Expressive Go gives a voice to children and adults who don't use speech. Tap pictures to build a message and the app says it out loud, with grammar that helps the sentence come out right. Every board, every tool and every setting is free. No ads, no subscriptions, no account. GRAMMAR THAT HELPS • Verbs follow the subject: "he eats", "she drinks", "they want" • Time words set the tense: "yesterday" + "go" says "went", "tomorrow" + "go" says "will go" • The Time button switches the next verb to past, future or perfect: "they went", "we will play", "she has eaten" • "is" and "has" forms: "he is running", "we have finished" • Plurals after numbers and quantifiers: "2 cookies", "many friends" • "a" or "an" chosen by sound: "an hour", "a uniform" • Adverbs after action words: "run slowly", "talk quietly" • 150+ irregular verbs and nearly 2,000 action words and phrases THE SAME BOARD AS AT THE PLAYGROUND Smarty Symbols communication boards are installed in more than 650 communities: school playgrounds, city parks, libraries, zoos, water parks and pediatric offices.
