Learning Spanish - Day 1

Numbers

The goal for today, is to find a free app that will teach me the following numbers:

Ones	1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
Tens	10,20,30,40,50,60,70,80,90
Hundreds	100,200,300,400,500,600,700,800,900,1000

First Web Site

Site	Url	Type of site	Notes
Google Translate	Ones	Translator	Says each word with nice voice, very understandable
Google Translate	Tens	Translator	Says each word with nice voice, very understandable

So, using my measuring stick; let's see how Google Translate faired.

Spelling
Challenge me to spell	Y
show me the pronunciation	N
Listening
listen to each word	Y
hear different voices of each word	N
word at different speeds	N

Google Translate is a language translator application.  I like this app.  I'm sure it wasn't meant to be a learning/teaching application, but, I have to admit, I use it to translate words often.

So, I recommend this application as a starting point. 

Learning Spanish Language

Over the next 30 days, I will use a bunch of free applications to help build my Spanish vocabulary. Here, I will show my progress, as I download, install and use these apps to help me build this vocabulary I need. I know we all learn differently, but, I will honestly try and be objective, and give each Application I use, a fair review. I learn best by doing. Writing each word, and then repeating it over and over, and finally it sticks. Writing is not the only tool I need. I need to be able to say the word, and "hear" it. There is no chance of me learning by reading alone.
This is how I will judge each app.

spelling

1) Does application challenge me to spell each word?

2) Does application show me the pronunciation of each word?

listening

1) Does application allow me to listen to each word?

2) Does application allow me to hear different voices of each word?

3) Does application allow me to hear each word at different speeds?

arrangement

1) does application group words into smart sets

2) is application word sets thought out, or just a dump of words??

3) what types of words are taught? (verbs, nouns, adjectives)?

games

1) are games used to help me study?

2) do the games work correctly?

3) were the games useful? was I able to learn?

4) did I like the game?
