the poster for the movie I'm Your Man

I recently watched I'm Your Man. I like watching foreign language films with the original voices and the subtitles on; I am not fluent enough to understand most movie dialog, but I know enough German to pick out a decent fraction of the words, and I enjoy feeling that current of recognition as the movie plays.

A Spanish crossword puzzle from Linguno

Linguno has been my favorite language learning website for a while now.

For the longest time, I really only paid attention to the excellent verb practice exercises.

Recently, though, I ran out of other online games to play and tried one of the Linguno crosswords. I don't think I had realized that they offer lots of monolingual crosswords - with the clues in the language you're practicing - but I was immediately delighted. I am repeatedly amazed at how well those relatively simple phrases in the practice language reinforce and expand my understanding.
