an easy way is for the other-languaged person to speak into the app on your smart phone and then the smart phone verbally speaks the translation in your language.. We used this throughout Europe and it worked a great. Would be interesting if the HA app on the phone, which is blue tooth connected to the ha's, could interpret languages. Maybe do the settings on the phone to emphasize the lows more, and then use the normal app for interpretation. Low frequencies are typically used more on the phone systems, hence, elevating those frequencies a bit. Gina

Would you possibly be able to speak virtually about this at my Hearing Loss Chapter meeting Saturday May 1st?

The translation application does help if they do not speak English. My problem is with friends that are from English speaking countries who have a strong ascent. Their English is as good as mine, but difficult to understand. Whit some it would be difficult Eve. If I had hearing in both ears. I set with a group after golf and i am lucky to pick up 20% of conversations. Most are understanding, which helps.

@Gina. This is so interesting. I had no idea all the things I've been missing. Thanks! Nancy
