Throughout my life I've had a fascination with other languages, and a desire to speak them with others. Just as music is universal, so is communication.
The most important thing we can do for the future is simply to not waste the present.
So often, the best advice is also the most frustrating. Sometimes the you can't learn something new unless you first un-learn something you already know.
When you look at the language learning market, most products look the same. Companies are motivated by money, not innovation.
It is my firm belief that one of the main reasons why so many people do not learn foreign languages, is that they simply do not know how to do it.
Instead of a long post today about things I do when I learn, today I'm going to change it up a bit and ask for input from my readers.
Today, I'll look at some of the ways that Greek words can be found in the roots of English words.
When I started learning Greek this year, one of the biggest challenges I had to overcome was dealing with false friends.
If you asked me to choose the one language-learning activity that I think provides the greatest increase in knowledge and ability, I would always say the same thing: learning to read.
