I Learned a Language by Reading Game of Thrones
This is how I read a book in a foreign language.
Four years ago, after finishing the Portuguese course in Duolingo, I tried to find a way to practice all the grammar rules and vocabulary I learned.
In the beginning, I didn’t have success in finding a language partner to practice the language and my free time didn’t allow me to watch movies or TV shows in Portuguese, so I decided to read a book to practice the language on the go.
That’s when I chose the Game of Thrones books since I thought I could easily understand the books because I watched the TV show. Besides, I wanted to find out more about my favorite characters, so it was a win-win!
In this article, I’ll show you what I did to learn a language by reading Game of Thrones and how that helped me improve my language skills.
