Sviniet Eiropas Valodu dienu (EVD) kopā ar mums!



2024: Languages for Peace

700 miljoni eiropiešu no Eiropas Padomē pārstāvētajām 46 dalībvalstīm tiek mudināti savas dzīves laikā apgūt pēc iespējas vairāk valodu: gan izglītības iestādēs, gan pašmācības ceļā. Eiropas Padome ir pārliecināta, ka daudzvalodība ir līdzeklis labākai starpkultūru sapratnei un tā ir mūsu kontinenta kultūras mantojuma galvenā sastāvdaļa. Tāpēc arī Eiropas Padome iestājas par plurilingvismu Eiropā.
Eiropas Valodu diena ir Eiropas Padomes (Strasbūrā) iniciatīva un kopš 2001. gada tiek svinēta 26. septembrī.

Most difficult letter/word/phrase to pronounce!

For example, the letter 'Ř' (a ‘raised alveolar non-sonorant trill’!) from Czech is reputed to be one of the most difficult letters to pronounce in the world – except (of course) if you are Czech! Can you come up with something just as difficult to pronounce or even more so – either in your own language or in the one you are learning? If so, send us a short video illustrating this challenging piece of oral dexterity and why it is challenging! We will select a winner of Europe's most difficult utterances to then be featured on the EDL website.

Gada vārds

Katru gadu valstis visā Eiropā piedalās „Gada vārda” izvēlē. Lūk, vārdi no iepriekšējā gada!

Gada vārds

Katru gadu valstis visā Eiropā piedalās „Gada vārda” izvēlē. Cilvēki tiek aicināti izvēlēties vienu vārdu vai frāzi, kas atspoguļo gada sociālās, kultūras vai politiskās tendences un notikumus. Gada vārds kalpo kā kolektīvās apziņas un valdošo motīvu simbolisks attēlojums sabiedrībā. Tas uztver laika garu un kļūst par cilvēku kopīgās pieredzes, bažu un vēlmju atspoguļojumu.

Jaunums: Laras nākamais ceļojums – cauri Eiropas reģionālajām un mazākumtautību valodām

UPDATED VERSION AVAILABLE SOON - 7 new languages!

Lara dodas jaunā valodas ceļojumā – šajā ceļojumā Lara pēta reģionālo un mazākumtautību valodu valdzinošo pasauli un, būdama zinātkāra, viņa, protams, atklāj daudzus valodas dārgumus!

Famous quotes

We are all familiar with quotes from famous personalities in our own languages and cultures - but how many do we know from elsewhere in different languages? Here is a chance to discover the wisdom, truths (or half-truths!), creativity, humour and sometimes downright cynicism from a range of cultures and languages as well as their origins. Do you have a favourite? We would be delighted if you would also contribute some of your own!

Multilingvālā joku supergrāmata

Cik valodās var kādam likt smieties? Pēc ārkārtīgi stingra atlases procesa (iesaistot žūrijā tos, kurus nav viegli sasmīdināt!) mēs svinīgi iepazīstinām ar šīs iniciatīvas 2022. gada rezultātiem. Pēc smaga un cītīga darba mēs no vairāk nekā 700 iesniegtajiem jokiem (ne visi ir publicējami!), esam atlasījuši „Créme de la crème” jeb pašus labākos multinlingvālo joku darbus.

Which language is it?

We all know this situation: on a bus, in a café, on the street we hear two people talking in a foreign language. And we wonder what language it is. Let's do some training here and next time this happens to you you will easily recognise it!

Jautājumi, kurus tu nekad neuzdrīkstējies uzdot par valodām

For this year’s European Day of Languages we have produced a series of short video clips focusing on ‘Questions you never dared to ask about languages’ with experts covering a range of backgrounds and specialisations responding.
As the title suggests, the questions are ones that we might not wish to ask in front of an audience but, in fact, highlight important issues and address some popular misconceptions about languages and language learning. Do you have a question you would like to ask an expert?

To see subtitles on the videos, please activate this feature by clicking on ‘subtitles’ in the YouTube menu below the video. To change languages, click on the gear wheel and select subtitles>’automatically translate’ and select the desired language (the machine translation is provided by YouTube).

Slepenā aģenta valodu Izaicinājumu Aplikācija  2023 

Tu vari sacensties ar draugiem izaicinājumu paveikšanā, nosakot valstis un valodas, un piedaloties viktorīnās. Izaicinājumi sākas no vieglākiem, piemēram, noskaitīt no 1-10 trīs dažādās valodās minūtes laikā, līdz daudz sarežģītākiem, piemēram, “kopā ar draugu uzrakstiet vārdus dziesmai svešvalodā”.
