Learn Spanish app review: perfect your Spanish language skills

Introduction

Perhaps you are planning to travel to Spain, maybe you need Spanish for business purposes, or then again maybe you are just interested in learning another language. Whichever the case may be, the Learn Spanish app can be incredibly useful. Spanish is one of the most popular languages in the entire world so learning to speak it can only help you in the long-run.

Your Guide to Spanish

Rather than spending a fortune in language classes and lessons you can download this app and get going on learning Spanish on your own time, which means it works around your schedule. The app has been designed to be simple and quick to use so you'll quickly find what it is you're looking for. You are given more than 200 of the most common phrases and words for free.

Browse through the list of translated phrases that will work in all kinds of situations. If you need a more complete app you can do so by purchasing the full version. By doing this you'll have 18 categories of phrases, which totals 800 phrases all together. The pro version of the app is available for $4.99, which is still a lot cheaper than paying for language lessons.

I like that you can listen to the translations and the audio is clear and crisp. It is spoken by a native Spanish speaker so you can also trust the pronunciation. After all, what good is learning the language if you aren't even pronouncing it right? If you get stuck on a few words just slow down the playback so you can listen to each and every sound.

 

What Can I Expect?

In the free version you are given a good selection of categories such as general conversation, greetings, numbers, transportation, directions and places, and eating out. A good idea if you plan to be using the phrases often is to mark them as favorites so you can go back to them at any time.

Another bonus is that this app doesn't need an Internet connection so no matter where you are and no matter what the situation is, you can perform a quick search of words and find what you're looking for.

The user interface features a brilliant and simple design so you can quickly find what it is you’re after. I really like how clear things are set up so that when you’re in a hurry for a translation you’ll have no problems. You can even play the translation for the person you are trying to speak with.
