Garmin Language Guide for nuviNuvi users can access the Garmin Language Guide, with data provided by Oxford University Press. This software suite contains a multilingual word bank, phrase bank, and five bilingual dictionaries. The multilingual word bank and phrase bank supports nine languages and dialects, including American English, British English, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, European Portuguese, European Spanish, and Latin American Spanish. The Language Guide lets travelers look up and translate more than 17,000 words or 20,000 phrases per language. Through the unit’s text-to-speech interface (offered only on the nüvi) , users can get a spoken pronunciation of each entry in the word bank—along with gender and part-of-speech information. Garmin Language Guide, June 22, 2007 The Garmin Language guide for the Garmin Nuvi works as promised, the phrases makes it easy to transalate a whole pre-selected sentence in the languages provided in the Guide, you cannot write sentences and have the language Guide Transalate. This is a shame since you may need a particular sentence transalated that the Guide will not be able to handle. But it has enough phrases and words to get by in case of an emergency. The text to speech program works excellent and it does a real decent work of pronouncing the words correctly. To Buy or Not to Buy, this is entirely up to you, personally I purchased it more as a learning guide and to have my Nuvi 680 be more robust. Great Language help, May 29, 2007 I have learned Italian and this will be a great dictionary while traveling but I really bought it to learn French. The spoken words help learn the very difficult French pronunciations. Best software I ever bought. Garmin LAnguage Guide, December 05, 2007 Great product easy to use and gues what, it actually teaches me Spanish!! |
