If you thought learning French was no fun, you obviously haven't tried out Daphnée - a new iOS application, which is currently available in the App Store. For $2.99, Apple fans can watch Daphnée - a "lovely French teacher" - talk you through the basics of the language of love.
Follow Daphnée, a true Parisian, who will introduce you to her beloved city and will teach you the real urban French, from the basics to how to survive in a club with hundreds of ready-to-use sentences. Whether you're looking for some ready-to-use and fun expressions for your next trip to Paris, or if you're already familiar with the basics and you want to improve your spoken French, Daphnée is the ideal language guide.Daphnée treats users to six "episodes," each of which provide students with a different scenario. For example, chapter three - "Le Shopping" - teaches users the language needed for a Parisian shopping trip. Each video (and there are 23 of them) includes subtitles, which help users understand the French Daphnée speaks. Furthermore, a quiz at the end of each lesson ensures that the vocabulary has been learned. For more information, check out the application in the App Store. It's currently available for $2.99. Alternatively, take a look at the video below for a sample of what learning French with Daphnée is like.
