Imagine the situation.You are an exchange student from China and now you are learning French in a university in Paris,the capital city of France.One day,you come into the kitchen of your flat.Twenty minute later,you cook several delicious French dishes.To everyone's surprise,you learn the French language at the same time!This kind of wonderful kitchen is called a French Digital Kitchen or a"talking kitchen".

What do you think of the"talking kitchen"?A French Digital Kitchen has been developed at Newcatle University in the UK.It teaches students how to cook French food and speak French at the same time.For the first time,students can learn the language by following cooking steps.

All grammar and vocabulary have been carefully chosen to make sure the users can understand French well.After learning for some time,the users can test themselves by doing a short test on the computer.

The kitchen project was started by Professor Paul Seedhouse.He began to show interest in the idea after he visited another kind of talking kitchen.He said,"The purpose of the French DigItal Kitchen is to make learning a language more interesting and more educational."

How does the kitchen work?There is a computer in the kitchen.With this computer,the users can first choose a French recipethat they want to follow.Using information in the computer,the kitchen starts to guide the users how to make a French dish.If you follow the instruction on the computer,it moves on to the next.If you go wrong,the program goes back and repeats the recipe or information.At any time,the users can ask the kitchen to repeat the recipe or any information.

The new kitchen can be used in schools,universities and even people's homes.The researcher can also be developing the European Digital Kitchen,for the next three years.
