Workshop “Dictionary of the Eurowoche” 2

A very warm welcome, indeed, to all of you to this year’s virtual multi language workshop of the European Youth Week. This is the part of our virtual 2021 European Youth Week intended for language lovers. Today and for the next four days, you’ll find links to interesting and funny language websites that may surprise, excite, and delight you.

Let’s start with some nursery rhythms that we have in common.

You may have a look at: https://www.mamalisa.com/?t=e_family&c=58 where you find a variety of different versions of the song about the Itsy Bitsy Spider.
If you click the camera icon, you will find small videos of the song in different languages. You probably have to scroll down a bit first to find the video.

By the way, did you know that the German Christmas carol “Stille Nacht, Heilige Nacht” composed by the Austrian organist Franz Xaver Gruber in 1818 has been translated into numerous languages? Here you find a list of not less than 121 translations:

Is your language included?

And at the following facebook-website you may even listen to a version sung in French, German, Finnish, Italian Japanese, Spanish and Portuguese – at the same time!

It would be very nice, if you would participate actively in this virtual workshop by commenting on the above or by sharing other similar, wonderful language links.

See you again tomorrow!
