iPhone users now able to translate 6 languages into text and audio with ROK Lingo
London, Thursday 22nd July, 2010: ROK Entertainment Group, the mobile technologies, applications and services company, has today announced the successful deployment of the ROK Lingo iPhone application onto the iTunes Applications Store.
“ROK Lingo is a simple-to-use and very useful iPhone application that translates text into several languages in both text form and audibly in real-time, near-human speech.” Said Jonathan Kendrick, Chairman of ROK. “ROK Lingo has been specifically designed to appeal to the frequent traveler and those learning a second language and we are already delighted with the immediate and rapid uptake of the application and the very positive reaction it has already generated amongst early adopters.”
ROK Lingo, currently priced at a reduced rate of $0.99c or £0.59p, offers English, French, Spanish, German, Turkish and Catalan translations with a further 10 more languages to be added shortly.
“An additional use of ROK Lingo is that English is one of the languages that you can translate into. This means that should you find a street sign whilst abroad, for example, or instructions, or information in one of the supported languages you can type it into your iPhone and have it translated into English.” Added Kendrick.
