LingoZING is the only interactive audio-comic-graphic novel narrative based language and subject learning tool for all ages. Learn English, French, Portuguese, Spanish and Italian the fun way by immersing into fantastic stories in a variety of genres. Experience familiar worlds (Witchblade, One Trick Rip Off), or new ones (Lumberjanes, Wytches) and discover the easiest natural way to learn. THE BENEFITS: LingoZING is efficient because it engages into a context. The brain is stimulated and rewarded in a fundamentally different way from traditional methods of learning languages, enabling you to retain a deeper grasp of a language in a much shorter period of time. Important learning aspects like real world dialogue usage, inflection, intonation and vocabulary are all presented in a natural context, easy to comprehend. Have you ever watched a foreign movie and wished you could control the playback speed to learn some of the dialogue? Wished there was an audio option to hear the characters in comics? LingoZING! combines both! Retention comes easily when learning in the context of an intriguing story-line. WHO IS IT FOR? LingoZING is for language learners of all ages, business executives, parents, teachers, comic readers and educational institutions who are looking for a fun supplement to learn a language. HOW DOES IT WORK? Download and open your favorite title, just like back in the old days, then switch between languages as often as you please, look up the vocabulary, have it read to you in normal speed or slowed down. Save vocabulary when you wish to dig deeper. Listen, repeat and record text - then share it with friends to brag about your new skills! Once you familiarize with your chosen story, you start to live in the language. This allows the mind to instinctively pick up cultural tid-bits which helps in assimilating the spirit of a language. THE PRODUCTION: LingoZING was developed by a handful of culturally diverse people, most of them with backgrounds in the arts and entertainment - and they learned languages using comic books! An incredible effort has gone into actors lending their voices to bring the diverse titles to life, resulting in a rich tapestry of dialogue and setting for each language selected. FEATURES: - Wide selection of titles. Choose from Comedy, History, and Superhero to Family, Sci-Fi, Horror and other genres. Browse, discover and download your favorite titles, classified by genre, age, reading level and creators. - Read, Play. Sit back, and have LZPlay read the book to you. Or interactively zoom in, read, play and switch between the languages as you please. Test your understanding by reading the translations. - Slow Play. Hear every line spoken in a poised voice that enunciates clearly and slowly so you can hear the correct pronunciation. - Pronunciation Check. Practice and record your voice over a frame. - Share your results interactively with an LZGram (FB, Instagram, Twitter) - Dictionary. Learn synonyms by looking up the words in the dictionary. - Notes. Bookmark and separately store any frame using the Circle and Save feature without the boring 'copy and paste’ routine.
