Lingorilla.com - Video Community For Learning Languages

Self-dubbed as “the first global video community for learning languages”, Lingorilla stands as a useful resource that takes full advantage of the latest technological developments that the Internet has brought along.

The approach of the site is very commendable, because (as any linguist can tell you) the one and true manner of picking up a language is actually living in the country where it is spoken.



To a certain extent, what Lingorilla does is to bring the country to you by providing a live sampler of how is the language spoken. And it is not only a matter of pronunciation – facial gestures and expressions are also an intrinsic part of any language, and through Lingorilla you will have access to that.

Further resources include quizzes for testing your progress, and learning documents that can be consulted whenever you wish. Flashcards for expanding your vocabulary are likewise featured.

The site also has a social network flavor to it since you can make friends from all over the globe, and join in the existing language groups. It is also possible for you to create a group of your own.
