KLettres is an application specially designed to do help the user to learn alphabet in a new language and then to learn to read simple syllables. The user can be a young child aged from two and a half or an adult that wants to learn the basics of a foreign language.

Eleven languages are available at the moment: Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, French, Italian, Luganda, Romanized Hindi, Spanish, Slovak and German but only English, French and your language if it is among those are installed by default.

KLettres is really easy to use. The language can be changed using the Language menu. The user can also choose the Level from 1 to 4 in a combo box in the toolbar or via the Level menu. Themes (background and font color) can be changed in a combo box or in the Look->Themes menu. Three themes are available: Classroom, Arctic and Desert. Finally, the mode can be changed from kid to grown-up using the Look->Mode menu.
