French course + Collins Dictionary

French course + Collins Dictionary is an educational software application that helps you learn French with the aid of modules that focus on grammar, pronunciation, phrases, interactive exercises and tests, pictures and photos, as well as a dictionary with search support.

The user interface looks well-structured and easy to work with. You are offered the freedom to choose between three learning modules which are suitable for beginners, intermediate or advanced users, do exercises, or search throughout a dictionary.

What’s more, the program comes with support for a small floating window which allows you to perform searches within a dictionary. You just need to input the words into English in order to get the corresponding translation, meanings, and grammatical details.

You can copy the translated word to the clipboard, change the looks of the minimalist dictionary by activating several preset themes, as well as adjust the font and size of the text.

A help manual is also included in the package in case you need detailed explanations about the utility’s functions.

The learning modules contain multiple lessons which focus upon helping you learn new words. You can listen to various French conversations, record your own voice and check out the intonation curves with the aid of a graph, play the recordings, and read aloud French phrases by repeating them after native speakers, as well as do exercises where you have to complete the missing information based on an audio presentation.

French course + Collins Dictionary also comes packed with a built-in text editor which gives you the freedom to create personal notes. You may copy the information to the clipboard, perform basic clipboard tasks (cut, copy, paste), change the font and size of the text, and modify the text alignment.

The application also reveals a list with all teaching materials (e.g. vocabulary, grammar) that are embedded in each module, and lets you create bookmarks with your favorite topics.

The revising method can be used for learning phrases, expressions, constructions, collocations, compounds, or other items. You can manually add the entries that you want to revise later on. The tool also reveals statistics about the items that you need to repeat, learn, or re-examine.

Aside from the minimalist dictionary, French course + Collins Dictionary helps you work with an extra dictionary that provides thorough information about translations and offers multiple entries and references.

French course + Collins Dictionary comes with comprehensive materials for helping you study French, and is suitable for beginners and professionals alike.
