Xbox One Language app anyone?

[Fullmetalpanic009]

Yeah, I agree, I'm a Southerner as well and my Xbox has no issues with my voice.

I guess it really depends on how you speak entirely. Depends on the voice quality and take into account the noise on the background.

Well that may be the case there. I have no issues to it anyways.

 

[Anomaly0302]

Most definitely. It has to have accents and dialects down. I've gotten frustrated with some language programs that suck with my accent.

I guess they should add something on the options to know what accent you are using so the console can understand you better.

That would be a lot of work but it could work though.

The best phrase that I know in Japanese is Itadakimasu. haha. Love food.

That means, "Let's eat!". And you want to know what to say after you eat? "Gochisousama de****a" and it means "Thank you for the fine meal". ;-D

 

[Fullmetalpanic009]

I know a few words as well, but mostly negative words. Haha.

I saw this today on Steam...A new language game called Influent. It looks like they have a few languages already with a bunch more in the works. Not sure how good it is. For the moment, I'll stick to my Rosetta Stone, Pimeslur and My Spanish Coach for my DS.

Portability is key for me. If I can't practice on the go, I fail completely. I'm always looking for new apps, though. This looks like it might be worth a try. Thanks for the heads up.

What the heck?! Forum thinks the desh---ta is the word for human waste? Man, gotta use the real japanese letters XD hahahah. As for the negative words, just be careful out there. you never know if a Japanese is just nearby and he or she hears you. Hahahah.

There's a lot of that. But I can see that if this language app were to hit the Xbox One, they can even integrate Smartglass! Oh yeah, that'd make portability possible.

So you're a Rosetta Stone user? Well, I don't like it but to each his/her own I guess. I guess if it helps you, then good.

 

[jstep]

I have it...Didn't pay for it-A friend gave it to me. It's installed on my computer but I do more Pimselur in my car than I honestly do Rosetta Stone.

 

[knives0302]

Wow. Now that's lucky. I had to pay for it though when I had it before.

I have things that I downloaded online but I got them for free. More accurate translators compared to google translate.
