It also has massive appeal for multi-cultural communities where a melting pot of languages is the norm,” she added.

Langu.ag includes a range of features to boost language skills, with instant access to over 50 world languages, a unique translation tool that can be used by scanning, speaking or typing any word, and in-built interactive games to build language skills on the go.
