【推荐1】Some people learn a foreign language because they want to communicate with the local people. Some other people are just curious about foreign cultures. Whatever your reason may be, the best foreign language software will certainly help you pick up the language in a few weeks. You will be able to speak fluently and understand the language clearly as well.
Tell Me More
This app is used in U. S. schools, and it is believed to be the best foreign language learning app all over the world. It offers instructions for learning Arabic, Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish. However, the app does not come cheap as it costs around $250.
Now Talk
If you are looking for a cheaper language learning app, then this is just the suitable choice for you. This app will cost you about $40, and even though it is not as useful as Tell Me More, it is still a very good app for the purpose. The disadvantages are that there is very little focus on grammar and there is a clear lack of interactive(互动性的)activities for users so it does not result in fluency.
Instant Immersion
This app provides learning materials for up to 33 different languages, and it is considered as the best app for learning Spanish as well. It will cost you about $30, and this is a very reasonable price for such a highly recommended language learning app. The learning courses are highly interactive, and the ever-present speech recognition feature ensures that you are getting the pronunciation right while speaking.
Kids Talk
This is a foreign language translation app that you can make use of, and it will cost you about $30. So, it is said that the level of performance will be similar to that of Now Talk. This app is designed more for the use of children for its interesting videos.
