Chat can help to learn different language (especially in learning English)

What's chat?

Chat is online conversations in which you are immediately able to send messages back and forth to one another.

What's the benefit of chat for learning English?

While you chat, by either writing or speaking, you're practicing that language. Your brain is the whole time absorbing and filing it away (even if you don’t notice at first) new data, like nuances of sounds, new vocabulary, etc.

Often you'll hear people say, "I was chatting last night to someone from [this state.]" Other times you'll hear them say "I was chatting to someone from [this country.]" Chances are they weren't talking about the telephone, which can cost a few cents every minute. They were probably talking about online chat. Online chat doesn't cost anything extra, as long as you have an Internet connection.
