Nepalis generally struggle--or have difficulties--with a lot of things.

Here is a list of things that, as far as I am concerned, a lot of Nepalis find #INTELLECTUALLY #challenging.

1. imagining others DOING things that they can't imagine themselves doing

Today I want to share some resources that I really enjoy - to do with language in a more general sense. #language #linguists #translation #interpreting
The first one is the @NativLang youtube channel - a must-watch for everyone passionate about languages.

Another great resource is the @langfocus youtube channel, where you can find samples from all sorts of languages and which I really enjoy watching as well!

🎧 [JSP] BINAURAL LISTENING

It seems we’ve been doing it wrong all along!

Bottom line: #interpreting with just 1 ear fully covered may be harmful not just for our hearing - but also for our brain.

Explanation and possible solutions below👇

#BinauralListening #1nt
Solution? Both ears fully covered + 👉self-monitoring👈 (that is, listening both to “Floor” AND to your own voice through your headphones).

⚠️ Important: this does not mean that you should now simply fully cover the other ear and keep interpreting as usual. Please read below.
Medical and acoustic explanation in this excellent article by @InterStartRT.

@Dolm_in_NRW might have some valuable info on the topic too :)
