It is at http://www.ukcs.net/learn There is also a word square/word search program I stuck up there earlier this week and announced. You have a choice of : French Spanish German Portuguese Italian The SayIt language tutor was one of the UK's most popular educational packages in 1991-92, published in 10 magazines When I worked in schools I had networked rooms and we used to keep the kids busy for hours. It has been resurrected to work on the Net. The quiz is simple. It will give you a word, you choose the correct translation. The computer will tell you if you are right or wrong. It will then repeat. It will keep it up all day long, if you wish. The original SayIt had the advantage it spoke. The technology is now available to use the files across the world, but the speech modules are locked away in a machine in England and they will be integrated into this version possibly August 2004. There are only nouns there because the lists have been machine translated. The machine translations of verbs and adjectives that were returned in German were laughable. Anyone speaking English as a second language and who has lived in the UK, North America, Australia, or New Zealand for more than 3 years who wishes to add another language, add to the current language dictionary, or correct the current version, is welcome to come forward. Any added language must use the Western alphabet; most Asian and Slavic language will have to be exempt sorry. Mike.
