Software That Will Help You Learn Japanese

Learning Japanese is a very ambitions endeavor and can profit you in many ways, no matter if you are learning it for personal or for professional reasons. There are many ways in which you can learn this language, as you can attend Japanese learning classes or you can begin to learn it from your own home, with the use of Japanese language software packages. Two of the most used and easy to use such software packages are Instant Immersion Japanese, a 2 CD package produced by Topics Entertainment and Learn Japanese Now!, a more expensive set, sold by Transparent Language.

You can get both of these software packages in any store selling foreign languages learning materials and you can find them for a reasonable amount of money: Instant Immersion Japanese can be found for $10 while Learn Japanese Now! Can cost you up to $40.

Instant Immersion Japanese

This is one of the cheapest software packages available which deal with teaching you the Japanese language. There are 2CDs in the set, one covering the basics of the language and the second one covering some more in depths aspects of the Japanese language. Instant Immersion Japanese also includes an audio recording feature, with which you can record yourself speaking Japanese. You can then compare your recordings with the already recorded versions of the same phrases found on the CD.

If you are completely new to the Japanese language, it is recommended you start with the first CD and once you have mastered the basic grammar rules and have learnt quite a few phrases and words, you can move on the second CD.

Considering the fact that the entire software package is not at all expensive and very easy and intuitive to learn, Instant Immersion Japanese is a recommended product if you are looking for a software Japanese learning tool. It is especially recommended if you are completely new to the language and you have no idée on any Japanese words and rules. However, if you want a more in-depth solution and if you already know some Japanese, you should look somewhere else.

Another software package used to teach you Japanese is Learn Japanese Now!

This software package costs a bit more than Instant Immersion Japanese, but it also a few more features. It includes word games as well as speech recording features together with interactive lessons and tutorials to ease your Japanese learning efforts. However, an important element which this software solution lacks is writing and reading lessons. The soft package also presents a series of bugs and problems which are somewhat annoying as they can block the program randomly. However, this may be a problem specific to the test version reviewed.

Software tools can be very useful when you are trying to learn a foreign language, as they offer a greater interactivity compared to other Japanese learning ways (it is easier to learn proper pronunciation with audio files), but most people still prefer using specialized books as their main learning method.
