  • What opera singers study, and how it can help… (Guest post at Fluentin3Months!)

    Posted on by

    I wrote an article for Benny at Fluentin3Months.com about the opera singer perspective and what it has to offer to the language learning community.  Check it out!

    Dropping Barriers: What opera singers study, and how it can help you learn languages easier

    There’s another guest post in the works, and I’ll post a link here as soon as it’s up!

    Other updates: • Small addition to the Other Languages section - added a wonderful Portuguese frequency list for the first 350 words, with numerous example sentences.

    • Added links to Forvo and Rhinospike as pronunciation resources.

    • Added links to Linguee for English, French, German, Spanish and Portuguese.  It’s a really neat dictionary service that provides tons of example sentences and tells you about a given word’s frequency.  I wish it was available for Russian! (Anyone have any good Russian dictionaries, especially monolingual ones? When a word’s not well described in Wiktionary, I’m kind of out of options)

    • Fixed the email subscription widget - anyone who subscribed prior to today isn’t on the email list; sorry! Please subscribe again - it’s working now.
