Écouter la radio en conduissant...

Aujourd’hui, comme tous les mardis, j’écoute Radio France International en route pour le travail.

Pour ce faire, j’utilise l’application TuneIn Radio.

Parfois, je change de station, c’est incroyable d’aller travailler à Barcelone et d’écouter en même temps la FM de Paris!

EUROCOMROM- The Seven Sieves: How to Read All the Romance Languages Right Away

Image
The EuroCom   method was created to encourage multilingualism in Europe. It was presented by Til Stegmann from the University of Frankfurt. This method teaches you to take advantage of your knowledge of one Romance language in order to read the other Romance languages. All over the book there are exercises for reading articles, ads, different texts written in different Romance languages. The method explains how to read 5 Romance languages simultaneously. The version I have uses Catalan as a sort of bridge language to learn how to read Portuguese, Spanish, French, Italian and Romanian. There are other versions of the book that use another Romance language as a bridge language: Eurocomrom - Els set sedassos (CAT) Eurocomrom - Les sept tamis (FRA) Eurocomrom - As sete peneiras (POR) ... This method takes a text written in a Romance language and applies seven filters ( sieves ) to it in order to 'decipher' the meaning. The 'sieves' or filters are: Fir

"Polyglot - How I Learn Languages" by Kató Lomb

Kató Lomb (1909-2002) was a Hungarian translator and a simultaneous interpreter. She has had a great influence  on how others learn languages. She herself spoke 10 languages and was able to "translate technical documents and enjoy fiction in 6 more, and understand written journalism in 11 more or so". I've found her book "Polyglot - How I Learn Languages" very interesting, I like her point about how useful is to know a language even at a low level: "We should learn languages because language is the only thing worth knowing even poorly ", because "well-intentioned sentences full of mistakes can still build bridges between people. Asking in broken Italian which train we are supposed to board at the Venice railway station is far from useless". About her METHOD , some main points are: devote 60-90 minutes a day time spent in language learning is lost unless it reaches a certain -daily and weekly- concentration "one sh

Trying to strengthen my speaking skills...

Image
I've been studying German with " Assimil German " (B2) and now I want to continue with " Assimil Perfectionnement Allemand " (C1). The second one is in French, my French is more advanced than my German and I think using the French version of the book is an "extra bonus" to improve two languages at the same time. Even though, before beginning with " Assimil Perfectionnement Allemand " I want to improve my fluency in German. I've put aside my loved Assimil for a while, first I want to be focused only in the speaking part of the German language. For this goal I've selected " Language Hacking German ", the vocabulary and expressions in this book are beginner-oriented but it gives you smart strategies to improve your fluency. The book comes with audio resources you can use downloading the editor's  app ( Teach Yourself ). After " Language Hacking German " I will carry on with my loved Assimil. F
