I want to try out a new system I came up with:
a ‘trickle’ system, with some kind of interesting, but short text landing in my email box(/or comparable) each day, the words the text uses automatically compared to the list of words I already know, and the disjunction automatically queried from wiktionary and made into one sided flashcards. (reason being: I realized I cared for receptive abilities, but not so much for being able to express my thoughts in a different language. If it was a free action, great, but I feel like it usually is not.) And these words learned BEFORE reading the text. (as to avoid having too many breaks in the flow)
I also listen to some french language podcasts, such as those from the CBC (SRC in French), and sometimes I’ll watch documentaries in other languages, such as NHK documentaries in Japanese.
What non-english content do you consume?
