Start the conversation and take your career to the next level, plan the trip of your dreams, or get in touch with your heritage. With a Greenwich or Perrot Library card, learn a language with Mango Languages, online or as an app, through step-by-step lessons for 71 languages and ESL lessons for speakers of 21 languages.
Learning a new language isn’t easy. It is a commitment that requires consistent interaction with the unknown and the unfamiliar, but one which leads to rewarding discoveries along the way. A blend of the right content at the right time, with intelligent algorithms, high-quality audio, and powered by proven methodologies. Mango adapts to your unique learning style, so you pick up on new vocabulary, intuit unfamiliar grammatical structure, and train your pronunciation, all while boosting your cultural IQ.
- Grammar: No interpretation is created equal. Grammar Notes, color-coding, and features that focus on specific grammatical nuances between target and source language strengthens your understanding of the language structure.
- Culture: Etiquette, body language, gestures — set the mood. Culture Notes provide a backdrop to learning material and let the French culture come alive, setting you up to forge deeper connections with the language.
- Vocabulary: Critical thinking and memory-building exercises blend new vocabulary into lesson progress, allowing you to pick up on the structure of your target language so you can apply new content that will be presented in various contexts throughout the course.
- Pronunciation: Didn’t catch that? Hear it again at a conversational speed, hover over for phonetics, or click on the word for an articulated narration. Tone your accent against native speaker audio by activating the voice comparison tool.
