Each language has an introduction video to the language and cultural context, including The Lord’s Prayer, greetings, pronunciation, activities to share new words and phrases and a customisable introduction to practise and share.
It features:
- synchronised narration in Pacific languages and English
- swipe to read or touch to hear
- drag and drop puzzles
