IngoLingo.com - Learning a Language 15 Words at a Time

IngoLingo is a language learning site focused on vocabulary building. If you do of their lessons a day, you will learn 15 words a day, which turns into 3,000 words within three months.

Their goal is for you to be able to read a newspaper in another language by the end of it, since a newspaper contains 3,000 words. Their method of teaching the vocab is repetition. At the beginning of each lesson you see the list of 15 words in association with a picture and with their translation into your mother tongue under each one. After viewing the list, you are asked to type in the translation of the word in the language you are learning to your native language. If you are unsure of the word, you can ask to see the picture associated with it, and if that’s not enough, you can view a list of five possibilities for you to choose from in multiple choice form. In order to complete the lesson, you have to enter the correct translation in for each word three times in a row. The site keeps track of how many words you’ve learned so far and notices which ones you have problems with so as to determine which words you learn in the future. 15 words a day is an easy task to commit to, and the accomplishment of knowing 3,000 words in another language by the end of it is definitely worth the little time that it takes.
