Gradint自己学外语软件

Gradint 只用声音, 所以你能集中发音。 (也意味你能一面梳洗一面听, 因为不需要盯着显示器看。) Gradint 或者做MP3(或其他声音文件格式)让你以后听, 或者直接播放而试试适应你的紧急打断。 所用的词语或者是真正录音或者是机器声音。 你可以随时把词语加到你的目录。 Gradint 能管理一万多词语的积攒。也能帮你排练诗歌等。

Gradint 是免费的，是《通用公共授权》的《自由软件》, 用GNU General Public License (GPL v3). The latest release is v0.9979.

如何安装

1. 下载合适的译本:
   • 视窗操作系统 (不需要管理人员) 下载视窗 (Windows) 本而打开。 (Don't worry about the background gradint-wrapper.exe.)
     如果你学习中文, 请也下载 Cheng Yali 的华语声音 (听示范) (也有低音版) 或 Cameron Wong 的粤语声音, 比较大的下载但是没有比Gradint所包括的声音那么机器性。 视窗能打开; 别的作业系统把它放在Gradint 的卷宗。
   • 苹果机(Mac OS X)下载 苹果机本, 打开包裹, 打开Gradint.
   • Linux, Unix 等, 包括每个孩子一台笔记型电脑(OLPC)和网络储存设备(NAS), 下载 Linux 译本, 做 tar -jxf gradint.bgz 然后 gradint/gradint.py. 推荐你也安装 espeak 和 python-tk 包裹。
   • Windows Mobile 手机: 安装 PythonCE, 安装 gradint.cab and run Setup in the gradint folder. (This will also install eSpeak, and some scripts to read the clipboard. It will run faster if you have a RAMdisk.)
   • Nokia/Symbian S60 手机 安装 PyS60 and ScriptShell (those links are for 3rd edition phones; for other editions google it), unpack gradint-S60.zip into the phone's data\python or python folder, open Python and run script gradint.py.
   • Android 手机 安装 SL4A and Python and unpack gradint-android.zip into /sdcard/sl4a/scripts (the UI is quite basic---you'll need to set up the vocab files manually)
   • RISC OS 下载 RISC OS Python and gradint.zip; shift-click to open !gradint or click to run.
   • 或者，使用Gradint网站版本，能用任何浏览器。 You can set up your own server with the Unix version (above) and the server scripts (also includes scripts for email-based service).
2. 告诉软件你要学什么语言。 在大多数系统, Gradint 能显示一个视窗让你做这样。 或者你可以edit the file settings.txt.
3. 给软件词语和短语教。   你可以混合真正录音和机器声音。你可以随时把词语加到你的积攒。 在大多数系统, Gradint 能显示一个视窗让你做这样。 或者你可以:
   • place real recordings in the samples directory and its subdirectories (see the file README.txt in the samples directory)
   • add words that you want synthesized by computer to vocab.txt (see the instructions in vocab.txt)
4. 如果可能, 准备提示声音 比如 "请跟着说", "在说一次"等。 英文和中文的机器声音课文已经提供了, 但如果你不想用机器声音或用别的语言, 请自己提供。 关于提供别的提示声音请看 the file README.txt in the prompts subdirectory of the samples directory. 我也有 sampled English prompts.

如果你的电脑技巧很高, 你也能看 advanced.txt (that link is for reference only; to make changes you will need to open the copy in your gradint installation).

程序员: The source code is gradint.py which can be found within any of the downloads, or you can download the Gradint build environment which contains a Makefile and supporting files for producing the above releases from a Linux box. See its README.txt for details. There is also a SourceForge SVN repository thanks to Cameron Wong.
