For those that don’t know me, there is nothing that I love more than a good bit of learning, be it achademic or self-learning there is always so much you can do to self-improve. For me at the moment I am learning Spanish! thanks to the Opera plugin Toucan (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/toucan-language-learning), this plugin allows you to learn many languages whilst browsing the Internet.
As you can see from the above image, Toucan hot-swaps English words out for Spanish words, but how does that help, simply put your mouse over the word and it gives you a translation and the option to listen to the word. This may sound like an odd way to work, but it gives you the choice of a much larger vocabulary right out of the box. If you want to learn the basics, you could try simple stories aimed at children?
So whilst not a language course like DuoLingo, I feel that for what it does Toucan deserves 10/10 what are your thoughts please feel free to comment below
