Yuji Tabata — Developer of CapySteps

I'm learning “Intro to Chinese for New Dads” with CapySteps. My wife is Taiwanese and speaks fluent Japanese, so there's no practical need. I started because I wanted to surprise her. Now my daily joy is trying to talk about our baby in Chinese and seeing if she understands.

You

Why do 妈 (mā) and 马 (mǎ) sound so different to Chinese speakers?

Capy
Capy

Great question! In Mandarin, tones aren't decoration — they change the meaning entirely. 妈 (mā, high flat tone) means 'mother,' while 马 (mǎ, dipping tone) means 'horse.' To Chinese speakers, these sound as different as 'bat' and 'bet' do to English speakers.

Suggested question

Can you give me a phrase to practice all four tones?

No pressure, pure enjoyment

Designed to leave you wanting more

Four windows per day, intentionally limited. You'll finish wanting more — and that's the point. Learning stays with you instead of being binged and forgotten.

Frequently asked questions

What subjects can I learn?

Anything you can describe — languages, programming, history, music theory, and more.

We cap lessons per time slot so you finish wanting more — learning stays with you instead of being binged and forgotten.

Does CapySteps send notifications?

You can opt in to gentle daily reminders that nudge you when it's time for your next lesson. Turn them on or off anytime in Settings.
