New website for language learners

Language learners can go to www.example-sentence.com and listen to example sentences in English, German, French, or Spanish. All example sentences are recorded by native speakers so you can learn the correct pronunciation. This is a good way to learn new words in context and extend your vocabulary. The German version of this website is available under www.beispielsatz.de – yes, “beispielsatz” is German for “example sentence”.

There is also a linklist to other good resources for language learners. I hope the list will grow quickly over the next weeks and months. If you have something to contribute, please add your website to the list.

BTW, the words and sentences are taken from the online vocabulary learning tool Comprehencia. There you can extend your vocabulary with a system that goes beyond the standard Leitner or flash card system. The sentences on www.example-sentence.com and www.beispielsatz.de are part of the Challenge datasets in Comprehencia. The Challenge data sets on Comprehencia are divided into different levels and the learner has to unlock each stage with a vocabulary test.
