Product Description


Product Description
Turn your Android device into a personal interpreter for up to 28 languages.

The Travel Interpreter is a talking, illustrated phrasebook that translates English words and phrases into more than two dozen languages: German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian, Polish, Czech, Slovakian, Russian, Bulgarian, Greek, Hungarian, Turkish, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hebrew, Thai, Hindi, Vietnamese, and Farsi.

The app offers the unique opportunity to communicate abroad without any special language skills, as it can simply speak the translation as required. Easily understandable illustrations make communication even easier.

You can use the Travel Interpreter to order plane tickets, book hotel rooms, take a car to be repaired, or order a meal in a restaurant without any language skills at all. More than 2,100 phrases and words are included for each language, all of which are clearly categorized according to the respective topic, such as customs, hotel, service, driving, car services, sightseeing, entertainment, eating and drinking, sports, and leisure.

The integrated search function makes it even easier to find what you need. If, for example, you want to book a single room in a hotel, simply key in "single" and the phrase "I would like to book a single room" appears on the screen.

5.0 out of 5 stars great app for kindle fire April 6, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
no internet required, covers most needed words and phrases and speaks them in a dozen languages using native speakers. The search word or phrase function is great; type in the word you are looking for and your options appear. I started learning words in no time and could put together phrases not covered

5.0 out of 5 stars Babelfish? January 26, 2012

Travel Interpreter for the Kindle fire is just what I need for an upcoming trip to Spain. Not only does it provide translations of many useful phrases for tourists but it also has the phrases recorded with proper pronunciation and accent. I no longer have to mangle it because now a tap on the screen will play the phrase.

I travel a lot and communication barrier is always a problem being a guest or tourist in a different country. This software allows me to communicate or interact without being connected to the internet

5.0 out of 5 stars great value - good basic translations - but not perfect
well worth the money but only provides basic translations - and none really specifically suited to a particular culture/ country. $10 for multi-language support it was worth it.
