Easy ways of learning languages part three - games

Hey guys, what's up?

I want to start by saying I don't have much time to post. I've been studying for the university's exam. It's been though. I thought about declaring a hiatus but I would really miss writing. So here I am.

Regarding this lack of time, some of you may think "so how does he learn a language if he's busy all the time?" Well, it hasn't been easy but it's something I can't live without. So I developed some ways to have fun while learning. How? Playing games...

If you have a smartphone (I suppose it is really common nowadays), perhaps you like to play games to have some fun. And it is incredibly helpful to use them to pick up some words and get used to the language...

Hey, wait up, are you saying that I can play games and learn with it? OK, it's understandable, but what sort of games?
Yes, that's exactly what I mean, my dearest reader. And the sort, well you can play the ones you want. The majority of games are widely translated now, you probably will be able to play them in the language you're learning. I will end up by letting you know some of my favorites.

When I'm in vacations and have a larger amount of time, I enjoy playing "Plants vs. Zombies" and "Minion Rush" they are translated to lots of languages.

But I'm in not in vacations and time's been short, so I highly recommend those:

Trivia Crack - a game of quizzes. You can defy your friends or random people online. It's got a cool playability!

Word Search - I recommend this one too, I can't remember the name of its developers but the one I downloaded has got a wide translation.

So that's it. If you know some other, tell me in the comments!
I'll see you!

The Perks of Speaking more Than a Language

This week, I would write about the second part of last post (about little tips for learning a language easily).

But it hit me today that I do need to write about the perks of learning a language. I decided to write about it because many people who don't learn languages don't understand how it feels to be able to do some things like the ones I will write here...


1. Meeting more people and learning more about their countries by their own source.
  It's undeniable. We are social as humans. And for those who like to explore and learn about other stuff, different than ours... That does make us happier, and change us by people.

2. It helps us to discover much about our own personalities.
    There are some resources that state we have got variations on our personalities while speaking a language. For me, personally, it fits perfectly. I never felt the urge to describe, but I feel the differences, as an example, when I speak Italian, it feels so different, it sounds really expressive for me, therefore, I am really expressive when I chat in this language...

3. We have got a wide bigger source of information online.
    Due to the diffusion of the internet, it became really easy to find information, although, there are some things that have not been translated so far. For example, I can learn for free a new language which I would have to pay for material in my native language online. Expanding not only our horizons, but making new opportunities to reality.

4. We become more social.
      I don't know whether that is common sense, but for me it works. I mean, I can't deny that since the first day I started to learn my second language until now, I changed and became a lot more sociable... (Hey, wait up, I was not anti-social before lol). But when we learn a language, we have got to expose ourselves to the language by chatting and having any forms of contact whatsoever. It does make us develop many other social skills...

5. It is just awesome!!
     To conclude this post, there is nothing more to say but that languages are awesome and, of course, our self-esteem improves to a higher level. We feel capable of doing anything, we feel like the world is ours...

THAT, my friend, is priceless!

I will see you next week!
