Craziest Things Overheard In Another Language



If you speak more than one language, it's undoubtedly happened to you: while minding your own business and being great, you hear some people talking in your target language.

Let’s face it, the faces of the language learning community lack diversity (see what I did there? Let’s face it, the faces of…never mind). Anyway, I can’t tell you how many times I came across these “language bloggers you should follow” or “notable polyglot” lists, only to scour the list and not see so much as a brown face on the list.

A Quick Guide To Dating In a Foreign Language: 7 Guy Types To Avoid


Dating in another language/dating a foreigner is another way to get language practice and it can also be fun.

About The Creator




Hi, I'm Language Bae! I'm a Foreign Language Enthusiast and an aspiring Polyglot.

I created this digital community to be THE online resource for black women in the language community who are either language learners, language enthusiasts or linguistas--women who have mastered language. My goal is to inspire and encourage black women in the language community by celebrating images of us as multilinguals and allowing us to connect with each other.

I aim to provide guidance and support with helpful tips, resources and content to those pursuing multilingualism. Language learning is a journey not a destination. Let's make this journey together.
