About this app

Learn Manx is your ideal introduction to Manx Gaelic providing an exciting and enjoyable start to learning the language of the Isle of Man. Designed to encourage learners to speak, the first ten units provide you with the basic patterns needed to start using the language with the exercises and dialogues helping students to become familiar with conversational Manx.

The App will benefit anyone wishing to start using Manx as well as those who understand some of the language but who would like to refresh their language skills. With its voice-recording and playback function, the exercises encourage you to speak the language by answering questions orally and comparing your answers to model responses.

The revision lessons that accompany the course use the Isle of Man TT Races as a key theme and help to develop language skills in an enjoyable and humorous way.

This App is based on the Culture Vannin's successful adult language course, Saase-jeeragh.

Key features:
★ Hundreds of words and basic phrases to give a foundation in the language
★ Respond to questions and compare with a model answer
★ Dialogues and comprehension
★ Summaries of key language patterns
★ Integrated bilingual dictionary
★ Flashcard learning system to help revise vocabulary and phrases

The production of this learning resource has been made possible thanks to the very generous financial support from Sure Isle of Man.

App is clear and easy to navigate. An issue im having is that while reading the Manx words and (attempting) to pronounce them the progress bar covers the words once you reach half way. I am experiencing this problem on an s9+

This app used to be beautifully designed years ago. On my Google Pixel 2, I can't even use the new version of this app. Whenever I click on a lesson in the list, the app is non-responsive. So I can't even do a lesson. I really hope I will be able to use this app again sometime in the future as there as very few resources for even learning this language.

I had an issue where an update made the app unusable on Android 10. The navigation controls at the bottom conflicted with the operating system's own controls. The developer got straight onto the problem, and rolled out a fix in a day. Feer vie! Gura mie ayd.
