill information should stay with the place that owns it. Calendar events stay in calendars, recipes stay in Cookbook, messages stay in message history, and memories store only durable meaning.
If the skill touches member-specific data, Homie should know which member is asking before it uses private records.
First confirm the skill is installed, enabled, and connected. Then ask with the real object name, such as a calendar, room, recipe, playlist, inbox, or member.

If an action would reach outside the household, expect an approval card first.
Most Homie issues come from setup, identity, or approval state. Work through these checks before assuming Homie ignored the request.
- Check whether the skill tile is visible, enabled, and healthy.
- Verify account access, device pairing, and any setup fields the skill asks for.
- For scheduled skill work, check the trusted home setup before assuming Homie forgot.
Check first: Examples in this article work only when the skill exists in this home and setup is complete.
What stays private: Homie changes saved household information only from the household Mac. Background work cannot quietly edit it.
