Summer time is just around the corner and with it there's a whole host of events to look forward to. This year is a particularly good one for sports fans with the European Football Championships taking place in June followed by Rio's Olympic Games in August.
Film buffs meanwhile will be looking forward to the Cannes and Venice Film Festivals while Europop lovers will be lapping up this year's Eurovision song contest in Sweden. So many events, so many new names and expressions to learn. But how to pronounce them all? To help our users, we've launched a new events section on Forvo which we hope will inform on how to pronounce names, places, words and expressions associated with all these top events. And as Forvo is a language learning site, we've also included language days, such as the International Day of Portuguese Language or International Francophonie Day.
As the year goes on we'll be adding to the section, but if there's an event you would like to see featured, or if you have any other suggestions for our new section please get in touch by emailing info@forvo.com or tweeting us @forvo. Check out the new section at forvo.com/events.
