All the cool kids in Asia are learning English and the youth of Japan are no different. In addition to English language learning in school, a wide range of gadgets, dictionaries, and tutorials are available for students to teach themselves at their own pace. IE Institute is a well known purveyor of language learning products in Japan and their latest software release on the NDS teaches students a total of 1900 English words. In addition to the correct spelling shown on the NDS screen, the proper pronunciation is also sounded out to make sure broken English isn't on the menu. The 1900 words are split up into 800 basic words, 700 important words, and 400 difficult words. Language testing is administered through simple quizzes or by way of mini-games.
