App Description

Newly revised based on feedback from some of our 125,000 users, this word recognition and language learning tool provides a new “touch” mode which allows new readers and language learners to simply touch pictures and words to hear native voices saying the common words in the game. In Touch Mode, users can press any word in any set, as often as they like, and hear the sounds for each word in a clear voice.

German Words 4 Beginners is a tool for beginning learners of the German language. The Wordz Lianxi practice system provides a mechanism for reviewing, learning and testing your memory of 288 basic German words. When used as part of German language education, these simple "touch to hear" and “match the words to pictures” exercises help learners to remember basic words in the German Language. The system works by having the student match English to German words and pictures, and for matching German words to English words and pictures.

The game includes 288 basic words in 16 sets, including a good mix of nouns, adjectives and verbs. All nouns are introduced with their respective definite articles – die, der and das. A good range of word groups are covered that will be useful to any beginning and elementary German language learner. See the screen shots below!
