Software Programs for Learning French

Learn French on your computer. If you aren't in France, and you don't have a good French teacher, try using your computer! The better programs (and more expensive ones) have enough flexibility and feedback to (almost) make up for not being in France and not having a good teacher.

It's very convenient to be able to boot up your computer any time and practice your French, drill in vocabulary, take quizzes in grammar and hear your (improving) pronunciation.

And the computer won't raise its eyebrows when you murder the French "u" sound, as in "tu". The better programs let you record your voice so you can compare it to a genuine French voice.

There is a wide range of customer satisfaction with language learning software. The inexpensive courses are generally good for reviewing and drilling the language, while the more expensive ones from Rosetta Stone and Fluenz get good reviews.

Franklin 5 Language European Translator (paid link)

By Franklin Electronics

For about $20 you get a handy dictionary for French and other languages. The word "translator" is advertiser hype. There is no way that a pocket device can translate. Humans can translate. Machines can look up words and phrases.
Your web editor does not recommend carrying one of these around while traveling and using it to communicate with people. Doing that will do nothing to convince people that Americans are not gadget-crazy, and ignorant of foreign languages. Use it as a dictionary and as an aid for understanding the target language.
