Create a Collection
Navigate to the Factory through the Create a word collection button in the center of each language header in the library.
Pick the tool you want to use. If you have vocabulary or any other text block, choose between the Camera or the Gallery, otherwise the Keyboard. Alternatively, use our bot together with the Title field as an instruction to generate an entire word collection for you!
Just frame the area of your targeted text or words and then crop.
Now you will have two parallel lists of words or phrases placed in editable text fields. Now make a spellcheck.
If all word pairs match up, save the collection.
Best Photo Practice
When taking a photo of your vocabulary, text block or objects, try to keep the camera as flat, straight and still as possible.
Also use enough light in the room!
Dashboard Walkthrough
Explore Your Play Homework hub
Glimpse the full dashboard before you dive into Chill and Play. Track active collections, jump into ongoing chats, and launch games directly from this control center. If you choose to stick to the guided learning path, then D starts as your skill level and accompanies you all the way to the top in the form of an A! But only if you want to fully master your word collection.
Chill and Play
A great exercise to start with.
Use the scroll wheel to navigate through the words. Choose the order that suits your knowledge and persona, tap play, or just tap the word in the wheel to show the word pair in the display. It's all about you deciding tempo and order.
Toggle the language bot to be active/inactive. If it's active, you will receive a sentence generated from the current word pair. If it's inactive, you will only see the word pair displayed, which maintains a better flow if you want to focus solely on the translation.
Say and Spell
When you are acquainted with your collection you may start to use the speech and spell environment.
Make your spelling or speech attempt. To make a speech attempt press and hold the microphone lightly while giving your spoken attempt.
If you do not remember the right word, you may use the
hint button. Each tap will give you progressive hints until you get the complete pronunciation.
Ready to put your spelling to the test? If you tap the lightning bolt you will enter a Test Mode:
- Get ready! A countdown begins for each word in your collection.
- Spell it right? You'll automatically move on to the next word.
- Need a pass? Use the Next button.
When you reach a score of 100% you know you're ready!
Chat and Play
Chat with a bilingual language bot in your first language and/or target language.
You have the option to initiate the chat, making the session more open and based on your own focus. You may also let the language bot initiate the dialogue, where it will center the focus around one of your words from the current word collection.
Respond in your first language, or if you feel comfortable answering in your target language, please do. Keep the dialog focused on the given situation or take it in a new direction, using your imagination.
All chat messages are playable here as well!
Edit Word Collections
If you find inaccuracies despite spellcheck when creating the collection, you have two options for editing the word pairs:
On the start page you can left slide each collection from the list, and get the option of editing the selected collection.
In 'Say and spell' and 'Chill and play' you may use the more menu
to edit the current word pair.
