## What is What's That? Words in French, Spanish, and German?

How do you say “underpants” in German? Why IS there a liquor bottle in the office? WHO left pizza in the bedroom?!

Simply select a scene, then tap an object. “What’s That?” shows and speaks the translation. Memorized it? Flick that translation off the screen and learn something new.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2024-01-20*

Makes a game of learning nouns. Being older, I would appreciate larger pictures of the objects, and more space between them, as I sometimes inadvertently touch the wrong item as they are close together. This is probably not a problem for younger folks!

### 5/5 — Fun and useful

*2023-07-15*

This is a fun way to learn a lot of everyday words in French, Spanish and German - like an interactive visual dictionary. The illustrations are beautiful and the words are clearly pronounced. Maybe What’s that 2 in the future?

### 5/5 — Give it a try

*2023-03-25*

This is a really useful app.

### 5/5 — I Love What’s New!

*2020-08-17*

This app is great! I’m in the process of learning French and I love how the app gives the words when touched and I liked taking the test. I can take it multiple times if I need to and it’s helping to build my confidence in learning the language. I definitely recommend this app for beginning to learn a new language. German is also on my list of languages I’d like to learn and you can switch to learn German or Spanish as well. I’m very pleased so far. I love that they are real speakers saying the words it’s helping my pronunciation as well. Excellent app.😍

### 5/5 — Love Learning with this approach

*2019-05-07*

My problem is that I NEED MORE!  I learned all of the words within three days (I have studied Spanish long ago.) but then wanted more. Items of clothing.  The bathroom.  Laundry room.  Garage. Patio.  Sunroom.  Art studio. Attic. Basement. Porch. I’d be happy to come up with photos and/or a list of objects. Make this big enough and you could be offered big money by one of the more “traditional” language courses. The multi sensory way of learning is the best, and you’ve got the testing format down. Please don’t stop now! Thanks.

### 5/5 — Beautiful!

*2018-07-30*

I’m hopeful this app continues to get improved with more content.  I absolutely love it.  Maybe add Italian and other languages in the future?

### 5/5 — Great way to learn!

*2018-03-09, version 1.1*

This app is especially helpful when first learning the sounds of the language. After “learning “ the items, I found it very helpful to not look at the words and just listen to the audio and then select the item in the test phase.

### 2/5 — OK

*2017-02-03*

I wish they offerred an option to switch to Latin American Spanish.. The lisping accent from spain is not what I want to learn from.. Its such a turn off for the product for me

### 3/5 — NOT Latin-American Spanish

*2016-02-16*

I have nothing against the "other" Spanish, but I have no interest in learning words and pronunciations that are not used in countries outside of Spain.

### 5/5 — Nicely done!

*2015-11-19*

This is a very well constructed app! It is easy to use, visually pleasing and enjoyable to use.
Congratulations!
