Learning languages from real podcasts

TinyLingo helps you improve by listening to authentic native-speaker podcasts with word-level synced transcripts and instant translations. "Tinylingo makes learning Chinese so much more effective. The ability to have instant translations saves me so much time because I do not have to pause constantly to look words up in a dictionary. Being able to both read and hear the words strengthens both my listening and reading comprehension at the same time!" "Living in Utah, I sometimes struggle to find native speakers to practice Arabic with.

The service that I have been working on allows you to practice with a language tutor via online chat messages, or you can have a turn-based voice conversation. I'm working on a number of other features that will be coming out…

    Hi HN, I’m Pablo, I built this application to learn languages using podcasts: https://www.langturbo.com (No signup required) There are a lot of tools to learn languages, but most of them focus on beginners (understandably so, that’s where the money is) but not many exist that target intermediate or advanced learners.

  • With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
