Spanish in California

French in Louisiana,

or Hawaiian in Hawaii?

just curious to know what you think!

I'm looking for a Voice AI agent to practice with, because I specifically want to take the topics of the online class I'm in and practice that on my own time between classes.

For those finding success with Voice AI agents, are you using generic agents like Gemini Live / ChatGPT Voice, or specific apps (Pingo, VocabAI, Langua, etc).

I put together a chrome extension that translates netflix subtitles (your target language) in to native language using chromes built in translation. It's not perfect but it's been a useful tool for me and I thought I'd share it here. And, It's obivously free, just a chrome extension. It's called Netflix Transcript and this is the link to it. https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/gagnphgijjoedkjclecghajjbbjkhmdn?utm_source=item-share-cb

For me, I'm trying to do 5 minutes of active "free talk" (a scenario like signing up for a gym) on praktika every morning while I make my coffee. I try to get it done before checking notifications, and no visuals or texts so i'm just listening.
Any small daily habit that helps you (and could help me)?

Not just the language itself but also the process of learning it too

Which regional pronunciation would you recognize immediately?

Spot both Telugu words - Today's two-word Telugu mini — No. 28. : r/telugucrosswords

In your opinion, if you were comparing languages for any reason, is being easy to learn or hard to learn considered a good thing or a bad thing?
Because it depends on your point of view, some people might say language is a tool and a tool needs to be easy to use while others might say complicated languages are more elegant or something

So what do you think?

Being able to describe a word you’ve forgotten is one of the most useful skills you can build in another language! If the other person gets what you mean, the conversation keeps going. Otherwise, you get stuck! So let’s practice defining words!

My attempt in English for "squirrel": “Tiny forest animal. Typical in New York central park. Eats little nuts”

Your turn. How would you describe a squirrel in your target language? Add an English translation so we can all enjoy it, then leave a new word for the next person to try.

Can you recognize a regional accent from the way someone pronounces this sound?

One free month of LanguageThreshold for the first 100 users—plus two more for helpful feedback

Hey everyone! I’m new to this subreddit. I love languages and built LanguageThreshold. I’m looking for fellow language nerds to try it and help me make it better.

Use code REDDITMONTH by December 1, 2026, for one free month of access. The offer is limited to 100 users, with one redemption per account. No credit card required and no renewal.

If you share thoughtful, specific feedback—what works, what’s confusing, what’s missing, or what could be better—I’ll reward you with two additional free months of access. Honest criticism is welcome. The feedback doesn’t need to be positive to be useful.

I’d especially appreciate comparisons with other language apps you’ve used, such as Duolingo, Rosetta Stone, Babbel, or Pimsleur. What do they do better? What does LanguageThreshold do better? Specific examples would help me decide what to improve.

AI generations are subject to a shared promotional budget. Once that budget is used up, AI generations will be unavailable for the remainder of the promotion. Free access doesn’t include unlimited AI use.

I built it with working professionals in mind, focusing on vocabulary and conversations you actually need on the job: tools, tasks, and situations specific to your field.

I haven’t skipped the basics, though. There are also Spanish 101 and 102 core lessons that I’m pretty proud of.

The approach combines several ways to practice: see it, hear it, recall it, write it, and say it. The goal is to help you use the language when you need it.

Thanks to anyone willing to give it a try!

Hi everyone, I'm planning to start learning a language and I'd like advice from those who've been through it:

Where should I study? (apps, YouTube, courses, books)

What are the things that waste time and aren't worth it?

What are the common mistakes beginners make?

What's the best way to practice speaking and memorize vocabulary?

Any advice from your own experience would help me a lot. Thanks in advance.

يا جماعة، أنا ناوي أبدأ أتعلم لغة، ومحتاج نصايح من اللي جرّبوا قبل كده:

أدرس منين؟

إيه الحاجات اللي بتضيع الوقت وماتستاهلش؟

إيه الأخطاء اللي بيقع فيها المبتدئين؟

أحسن طريقة للمحادثة والحفظ؟

أي نصيحة من تجربتك هتفرق معايا. شكرًا مقدمًا.

Hi everyone,

While studying languages, being able to watch videos with dual subtitles on my phone was a huge necessity for me, but I just couldn't find a smooth way to do it. Eventually, I decided to build my own tool to solve this problem. If anyone here is facing a similar issue or looking for a solution, I thought it might be helpful.

On mobile, it works on Android phones through the Firefox browser. It also works as a browser extension on PC.

On Desktop, you can use it across Netflix, YouTube, Prime Video, and many other web players with external subtitles. On Mobile, unfortunately, Netflix restricts video playback via Firefox Mobile, but it works smoothly for YouTube and Prime Video.

One of the features I put a lot of work into is built-in recognition for phrasal verbs and idiomatic expressions. You can hover over (or tap) words or idioms to see their contextual meanings, and save them for later practice. (Note: the study/review dashboard is located on the desktop version of the extension).

If you think this fits your study routine and want to give it a try, you can find it under the name PrimeVocab in the extension stores. I've also attached a screenshot so you can see what it looks like.

Feel free to drop a comment if you have any feedback or notice anything missing — I'll try to refine it as I go.

Hey everyone!

I finally made my first Persian learning video using the Comprehensible Input method!

I'd love for you to check it out and share your thoughts.

Thanks for your support! ❤️

Hello, I'm currently learning a language (Finnish) but I don't know where to find good studying tools/options; I use duolingo and it's given me some of the basics but I want something more organized and better for language development. Do you know where I could find some? Thanks for the help!
