user experience

Beijing - user Marjan - 14/03/2007
Hi! Our experience with the tool was great! We’ve used it while traveling through China for three weeks. The only words we knew were: Ni Hao (hello) and Tsingtao (Chinese beer). You don’t get around with such a small vocabulary! The Chinese language is very difficult (!) so it helped us to communicate with the Chinese people. We’ve used it to get around by cab and to order in restaurants. One time we were in a cab and we played a view lines from the program: I feel like vomiting and Do you have a tampon? Our female cabdriver had a good laugh about it! Be careful though: if you put your phone next to a Chinese ear: they can get scared!!!
