The Dating module adds over 160 special social expressions and vocabulary terms to Version 5 of the MobiLearn English-German Talking Phrasebook. When this add-on module is installed on a Pocket PC that contains the required Talking Phrasebook, Dating becomes a new subcategory under the Conversation category. For greatest efficiency, we recommend that you install this program on a CF or SD storage card.

This module contains some essential adult language that parents may consider unsuitable for children.

Note: For elementary terms related to dating and socializing, first purchase MobiLearn's 500 Nouns or 500 More Nouns add-ons, which contain vocabulary fundamentals. The Dating add-on module described here extends the vocabulary with more specialized terms.

How It Works

Suppose you're at a party in Berlin and want to invite a new acquaintance to dinner:

1. On the home screen, select English-German as the (From)-(To) languages.
2. Tap the Conversation icon.
3. In the Conversation list, tap the Dating category.
4. Scroll through the Dating phrase list and tap "Would you like to have dinner with me?"

You'll see the German equivalent, "Könnte ich Sie für ein gemeinsames Abendessen interessieren?," in the gold translation window. To hear it out loud, tap the translation window. Then when you're ready to order, just repeat the phrase to express yourself in natural German. To reverse the direction and translate from German to English, select German-English as the (From)-(To) languages, then proceed in the same way.

This add-on module requires the MobiLearn Talking Phrasebook (English-German), Version 5 or higher, as a foundation.  For further language tools in this series, see MobiLearn's other add-on modules: Cuisine, Driving, 500 Nouns, and 500 More Nouns.
