HelloTalk
A must-have when it comes to language learning is the utilization of cutting-edge technology and resources. The fact is that learning a foreign language has always been a component of our New Year’s resolutions, whether it is for personal reasons or for professional reasons. On top of being able to improve how our brain functions through language learning, we have always seen mastery of a language as an important tool for engaging with a community that is different from the one we are accustomed to. It simply assists us in truly expressing ourselves, asking questions, bridging gaps, breaking down barriers, and fostering the development of enduring friendships.
This software allows you to practice the languages you are learning and improve your skills. It brings together those who speak a foreign language fluently with those who are seeking to acquire the same language, and (ideally) vice versa, to foster communication. Consider the following example: If you are a native English speaker studying Italian, you can find Italian persons who are also studying English. Despite the fact that the app is successful in connecting individuals, it does not include lessons, exercises, quizzes, or any other learning aids.
If you don’t mind being in a free-wheeling setting, this is a fun app to try out. Editors’ Choices Duolingo and Memrise, on the other hand, are more structured free (or freemium, as I’ll explain) language learning programs.
Description
HelloTalk is an app that allows you to learn a language. By immediately conversing with a native speaker. Unlike Duolingo or Quizlet, this one uses a premium set of tools. To let you speak, read, and write without embarrassment. It is dubbed the “world’s largest language exchange app”. And is available for download in over 180 countries.
It allows you to send short voice messages/audio files, chat with strangers. And even phone other people without installing any additional software. This is a terrific way to study if you are on the road and want a personal touch. Because there is no set lesson plan. You can talk about whatever you like.
If you can’t translate a word, you can utilize the app’s built-in translation feature. There’s also a doodle board where you can draw what you’re trying to translate. Assume you don’t desire a partner. Simply submit your query or comment to the newsfeed. (or Moments in the app) and millions of native speakers will aid you. With translation, pronunciation, and grammar corrections.
We think Hello Talk is a fantastic software suitable for all ages. It fosters natural language acquisition and helps millions of speakers comprehend their native. And target languages better. However, just as with social media, there may be some creeps out there. So don’t post/share any personal information with your online partners.
Pricing of HelloTalk
The Hello Talk app comes in two flavors: freemium and premium. Freemium users can download and use the software for free. But there are some limitations and plenty of advertising. The free edition also allows you to start new talks with 10 new people per day. So you can only teach and study one language per 48 hours.
The paid version is $6.99/month. The VIP removes all ads. And promotes your profile to individuals looking for language partners. But you can change your mind about what you wish to learn and teach.
For example, let’s say you wish to unlock more audio courses in languages like English and Japanese. If so, their Hello Talk audio content ranges from $99 to $119/year depending on the language. We tried the audio course. However researchers strongly advise you to avoid it due to its high cost and lack of value.
Target Language Selection
Hello Talk is currently available in more than 150 languages. Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, French, Korean, and Thai are among the languages spoken. To make use of it, all you have to do is register and select your preferred language(s). In which you are also comfortable speaking and teaching. And in which you can build a profile of yourself. Simply selecting the Search tab is all that is required once you have logged in. But then look for the language that you want to learn.
It is possible to look through the profiles of each potential language partner from that point on. And you may send them a direct message. Which will allow you to begin learning right away. Please remember that it is not your job to respond to any messages. If someone reaches you by email and you do not feel comfortable responding, do not do so.
