Immodest pictures.

I wanted my son to learn some Hebrew but I can't show him this immodest pictures, it's a shame, Jewish people shouldn't be choosing pictures like that. Please change them. Thanks

The Hebrew word for...what?

I understand the more organic approach of learning a language by eliminating English and forcing the student to associate an image with vocabulary in the new language. However this only works if I know what I'm looking at. For instance, showing me an attractive woman jogging on the beach with her dog and giving me a word in Hebrew doesn't help me. At all. Is this new vocabulary word Hebrew for beach? Exercise? Sunset? Sports bra? I don't want to think I'm learning a word meaning "pretty girl" and actually be learning the word for "chihuahua". That could lead to some very unfortunate mishaps. Give us some English or use very clear illustrations. Also, phonetic pronunciation guides are very important because audio recordings can be very unclear, especially when you're dealing with a new language that demands new and different vocal sounds.

I don't get it...

They show you a picture and say the word in hebrew. But some of the pictures are not clear what they are. I think this would be good in the long run if you stick to it. But unfortunately I don't think it will interest as many people as is. I think u guys should at least add an introduction in English about what it does and why this approach works. Honestly, I felt unreal table and foreign with this. Try adding some English in this and people may relate and understand better.

Bad

They only show you and speak to you in hebrew so most of the time you don't know what words you are learning. Very frustrating.

So Confused.

Got this app to try to get my twin sister Hebrew, since I've spoken it since I was 16. But this app is more confusing than the language. I'm 18 years old, usually pretty good with technology, but I didnt understand this app at all.

Confusing

The word and the picture are far apart and the lessons move very quickly. You have about 10 seconds to figure out what one of the three or four things the picture could mean. I don't know if the full version is more complete. But without having prior knowledge of any Hebrew, this is very confusing.

Almost there

Great app but I don't always know what I'm saying bc the picture can be misleading. It Would be nice to have the option for English translation of the picture.

Really nice intro to hebrew

Excellent app... Really nice first exposure to Hebrew.

Awesome App!

This app is pretty much an iPod version of the method Rosetta Stone uses except this is much faster. Definitely worth getting the full version.

Awesome

A really good approach to learning how to understand a truly beautiful language!
