Being able to scrape by in different languages has helped me and i wanted to impart that love of languages to her. she enjoys learning new words each day and always uses this app on a daily basis. Yoruba 101 makes learning fun and inclusive, and is a great tool for anyone beginning to learn the language. It has sections on the alphabet, common words and syllables and the all important quiz games that test your knowledge. It also is very traditional the background music is a soothing nostalgic rhythm that takes you back to a world of village children and moonlight stories and would spark the interest of any budding historian. This app is great as it starts by sounding out the pronunciations which i believe makes learners more confident knowing they can pronounce a word correctly. It sparks a yearning for learning new words and interests. My daughter introduced the app to her older cousin who is Jamaican and she also uses yoruba words learnt to replace English where possible and impressed her grandad but reading and pronouncing the words correctly at age 7. this child previously an aversion to all things African. I am looking forward to the additional modules for numbers, colours etc when they come around. Well done to the team behind this wonderful and very much necessary community service. ### 5/5 — Love it! *2013-07-06* Thanks love the app. Great for beginners!
