the english term is saying "granddaughter" not "grandmother", this could be confusing to spanish speakers

when looking up grandmother in spainsih, I happened to click the english voice recorded button and it says granddaughter, just letting you know ......bye

Yikes! This is awful! I have notified Chris so that he can tinker with the pronunciation program. I will let you know if/when we get this fixed.

It was a mistake...no one one the planet is perfect, not even computers. wink Best thing is that you realized it as a mistake, which means your spanish is improving. wink

As Charmar says - "no one is perfect"

but key in both grandmother and then granddaughter and listen carefully to each one. You will hear a "d" in granddaughter but not in grandmother. It is just poor "computer speak"

If you scroll down to the bottom of the page, there's a link at the very bottom labeled "Feedback." That will take you to a form you can fill out for technical bugs.
