Numerus เรียนภาษา แอป สำหรับ Android คำอธิบาย
Oral comprehension of numbers in foreign languages can be challenging. Here’s why:
- Frequency of numbers in ordinary discourse is usually low, so learners struggle to develop a habit of listening to numbers.
- Most words are easy to recognize due to context, whereas numbers are isolated. For example:
With a population of 8 804 190, New York City is the most populated city in the US. The context helps only a little: you can guess millions, but thousands are essentially random. - Some languages construct numerals differently. For example, how to say 95:
- English: ninety five (90 5)
- German: fünfundneunzig (5 and 90)
- French: quatre-vingt-quinze (4-20-15)
The best way to train comprehension is frequent exposure to numbers in real speech. This app provides that:
- A random 10-second clip from a video plays and repeats.
- The user types the number they heard and taps “check”.
- Subtitles appear and the app shows whether the answer is correct.
- The user taps “next” to continue.
