BENGALURU: Speaking more than one language helps you to understand two different cultures from its roots. Learning a new language is more fun than it is in schools, where we study languages as our primary or secondary subjects for the sake of marks. Being a bilingual also helps you succeed at your job. Today, everyone can learn and master a new language with the help of online platforms that are absolutely free of charge.

Here is the list of 10 such platforms to hone your language skills:

DuoLingo

Duolingo has a game-like interface, a fairly new platform that offers lessons on 19 different languages. The app is available on iPhone, Android and Windows phone and has won several awards including iPhone App of the Year 2013 and Google’s Best of the Best 2014.

Busuu

With over 50 million speakers as their community, Busuu offers 12 languages and very unique ones such as Arabic, Chinese and Japanese. You can easily sign in from your Facebook or Google account and the app is available for both iOS and Android.
