Endless Spanish

Um 😐 what I have is the best

I like the app

when i got all the words months ago, it started to reset and now i only have 6 words and i couldn't buy packs again

The animation is the best thing it has. They put effort in making the app addictive for kids. However, the methodology is poor for an effective learning experience. Good to kill time, not good if you need your kid to learn to read or speak Spanish. In the demo, they show a few short words, which were intentionally good examples of how a kid could learn to read Spanish. This got my attention for me to pay. Early after paying, I noticed that a lot of long words are introduced. And the game is only about dragging letters and words to put them on top of the existing pattern. It’s essentially a matching game. So, the child doesn’t learn to read, but only to recognize isolated letters with a funny sound. This can make the false impression that the kid is learning to read, but instead the kid would imitate the funny sounds one at a time, and not try to pronounce complete syllables. In Spanish, it is very important to split the word into syllables, and don’t just go one letter at a time. I am talking from the point of view of the native Spanish speaker I am. Another issue I found was the wrong pronunciation of letter sounds, both isolated and when forming words. They made the ‘u’ sound like an ‘o’, and the ‘o’ makes an ‘u’ sound. Just give it a try, tap on the ‘u’ and ask a Spanish native what vowel they hear, without letting them watch the screen. Similarly with some consonants. Tap on the word ‘todos’ when it shows up, and ask a native Spanish speaker to guess what word it is by only listening to the sound the app makes. The chances that they will guess ‘toros’ is very high, in my own experience. And of course, those two have completely unrelated meanings. I don’t know what Spanish accent is that, but it sounds more like a English native speaker trying to read a Spanish word. And some sentences have a structure that sounds unnatural to a native speaker. One example I remember said ‘[alguien] dijo a [alguien] …’, when a native speaker would say instead: ‘[alguien] le dijo a [alguien] …’ The missing ‘le’ is a subtle difference that most non-native speakers won’t spot. So, very likely whoever wrote that sentence was not a native Spanish speaker. Finally, all the lessons are exactly the same, it doesn’t introduce different activities for the kid to learn. The kid can easily memorize the pattern and complete all the lessons without really learning to read. You could even mute your device, and still the kid can complete all the lessons without hearing the

Ok, so more activities, and yeah. I don’t really like it that much but maybe the app Duolingo is better…🤷🏽‍♀️

To you

I love this app for my kids. Please consider making more content/words. As others mentioned, I am really looking for more content or apps in Spanish from this creator.

Почему это приложение не работает более чем на 2 языках? Мой сын говорит только по-русски, и теперь ему нужно выучить английский, чтобы использовать это приложение🤦‍♀️.

Someone already made a concept for a Russian and Greek could you probably do another language like Korean, Italian, Polish, German, Arabian, and more

I think this app is really good for learning Spanish .like I don’t know a lot of Spanish and this app taught me casa☺️😊
