Know it FOREVER. Each lesson follows a simple and effective three-step process: Build your vocabulary base using a proven flash card method with the integrated Byki learning engine. Experts agree that the most important part of learning a language is rapidly building a foundation of word and phrase knowledge. Byki is the fastest, most direct path to that goal — it “hacks” into your memory and fills it with foreign words and phrases. Explore native language texts, videos and stories as you immerse yourself in the Swedish language. Practise speaking your chosen language by participating in conversational role-plays and dialogues. Perfect your pronunciation by recording your voice and comparing it to a native speaker. Learn and Never Forget. Byki automatically records your learned material and reminds you of older items that may need to be refreshed or studied again. Plus, you can use the built-in tests and online quizzes to test your knowledge at any time. By doing so, you will take your language knowledge from your short-term memory your to long-term memory in the quickest possible time.
