What is LingoM8?

LingoM8 is your second voice abroad!

LingoM8 is a the most practical, complete and well-structured offline speaking phrase book available, and functions as your second voice while you travel to another country. You don’t need to speak the foreign language for making useful conversation, just let LingoM8 talk for you. LingoM8 PRO contains over 3500 spoken words, phrases and questions spread over 74 different categories and is growing with every update!

What makes LingoM8 so special?

1) LingoM8 is developed with the user perspective in mind.

We asked ourselves one important question.

Which words, phrases and questions are really useful and relevant in various situations abroad?

With this question constantly in mind LingoM8 has become the most practical, complete and well-structured offline speaking phrase book on the market. To make it even better in the future we ask LingoM8 users to send us words, phrases and questions that they would like be added to the APP. This way LingoM8 gets better and better with every update.

2) “Quick Search” option for fast and easy conversation!

Besides the well structured layout of LingoM8 you also have access to a “Quick Search” option which lets you search the complete database on English words, or part of an English word. LingoM8 then displays all the words, phrases and questions which contains these words or part of these words. If you select a line the Italian translation is immediately spoken.

3) Highest quality STUDIO WAV vocal recordings at 44100 Hz converted to 256 kbps MP3 for optimized playback on smartphones!

All vocals are recorded in studio quality and optimized for playing back on smartphones. NO text to speech engines are used but actual REAL vocal recordings. This give the best quality audio together with the correct emotion for every specific situation. These superb quality recordings can never be equaled with low quality text to speech engines who lack emotion and have a sample quality at only 22100 hz which is half the quality of our recordings.

4) No Internet Connection Required!

Complete Offline access. The usefulness for our end users is our main focus and we know it is hard or expensive sometimes to get an internet connection abroad but with LingoM8 you don’t need an internet connection after you have purchased the PRO version. The complete spoken phrasebook is installed local on you smartphone.
