Learn Chinese Mandarin with Cecilia Chen

Nauruan Language

The Taiwanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has held a two-day event promoting the Asia-Pacific culture in the capital city of Taiwan, Taipei City, on September 28-29th. The participants come from the Solomon Islands, the Philippines, the Marshall Islands, Vietnam, Tuvalu, Thailand, Singapore, South Korea, New Zealand, Palau, Nauru, Malaysia, Kiribati, Japan, Indonesia, India, Fiji, and Brunei. Apart from performing dances from each of the countries, the participants also displayed a wide variety of handicrafts and artworks as well as authentic cuisine on each country's booth.

9 Multilingual News Websites For Reading Practice

Learners learn languages in many different ways, such as attending language classes, playing games, or listening to audio. Whatever the methods are, they usually cover four aspects of language learning: reading, listening, speaking, and writing. Mastering only one or two of these is not enough because, in reality, we read, listen, speak, and write.

The Great Language Game

I came across The Great Language Game from a social media from a polyglot that I follow. It is a language game. Players are shown with an audio recording and choices of language for the players to choose. According to the About page, these audio recordings are snippets of news from SBS Australia .

Blogging in Foreign Language

I used to wonder why many of my friends write blogs in foreign languages. English was my choice of content language when I wrote a blog in high school. I did that because I am interested in writing in a foreign language. Several advantages that I can achieve by composing writings in this way are improving the habit to exercise writing skill, and having the chance to put my English in practice. English has been widely used in education, society, and almost anywhere. Several people have even created their own English styles because of the influence of their local languages.

Language Discussion with Lingspark

One of my amazing polyglot friends, Sal from Sweden, invited me to have a discussion to talk about how we take control of our language learning. During the 30-minute discussion, we covered various issues, from using apps to living overseas. Besides, we also shared our learning Mandarin experience since both of us are not native Mandarin speakers. Sal lived in Taiwan for some time, while I remain in Taiwan since 2008.

6 Local Writing Systems in Indonesia

Indonesia is a vast country in Southeast Asia that anyone can recognize easily on the map because it borders the sea, thus its country border is also the sea border.

Despite having numerous writing systems, the government recognizes the Latin alphabet as the official writing system, which was introduced during the colonization by the Europeans.

What do you think about the title? Do you agree that being bilingual is a good thing? There are many countries in this world, which have only one language; however, there are many more countries that have more than 1 language being spoken every day! Scroll down to read the answers.

Tuvaluan Language

Talofa Tuvalu! The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s chartered jet landed on this Polynesian island last year on the final leg of their tour to the Far East . Tuvalu ranks as the fourth smallest country in the world , following Vatican City, Monaco, and Nauru as the top 3 in the list, respectively. Formerly known as the Ellice Islands , Tuvalu separated from the Gilbert Islands in 1975 and gained independence from Great Britain in 1978. The capital city is Funafuti.

4 Interesting Conlangs

You may have read that there are more than 7,000 languages around the world, and many are endangered, so why bother creating languages? I am not a big fan of constructed language (conlang) but I have encountered several conlangs that I find interesting.
