HelloTalk fyrir íslensku.

Since talk of forming a study group is going around, I cannot help but ‘promote’ the app HelloTalk. This app is specifically designed for language acquisition, aiming to connect learners with native speakers (but also more experienced learners). On this app, you can post statuses, pictures, and more in your target language, and other people can correct them and also add comments. Corrects appear in both red (before) and green (after), making it really easy to learn from them! It is also possible to post audio clips, or to share audio via chats so that people can correct your pronunciation without always having to schedule face-to-face conversations (making it very convenient to collaborate without conflicting schedules). Of course, there is the option of setting up both voice and video calls so that we have the option to speak live with one another, should the need arise. We can also form group chats for all of these things, so that we may share text, audio, and even video within our own bubble of space.

Overall, this app is phenomenal for group language study. The only problem so far, other than a few pestering people trying to hook-up, is that there aren’t a lot of Icelandic learners or speakers on the app yet. That could change, though, if we all decided to hop on it and bring the Icelandic ‘section’ to life.

If you decide to join HelloTalk for learning Icelandic, search “fjorn_is” to find me! I can make a post later to share all of our usernames and tags, or you can feel free to post it on the blog (via submission) yourself!

Bless bless!
