Learn a language through music!
7 April 2022
Music is one of the most enjoyable ways to keep a language alive. Discover our Spotify playlists in French, German and Dutch!
During my language and literature studies, I listened to Racine Carrée by Stromae before every French exam. I sang along to the songs and instantly got into a French mindset. Without even realizing it, I was improving my pronunciation, expanding my vocabulary and sharpening my listening skills.
I've kept that habit ever since. That's why I created these three Spotify playlists featuring some of my favourite songs in French, German and Dutch.
You might just discover your next favourite artist.
Get even more out of it
- Listen to music you genuinely enjoy and create your own playlist.
- Read the lyrics from time to time (Spotify often displays them automatically).
- Sing along to improve your pronunciation and fluency.
- Look up a word or expression that catches your attention every now and then.
Music immerses you in both the language and its culture. Before you know it, you'll find yourself singing entire sentences in French.
Happy listening!
