## What is StudyChat Chinese?

=[ FEATURES ]= 
- Learn socialising phrases, to help you meet others.
- Practice listening skills for the Asia traveller.
- Familiarise yourself with common everyday situations, so you're aware of useful phrases
- HSK 1 + HSK 2intermediate word level, for those who want more practice tools
- Your progress for each phrase is tracked in the background, so you don't repeat phrases too frequently.
- Phrases are randomised in semi-artificial conversations, so there is some "variety" to keep your mind awake.
- Focus on listening, and translation recall. The two most important skills for everyday socialising.
- Practice Chinese with anime conversations. 


=[ HOW IT WORKS ]= 
- Listen to a conversation: a list of phrases. 
- After each repeat, any phrase has been seen enough will be replaced by a new phrase to learn. 
- Best used as an intermediate practice tool.
- Combine with SCRIBE ORIGINS series to learn basic vocab and hanzi. 



StudyChat Chinese is designed for you as the intermediate-level traveller who wants to become familiar with phrases from different situations. If you already know the basics of the language and you want another tool to practice with, then this is for you. 

StudyChat Chinese has been intentionally designed as a fun supplementation to existing study methods. There are many excellent resources for learning grammar and vocabulary. But there are few tools, aside from watching TV with subtitles, that simulate conversations for practicing what you have already learnt.

StudyChat Chinese also includes a bucketload of background and character styles, to keep your mind as interested as "study" possibly can be.

### 5/5 — Excellent dialogues

*2020-10-23, version 4.1*

The most amazing part of this app is conversational language that is used in the dialogues. This app would be even better if there was an option of typing characters as in real chat.

### 3/5 — 구매내역 삭제 부탁드립니다

*2016-09-09, version 4.1*

구매내역 삭제 부탁드립니다.

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2015-12-19*

This app is pretty good. However, Chinese scribe and origins are much better.  The one issue I have with this app is that the multiple choice answers never change position. For instance, I know 我要去逛街 will always be the bottom choice so I don't even have to think about it. Some of the recordings also don't match the multiple choice options.

### 5/5 — Best Chinese learning app

*2014-10-30, version 3.5*

Best Mandarin learning app on the iPad. Funny conversations and repetition without boring you means you learn and build upon your Chinese with every scenario. After trying out the scenarios in the free version, I immediately purchased the full - perhaps I was taken by the cute anime girls. Go for it!

### 3/5 — Good but need more content

*2014-03-29, version 3.5*

This is a great app. The method used is really effective. But it would be nice to have more general conversation topics, not only chinese for your chinese boyfriend/girlfriend...

### 4/5 — 結構いいと思います

*2013-12-19, version 3.5*

悪くないです。

### 2/5 — Data reset

*2013-10-23, version 3.5*

Data reset doesn't work.

### 2/5 — 訳

*2013-06-14, version 3.0*

日本語がおかしくて、説明が分かりにくい。

### 2/5 — Hmm...

*2013-05-26, version 3.0*

I thought it looked interesting but I'm confused... The answers are given to you with the question so I don't understand how I'm Being tested...

Needs a fix and ill come back to it.

### 5/5 — 练习

*2013-05-10, version 3.0*

想练习中文口语找我
