How It Works

Suppose you're going shopping in Barcelona and want to be able to ask whether a merchant takes credit cards.  On the Home screen, tap the menu bar to select EngSpa (English to Spanish).  In three quick taps, you can find the right Spanish expression:

1. On the Home screen, tap the Out & About icon.

2. In the Out & About list, tap the Shopping category.

3. Scroll through the Shopping phrase list and tap "Can I pay with a credit card?"

You'll see the Spanish equivalent, "¿Puedo pagar con tarjeta de crédito?," in the gold translation window.  To hear it out loud, tap the translation window.  Then when you're ready to make a purchase, just repeat the phrase to express yourself in natural Spanish.  To reverse the process and go from Spanish to English, just select SpaEng on the Home screen menu bar.

Add-on Modules

You can enhance the content of the Phrasebook with five add-on modules that seamlessly expand the language base:

500 Nouns adds a basic vocabulary to the Phrasebook.  These nouns are the names of people, places, and things most essential to everyday conversation. When this add-on module is installed on a Pocket PC that contains the required Talking Phrasebook, 500 Nouns becomes a new subcategory under the Conversation category. This add-on includes the names for colors, family members, items of cuisine, and other basic terminology.

500 More Nouns adds a more advanced vocabulary.  When installed, 500 More Nouns becomes a new subcategory under the Conversation category. This add-on includes the names for outdoor activities, cultural pursuits, computer equipment, and other intermediate-level terms.

Requirements

MobiLearn software is designed to run on any Pocket PC 2002 or Windows Mobile 2003 device.  The MobiLearn English-Spanish Phrasebook and Add-on Modules include several hours’ worth of high-quality audio, and thus require more storage memory than the average Pocket PC program—about 15 MB for the core Phrasebook and 7-12 MB for each of the Add-ons.  For greatest efficiency and highest performance, we recommend that you install these programs on a CF or SD storage card.

To optimize your Pocket PC, we recommend that you follow the links below to install two key updates if they're not installed already:

• Before you install MobiLearn software, install the latest version of Microsoft ActiveSync (Version 3.8).

• For Windows Mobile 2003 and earlier devices: After you install MobiLearn software, install the latest Microsoft .NET CF Service Pack (SP3).
