Offer to learners of German

Hi, to whom it may concern…

I like the import function at lingq very much, it is one of those things that make this site special. Using your lesson feed, as you know you can easily import newspaper articles as lessons. As nice as it is, these articles lack the audio part.
I am a native speaker of German, and I can help you there. If you tell me via pm here or to my skype handle which article you want an audio for, I am going to create the audio file and share it with you via dropbox or google docs. These texts are copyright protected. Therefore your lesson will have to be set on private, of course. Using the audio for yourself is okay, forwarding it to other users is NOT okay, though. When you have downloaded the audio file, you can add it to the lesson in the “edit lesson” module.

I asked Mark if the offer is legally okay from his point of view, he approved of the scheme.

My offer is based on good will, please treat it as such. There will be waiting times, and I cannot guarantee helping everyone if demand should be high (which is not very likely).
I tried importing some newspaper articles in the German section, and there were some that I couldn’t import. If such a thing may happen, you will have to send me the article text via pm. too.

Nice new week to all :slight_smile:
