    <description>Learn a Language...Or Maybe Three!
The Fluent Show is on a mission to help you get excited about language learning. We learn languages every day in our lives, and have learnt over 15 different languages between us.
We share stories, news, tips, and ideas that will make you fluent...eventually. Subscribe to the show today to get your regular dose of Fluent love.
It is worth clarifying that we actively want to support anti-racism and will highlight and advocate for the equality of all. Language learning means committing to tolerance of other world views, and this open mind is a core value for me. This topic deserves well considered words so here are the best Kerstin managed to put together. (https://www.fluent.show/blacklivesmatter)

  <description>&lt;h2&gt;It's the European Day of Languages! Yay!&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here on the show, we love to celebrate this day. 3 years ago, Lindsay and I got together to bring you a &lt;a href="https://www.fluentlanguage.co.uk/blog/european-day-languages-quiz" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;HUGE quiz&lt;/a&gt;, we’ve made videos, we’ve spoken lots of European languages. We even have a European Day of Languages playlist on Spotify! &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And today, this special episode will bring you a quiz with a twist and you can play along.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;How To Play&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Before recording this show, Lindsay and I enrolled an assistant, Josiah who selected a list of 10 European languages for each of us&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We went away and researched those languages and also found out what they sound like&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;So Lindsay has 10 and I have 10 and we don’t know each others’ lists&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We’ll now play these languages to each other and to you listeners…and try to guess what they are!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Europe doesn’t just have the obvious languages, so this might get tricky but we’re ready to give it a good go!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;Get Language Facts And Resources&lt;/h2&gt;

&lt;p&gt;These show notes do NOT include the links for all the different languages mentioned on the show, because that would be spoiling the quiz for you. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you'd like to get a copy of the notes, simply &lt;a href="https://fluentlanguage.activehosted.com/f/9" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;click here to join the Fluent Language Newsletter.&lt;/a&gt; Once you join, I'll send you a password with access to my special membership area on the website where you can download the full show notes document.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Help Us Spread The Word&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Love The Fluent Show?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you have a second, a review on Apple Music or in your Podcasts app would be VERY appreciated. Or you can mention us on Instagram (#thefluentshow), Twitter @thefluentshow, or to your language learning buddy! &lt;/p&gt;
