Language bridge · plurilingual and intercultural
Use every language you know to learn English, and use English to understand other people.
más alto que → taller than · más interesante que → more interesting than · mejor → better.
Taller than: plus grand que (FR) · mais alto que (PT) · più alto di (IT) · größer als (DE). German adds -er, like English!
The U.S. uses miles, feet, pounds and °F; Honduras uses kilometers, meters, kilos and °C. Compare two cities or two people in both systems.
Explain a comparison chart (two phones, two universities) to a classmate in simple words.
Your languages count: ask at home or in your community how to say it in Garífuna, Miskitu, the English of the Bay Islands or any other language you know, and add it to your glossary. Add it to «My languages» in your Passport →
