Kahoot! adds Dutch, Turkish, Polish and Japanese language support to its mobile
app, now supporting eleven global languages, making it easier than ever for
users to enjoy the Kahoot! learning platform in their native language.
Oslo, Norway (June 15, 2021) - Kahoot!, the global learning platform company,
today announced that the Kahoot! mobile app is now available in eleven
languages. The app now supports English, Spanish, French, Brazilian Portuguese,
Norwegian, German, Italian, and today adds Dutch, Turkish, Polish and Japanese,
making Kahoot! more accessible for its global user community.
"At Kahoot!, we are passionate about empowering learners of all ages to unleash
their potential, no matter where they're learning or what language they're
learning in," said Eilert Hanoa, CEO, Kahoot!. "Today, we are taking the next
step in our mission to make learning awesome for our users around the world. We
are excited to be launching support for Dutch, Turkish, Polish and Japanese to
make the Kahoot! experience more relevant and intuitive for learners globally."
Engaging learners worldwide with Kahoot!
Kahoot! makes it easy for educators to add engagement and fun to any lesson,
review or assessment, whether in a physical classroom or virtually. Students and
learners of all ages can also complete games at their own pace with Kahoot!
challenges, stay motivated with their peers in study leagues, and use flashcards
and study modes to boost their learning at home. Friends and families can
connect from anywhere by discovering, creating and playing Kahoot! games on any
topic and for any age. In organizations, work teams can use Kahoot! to engage
employees in learning, create interactive presentations, power collaboration
with the brainstorm feature and more.
Since launching in 2013, Kahoot! has grown from a classroom quiz tool to a
global learning platform that connects and empowers learners of all ages-in the
classroom, in virtual learning, at work and at home. Now, users will be able to
navigate the Kahoot! app, host live Kahoot! games, assign self-paced challenges,
share and play Kahoot! learning content in eleven languages.
Selcuk Yusuf Arslan, a computer science teacher at Ataturk Vocational and
Technical High School in Ankara, Turkey, shared his thoughts on using Kahoot! to
support learning: "Kahoot is the perfect tool to give students feedback on their
progress. Contributing to the learning processes of students, having fun with
them and sharing their excitement while doing this is really priceless. Let's
kahoot together in Turkish!"
Making learning even more awesome globally
With schools and businesses around the world preparing to reopen full-time while
socially distanced or with a hybrid model-combining in-person and virtual
experiences-digital learning platforms that connect and engage us anywhere are
more important than ever. As education, work and socializing adapts to a new
normal, Kahoot! has continued to see strong growth in usage around the world,
with more than 1.6 billion players in over 200 countries in the last 12 months.

months, including over 440,000 teachers. Dutch is the fifth most commonly used
