TalkingWords keeps track of  the words and phrases your student knows and needs to learn.  To become an effective communicator one must learn nouns, verbs, adjectives, pronouns, prepositions, and more.  Then the speaker must put these words together.  For many, this is the tricky part.  TalkingWords is a database full of words, phrases, social sayings, questions and all the basic phrase structures to take the student from ground zero to talking.
