Nashua, N.H., July 28, 2008 – Transparent Language, a leader in language learning solutions, today announced the launch of its new Mandarin Chinese Word of the Day service. The service covers a new word in Mandarin Chinese each day, teaches proper usage with example sentences, and provides native speaker sound for learning proper pronunciation. Language learners may subscribe to have the word delivered via email or through an RSS feed or iGoogle gadget. In addition, blogs and websites can bring the Chinese Word of the Day to their visitors by embedding a free Chinese language widget on their site.
Chinese Word of the Day joins other Word of the Day services offered for Spanish, French, German, Italian, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Irish and English. "The whole world will be watching the games in Beijing this summer", said Michael Quinlan, Transparent Language CEO. "As the world comes together to watch the games and people gain an interest in China and its culture, we think it is important to provide great free resources to learn the Chinese language. Word of the Day joins our free Chinese software and our Chinese language blog as another great resource to help people learn the language."
