Can you add one Russian book with translations into Spanish? I wanna give it a try. Maybe a couple of chapters would work. This book is my favourite since I was a kid: "magician in town yuri tomin" (Russian: "шёл по городу волшебник юрий томин").

#112I tried that app and it looks good. It was a bit hard for me to decide what book to choose. Question: do users later get quizzed on the words they looked up?

#114Shout out for an app called Language Transfer that I just came across via Reddit ( https://www.languagetransfer.org/ ). It teaches languages speaking first through a simple audio course. Developed by one guy, completely free and without ads. From what I’ve seen so far has a very clear focus on quickly getting up to speed with a different angle than other courses.

Also found this app on forums and I wonder why it's not popular. It's amazing, simple and effective. And absolutely free

Looks interesting and I'm going to try it out.
Curious about what differentiates it from something like pimsleur courses, other than price of course.

#119This "new" idea I implemented for myself 15 years ago.
An idea generally becomes new to the world when it is published. If you claim that you privately had the idea 15 years ago, it's possible; you just need credible, and credibly dated evidence.
I used it to teach myself Japanese. I would replace words in an English text with the Japanese translations, including kanji, furigana and English. I was working on a way to develop a curriculum of vocabulary. I prepared a couple of books this way and read them, then abandoned the approach. But it was pretty fun.
