Easy Languages: Stories of Language Learning

18: This is Why We Use Subtitles in 2 Languages

Join Rita and Raffaele in this new episode as they discuss the importance of using comprehensible input throughout your language learning journey, and how a certain degree of difficulty is needed and welcome while consuming language-related content.
In the second part of the episode, they share a few resources like apps, books, and courses that make use of this principle and have helped them in the past and can help you too!
But what does Rita really think about all this? Can you believe that even in-comprehensible input can help?
