Learning a new language can be a challenging and rewarding experience. With the help of artificial intelligence (AI), it is now easier than ever to learn a new language. Here are some ways you can use AI to improve your language skills.
1. Listen to Text Using Speechify
One of the easiest ways to immerse yourself in the language is by listening, but finding interesting audio content could be hard. But with AI you can turn text into speech, for example with Speechify. This makes it possible to listen to almost anything you find on the internet.
2. Turn Speech into Text
Reading is more effective than listening, but much of the interesting content out there is too difficult for beginners. However, spoken language tends to be easier to read, so with the help of AI, you can turn speech into text. You can also read the transcription of what you listen to.
3. Translate Any Text to Your Target Language
There are many translation tools available that can help you translate any text to your target language. This can help you to find interesting content that you can read in your target language. You can even convert speech to text, translate it to your target language, and listen to the text. However, it is important to note that translations are not always accurate, especially if the languages are not closely related or not much used.
4. Get Feedback on Your Writing
AI tools can also help you correct and give feedback on your writing. They can identify your most common mistakes and help you improve your grammar and vocabulary. This means you no longer need to pay someone to correct your texts. Keep in mind that this won’t work for all languages, like those that are not widely used.
5. Chat with AI
AI tools can also chat with you in your target language. It can ask you questions and ideas on what to write about. This can help you practice your conversation skills without talking to a real human.
6. Make Flashcards
Flashcards are a great way to learn new vocabulary. AI tools can make flashcards for you, so you can spend less time making your own flashcards. There are many ways of doing this, but you can for example ask chatGPT to make flashcards you can import to Anki. If you want to you can ask for example phrases.
