    Discovering the World through Languages

    LANGVENTURE:
    LANGUAGE TRIP AROUND THE WORLD

  • Alina & Languages

    Different languages, different sounds and letters.
    Do you know this feeling when somebody is talking in the language you don't know or you're trying to read it,
    and you feel like you are deaf or blind?
    But put some time into learning concepts and words,
    and it is as if you've got another pair of eyes and ears!
    It is like slipping into a new, before secret, world.
    And this feeling is magical and sensational!

    I am Alina -- passionate Langventurist.
    My native language is Russian . If you are even a little curious about other countries and people, follow me in these 26 world-opening "trips" into languages!

    WHY THE WORLD TRIP?

    While traveling, I always explore the language of the country I'm visiting. And I've noticed that language doesn't only give us power to express ourselves, communicate with others, but it MAKES us, defines our mentality, world views, ways of thinking and living.

    So I decided this year to take on a new adventure --
    a virtual language trip to different countries around
    the world, 2 weeks in each, so that I can have a peek into another worlds and learn about countries and people
    through the languages they speak
    .

     

    It is the first LANGVENTURE ever known to humanity!

    Only 2 weeks

    for
    each language?

    Langventure is not about learning a whole language in just 2 weeks. This is not the purpose of the project.
    My goal is to sneak a peek at the way each language works. What letters are there? What is different about the language's logic? Why? What are the challenges when learning it? And to learn some words or couple of phrases, just for fun.
    While getting a little closer to the culture and people.

    Help?

    Yes,
    please!

    As in any journey, this one is also more fun
    if shared with others. Languages don't come easy to me, so it is going to be a tough challenge.
    I do believe my passion and your support will keep me going.
    I welcome any help, comments, hints on
    the free resources where I can find more information about languages!
    Likes and shares
    also help big time!

    Virtual trip

    with real significance!

    This journey has nothing to do with polyglotism.
    It is dedicated to those who are curious about languages and want to broad their knowledge, understand the peculiarities of different languages without needing to actually learn them. It is also devoted to those who want to learn a language but wish to get a general idea about it first, like an overview of what there is to come. That's the real value of Langventure, the world's 1st ever taken!

    Geeky and newsy :)
