 Absolutely a great packetAug 26, 2007
By C. C. Mantis
"Exposed"
Wow - I ordered this set primarily for the Mandarin and Thai training not knowing what I'd get. As it turns out I'm very impressed in both the quality of the training.
While there may be others offering language training, you'll be hard pressed to find such a great combo package.
What I got was a small box with the following 11 CD's
Vocabulary Builder: Mandarin Chinese
Talk Now! Mandarin Chinese
World Talk Mandarin Chinese
Talk Now! Thai
World Talk Thai
Vocabulary Builder: Japanese
Talk Now! Japanese
World Talk Japanese
Talk Now! Vietnamese
Talk Now! Tagalog (Philippines)
Talk Now! Korean
The Talk Now CD's use quizzes, games and stories designed to maximize retention.
World Talk goes to the next level offering vocabulary and grammar. Also includes an interactive quiz show where I can compete against the program or another player. Then I can use the recording feature to compare my spoken Chinese, Japanese and Thai with that of native speakers -- excellent stuff!
And of course the Vocabulary CD's combine picture association and memory activities with educational games to help me memorize keywords used in 'survival' travel mode. Also includes the recording feature to practice my vocabulary and intonation techniques for correct pronunciation.
If you want to wonder around Asia this is a great way to get started.

 instant immersionNov 12, 2010
By ksr999
i really liked the idea of all of the asian languages in this packet. and the games are very fun and helpful, and you can hear how things are "supposed" to be pronounced as well. its a great way to learn i feel.
the only negative thing i would have to say about this program, was that none of the "talk now" cds worked on my computer for some reason, all the others did though ((i have a windows vista)). and it shows how things would be "written" in that language, and in romanized form to help you to know how to pronounce it, which is really great, but i wish there was something to help you learn the alphabet/the pronunciations for one letter.
Good for the basics.Jul 18, 2011
By Robert Sanges
I used the Chinese and Korean for a couple of recent business trips. I did not work at it enough to know everything the software was teaching, but what I did lean impressed my hosts. I think that was my goal. It shows an interest in another language that helps make a good impression in a foreign land.
With a little modification to the config.txt file you can copy the disc to your hard drive and leave the CD at home.

These are my favorite languages to learn!Dec 10, 2008
By Roberta Wright
This software is so cool! I love learning these languages. Thai and Chinese are hard to learn, but I really love Korean and Japanese. This software is very good for people who are interesteed about the Asin languages, culture, or planning a trip to any of the countries in Asia.
