Learn Italian - EuroTalk

A slick app that really falls short in terms of amount of content. Even as a quick crash course, there are glaring holes in basic communication vocabulary. Very disappointing for a paid app.

I just purchased this app. I like the layout and performance but there is not much content. I expected more vocabulary and more phrases considering the price. There aren't even enough food words to order in a restaurant. The numbers only go to twenty. More content please. I feel a bit ripped off.

The fun thing about this app is that it shows you photos and you learn the words to go with the photos, bypassing your native language completely. So the words mean what they mean, rather than being a translation. This makes them stick faster. So when I look at a head, for example, I can think, "la testa" without having to think, "the word for head is..." I go from the photo to Italian, without having to go through English at all. This is much better than apps that take you through translations only. That being said, you only get a starter vocabulary here. Body parts, foods & dishes, basic phrases, numbers, colors, and a few more categories. BUT these will stick with you, making a nice framework for the vocabulary you add later. If you want to learn Italian but don't know where to start, this will put some new words solidly in your vocabulary, if you work with it. The Easy quiz and then the Easy+ quiz for each list are the parts that really made the words stick in my mind. Even if you only have a little time each day, repeating those quizzes will make the words stay familiar. You can learn this! This app is a good starring point, especially if getting started seems like the hardest part. Enjoy!

I really like this app but when I did the new 4 update this app completely disappeared from my phone, store and everywhere. It only shows that I purchased it in my account. The app does not show as previously purchased. Wasted 2 days trying to get it back but no luck. For an expensive app this should not happen.
