The VocaSpace vocabulary

The basic structure of Proloquo2Go is made to utilize the best of both worlds: word-based construction and powerful phrases. So whether you are chatting with a friend, answering a question, or constructing a story, the interface is designed to be easy and effective for a broad range of individuals.
The VocaSpace vocabulary set includes a number of primary features:
- A core vocabulary system call Word Spaces
- A Basics section with categories like: greetings, manners, questions, thoughts, about me, etc.
- Extensive Categories such as living creatures, colors, places people, transportation, etc.
- My Spaces where you can put a range of personal vocabulary such as My People, My Places, My Family, My Friends, etc.
- An alternative keyboard that is larger than the default iPhone and iPod touch keyboard that works within the grid/list views.
- Starters are a way to quickly branch using phrases and words
- Spaces is a place to launch out into context specific categories. The primary Spaces are Home, Community, School and Work. Inside each Space is a section for activities, chat phrases and whatever else you would like to include.
