Nice idea, but defective. You'd think they'd at least know how to conjugate verbs, but according to this widget, lost = perder, led = guiar, sent = enviar! What happened to lose, lead, send? Also, if they ask for start and you say comenzar instead of empezar, they mark it wrong. Needs work.
Dear Jonny90 On our first prototype site we stated that the product would help you 'say words right' - instead of 'say words correctly' - this is because the site was written in simple, informal language and 'correctly' would have sounded overly formal in that context. We no longer use that wording and have not done so for since the end of 2008. More up to date discussions about Learn10 can be found at www.getsatisfaction.com/learn10.
The 'gobledegook' sentences are part of our ongoing competition to use all 10 of the daily words in a grammatically correct sentence of under 135 characters in length.
