I play scrabble with my kids and so I learn the 10-years-oldish


Wordfeud and Word Crack are similar to Scrabble. When do we play a Germany vs. Mexico Scrabble game?

Sometimes... Dec 11, 2016

Ok, I will admit, but please do not spread it around...
Games? Yes, sometimes because they keep you awake and concentrated, but language games? No, I use to play console games like Elevator Action, Intrepid, Lode Runner or stuff like that (I use the MAME platform), but I can only advice to play them sparringly...Because you may get addicted!
Not a language game, but one to improve my typing skills is "Typer Shark Deluxe" from Popcap games, amusing and you really learn to type faster.... See more

Kanji Kentei Dec 12, 2016

I like to use this app when I am waiting somewhere or before I go to sleep at night.

It is a Japanese Kanji app.

multilingual children Dec 13, 2016

Why is everyone referring to scrabble as a "language game"?
Scrabble is a word game


I refer to it as such because we are multilingual and so are the kids. And we resign on the "right rules" to practice other languages.
