Aside from WorkAudioBook I consider this the greatest language learning tool to exist.
I watch Breaking Bad dubbed in Spanish, subs don't match, and paused to try to guess what they were saying every sentence and did tons of look ups. This took 600 hours. Yes about ten hours per episode. By the end I was ready to find a 100% MONOLINGUAL teacher and communicate with her through the whole of every class (incredible feeling btw) to learn things formally. Learning becomes incredibly exciting and productive when you're ready to go full monolingual with it.
((Was I a false beginner? No. I wasn't primed in school, I had about 1 month Spanish in 9th grade before being forcibly expelled from the class with an F. I was definitely racist against the language age 13-17. I found the teacher playing and making us sing Macarena especially distasteful and that was part of what made me hateful.))
- hackernewds 3y agoyou could literally speak to a human speaker over video chat? there are very affordable services like this
- silverpepsi 3y agoI'm confused, what does video chat have to do with anything? this all took place in Colombia
