    Being a retired teacher of castellano in the states, I am not yet able to accept more technology which removes the personal interaction between two people attempting to communicate with each other. Guess you may be unemployed in the near future if this gadget super takes off. The true learning of a World Language is rapidly becoming a dying art. I recently returned from a 2 week stay in Spain with the sole purpose of speaking Spanish. I spent 46 years teaching the language, but I am not Hispanic. With all this new technology, looks like I retired at the right time. I believe your friend did not have to rely on the translations which he heard during your conversations since has spent some time living in Spain. De Elaine la profe recien jubilada de NJ

    Not your fault, but I ordered my Timekettle earbuds and so looked forward to their arrival. When they arrived, looking very cool in their packaging, sadly one of the earbuds would not charge. Believe me, I tried everything to solve the issue but, alas it was not meant to be. I confess I was disappointed as I had looked forward to obtaining a little bit of assistance in understanding the natives. Oh well, such is life, así es la vida. I now have to consider if I reorder or accept that a greater power is trying to tell me something like "save your money, study more, listen to more Spanish speakers, there are no shortcuts" The world still needs Spanish teachers, let's face it, for us adult learners the Spanish teacher is more than an educator, I consider mine a friend. In fact, mine is an online teacher and we meet face-to-face this weekend for the first time, hence my timely purchase of the Timekettle😉 😂 There is a lesson here. 🤣

      I am one of the users of Timekettle WT2 Edge, and I must say it is a fantastic piece of technology that you wished invented earlier, and it helps in many scenarios. It has multiple modes of operation. As you mentioned, the hygiene part of it is not an issue as it supports speaker mode. That means the owner of WT2 wears the earpiece, and your dialogue partner speaks via your mobile mic. The WT2 is my EDC nowadays. Very handy. It also supports offline mode when you don't have data connections.

  • @kevtheargonut

    Very clever indeed, really interesting technology - many thanks for the introduction. Could be very useful for non-Spanish speaker at the odd visit to public buildings, for example, hospitals or maybe where documents in Spanish need to be understood whilst dialog is in progress - like in house buying or visa process with legal bods but maybe not actually at the ayuntamiento itself. Somewhere where simple answers to questions would suffice, sort of point to where it hurts and “sI, no” to questions in Spanish afterwards with the translation.
    Trouble is in dual mode, how do you keep them sterile when shared between multiple people with whom you may need to interact? Are they also gonna get into the market for ear infection pills and really make some money? 😁
    I think they would be useful in dual mode, for example as the wife and I try to improve our Spanish. One speaking in English and the other hearing in Spanish pretty much all the time would really help get immersed in the language in my opinion without the need for a Spanish speaker on hand. I’d also be interested to see them perform when Spanish is spoken with words all slurred together at the normal Mach 2 rate. But overall, yes I can see a use for them in my life. Thanks again for bringing them to my attention.

      @@anonymouse1309 Hello friend, our translator earbuds also need to download the app on the mobile phone, and we do recommend you use it with the internet as the online version works better in terms of accuracy and speed. We also have an offline version that supports 8 languages, download it in advance and use it on urgent occasions without the internet.
      Our translation earbuds are compact and portable, it is much more comfortable to wear for a long time. I think you can see the difference from Waverly Labs.
      Besides, as for the user experience, WT2 Edge is the first translation device that achieved Bi-direction Simultaneous Translation, you can speak non-stop and translation will be played in another person's ear. It allows two parties to listen and speak at the same time.

      Although many other products claim real-time translation, they actually need to tap the device and wait for your party to finish. While with WT2 Edge, you don't need any operation at all, you just speak and listen. That's how people usually communicate.
      I hope this may help. Thank you.❤

      Dear clever sir thank you for this wonderful presentation. I really apreciate the usefulness of these clever ear buds especially when one goes to China or Japan and is very difficult to understand, these will be a real blessing. I prefer the "natural" way of using them, listening, talking like you do normally when talking without worrying about anything rather than reading on the phone what the person said, because it is very small and difficult to see so listening and hearing and talking is simply the best. Very kind of you to answer questions and reassure people is another good thing is very important. So thanks again and God bless🙂.
