DRASTICALLY improve your target-language listening and pronunciation skills in less than

15 minutes a day with our practical and overwhelm-free courses, or we'll give you your money back!

Dear beginner learners of:

French, Spanish, German, Italian, Russian, or Danish....

..here's why listening can transform your language

skills...

Are you struggling to understand spoken language, but feel overwhelmed and lost

when it comes to finding suitable materials to fix the problem?


Either the resources are way too difficult (intermediate through advanced)

leaving you uninterested...


...or the people speak so slowly and use vocabulary that is completely irrelevant for

you. (Do you really need to know 30 different species of fish or plants?)


Have you also noticed that, many courses contain a ton of English, which you can

probably already speak!


This is where Bite Size Languages come in...

INTRODUCING...

"Bite Size Languages"

A new series of courses providing a complete system for listening practice, that

beginners (or false beginners) can effortlessly understand and follow along to.


With 100 lessons of short and easy dialogues, anyone, even the busiest of people

will have time to go through at least one lesson on a daily basis.


Plus, with comprehensive lesson notes and extras anyone can dive in and enhance

their studying with transcripts, translations, vocabulary, and grammar sections.


We've done all the work for you, so you can just sit back and listen to the lessons,

and notice how quick your listening comprehension and language skills improve.

Who's Behind?

Hey!


My name is Kris Broholm....


I've been running the Actual Fluency Podcast and

Blog since 2014, where I've interviewed over 150

language learning experts.


Frustrated with the lack of good, easy-to-consume

listening resources for beginners I set out to create

Bite Size Languages to fill the gap.

What people say about Bite Size Languages

"Bite size languages is the course you are looking for if you

want to start learning a language from scratch. Plain and simple."

Luca Lampariello

"Great course with useful sentences. I like the Soundwise

app, it's easy to use on the go and possible to speed up or

slow down the speech rate. And you can still access all the

written info if needed."

FEATURES

  • 100 lessons of beginner-friendly dialogues (comprehensible input)
  • Easy to listen to in just a few minutes per day - avoiding overwhelm and burnout
  • Relevant and useful every-day vocabulary - no 50 species of fish or other useless phrases
  • Additional materials for every lesson transcripts, cultural tips, and word by word translations.
  • Available for 6 different languages - Spanish, German, Italian, French, Russian, and Danish.

BENEFITS

  • Improve your listening comprehension. Learning to understand natural, spoken language is one of the biggest challenges for new learners? If you struggle to understand, or when words start and end then you need more listening practice.
  • Improve your pronunciation skills. If you don't train your ear to the sounds of the language, how will you be able to pronounce them correctly?
  • Learn the grammar in CONTEXT. No need to memorise boring tables or rule sheets. Once you've listened to the dialogues you can dive into the grammar explanations and guide provided.

“Comprehensible input is the crucial and necessary ingredient for the acquisition of language.”

-Prof. Stephen Krashen, linguist and creator of The Input Hypothesis

According to Krashen, success in language learning comes down to "comprehensible input"


That means foreign language materials that are slightly harder than your current level.


The Bite Size Courses provide exactly this for beginners and false beginners.

How each lesson is structured

Here's what each lesson contains.

Lesson Audio

Clear, target language audio featuring 2 native speakers (male and female). Conversational in

nature, it features common daily situations.

NOTE: You can find samples for the other languages further down this page. Danish samples coming soon.

Transcript

Use the line-by-line transcript as a guide when you listen, this will really help you make out the natural pauses and pronunciation in the language compared to how it's written. This will also

help with learning the vocabulary.

Sample Transcript:

Arriver en retard.


Salut. Comment ça va ?

Tu es en retard.

S'il te plaît ne te mets pas en colère contre moi.

Est-ce que tu t'es perdu ?

Oui. Je me suis perdu.

Ça va maintenant ?

Oui, tout va bien.

Super.

Grammar Notes

In this section you'll learn some of the most

important grammar points for the lesson. This is

not mandatory studying, as you'll get a lot of the grammar through context just by listening.

Sample Grammar Notes:

"Il" is a neutral value and is more of an "it" than a "he." "S'il vous plaît" would be the formal form.


"Se perdre" is another exemple of the reflexive form of the verb with "se" (oneself): "je me perds," "tu te perds," "il se perd," etc.


French adjectives have different endings when describing people, depending on the gender. In this case, "perdu" is for a male, whereas for a female it would be "perdue."

Translation

There's a useful translation for you to check your comprehension. We've put this at the end of the

lesson because you'll learn better if you try to understand as much as you can first.

Sample Translation:

Showing up late


Hi. How are you?

You're late.

Please don't be mad at me.

Did you get lost?

Yes. I got lost.

Are you OK now?

Yes, everything is all right.

Great.

Literal Translation

You'll also find a direct translation, which reveals

how the grammar works in practice.

Sample Literal Translation:

To-arrive in lateness.


Hi. How it goes?

You are in lateness.

If he to-you pleases not you put not in anger against me.

Is it that you yourself is lost?

Yes. I myself am lost.

It goes now?

Yes, everything goes well.

Great.

Cultural Notes

Communication isn't just about grammar and vocabulary. Each lesson explains common

practices, etiquette, culture, and much more. A

great way to impress native speakers with some additional knowledge tourists won't know!

Cultural Notes Example:

In some cultures, being late is wholly unacceptable, but in France, there's a more open-minded view on late arrivals.


This is especially true in the south of France, where being 15 to 20 minutes late isn't frowned upon.


When you do arrive, you'll be expected to be bringing a small gift, like a bouquet of flowers, a live plant, or chocolates.

"I've worked through the first 10 lessons of Bite Size German. I'm excited to continue and have already (re)learned quite a bit. I studied German years ago and this is an excellent option as a refresher or as a first step in the language."

Michelle Alcido

"Courses are straight to the point. Lessons are interesting and short, so it shouldn't be a problem to maintain consistency in learning. Quality of texts, audio files and everything else is awesome. My warm recommendation!"

Vladimir Velickovic

Frequently asked questions

I've tried to answer your questions below. If you have any additional questions don't hesitate to reach out by clicking the button in the right hand corner.

Bite Size Languages FAQ

How long does it take to see improvements in my target language?

Due to the variety and repetition built into the lessons your language skills will be improving from the very first listen you do. Repeat every lesson a few dozen times and your skills will skyrocket!

What if it doesn't work for me?

Bite Size Languages contain a variety of content formats that suit most learner personalities equally well. If you find that this is not the case, please contact me within 90 days of your purchase and I'll give you a full refund, no questions asked.

What if I don't have a ton of time right now?

Not a problem. Each of the 100 lessons of Bite Size Languages is short and to the point, so even the busiest of language learners can get at least one lesson in per day. You can also download the companion app and listen on the go when you are taking public transport, or going for a walk to learn without effort. Missing a day here and there is also not a problem, just get back on track when you can.

What kind of Spanish is taught in BSL Spanish?

The course features Mexican Spanish speakers, so that's the pronunciation you'll be hearing. The vocabulary and grammar is very universal and free from any local variations.

What kind of French is taught in BSL French?

The BSL French course is based on France French. You will have no problem using this French in Quebec either, and you'd be able to understand 95%+ of what the locals say there.

Do I need to know the Russian Alphabet to use Bite Size Russian?

No. The core part of Bite Size Languages are the audio lessons, which require no knowledge of the alphabet. If you have knowledge of the alphabet you will also be able to use the transcripts and accompanying materials. The Russian alphabet is not tricky, so I'd highly encourage anyone to set aside and hour or two to learn it - it will come in handy sooner or later, not just with Bite Size Languages.

I'm a complete beginner, how far will I get with Bite Size Languages?

Bite Size Languages is a great method for complete beginners to increase listening comprehension, improve pronunciation, and for fine-tuning the ears to the language. You'll also learn hundreds of words of useful vocabulary and phrases which will be useful all the way through the intermediate levels of a language.

I'm at the intermediate level - will this still be useful?

Probably not. Bite Size Language Courses are made for beginners. Once you're into the intermediate levels, these courses will probably be too easy for you.

Did you record all the lessons yourself?

Oh, god no! I don't think my pronunciation would be quite good enough for that in all 5 languages! Instead, each lesson is recorded by a pair of native speakers (male and female). Maybe if I bring out a Bite Size Languages Danish next would you hear my voice on the recordings ;)

How do I claim my bonuses?
