The MobiLearn Multilanguage 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 35 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 storage card.

How It Works

Suppose you’re traveling in Spain and want to learn and use some practical Spanish expressions.  On the Home screen, tap the menu bar to select EngSpa (English to Spanish).

Now let’s say you're going shopping in Barcelona and want to be able to ask whether a merchant takes credit cards.  In three quick taps, you can find the right 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 do the same in Paris, tap the Home screen menu bar to select EngFre, then repeat the steps you followed for Spanish.  You'll see the parallel French phrase, "Je peux payer par carte de crédit ?," in the gold translation window.  To hear it out loud, tap the translation window.  You can do likewise to hear and speak the equivalent German and Italian phrases.

Add-on Modules

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

Cuisine adds over 190 special culinary expressions.  When installed, Cuisine becomes a new subcategory under the Out & About category.  Note: for elementary terms related to cuisine, purchase the Nouns 301 add-on, which contains vocabulary fundamentals including 162 culinary items. The Cuisine add-on module described here extends the vocabulary with more specialized expressions.

Dating adds over 160 special social expressions and vocabulary terms.  When installed, Dating becomes a new subcategory under the Conversation category.  This module contains some essential adult language that parents may consider unsuitable for children. 

Driving adds over 190 special phrases and vocabulary terms.  When installed, Driving becomes a new subcategory under Transportation.  Note: for elementary terms related to driving, first purchase MobiLearn's Nouns 202 add-on, which contains vocabulary fundamentals. The Driving add-on module described here extends the vocabulary with more specialized terms.

The Nouns modules add a basic vocabulary to the Multilanguage Phrasebook. These nouns are the names of people, places, and things most essential to everyday conversation. When these add-on modules  are installed on a Pocket PC that contains the required Talking Phrasebook, the Nouns modules become new categories under the Conversation category.  The six Nouns add-ons are arranged roughly as they would be in a three-year sequence of academic semesters.  Altogether, these six add-ons contain over 1,000 essential vocabulary words.

Nouns 101 includes terms for family relationships, parts of the body, basic clothing, simple household items, recreational activities and weather.

Nouns 102 includes terms related to personal grooming, office activities, shopping, common animals, objects in nature, and basic colors.

Nouns 201 includes terms related to school activities, basic occupations, recreation, and simple geographical features.

Nouns 202 includes terms related to emotions, travel, and other basics of everyday life.

Nouns 301 includes basic terms related to cuisine and measures of size, weight, and distance.

Nouns 302 includes terms related to consumer electronics, computer technology, health, nations, cities, and languages.
