    A tip for translating the comments: Download the extension "Google Dictionary" and Google will give you the definition for any word that you double click on. If it's in a different language, it translates it! And if you highlight a phrase and click on the "Google Dictionary" icon in your toolbar, it will translate the whole phrase! I love it

    amazing! I've been wanting a tool exactly like LLN for ages. A fansub site I was on for a while had something more basic - you could enable two sub languages at once. This blows that away.
    It generates pinyin for Chinese characters automatically, highlights based on word-frequency lists, and even changes your left and right buttons to page from subtitle to subtitle instead of 10 seconds at a time....so powerful. I'm floored.
    Thanks for posting this.

  • @drewshaw297

    Hey, I love your channel! Would you still advocate starting out with target language subtitles (as opposed to english subtitles) when learning a language with a non phonetic writing system? (Eg Mandarin or Cantonese) and if not, how can I bridge that gap between unknown characters and having an extensive understanding of what's being said while I'm watching?

    • @MultilingualMastery
      @MultilingualMastery  3 года назад

      My guess is that if you don't have at least a reasonable level of familiarity with a different writing system, those subtitles aren't going to do a whole lot. It's the same with any language - if you can't understand the subtitles at all, you'll basically be reading gibberish until you do. That's not to say you can't enjoy videos or movies and get used to the feel of the language, but if you can't get a general idea of the subtitles, you're kind of SOL with understanding them.
      So, I would say to either start learning to read it first, focus on listening, or just enjoy the media :)

    Basically the plugin will replace "WORD" with the target word and pop out a screen with the results for the target word from Spanishdict.com.
