Hebrew-Ivrit Update February 2009

By Chelle | February 28, 2009

Well, just a quick update. I still mostly study LearnHebrewPod.com. I have been slacking a bit lately, because I’m working on my other website a lot and I have new jobs that I am studying for (their guidelines and rules).

But I can say some phrases in Hebrew:
Ani Lomeded Ivrit (I study Hebrew)
Ani Ohevet Glida (I love Ice Cream)

Okay, so it’s not great, but it’s a start. That Hebrew spelling is transliteration, not the real Hebrew alphabet (which I did learn a couple months ago).

I haven’t been studying with Transparent Language lately, but I plan to start with that again soon.

Well, that’s all for now, until next month…

Hebrew-Ivrit Update January 2009

By Chelle | January 26, 2009

Well, I have been studying Hebrew pretty much every day still.

But now I study mostly from the LearnHebrewPod.com podcasts and less from the Transparent Language Hebrew computer CD Roms.

I find that I like to listen to English/Hebrew conversations more and learn that way. Plus, LearnHebrewPod.com has transcripts of all of their conversations, so I can read and listen to everything.

Some language podcasts only have the audio and no print materials to go with it, so I really love that LearnHebrewPod.com has the printed materials and transcripts of all of their podcasts.

I still will study with Transparent Language, I just plan to use
LearnHebrewPod.com more often. I’d also like to buy the Rosetta Stone program in Hebrew and study with that too. As well and Pimsleur Hebrew CD, because I hear that’s a really great language course.

I think one of the most important things to learning a language and becoming as fluent as possible, is studying the language various ways and with various resources. But I guess that’s true with learning most anything.

So anyway, that’s my Hebrew update for January. I plan to do these monthly. So my February Hebrew update will be sometime late next month!

I’ve Started Learning Spanish Again

By Chelle | August 28, 2008

There are so many ways to learn different languages. One good way is watching DVDs of my favorite movies and choosing Spanish or French as the audio and/or subtitles.

Yesterday I watched part of Transformers and set the subtitles to Spanish and just read from there as I listened to the movie. And I learned a few words just from that. So, I’m going to keep that up and also learn from language software like Transparent Language: Learn NOW! 

I’ve started Spanish already, but I’ll be starting French soon as well.
