会讲多种语言的人，每个国家和每个文化都有。我希望这些视频将鼓励更多的人学会另一种语言。Felix是比利时人， 但是对很多文化和语言有兴趣。他作了很多视频在http://www.youtube.com/user/loki2504 Learn a language at: http://www.lingq.com Visit my blog: http://blog.thelinguist.com

Felix (youtube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/loki2504), who is Belgian, is yet another of the many polyglots who have learned a number of languages from different parts of the globe. It is a wonderful way to discover human creativity. Youtube makes these people visible, and hopefully inspires others to emulate them. I apologize for the sound quality of Felix's recording but that is what we sometimes get with Skype and Call Recorder I guess.

I apologize for the poor quality of sound from Jarda. This was recorded on Call Recorder. I also apologize for not editing this. Just listen to a few minutes to get the gist. This is posted as a record of my level as I start to convert my passive knowledge to active knowledge. The next video record will be of day one of my Five Days to Fluency Challenge in Prague in October. I will be continuing my listening, reading and vocab review activities, while speaking three times a week with our LingQ tutors, usually 30 minutes at time. I get a report from my tutors of correct phrases containing the words and phrases that I used incorrectly. I import these reports into LingQ, where I can easily create flash cards of key phrases for study. Learn a language at: http://www.lingq.com Visit my blog: http://blog.thelinguist.com

Tweet to laoshu505000 to follow Moses on Twitter. Moses and I originally did this last year. However, I could not get the sound to transfer from Call Recorder to Youtube and gave up.
