Learn a language with Netflix

What is Netflix?

Netflix is a large streaming provider from the USA and offers movies and series from all over the world. The nice thing is,

that Netflix even offers movies & series in German, Tamil, Arabic, Swedish and many others. Perfect for all language learners

among you.

What does it provide?

Netflix offers since a few months a special search function to better find movies and series. The nice thing for all language enthusiasts is that you can search for movies and series that are in a certain language or have subtitles in a certain language.

How can we use it?

It is quite simple. If you are using the Netflix app you click the filter icon in the right top corner. And then another window will appear, where you can choose which language you want as audio and/or as subtitles.

Unfortunately, the search is not currently available everywhere, but if you watch Netflix through your browser,

it should work.

Log in to netflix.com with your account.
Then click on Audio and Subtitles(https://www.netflix.com/browse/subtitles), at the very bottom of the website. Then a page will appear where you can filter by language.
Then click on the first selection box and click on Audio, then in the second selection box you will see all the languages available, although these are not all the languages that are available.
To find another language you have to change the URL. The URL is https://www.netflix.com/browse/audio/. If you now want to see a series in Swedish, you can simply add the language abbreviation (list of all language abbreviations) to the URL. For Swedish this is: SV. So the new URL would be: https://www.netflix.com/browse/audio/sv. And you will see all movies and series that are available in Swedish.

Tip: If you are not sure about the language, try to watch the movie or series in your native language or a language you know well. When you are a bit better and more confident in the language you can watch the movie or series in the original language, but with subtitles in your native language. Then you can try to adjust the audio and subtitles to your target language. And if you are very confident in the language, you can of course watch without subtitles and in the original language.

Which tool for learning a language with Netflix?

Another tool to learn languages with Netflix is the Google Chrome addon "Language Reactor". This tool shows the translation of the subtitles and you can save vocabulary for yourself while watching a movie or series.
