Summary of the activities
We are keen to be involved with the International Year of Languages because we can provide support for anyone with Internet access to share their native language. Though we are beginning with the world's most common languages, we also want people who speak anything from Cornish to Mirpuri to be involved in sharing their language.

Learnit works by building vocabulary. Every day 10 words to learn from a list of the 1000 most common English words are allocated. When you refresh the page, the words on your list will appear one by one. You can show or hide the meaning and swap between the two languages as you wish.

By seeing this same list many times in one day, learning will take place in the same way as used throughout the advertising industry. Then, next time you are actively studying (in class, with a text book or an online course) you’ll find that more and more words are familiar to you. Advertisers call this brand
exposure leading to brand recall, but you’ll be learning useful vocabulary instead.
