Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
The Talk Now! Range is the world's best selling language learning CD-ROM series for beginners, used by more than eight million people to date. Talk Now! caters for all types of beginner: young learners from the age of 4, families, students and people going abroad with no knowledge of the language. It is simple to use, with no installation required - the program runs straight from the CD, and is compatible with the latest versions of Mac and Windows.
Eurotalk software is completely intuitive - the simple interface means that learning is as easy as pointing and clicking. Speech recording allows you to record your voice and compare it with native speakers. Quiz yourself with 2 levels of difficulty to test what you've learnt - earn points and monitor your progress, then take on the memory man and get the maximum possible 1800 points to receive the gold award! Learn at your computer - or alternatively, print out pages of the printable picture dictionary, or you can learn on the move using the iPod application.
Above all, EuroTalk discs are designed to be fun. Research in the early 1990s at the University of California revealed that memory is greatly improved when accompanied by fun and laughter. Our quizzes, games and stories provide this and you will be amazed how much you remember after a surprisingly short time devoted to a disc.

The CD rom worked well with VISTA, although I had to remove VLC player first.
Hearing the words really helped with getting the pronunciation correct, although there were one or two differences between the man and the woman. Not sure if it is a gender thing or not.
The facility to print out reminders was great and the interactive games to reinfoce the learning super.
A great product to start learning the language.
Given the current situation in Afghanistan and the border region of Pakistan where Pashto is spoken I do wonder when I will have the opportunity to ask "Da samader ghaarah cheri da?" (Where is the beach?)
