I just found out about this website called Lingua.ly ~ I find it reaaally cool! It's a website that helps you collect vocabulary words while you're searching the web. So for example, if you're reading an article in your target language and you'd like to save a certain word from the article that you want to remember, this website/app let's you do that XD If you use Google Chrome, they have this extension that allows you to collect words from anywhere on the internet. When you find a word, you double click on it and a box pops up that shows the definition of the word and it sounds it out for you too. After you click on it, it saves the word to your vocabulary list on the Lingua.ly website~ Cool, right?!?
Sorry, I just thought that this was really cool LOL. (-feeling really nerdy right now-)
1. They have a really good web app to get started: http://webapp.lingua.ly
2. You can use their extension for Google Chrome browsers to look up words you find on any website: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/lingualy/iilcekgoelpgecpjnnoikhbleipnjdhf
3. There are a few new mobile apps so you can practice the words you are learning on your phone
iPhone: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lingua.ly-learn-language-vocabulary/id880933022?mt=8
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lingualy.lingualymobile
I think it's a really useful tool for teachers and learners alike!
Lingua.ly works really well with italki- here's an article on how you can use them together to make your learning more effective: http://www.italki.com/article/179/3-ways-to-get-more-out-of-your-italki-lessons#.U6rVBl64mFI
This is very useful! Thank you for sharing :)
@Anastasiya I'm not sure about iPhones, but this app is availble for Android phones. :) You can also use this on your desktop computer. :)
