This website was found by my mother, of all people, and I think that she’s going to use it to learn a few words in the Korean language.
The site is called Word Showers, and their service is available for free. Their website seems specifically focused on helping you increase your vocabulary, which is the all important part of learning a foreign language.
I like what I see so far. Each vocabulary group is broken down into a simple 10 words, and the words start out very easy. Both the English and the Korean spelling of the word is provided, and MP3 files are provided for each group of 10. That, of course, allows you to hear how the word is correctly spoken (or you can listen to each word directly from the website).
The word collections are broken down into nouns, adjectives, verbs and adverbs.
They do exaggerate a bit in their self-promotion, but that’s to be expected from any service. Word Showers is a website that I’m definitely going to begin using.
