Study and memorize new words with Worddio in a language of your choice while doing something else.
Worddio is the first non-interactive application for memorizing new words based on the symbiosis of two of the most popular methods for studying vocabulary.
Worddio focuses on the problem of people with less spare time who are struggling with the memorization of foreign words. Worddio’s team partners with plenty of language schools and colleges. Thanks to them and their support, we developed and continue to advance this project. Worddio is a tool that helps people who are wanting to enrich their vocabulary. The application does not promise that will help you learn a new language entirely, rather than to help you with memorizing the new words you need instantly and easily. The team strongly recommends its students to study foreign languages, enroll language courses and to use the Worddio simultaneously as a helping tool in their vocabulary memorization.
Worddio offers three main features that will help you with memorization, pronunciation and spelling:
*Learn new words!
Listen and memorise the words you have chosen being pronounced by native speakers while you are working out, walking in park, cooking, performing your daily tasks, driving or anywhere else on-the-go. Swap the moments when you listen to music with studying new words. Listen to your selection of words four or five times in order to memorise the words and their proper articulation.
* Practice your pronunciation!
Record your pronunciation and compare your recordings with those of native speakers. Record yourself over and over again and keep comparing until you improve your articulation.
* Test your skills!
Test your skills. Select a category and a group of words and test what you have learned. Share your success with friends.
The Worddio method:
We carried out a thorough research and interview amongst plenty of linguistic experts, foreign language teachers, as well as full-time university students who are studying languages and have employed alternative studying approach. This enabled us to create a symbiosis of two popular methods for studying new words: the Pimsleur method, which is known for its repetitive pattern of perceiving words by listening to native speakers and the flashcard method, which is renowned for its challenge to guess a word in your language once you hear it in a foreign one. Based on a combination of those two methods, Worddio consists of preliminary listening to a number of pair of words in your native tongue and the foreign language you have chosen to study.
The languages and number of words recorded by native speakers, which Worddio offers thus far are:
Arabic, 8797 words
