• Cantonese Font with Pronunciation

  As many have pointed here Mandarin, Thai, Cantonese and Vietnam are tonal languages and the meaning of words are depending on how you speak the syllables inside the words. Mandarin has four, Thai has five, Cantonese has six and Vitnamese has six tones. Overall about 20% or 1.5 billion of the world's population converse daily in tonal languages. It will be very helpful if someone come up with automatic tonal... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• How can I improve my accent online?

  Https://elsaspeak.com/en/ is an app with focus on pronunciation. Not sure though if it's possible to set the focus on American English, but maybe still worth a try. Source: about 1 year ago

• Ask HN: How to get better at spoken English?

  There are many apps now that can check, validate and rate your language speaking and pronunciations for example ELSA Speak [1].

• Which encodes on Nyaa usually have jp subs?

  Lol np. Not sure if you have access to Netflix, but if you really hate retiming subs or whatever you don't like about it; I've heard Language Learning with Netflix is pretty good for making cards using Netflix. Even if you don't have access to a VPN, a lot of anime on non-Japanese Netflix has JP subs available. As much as I hate him, I think Matt vs Japan has a tutorial about it on his channel.

I always encourage people to start with children's... Source: about 1 year ago

• ChatGPT is going to change education, not destroy it

  My strategy for French is Anki flashcards, Language Transfer course, One-on-one video chats, Chrome Netflix Language Learning web extension, and of course ChatGPT. Source: about 1 year ago

• Intermediate help

  Finally, visual media. Crucial tip, watch what you like! Watch a show that interests you in the TL, with or without subtitles. I recommend with subtitles at first so you can read and catch things you may have missed, but if you're training listening specifically, turn 'em off. These shows can be either native-made and originally in your TL, or dubbed into your TL like with another strategy I like to do, and I do... Source: almost 2 years ago

• Fail of the day

  Don't be discouraged! Speaking and listening are some of the hardest parts of language learning. I work on my listening by doing transcription exercises. I listen to some korean media and pause regularly (every sentence or two) and write it down in Korean. I then look up the transcription and then correct mistakes. I still struggle but my listening has improved a lot this way. If you have a netflix subscription... Source: almost 2 years ago
