Chapeau ! Proper nouns are also a good entry into newspapers; once you've read the stories reported in your L1 the parallels are easier to spot in the L2. When coding, I play pop music in languages I don't actually speak, so if you ever have recommendations (Mandarin or Cantonese, for me they're 一模一样) please send them my way. In the old days, HK cops came in pairs, and at least one always spoke english and the other cantonese, and this was labelled somehow on their uniform. A blonde friend used to amuse herself by approaching the Cantonese partner, during which time they'd usually frantically gesticulate towards the other, and then ask some innocent question — in slangy cantonese.

Actually I am wanting to learn something about Chinese music but I have yet to really get started. What I like the best now are some flute recordings done in 5.1. My favorite foreign language album right now is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mwng https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mwng I never get tired of listening to it. I do find though that the cognitive load of handling languages I half-understand is pretty high which is not a problem for Welsh but more a problem for Japanese or German and actually was really bad when I was watching an anime subtitled in German.
