Chinese Touch 1.5

Description
~~~~~~~~~~~

Chinese Touch is a language learning tool for Nintendo DS with a focus on
Chinese. In contrast to many other applications (there are not that many for Nintendo DS anyway) Chinese Touch does not try to provide a complete course for a specific level of language skill, but is meant more as a generic tool to make your own learning docs easily portable and more accessable for your individual needs. Many learners, especially tech-savvy ones, already transcribe word lists or even text from their text books to the computer (try it, its a good training already) to take advantage of dictionary programs, flashcard applications and so on or even use digital sources in the first place. So all you have to do is to convert your digitally available texts and word lists into a collection of UTF8-encoded plain text files and copy them onto to your flash memory cart into the directory structure Chinese Touch understands. That way Chinese Touch can assist you in practicing reading and writing and memorizing words right on your
DS wherever you are, whenever you have a couple of minutes of spare time, using your prefered learning materials. Apart from that the ready-to-use program archive available from the downloads section already includes a beginners guide to Chinese (Mandarin) from wikibooks.org. Just extract its contents to your flash memory cart and give it a try.
