Learn English to French

Menus at bottom don't work. When you find a phrase you want, will provide French equivalent but no provision to back out to main menu. You have to close the app and reopen. Don't waste $0.99!

Worst app I have ever purchased. Cannot even get the app to function properly. Horrible.

Tried it for the first time and froze. Doesn't translate what u want it to

Locks up from the start. You can add items to favorites but then have no way to access them - you can see the favorites tab but clicking on it does nothing.

Too basic and very limited. There are no responses in this selection. Weird phrase selection... The only nice feature is real slow talk.

I'm now in the middle of Paris and using "English to French Translation Phrases Version 1.2" on my iPhone 4 as an assistance, so this is a real life review from someone who speaks very little French: First of all, I'm giving 4 stars to this program, because it does something very special that no other language programs that I know does, which is to speak phrases slowly and clearly in 2 different speeds: Normal and Slow. Sure, "Rosetta Stone 1-5 (a $500-program)" can slow down the phrases in "Answer" window; however, it does it by a digital trick that mimics a crude old tape recorder with a variable speed button. The result is the "rubber effect" that lowers its pitch, making it like a little monster's voice. "English to French Translation Phrases" seems to have an actual separate slow motion recording for every single word and phrase by the native speaker that is clear and comprehensible to even an absolute beginner like me. In fact, I must tell you that I have finally understood how certain French words and phrases were really being pronounced for the first time by using this program. I can also tell you that I have several other French language programs on my iPhone. "French Phrase Book for iPhone ($19.99)" by LingvoSoft is one of them, and it is a similar phrase book as "English to French Translation Phrases," but its recorded voices are not as good, and there is no slow button. Its organization of the data is much better, but since the recording voices are not good and they speak too fast for me, I don't often use it. "French Travel Pro by Odyssey Translator ($4.99)" is also a similar phrase book, and its recordings are as good as that of "English to French Translation Phrases." However, this program speaks everything slowly and it lacks a normal speed button, which can become a little tiresome after a while. Further more, this program organizes everything by boxes of words and expressions that you connect them together to create your own expressions. The problem is that the program really does not connect them, instead, it reads them separately. But as we all know, pronouncing adjacent words together, following the rules, is part of the art of French language, and you cannot learn how a real French would actually speak using this program. But "English to French Translation Phrases" does have its shortcomings, which is why I cannot give 5 starts to this program: For example, there are many words and phrases that should be grouped together are not gr

this app works great for me no crashes. i like the fact that it has very clear audio and not some computer generated voice. you can play slow or in regular speed and you can save your favorites. all in all - worth it

This app is much better than nothing, but it was not what I was looking for. It is a phrasebook not a translator. So it can't do what Google Language Tools can do, translate a phrase I type in. On the plus side it provides its limited phrasebook functionality without an internet connection. I'm disappointed by the quality of the software. It crashed twice in the first 10 minutes of use.

it was great but i wish it would speak slower so that it was easier for ppl to learn to speak

Simply does what you'd expect. Had all the phrases I was looking for. Nice app.
