About Zulu Phrases language tutor
Zulu Phrases is a simple yet useful and completely free Android app that plays about forty frequently used Zulu (or isiZulu) conversational phrases with their English translations on your Android phone. If you master these phrases, you should be able to delight and “click” with Zulu speakers. The app cycles (random/sequentially) through the various phrases, and you can lengthen the pauses between sentences in case you want to practice them out loud or need more time. You can switch off the English translations so that you can just listen to the Zulu phrases playing back, if you are commuting or waiting to see the bank manager! Also has options for repeat/single play; long/short pauses and random/sequential play.
This app was built in the interest of getting South Africans to talk to each other but can be used by anyone interested in learning some basic Zulu phrases. Compact. Easy-to-use. This app was developed by the University of Cape Town’s Samsung Mobile Innovation Lab as a collaboration between Tessa Dowling, African Languages and Jean-Paul Van Belle from the Information Systems Department. Also available in four other South African languages. ZuluPhrases2 has more fun phrases for you to master to with just a tap of your cell! Also available in four other South African languages. Find all our apps on: https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Information+Systems+Dept+-+University+of+Cape+Town .
Specs: Small download using minimal bandwidth and memory. Should work on all Android versions but tested from 2.2 upwards. Aimed primarily at mobile (cell) phones but works on tablets too.

It's very good. You can listen to it while you are doing something else like washing dishes etc. But it needs more phrases? Perhaps an update with some more useful phrases?
