International edition
A guided grammar course in 34 languages
For learners of English as a second language, and for GCSE, IELTS and TOEFL revision.
What it is
The same 314-topic reference as the English edition, with the interface and every definition translated into 34 languages: English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Czech, Danish, Greek, Hungarian, Indonesian, Romanian, Norwegian, Swedish, Finnish, Russian, Ukrainian, Turkish, Arabic, Persian, Urdu, Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Punjabi, Somali, Chinese, Cantonese, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and Thai. The worked examples deliberately stay in English — English is the language being learned — and the original English definition can be shown beside the translation whenever you want it.
More than a reference: a course
- Eight-level learning path from beginner to advanced, so a learner always knows what to study next.
- Daily spaced-repetition drills: rate a card Again, Hard, Good or Easy and it returns just before you would forget it (SM-2 scheduling).
- Today dashboard with a daily streak and a study tip in your own language.
- Five-question quiz built from the topics you have opened, re-randomised on every retake.
- Search, section filter and a Custom list, as in every edition.
Hear the English said properly
Reading a rule and saying it out loud are two different skills, so a professionally voiced narrator reads every title, definition and worked example in English, at a speed you choose. You read the explanation in Spanish or Arabic or Japanese, and still hear how the English sentence runs and where the stress falls — listening and pronunciation practice for IELTS and TOEFL, and a consistent model for a class to repeat after.
Who it suits
Students preparing for GCSE English, IELTS or TOEFL; ESL and EFL learners studying on their own; international students arriving at an English-speaking school or university; and teachers who want a course and a reference in one, in the class's own language. Preview mode in the Windows, iPhone, iPad and Android apps lets you try it before buying; any Grammar Index licence unlocks it.
