I'm Neil and joining me today is Jen. Hi, Neil. Now, this sounds like every struggling language student's dream. A piece of technology which could put an end to hours and hours of study. It sounds like something from science fiction小说. A machine which allows you to speak any language in the world instantly立即. OK, well, not quite, but we are talking about an app, a piece of software common on smartphones developed in Japan. This app allows you to have conversations with another person speaking in a different language translated in real time.
In other words, instantly立即. This could put us out of a job, Neil. Now, come on, it must be time for a language-related quiz. Yes, that's exactly what we will do now. I want to know how many languages there are in the world. Is it A, about a hundred, B, about a thousand, or C, about six thousand?
