Dübels Geistesblitz       
Marcus Dübel: Die Wikipedia beschreibt einen Geistesblitz in etwa so: Unter einem Geistesblitz versteht man eine plötzliche Erkenntnis oder Idee oder eine geistvolle Erleuchtung. Meist weiß die betroffene Person nicht, woher dieser Einfall gekommen ist, weil er nicht unbedingt einem vorherigen Gedankengang entspringt, sondern aus heiterem Himmel zu kommen scheint. Besser könnte ich meinen Podcast selbst nicht beschreiben.

Hitomi's Nihongo Course. Part1               
This course is a very basic introduction of Japanese. If you are interested in Japanese but don't feel like to start from "Hi, How are you. Fine, thank you" kind of stuff, even though your Japanese goes as far as "sushi", "arigato" and "otaku", here is the solution. I speak Japanese and English at the audio to make your life easier. Don't you worry, I hate studying too. I will be on your side! I'd love to hear your *honest* feedbacks about this course. Please go to "Open Forum on LingQ" to leave your message(s). Thank you!
