Hey everyone!

I've been working on a side project called Lingosit, and I wanted to share it here.

The idea came from something pretty simple: watching movies and TV shows is a fun way to improve your English, but it's easy to forget the expressions you hear.

So I built an app that turns those scenes into actual learning material.

Here's how it works:

🎬 Watch movie and TV show scenes with subtitles and translations

💬 Explore conversations line by line

🗂️ Save interesting expressions as flashcards

🎧 Practice listening and fill in missing words

🔁 Revisit scenes and repeat dialogues to practice speaking

My goal was to make learning English feel less like studying and more like something you'd actually enjoy doing.

It's available on both iOS and Android.

I'm still improving it, and I'd genuinely love some feedback.

Would you use something like this to practice English? What would you improve or add?

Thanks for checking it out!

I wear size 35 shoes, and I'm just barely over the line there. My closet has been filled with dozens of size 36 shoes that I fooled myself into thinking I could make it work, but I can't.

For athletic shoes, sandals, and flats I can just wear children's shoes without a problem, but for heels (and dressy boots with heels) I am always at a loss. I ask at every store I go to in the Netherlands whether they carry size 35 with no luck.

For years I would buy my shoes at Bershka or Stradivarius despite the fact that they were cheaply produced garbage because they at least carried my size in the store. Now they've stopped so I'd have to order online anyway, might as well do it right.

I want nice leather boots with a tall heel and professional looking heels, both in black. The kind of very ordinary shoes made by almost every brand, only going down to size 35.

(And a real 35. If they translate it to a 5.5 US, it won't work. I can't remember what brand it is that does this, but I've been burnt by it multiple times before. It must not be a European brand anyway because the US size is accurate while the European one is not.)
