Do you have any Apple devices? If so, you can now read along while listening—most podcasts offer transcripts! The feature is available in 11 languages. It started with EN, FR, DE, and ES, and I’m really happy they’ve added more like🇮🇹,🇳🇴, and 🇧🇷. I absolutely love it!

I’ve been doing dictation exercises in #Greek. Spelling can be tricky since there are multiple ways to write certain sounds. I’ve got a good grasp of when to use σ vs. ς, and while ο vs. ω can sometimes be confusing, the biggest challenge is distinguishing between ι, υ, η, οι, and ει. 🇬🇷 #langsky

I started tracking my time spent on language learning this year. Here's how January turned out.

This year, I told myself to focus only on Greek while maintaining languages I’ve studied in the past, like Italian and German. But... oops! I ended up starting Croatian too. The eBook was less than $5 and came with free audio—I just couldn’t resist. 🇭🇷

SBS Radio broadcasts in many languages. Some of them, like the Greek program, even offer transcripts to follow along. Here are the four I've been listening to lately.

One of the first books I read in Italian after reaching an intermediate level, and I highly recommend it. Each chapter is a standalone story, only 2-5 pages long, making it easy to follow and not overwhelming. 🇮🇹

A few souvenirs I brought back from Sicily. I’m determined to keep immersing myself in Italian because I love the feeling of connecting with locals in their own language. Even as a visitor, being able to understand and engage with them adds so much to the experience. 📚✨🇮🇹

Picked up the cutest, little book at a local second-hand bookstore a few months ago. 🇩🇪🧸🍯📚

My nugget is enjoying it as well. 🐶

Do your pets enjoy story time? 📖

With each page, I encounter fewer unfamiliar words. Learning a language through stories is my favorite method.🤓✨🇮🇹📚
