(formerly named as iReadChinese)
Translate & Learn Chinese Text between 20+ languages with vocabulary & voice sentence by sentence.
Calling all Chinese learners!
The IQChinese LearnChinese app is designed to help learners of Mandarin Chinese be able to quickly and easily access vocabulary while reading long articles or texts. LearnChinese allows you to access emails, ebooks, articles, etc. from within the app. Users can then see the character, its pinyin, translation, and HSK part of speech. Users also have the ability to:
• Star vocab they don’t know and save it into their own, personal vocab list
• Have the vocab word or the entire article read out loud – great for listening practice
• Adjust how much of the page is taken up by vocab and how much is article
• Access sample texts to practice with
• Access their vocabulary list offline - speaking and translate features need internet
As well as access the settings menu to:
• Switch between Traditional and Simplified characters
• Change the number of times the speaker repeats
• Adjust what vocabulary information they see
• Change the language they translate to
• And many more customizable features!
Note:
The app will translate articles to the language of your choosing, but it uses Microsoft translate to do so. This means that the translations will not be entirely accurate (or entirely readable) and do not reflect the work of IQChinese Corp. or its affiliates.
