press release
Background: German firm Babbel.com has just bought out British FriendsAbroad.com - but Brit owned Learn10.com is there to make you learn using the methods of the Advertising industry.
English speakers don’t exactly have the best reputation for speaking a second language. Those that do are the exception, rather than the rule. But, now is the time to try, because learning a new language just got a lot more convenient. The learn10 widget is a new service which helps you pick up 10 new words every day. It uses the thinking of the advertising industry, and you can find it on all over the Internet.
The old fashioned, Brits Abroad way of communicating with “Johnny Foreigner” was to talk loudly, and, if that didn’t work, shout. With 750 million people around the world learning English, it’s easy to see why native speakers can get away without learning the local lingo, so why try?
Nicola Robinsonova, from learn10.com says that the number one reason given by learn10cusers, is, because it’s fun! Brain fitness and career opportunities are also important, but pleasure was the number 1 motivator for language learners. Learning a language for love was also important, with many learners saying that they were inspired to learn because of their partner, or family.
Why now? We are seeing rapid technological development. There are a host of new products being created for the growing market of online language learners. Many of these are currently free, or available for a small charge. And though 80% of the Internet is in English, there are lots of materials in other languages, such as tv and radio stations and local newspapers. These days you can be immersed without leaving your computer. You can swap languages with native speakers on several language sites such as German based Babbel.com.
One tool, the Learn10 widget, began with its founders, Mike and Nic, moved to a small village in South Bohemia.
“We’d been learning Czech for 18 months before we moved. Our classes were great - but, lacking time, we skipped class & didn’t do our homework. As Czech isn’t a common language, there weren’t so many resources available for it online. We created Learn10 out of our own need, so that learning a language is part of our day, not something that takes extra time. We now offer 22 languages (the long tail), so not just the most popular ones like French, German & Spanish.
“I get to see 10 daily words in lots of different places: my email & twitter accounts, blogs and language sites. They’re on Facebook, my desktop and we have a screensaver as well. You can even subscribe to an SMS service to get the words sent to your mobile phone every day.”
The inspiration for Learn10 came out of Nicola’s experience as a researcher for the advertising industry. “We are using the techniques of the advertising industry to help people learn what they want to.” says Nicola.
The learn10 widget spins out user generated lists around the Internet through an affiliate scheme - this means that any publisher can put an ‘advert’ on their site which holds the content selected by members of Learn10.com. Sponsored slots are also available to spread the content even further.
The English language is the lingua franca around the world, arguably the UK’s most successful export. If you want to get on in business or a career you need to be able to speak English. In many countries, such as the Czech Republic, you need to be fluent to get a place at a good university.
Nicola says that this affords great opportunities to native English speakers: “if you have an education, and a willingness to travel, you’re pretty much guaranteed work in any country. Native English speakers are like gold dust.”
“With the beginnings of a new language under your belt, you can make changes to your life… blog from Seville, for example, or create a web 2.0 startup from South Bohemia!”

We thought it was time we looked again at this fundamental question. Over the past 9 months we have developed the widget, guided by the requests of our members, and the limits of our own resources.
We have added:
‘listen’ word recordings (provided both free - user generated, or from a speaking avatar via a subscription service)
A test
Grammatical info
Multiple languages
‘write’ common phase translator
’share’ - directory of useful language resources
twitter feeds (providing the words as RSS as well)
a facebook application
We are currently developing:
a daily email (free)
sms service (pre-register via the ‘my account’ page on the widget, $0.20 US per message)
a screensaver ($9.95 US per year or included in the premium package)
For us, the most exciting part of the project is the use of the techniques of the advertising industry in learning - to this end we are building partnerships with other sites so that we can maximise the number of times a day you will come into contact with the materials you want to learn. Please get in contact if you have space to join our affiliate scheme - making the learnit daily words available in a variety of standard advert sizes.

Learn10 is the obsession of a British husband and wife team based in South Bohemia. They had moved to a derelict country house south of Prague to make a green tech reconstruction - they didn’t have running water, but at least they had the essentials - a fast Internet connection.
“We’d been learning Czech for 18 months before we moved out here. Our classes were great - but, lacking time, we skipped class & didn’t do our homework. As Czech isn’t a common language, there weren’t so many resources available for it online.”
“We needed to expand our vocabulary. My new year resolution was to learn 10 words a day. Then at the end of January, Mike asked me if I could think of a Facebook app he could build. Learn10 was the widget that I needed.”
They had the first release of the application live within a week of having the idea - and have been developing it intensively since then.
“We made it super easy for people to give us feedback, and our users were very vocal about us needing to add sound & a test function, so these were our first priority.” They now offer 22 different languages on the widget.
Their formula is to take the most common 1000 English words and distribute 10 of these every day. Learn10 puts these in a variety of different places that users visit every day, such as their Facebook page, blog & email. You can subscribe to the twitter feed for a specific language & soon you’ll be able to get the words by SMS too. It’s exactly the same principles used by the advertising industry - brand exposure leading to brand recall - but giving people content that they want to remember.
“It’s been hard trying to balance the needs of running a startup with keeping a roof over our heads - quite literally. But now we have water coming into the house through pipes, not holes in the roof.”
Most of the content is free of charge. As well as looking at the words on screen you can use the widget to hear the words pronounced, either by native speakers who have made recordings using the ’speak’ function, or using the speaking teacher avatars in ‘listen’ (a subscription service - or free if you contribute recordings). You can also add & look up common phrases using the ‘write’ section and build relationships with other learners in ’share’.
They are developing added value content such as a phrasal verb package & more advanced word lists. These will be available for a small monthly charge.

I’m delighted to announce that Korean has now been added to Learn10.
Korea is a fascinating area with a chequered history. South Korea is well know as being one of the most technologically advanced countries in the world. 75% of the population have high speed Internet access & LG and Samsung are household names around the world.
Online gaming is more popular than TV in Korea. We recently had Korean visitors (part of the very hard working YWAM team) who were pleased to find out that we had WIFI so they were able to get back online. We hope that Korean students of English will discover Learn10 and integrate it into their other online activities.
Looking at the data on Google Analytics - we had just 27 visitors from South Korea last month. It will be interesting to watch this story develop.

Okay, so we’re yet to get our mits on an iPhone ourselves, but follow this links to see what learn10 would look like on iPhone:
Unfortunately, this is not what you see if you get learn10 from the Apple iPhone directory. We submitted our upgraded app ages ago, and have had no clue about how long it will take to add the contemporary version of Learn10 to the Apple iPhone directory. It’s interesting to go back and see the first version of Learn10. It really has improved… and we have a new release imminently!

“LearnItLists is a new way to learn a language. Originally from the UK, Nicola and her husband built this widget to help teach themselves Czech. The couple actually lives in and is restoring an old farmhouse outside of the city and they spend their mornings coding and their evenings digging up unexploded ordnance in the Czech country-side. They also took part in the Elevator Pitch-off.”

(10,000 users of learn10 beta)
We have made some amendments to the learn10 website over recent days, and in the background, we’ve been working on the next release of learn10 - one that incorporates a speaking avatar who will read out your word list, as well as a payment system. We have to charge for the sound because we are charged each time the speaking avatar is played. The sound will only be available on verified languages, so we will be adding English & Spanish sound first, with others to follow soon.
We are really close to having the new word lists for Arabic, German and Japanese uploaded into the learnit widget. We just need to tweak the widget slightly first. All three languages will included grammatical info (which will pop up if you hover over the text - like with Spanish) and our Japanese translator has included Romaji (westernised pronunciation) as well as Kanji, Hiragana & Katakana. It’s really exciting that we will soon be able to offer this additional content. As soon as we have some income from the sound, we will be able to add verified translations & pronunciations to other languages.
Another exciting development is the discovery of MyVox. This is an ad supported service where you can use an ordinary phone to record sounds for a web site. We could use this service so that learnit users can record their daily word lists for free. Over time this will build a library of pronunciation sounds for each word in many different languages, including endangered languages that would never make it onto commercial systems.
We would like to build in some social features into our myvox system, so that, for example, other learners can vote on which is the best pronunciation of a word. I can’t wait to give it a go - I wonder if native speakers will be prepared to spend some time recording words for learners of their language, for example. Hmm, maybe I should create a poll about it.
