Re: The benefits of learning a new language
There is an app called languagelearningwithnetflix or lln, that runs subtitles in the language you're trying to learn as well as your own language simultaneously. Its free to download. I watch programs in Spanish, with subtitles in Spanish and English to help with unfamiliar words or phrases. I use it to keep in practice and I'm not sure if it would work if you're starting with no knowledge of the language you're trying to learn. This has been helpful as I've been avoiding travel recently. You hear the language as it's spoken, giving you a better exposure to slang and local dialects.
