Hello my friends!
Wishing everyone a joyful holiday and new year!
Wanted to make a quick video about three cool language-related Christmas gifts I received this year.
One is the lovely Rosetta Stone...for Navajo! Yes, the Navajo Language Renaissance organization (their site is here) received a grant from Rosetta Stone to help revitalize the language and create their own version of this popular immersion software.
Too fun! Check out my opinion of the Rosetta Stone environment in the video.
Second was Modern Mandarin Chinese Grammar by Claudia Ross and Jing-heng Sheng Ma. Needed a nice reference grammar for Chinese (my focus language, check out a lolzy video of me speaking it here), and I think this should do the trick.
Last but not least was a really cool introduction to the languages of the Pacific, suitably named Pacific Languages: An Introduction by John Lynch. Definitely the best resource for the amazing and understudied languages of the beautiful islands.
Enjoy the video!
