Here are a few online language-related resources that I came across recently:
– A series of videos on YouTube showing how Chinese characters have developed from the original pictures:
- 漢字演變 汉字演变 History Change of Hanji_01
- 漢字演變 汉字演变 History Change of Hanji_02
- 漢字演變 汉字演变 History Change of Hanji_03
- 漢字演變 汉字演变 History Change of Hanji_04
- and there are many more for individual characters here, and on subsequent pages.
– esPodkasto – la podkasto en esperanto (Esperanto podcast)
– Lojban Radio – an introduction to this logical language (in Lojban and English)
– Hour of Babble – podcasts about constructed languages (conlangs)
Wonder why they spelled it “Hanji” instead of “Hanzi”.
Nice!
I found the Eddie Izzard video hilarious 😛 But the Hanji videos were not that helpful if you don’t know any chinese… well a bit of the first video was, but nothing else.
How do you guys lik these languages so much that you get pleasure from them? I wanto learn af-soomaali
Somali is nice but I like to go west.
