Software Reviews of Talk Now! Learn Amharic - Beginning Level [Old Version]
Customer Review: even if you enjoy being treated as if you were 4, its still not worth it.
Summary: 1 Stars
Eurotalk apparently uses the same vocabulary lists and activities for its entire foreign language series. This Amharic CD-Rom teaches you such essential words as "teddy bear" and "raspberry", neither of which are terribly common in Ethiopia, while neglecting "injeera" and "chick peas" &c. Also, the vocab word comes up in Ge'ez script, but no transliteration is made avaliable. In fact, there are no script lessons at all on this CD-Rom.
Also for the vocabulary, two humans, resembling the most obnoxious of ESL teachers, on the screen act as if they are saying the words, but simply mouth some random muted utterance. It is annoying and distracting (imagine the word "strawberry" articulated while a man mouths "car" while moving around herky-jerky style and uncontrolably blinking). Better to spend the extra money on the Appleyard CD/Book combo. Please believe me.
