sentences or large text into your own database.
If you have the interest to learn LanguageCurrent's capabilities and are willing to put the effort into building your personal content database, then you will find LC a very useful tool in achieving language mastery.
LanguageCurrent's guiding principles are rooted in the natural language learning process. In the natural process, language is acquired through contextual experiences filled with activity and emotions. By utilizing the internet the user can identify content on all kinds of websites that he or she is motivated to access. With easy access to translation tools, LangaugeCurrent gives the user a convenient process to identify interesting content and establish the building blocks for their learning.
Once individual words are identified these words are organized into meaningful lists. Lists are groups of words that have a natural linguistic connection. In LangagueCurrent lists are built using major and minor categories to establish a meaningful relationship that reflects the semantic structure among these words. As with lists, pairs of words are connected together in associations that sharpen the semantic meaning of these words. In addition, each word is associated with an image that represents the meaning of that word visually and can potentially provide an emotional dimension that can be very helpful in learning that word. This process is essential for establishing the meaning of each word in its semantic natural context and not in mere translation.
