New daily listening drills for CIPLE A2 (European Portuguese) and DELE A2 (Castilian Spanish), on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and the site. Each six-minute episode gives you three exam-style questions first, plays the scene twice like the real exam, then explains the answers and the trap that catches most candidates.
Every drill has its own page under Podcast in your exam section: a player with clickable chapters, the three questions as a quiz in Portuguese or Spanish that shows the exact words you heard after each answer, three key phrases, the exam tip and the full transcript.
New drills appear on the site a day before Spotify and Apple Podcasts, marked Early access, so you can practise tomorrow's episode today.
DELE A2 live speaking exam: María, a real-time AI examiner, runs a three-part oral in Spanish (questions about you, a picture with a role-play from the same scene, then a short conversation) and answers what you actually say. Any Spanish accent is fine. About 10 minutes, then a speaking report against the DELE A2 criteria with corrections for each part. The mock pack includes 3 live exams and Pro includes 1; the live exams from one purchase are for one exam, CIPLE or DELE. Watch a real run on the DELE A2 mock test page or the DELE speaking practice page, where you can also start your live exam.
The CIPLE A2 mock test preview now includes the live oral with Ana and a real oral report, so you can see the whole exam before you buy.
The DELE A2 mock test preview now shows the live oral with María, part by part, and a real oral report, so you can see the whole exam before you buy.

All exam pages are back on www.prep2go.study: CIPLE, DELE, DELF, CELI, DTZ, Inburgering, Ellinomatheia and CCE hubs, guides, mock tests and articles. Old ciple., dele. and other exam addresses open the same page on www automatically, and your account and purchases work as before.
Old shop links such as shop.prep2go.study/celi-a2-anki-deck now open the right deck page on www.prep2go.study/shop in a single step, instead of a “page not found” error.
The menu, exam picker and homepage now focus on the citizenship and residency exams: CIPLE A2, DELE A2, Inburgering A2, DTZ B1 and CELI 2. DELF guides, mock test and French decks are still available from their usual links.
CIPLE A2 and DELE A2 pages now show where you are in the exam calendar: while registration is open you see the deadline and days left; after it closes you see how long you have until the exam and what to do if you missed it. The text updates by date on its own, so it never shows a deadline that has already passed.
After you buy the mock pack, the checkout and the thank-you page now spell out the next steps: your license key comes by email, you paste it under “Already bought? Redeem code” on your exam’s mock page, and you can start right away without an account. The button takes you straight to the code field for the exam you came from.
If you are signed in, checkout now fills in your email and name for you.
Buy buttons for mock packs, Anki decks and Pro now say up front that it is a one-time payment with no subscription and instant access, and show the payment options you can use: Visa, Mastercard, Apple Pay and Google Pay.
When you create an account from a shop, mock test or pricing page, you now land back on that page instead of a generic plans page, so you can carry on where you were.
Every Anki deck and every Gaivota em Portugal comic episode now checks out on the same Prep2Go checkout as mock packs and Pro. The download link arrives in your receipt email, and signed-in buyers get their email filled in.

2026-10-12

CIPLE A2 mock test page now answers the main questions at the top: what you get, what it costs, the real CAPLE timing, and how the live AI oral works, with the oral video one tap away and a short FAQ.
New page comparing CIPLE A2 mock tests: the free CAPLE sample, PortugalTest, CIPLE Ready, CipleOnline, OpenExamPrep and Prep2Go side by side — price, how many full exams, what is free, and how speaking is practised — so you can pick the one that fits.
New Portuguese-language page for the CIPLE A2 simulado, for readers who prefer to read in Portuguese, with prices in USD and approximate euros.
CIPLE A2 mock reports no longer call 25% a “minimum”. A section under 25% is now labelled “Weak section (below 25% — Prep2Go internal flag, not a CAPLE rule)”, because CAPLE sets no per-section minimum: only the weighted 55% total decides a pass.
The readiness check page now opens with a direct link to the CIPLE A2 mock test, and every exam card has an “exam preview” button that says exactly what is free: every screen and a sample report (plus the oral video for CIPLE). Timed, scored mocks come with the mock pack.
The CIPLE A2 mock comparison now notes where a provider states rules that differ from CAPLE’s (for example a 25% per-section minimum or an older fee), with links to both sources so you can check.

2026-10-11

CIPLE A2 live speaking exam: Ana, a real-time AI examiner, runs all three oral parts in European Portuguese (about you, the picture and a role-play, then a short discussion) and answers what you actually say instead of playing recorded prompts. About 10 minutes, then a scored report with per-criterion marks and corrections for each part. The CIPLE mock pack includes 3 live exams and Pro includes 1. Watch a real run on the CIPLE A2 mock test page or the CIPLE speaking practice page, where you can also start your live exam.
While your live exam is being scored, the page shows a progress animation with the usual wait (1–2 minutes) and updates by itself when the report is ready.
The CIPLE A2 mock test preview now shows the live oral as it really runs: Ana in all three parts, the picture board and a real oral report, instead of the old record-button screens.

2026-10-05

DELE A2 retake guide: a pass is 30/50 in each Grupo, not a 30% score on one section. Unsourced “12% fail speaking / 15% fail reading” lines are gone.

2026-10-01

New iPhone app pages, one per exam (CIPLE, DELE, Inburgering, DTZ, DELF, CELI, Ellinomatheia, CCE): flip real cards from that deck right on the page, with the picture, the example sentence and its audio. Tell it how many weeks you have until the exam and it shows how many new words a day that takes. On a computer, scan the QR code or email yourself the link; on Android you are pointed to the Anki deck instead. A side-by-side comparison explains when to choose the app, the Anki deck or Pro, and which citizenship and daily-life decks for your country come with All Access.
New in the shop: Inburgering A2 printable Dutch flashcards. 1,000 of the most frequent Dutch words in one PDF (167 A4 pages, 6 cards per page), each card with a picture, a Dutch example sentence with its English meaning, and a QR code that plays the Dutch audio. The product page shows a real printed page so you can see exactly what you get.
DELF A2 printable French flashcards grew from 360 to 1,000 cards, now in one PDF (167 A4 pages).

Long words no longer get cut off on the card.

PLA companion Block 6 (Communication & life in society) is live: 15 ready PT-PT lessons for the news, voicemails and invitations, formal emails and complaints, notices and ads, rights and duties, asking about a nationality request, and living with neighbours — with vocab pictures, dialogue audio, and checks. All six life blocks are now ready.
PLA companion is now a complete 93-lesson course: Block 1 (18 lessons) stays free for everyone with no account, and Blocks 2–6 (75 lessons) are included with Prep2Go Pro. Block pages show every lesson before you unlock, and the last lesson of each block takes you straight into the next block.
PLA companion Blocks 1–3 now match the newest blocks: every word plays a PT-PT recording of the exact example sentence on the card, and every lesson ends with a picture check. Blocks 4–6 also get “Practice this block” links to the matching drills (verbs, schedules, admin words, polite talk and more).
DELE A2 Spanish citizenship guide: the 2026 calendar now matches Instituto Cervantes — 13 February, 17 April (Spain only), 23 May, 17 October and 13 November, each with its real registration deadline — plus the published 2027 A2 dates.

DELE A2 course and vocabulary-app comparisons no longer rank products or quote unverified prices, and say clearly which product is ours.
Portuguese citizenship guides now describe the Nationality Law in force since 19 May 2026: a culture, history and civic knowledge requirement on top of A2 Portuguese, with the test format still to be set by regulation. CIPLE A2 still proves the language part.
CIPLE and DELE date guides list only the sessions still ahead instead of past “next session” dates.

2026-09-28

English deck for Brazilian Portuguese speakers: redesigned page for IELTS learners — what is on every card, how the 2,482 words are ordered by frequency, a four-step study routine, and answers on Anki, Brazilian vs European Portuguese, and reverse cards. New sample cards (achieve, requirement, evidence) with pictures and English audio.
Norwegian, Danish, Swedish, Czech, Polish (English and Ukrainian), and English-for-Ukrainian deck pages show new sample cards with exam-life words (interview, official, test, insurance, hospital, contract), matching pictures, and audio that reads the example sentence.
CIPLE A2 deck page now explains that checkout and the .apkg download run through Gumroad.
CIPLE A2 deck landing: exam-focused copy (no official-word claims), clear PT-PT audio wording, mock → deck → retest flow, deck vs Pro path, and sample cards cartão de cidadão → fila → trabalhar.
Inburgering A2 deck landing: Inburgering-first positioning, clear nl-NL audio, mock-led vocabulary repair, What-you-get tiles, and samples ambtenaar → werken → ziekenhuis with link to the Guided Companion.
Shop grid and DELF/CELI deck pages: replaced “native audio” phrasing with clear-audio wording where it appeared in sell copy.
Deck pages now show the exact number of cards in each deck (aligned with the delivered .apkg).
Arabic→English, Greek Ellinomatheia A2, Polish Certyfikat A2, and Polish-for-Ukrainian deck pages now use the same conversion layout as our best shop landings — hero with live card count, sample cards, vocabulary bands, who it’s for / don’t buy if, FAQ, and one-time checkout.
CIPLE A2 guides and FAQ: pass rule is 55% weighted overall (45/30/25) with no separate per-component floor, and Portuguese nationality-law timelines now show their effective date — kept separate from AIMA processing delays.
DELE A2 guides and comparisons: you need 30 of 50 points in each group, and section times match Instituto Cervantes (about 2 h 40 min of testing plus 12 minutes of speaking preparation).
DELF B2 guides and sample report: speaking is 20 minutes with 30 minutes of preparation, and the 5/25 per-skill minimum is shown correctly.
CELI 2 guides, hub, and mock page: the pass rule is now CVCL’s — 72/120 on the written part plus 22/40 on the oral — with one-year carry-over of a passed part and the real timings (2-hour booklet, 20-minute listening, about 10–12 minutes of speaking).
DTZ B1 guides, hub, and mock page: scoring now follows the official g.a.s.t./BAMF bands (Hören + Lesen out of 45, Schreiben out of 20, Sprechen out of 100; B1 needs Sprechen at B1). The oral is about 16 minutes, and Germany’s 3-year naturalisation fast track is marked as abolished since October 2025.
CIPLE A2 guides: Reading and Writing is one 75-minute block, speaking is about 15 minutes per pair, and the exam is explained as four assessed components in three sittings.
Citizenship guides for Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Germany and Sweden now treat the language certificate as one requirement of the nationality procedure, with each law’s effective date and transitional rules.
French naturalisation guides: marriage declarations need B2 French but no civic exam; the civic exam has 40 questions and you need 32 to pass.
Comparison guides renamed to “EU Citizenship Residence Timelines 2026” and “How CIPLE, DELE, DELF B2 and CELI 2 Differ” — they compare rules side by side instead of ranking exams by unsourced pass rates.
Mock results and sample reports now say clearly that the score is a Prep2Go readiness estimate, not an official exam result.

2026-09-24

DELE, CIPLE, and Inburgering hubs, mock landings, and guides now share one exam-facts source so clocks and pass rules stay aligned with Cervantes, CAPLE, and DUO.
CIPLE A2 hub and results guide: Reading & Writing is 1h 15m, Suficiente from 55% overall (weights 45/30/25). CAPLE does not publish a separate 25% fail floor per component.
Inburgering pages keep DUO’s four language clocks and label 60% as a Prep2Go practice line, not an official combined score.
CIPLE and Inburgering blogs no longer end with “Preparing for a Different Exam?”; hubs drop the second mock CTA under Check readiness.

New neutral homepage hero — study scene without Portugal-only tram and Portuguese wording.
English for Russian speakers and English for Turkish speakers landings now match the real decks: Russian leads with 2,500+ cards and a Russian gloss; Turkish says 1,000 cards (not 2,500+). Both still preview interview, university, and meeting.

2026-09-21
