Wikipedia, An Excellent Source of Texts for Language Students

Wikipedia is an excellent source ot texts in a great variety of languages that language students can easily find to help them in their studies. I discovered this recently when I wanted to find some information about the composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

After entering +Mozart +Wikipedia in Google’s search engine, I immediately found a brief biography of Mozart. To the left of the article I also found a list of other articles on Mozart in a great variety of languages, many of them minority languages of Europe.

I then found similar articles entering, for example, +Beethoven +Wikipedia and +Newton +Wikipedia.

The articles that you can find this way can be an excellent introduction to these minor languages because they are about subjects that are well known to educated people--which makes it very easy to read them.

Not all of these articles are identical in their content. Some of them are more elaborate than others. But if you want to start studying, let’s say, Catalan or Asturian, you can easily find brief biographical texts for practicing reading in these languages and probably also texts on a variety of other subjects of common interest.

By exploring a variety of subjects of general interest in this way, you probably could collect a rather large anthology of practice texts for your studies in very little time.
