Audio support for my memrise vocabulary course

It took quite some time but now it is finally finished: I uploaded over 500 audio files to my memrise course where you can practice the vocabulary used in this blog’s courses: Learn Greenlandic - memrise

All the audio files are made by “Martha”, which is a female, synthetic, Greenlandic voice that can read out loud Greenlandic text input. It is developed by atuffat.gl and can be used online via the Language Secretariat of Greenland.

New internet found pieces for Greenlandic

Whilst not writing new Greenlandic lessons, I know - shame on me, I found some little new pieces that may be interesting for you.

1. The Greenlandic Broadcasting Corporation (KNR TV) has a 12-video playlist with some notes on Kalaallisut grammar in Greenlandic. It is worth a look and it is good practice for your listening comprehension of Greenlandic: Oqaasilerisa.

2. Be a spectator of language policy and development as new words are approved by the the ‘Language Secretariat of Greenland’. See the newly added and approved words on this page.

3. Download the Greenlandic spellchecker from the Greenlandic Secreteriat.

4. Download articles on Greenland(ic) from the Greenlandic Secretariat.

5. Browse the Greenlandic Secretariat's dictionary via English, Danish, Greenlandic and have it read the words out to you. (It also works for morphemes.)

6. In general, just browse the webpage of the ‘Language Secretariat of Greenland’ and find many more useful language tools, news, information, publications etc.

8. Hear Greenlandic podcasts of the KNR TV news, or browse the main page.

9. See this forum on Duolingo on a Duolingo course for Greenlandic and pay attention to the links provided there.

10. See these posts on Duolingo as language lessons for Greenlandic by ‘skuggstralar’.

11. The same person also created this very, very comprising Duolingo-esque memrise course for Greenlandic with audio files and grammar notes.
