TLX translates certain words and phrases, not the voiceover. You
cannot change the voice from male to female or vice versa.
Use the Show translation check box to turn on or off the display of phrase
translation in the Learning mode.
If you notice poor accuracy of speech recognition, try choosing different options in
the Noise level and Low pass filter settings.
By default the application pronounces phrase translation. You can opt to repeat
the Recorded voice or None instead.
Usage of Audio PhraseBook for Foreign
Language Studies
First, listen to a phrase as recorded by a native foreign language speaker and
then pronounce it by yourself. The device then compares the phrase you have
spoken with the prerecorded sample helping you to improve your pronunciation.
Select the desired topic and subtopic.
If necessary, change the source language. The source language should be
your native tongue.
Select the desired phrase.
To hear the phrase translation pronounced, tap the icon in the translation
area.
Repeat this several times until you learn the correct pronunciation.
Change the translation direction.
Tap and hold the icon.
Say the newly learned phrase into the microphone. Position your mouth near
the built-in microphone at a distance of 3 – 6 inches (8 – 15 cm).
The phrase you have said in the foreign language will be compared to the model
pronunciation. If you have pronounced the phrase correctly, the device will
recognize it and then show or pronounce its translation in your native language. If
the device does not recognize you – simply repeat the above steps.
The accuracy of speech recognition depends on the level of external noise. It is
best to ensure silence in the room where you practice your pronunciation.
To achieve the best results, please consider the following.
