00:00Google Translate recently came out with an interesting new feature. It's the
00:05language practice feature. You can see it in the lower right with an academic cap
00:10and I'll click on this and unfortunately it has limited languages. It doesn't have
00:16that many languages right now and I was previously able to add Spanish but for
00:20some reason I can only choose French. So but anyway I'm going to show this. So you
00:25can choose whether you're basic intermediate or advanced and for
00:30example let's say I'm basic and you can describe your goal. Say for example travel
00:34to a new country and you can choose different types of conversations you'd
00:41like to have and it allows you to start practicing. So this is kind of like
00:47Duolingo. You have things like this for example. You can ask, you can have
00:55listening, you can have speaking, ask for the room key. So let's listen, let's see
01:00how this goes.
01:07Okay for some reason the audio I can't hear it. Let me put up the audio here.
01:13Bonjour. J'ai réservé une chambre au nom de Dupont. Est-ce que je peux avoir la clé s'il vous plaît?
01:19So you can practice with that and I actually don't know hardly any French. I was using this
01:26for Spanish but this is a very interesting new feature and later let's say okay I want to change it.
01:35I want to change my learning the language to Spanish and I can have for example ordering food.
01:44Order a coffee. I practice for that. Practice ordering a drink at a bar. For example listening.
01:51Order a drink. You can play this here. Hola camarera. Quiero un vino tinto por favor. Está muy frĂo hoy.
02:01Okay so I know for sure the guy said that but I wasn't really listening that that well. So anyway this
02:10is a really interesting thing and it's kind of an alternative to Duolingo and it's totally for
02:15free in Google Translate. Okay I hope you enjoyed this video. See you in the next one.
