Do you use YouTube to learn a language?
I’m building @Vocabison, a Chrome extension that explains words and expressions in the context of the video.
What frustrates you most when learning this way?

French "Ça marche":
A lamp turns on: "It works."
"Meet at 6?": "Sounds good."
Good news: nobody has to walk.
What French phrase confused you this week?
"Ça pique" can describe:
Hot sauce: "It’s spicy!"
An €8 coffee: "Ouch, that’s expensive!"
Your mouth or your wallet. French has you covered.
What price last made you say "ça pique"?
French in context: "C’est lourd."
Moving a box: "It’s heavy."
Hearing the same joke for the 10th time: "That’s annoying."
One needs muscles. The other needs a new joke.
Which kind of "lourd" was your day?
