German Resource Pool

In trying to collect resources in an organized way, I've created this Notion page, listing all resources I know of and updating whenever I see something new!

It includes Grammar, Reading, Listening, Watching; and links to other people's resource pools (like salvadorbonapart and europeanlanguages)!

I'll of course add to it as much as I can and I am happy about any additions from you guys!

This is good! I'm happy that this exists

A beginner-level resource I just learned about is LOTE4Kids: online bilingual picture books. My library sent out an email about it recently. If your library is a member you can search for their name or enter the LOTE4Kids site through your library's site. Simplified Chinese has four levels: 1 (40-90 words), 2 (90-220 words), 3 (220-540 words), and 4+ (540-1200+ words). There's currently 80 available languages. There's no ads on the web version but I don't know about the app. There's more than 100 books in Mandarin. You can take a quiz at the end of the book if you like. You can listen in your target language, or English, or both. I found the English voice actor really annoying but that's a small price to pay, I think.

This is great!

Theres moreeee, this is so so good.. it makes me emotional realizing that these kids are on the path to being fluent cherokee speakers and will be able to keep the language going.

This family is a part of the little cherokee seeds program, creating new first language Cherokee speakers by paying mothers to just bring their babies and craft and cook and speak cherokee with cherokee elders all day. There are only 1500 first language Cherokee speakers, most of them over 65. They also take donations if you want to help keep them going and doing the extremely important work they do!!

Hey everyone, are there any websites or books related to learning Tagalog grammar? Just let me know in the comments or in DMs. I'm asking you guys this because I don't usually speak my mother tongue a lot and I feel ashamed of it.

French (teaching) resources

Hi everyone! I've taught beginning and intermediate french at the college level for the past two years and have accumulated a lot of PDFs that may be helpful + made some reading/listening activities that I wanted to share.

if you self-study, this may be helpful as well, especially when it comes to grammar practice.

Here is the link to the google drive folder

I am happy to answer questions as I am able.

Some notes:

grammar:

largely from: Grammaire progressive du français, (niveau avancé) | Contrastes : Grammaire du Français Courant | some (rather old) McGraw Hill French 2 and 3 texts | and various places online

SOME of these have answers. some do not. unfortunately, I don't have access to Contrastes right now to scan the answers. When I do, I'll try to upload them.

Sorted generally by what they are (adv/adj, articles, pronouns etc) however, the file names are NOT the clearest. i'll try to go through and fix those when I have time.

You'll notice that the two named texts are advanced grammar books - I adapted these when I used them in class if I needed to, or just used some of the activities on the page.

I also highly suggest UT Austin's resources here

activities:

WARNING: I created these myself so there may be the occasional error or weird phrasing in questions etc. Phrasing may also be strange due to the level it was created for.

The formatting may be a bit funky because I copied from word so my full name wouldn't be on them.

song activities are fill in the blank or comprehension question exercises. they have the lyrics and some vocabulary translations with them.

song activities - I often showed the music video but you could just play the music if that works better for you

song activities - these are typically excerpts and not the whole song. most do not have the time stamps, but the lyrics should help you figure that out.

video or reading activities are typically comprehension questions. some have my instructions for using them in class, others are just the text/video and questions.

Some of these are harder than others (songs go faster/grammar involved is more difficult) so check before you use.

Hello everyone!

I'm a Filipina who has ADHD and is learning French and German just for educational purposes! I'm also trying to learn my native language, if there are any language resources that are related to Tagalog.

Currently finding a study partner here on Tumblr! :-)
