Anata 17+

Anata takes a video or audio file and extracts the voices and subtitle or transcribed texts from it. You can learn to speak the texts by following the original voices with all different types of emotion. After all there is always a story behind these voices that you are so familiar and love, it makes easier for you to remember them. You can repeat playing particular texts until you fully grasp how to say them correctly and natively.

Important features include:

(1) Support two modes for texts extraction: subtitle extraction using Vision Processing and transcription using Speech Recognition Processing

(2) Link to your favourite online language learning tools
- You can study the texts sentence by sentence and word by word with your favourite online tools
- Some tool provides romanization for Japanese and pinyin for Chinese that can allow you to quickly learn how to pronounce each word
- Some tool provides Accent guidance for Japanese that can help you grasp the rhythm
- Some tool provides grammatical breakdown to help you identify each part of speech
- You can highlight individual word and phrase of the subtitle to find out their meaning and usage

Anata is meant to be a supplementary tool to your language learning need. It does not replace your main standard and essential learning courses and textbooks. You are advised to acquire a basic knowledge of a language (eg basic grammar) before you can reap the benefit of using Anata to improve your proficiency.
