Show HN: ListLang – Learn Languages to Fluency Depending on the language, the top 1,000 most frequently used words account for ~85% of all speech and text, and the top 5,000 account for ~95%. It’s really important to learn these words. Learning words in context helps you naturally understand their meaning and use cases, while avoiding the rote memorization of definitions. ListLang helps you achieve fluency by learning the 5,000 most frequently used words in context. Most language learning apps never move past beginner level content. This method requires some basic knowledge, but otherwise it should rapidly increase your level past the intermediate level and into the advanced level. I built this app because I studied Spanish and Russian for many years in school, but when I traveled to Argentina and Russia, I realized I didn’t know enough vocabulary to meaningfully communicate with the people there. I hope it will be helpful for you. https://ift.tt/nv7f26e February 8, 2023 at 09:04PM

I would be really grateful for advice from this community on how to best approach marketing. We had a great TechCrunch article covering our launch [3], and we posted it on various music websites. Turns out advertising on Google or Apple Search is a dark art, though. We have some good ideas for developing a good social media presence, but they will take time. Please hit us with feedback, opinions and advice that you think a young ind...
