Fluenz Mandarin 1+2 Windows 1.1, Next-Generation Chinese Language Learning Software

Fluenz Mandarin 1+2 Windows 1.1, Next-Generation Chinese Language Learning Software

Other products by Fluenz

 

 

Product Features

  • We custom made Fluenz Mandarin as language learners who knew there had to be a better way to learn languages. The multi-media application was specifically designed to help English-speakers gain fluency in Chinese.

  • To create a live learning enviroment, similar to what you are used to in a classroom, language tutor Sonia Gil guides you on video every step of the way.

  • Adults do not learn in the same way as children; we need to use the rules of languages we know to learn other languages. Fluenz leverages your knowledge of English to accelerate your learning of Mandarin, with an emphasis on words you are most likely to use.

  • A next-generation platform blends beautiful full motion video with engaging, interactive workouts, including voice recording so you can compare your accent to native speech.

  • Included is the Fluenz Mandarin 1+2 DVD-ROM for your computer (Windows 2000, XP, or Vista), an audio CD for additional training, and the handy Fluenz Navigator for on-the-go referencing of important words and phrases.

 

 

 

 

Because you searched for “china”…

“Fluenz Mandarin is a next-generation software application with highly interactive workouts, and an instructor on full-motion video guiding the learner in English every step of the way. Instead of what’s traditionally taught, Fluenz is about relevant content for communication in today’s China.”

 

 

Product Description
Fluenz is a software company founded by a group of passionate language learners who felt there had to be another way. At the center of our Mandarin program is language tutor Sonia Gil, who went to China herself to learn Mandarin. Sonia is there to guide you throughout the program, blending full motion video explanations in English with a series of highly engaging workouts, helping you understand and speak relevant Mandarin. The Fluenz system follows three clear principles: 1) Live Learning - Learning a new language, especially one as unfamiliar as Mandarin, is difficult to do on your own. With Live Learning, we have brought to computer education the essence of the classroom experience: a teacher. All words and phrases are thoroughly explained and you are guided through a structured learning process. 2) Leverage Learning - Modern linguistics tells us that as adults, we need to use the tools of the language we already know and apply them to learning a new language. With Fluenz, you learn first in English and relate basic Mandarin grammar and syntax to that of English, rather than trying to understand Mandarin grammar with Mandarin logic. Using the English you already know to learn Mandarin is the essence of Leverage Learning. 3) Relevant Learning - You need to start learning the words and structures that will allow you to communicate the most in the least amount of time, taking into consideration which words are easier to remember for English speakers, which expressions make the most logical sense to us, and which are most useful–”cell phone” instead of “red apple.” Being able to communicate right away in simple ways is the key to Relevant Learning; And, with more than 13 types of workouts covering verbal expression and comprehension, as well as reading and writing, you practice and internalize what you learn in the video lessons.

Chine Forbidden City (PC CD DVD Case Import)

Chine Forbidden City (PC CD DVD Case Import)

by Cryo

 

 

Product Features

  • Intrigue and Adventure in Ancient China.

  • Educational And Entertaining With Exceptional Visuals And Renderings.

  • Solve A Mystery And Learn Of Ancient China In the Process!

  • EXTREMELY Rare Title!

  • Windows 95/98/ME (Works w/ XP Tested) 

 

 

Product Description
China: The Forbidden City is a Cryo title, and if you live in the U.S. you know how notoriously difficult Cryo titles are to get your mitts on. China is one of a series of mild, beautiful, and educational games by Cryo, including games set in Egypt, Versailles, and the upcoming Aztec. It does a remarkable, almost eerie job, of recreating The Forbidden City in Peking as it existed in the 18th Century AD. As you play the game you get a real sense of the city’s vastness, its complexity, and its unity of design. Additionally, the game gives you a vivid sense of the way the royal court worked, politically, socially and ritualistically. The conversations are full of the rich formality of Chinese court speech of the period, and its authentic feel adds greatly to the immersive quality of this game. In this first-person point and click game, you play a newly-promoted royal investigator who’s assigned by the emperor himself to solve the mysterious death of a highly-ranking eunuch. The emperor gives you until sundown to solve the mystery - no pressure! The storyline is actually quite intriguing, involving forgery, theft, blackmail and treason. The game is extremely linear, as your character follows a ribbon of clues left in various parts of the City. China includes an entertaining series of puzzles, many of which are solved by using an in-game encyclopedia. In this sense the game is quite similar to another game about China, Qin. This sort of fact-finding to solve game puzzles infuriates some players, but I don’t mind it at all. This encyclopedia also allows you to learn more about characters and buildings that you come across. The year is 1775. A murder has been just committed. The Emperor Qianlong wants you to find the assassin. During your investigation, you’ll meet typical Chinese characters of the epoch, and uncover a net of intrigues.

From the Manufacturer
Power Chinese was designed to meet the specific learning needs of native English speakers. You can spend as little as 30 minutes a day and in just eight weeks you will have covered the equivalent of one year of college-level Chinese.

Using an innovative learning strategy which breaks down and then reconstructs the Chinese language, Power Chinese will have you reading, writing, and using essential Chinese in no time.

Power Chinese begins by tackling the most difficult aspects of Chinese for the typical English learner, including pronunciation, tones, and key aspects of syntax and grammar. But don’t worry!

Challenging Concepts Made Easy

These and all other concepts introduced in Power Chinese are presented as comparisons to how things are done in English–allowing you to focus on those areas that are most different from English and making learning Chinese easier and more enjoyable.

Power Chinese is based on the same award-winning method that earned Power Japanese dozens of stellar reviews and awards. The Power Method–uniquely suited to meet the needs of busy learners–includes:

  • Memory techniques that make information more digestible and more retainable to adult learners

  • A less intimidating approach that leaves out information that is not absolutely relevant to understanding the language

  • Extensive use of graphics to heighten right-brain participatory learning

Wings Over China

Wings Over China

Wings Over China

products by Abacus

 

 

Product Description

Wings over China puts you in the cockpit of the Hell’s Angel of World War II fighters–the fast, mean, and scary-looking P-40 Warhawk. This add-on for Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator brings you 12 new aircraft from the Pacific theater, new maps and background scenery for China, and 20 new missions. The shark-toothed P-40 flown by the Flying Tigers is the star of the show, roaring into combat in all but two of the missions. Unlike the original Combat Flight Simulator, Wings over China does not include missions from the Axis perspective–the six new Japanese planes can only be flown in Quick Combat mode or in multiplayer games on Microsoft’s Game Zone.

If you play Combat Flight Simulator, you’ll want this game. The aircraft paint jobs are beautiful, the Asian scenery looks jungle-riffic, and the new flight models force you to fight the way the Flying Tigers fought, especially at higher difficulty levels. Getting caught in a turning battle with the more maneuverable Japanese fighters is suicide–your P-40 is built for quick climbs, fast dives, and high-firepower kills delivered by the airborne equivalent of a drive-by shotgun blast.

The manual contains historical notes on the air war in China, technical specs for the new planes, and instructions for playing the new missions. These instructions are not complete–don’t pay too much attention to them and miss the fact that Wings over China supports a Custom Campaign that allows you to play through the entire history of the Flying Tigers. –Rob Heinsoo
