Photo Vocabs

Improving your vocabulary is an essential part of language learning. Linguaphone Connect makes it a simple, fun and effective process. Photo Vocabs are visual dictionaries comprising 16 vocabulary expressions organised around a common theme. A dictionary comprises two albums of eight expressions, one containing foundation vocabulary for that topic and the other containing more advanced vocabulary.

Photo Vocabs help you practice spelling, semantics and memorisation in different ways, thus creating neural connections to help you commit expressions to your long-term memory.

Good to know: authorising access to your microphone allows you to practice pronounciation of the vocabulary by comparing the recorded pronounciation in the Photo Vocab with your own pronounciation

A Photo Vocab comprises 16 vocabulary expressions, divided into two albums of eight expressions each.
Each term is illustrated, translated into your chosen translation language, used in a sample sentence, and includes an audio file for correct pronunciation. For each album, the eight expressions are presented in pairs, with a spelling, contextual placement, and pronounciation exercise. Completing both albums, practising the spelling, playing in the Game Zone (two word puzzles, one image/word matching game and one memorisation of word pairs game) will help you consolidate the learned vocabulary into long-term memory through strengthened neural connections for that learning.
