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.

A good way to learn words but not language
O k This is an excellant product not so much in terms of its content but in terms of the way that it makes you remember what things are called - it will not teach you to speak a language but it is very useful as an aid to learning and to supplement more involved texts -- it is fun and that will mean that you will play it for fun and we all know learning is easier when its fun

Lets talk!
This is an excellant CD Rom which I would recommend to anyone wanting to learn Thai. This is a beginners to intermediate stage CD rom. Very good quality!

a good place to start
This is a good place to start if you want to learn Thai, BUT be warned!!!! from the CD if you load it you will find you get an error message. Go to the web site and download an 18mb patch. If you have to email eurotalk forget it they have not replied to me and i have been waiting a month so far.
If i have a downside to mention about the program it is that for some of the words they speak really quick so for beginners it could do with being a bit slower in what is said
