hey come here I've got something really
exciting to tell you about so last week
the guys at HiNative contacted me and
asked me if I would review their product
now I get lots of requests from
different brands and companies asking me
to review their products and usually I
take a quick look and I go I'm not
really happy to talk about this on a
video I'm not sure of my audience would
be interested and so I don't bother but
when I checked out what HiNative have
to offer
I got really really excited so we all
know that you guys are here to learn
English right but you might not know
that i am trying to learn another
language too I'm trying to learn Spanish
which is why I got particularly excited
about the HiNative app so HiNative
is this really cool app that allows you
to say hi to a native of the language
you're trying to learn and they cover
over a hundred and ten different
languages so it's highly likely that
your language is going to be covered and
English is definitely one of them
let me walk you through it so it's a
free download from the app store it's
available on iOS and Android and you can
even use it in your browser so once
you've downloaded the app you open it up
and you can either sign in with twitter
facebook or with an email address so I'm
going to sign up with twitter because
it's nice and easy, going to sign up with
like a native
then it will ask you to enter a username
will just go with what it suggests then
you choose which language you'are already
fluent in so I'm saying English and what
is your chosen language that you're
interested in
so I'm going to say that I'm interested
in learning spanish and i'm a beginner
so once you've set that you move on it
will ask if you want to sign up for the
newsletter use and then it does a little
tutorial to walk you through how it all
works
to make life easy it gives you different
question formats so you can ask how do I
say this so I'm going to ask how do i
say happy birthday in Spanish and i'm
going to post that up and then I simply
have to wait
so as you can see within 10 minutes of
posting my question i received an answer
from a native and then I received
another answer from another native
confirming what the first person has
said so you can also test your
pronunciation skills by asking if this
sounds natural so I'm going to ask if i
sound natural saying feliz cumpleanos
which they've told me is happy birthday
in Spanish i'm going to record it now
feliz cumpleanos Feliz cumpleanos and
then i will post it and wait for my
response you can also ask to have
example sentences using a certain word
you can ask what does this mean
perhaps you've heard some lyrics or an
idiom that you don't understand and you
can ask what it means you can ask what
the differences between two different
words and then you've got the option for
a free question and you can also ask
about a country or region about their
culture or traditions so how let me get
this straight you can ask any question
about the language and receive a
response really quickly from a native
you can even get feedback on your
pronunciation and in some cases you get
a voice message back from the native
this is insanely good guys and what's
even more exciting is that this app is
free of course there's a premium version
and that gives you extra features but
the core functionality of this app is
free and so this is going to help to
boost your English learning to fold
threefold 100-fold this gets my full
100% recommendation i suggest that you
go and download it now I'm going to be
signing up as an English speaker wanting
to learn Spanish okay so that's all I
have to talk to you about today guys i
hope that you find that helpful and good
luck to the guys HiNative I love what
