I don't know any other languages besides English. It's slightly embarrassing really. While I used to know some German, it all left my head somewhere over the years and now I'm stuck with just the one language. I'd love to learn another language but it's finding the time and a form of studying that works for me. Spanish Touch Trainer helps hugely with this and it teaches you the correct manner of forming sentences.

It's an app that, most of all, teaches you verb conjugation. Anyone who's tried learning a language will know that verb conjugation is a huge problem when you're just starting out. Spanish Touch Trainer teaches you how to figure this out via the context of real sentences. There's no sign of silly phrases like 'my monkey has a hat' which you'll never actually use. Instead there are useful phrases like 'my name is...' and 'where do you live?' The advanced side of the app offers more complex sentences such as 'although they were very excited, they did not know how to get there,' which can then be used to formulate your own complex sentences.

Once you've completed figuring out what Spanish word matches which English word, you can then listen to a recording of the sentence from a Spanish speaker. This is then handy for you to learn how to say things correctly. Besides the 'game' part of the app, there's also a conjugation section which acts as a very handy reference tool while you're learning.

Spanish Touch Trainer is a handy learning tool indeed. While it won't teach you everything you need to know, it helps you out hugely with those pesky verb conjugations and even better, you can do it anywhere you like thanks to the portable nature of the iOS devices. Much more fun than being stuck slaving in front of textbooks.
