Langage Resource: Viki

July 7, 2012 — Leave a comment
Yesterday I discovered a great resource for language learning: Viki, an award-winning start-up that crowdsources translation of video subtitles.  You specify a language or country, and are presented with a list of publicly available movies, music videos, and TV shows.  You can then watch the show with subtitles in the language of your choice.  An interactive subtitle editor lets users add or modify subtitles as they go.

I haven’t spent a lot of time here yet, but have already found some great Arabic resources.
