China
overtook
Japan
as
the
world's
second-largest
economy
in
the
second
quarter,
capping
three
decades
of
spectacular
growth.
Japan
held
the
number
two
title
behind
the
United
States
for
more
than
40
years,
but
its
economy
hit
a
decade
of
stagnant
growth
in
the
1990s
and
has
not
regained
its
postwar
power.

Speaking
during
the

office
of
the
national

Kenya
Airways
chief
executive
officer
Titus
Naikuni
noted
that
it
was
difficult
for
Kenyans
seeking
visas
to
visit
the
country
as
there
was
no
Angolan
embassy
in
the
country.
At
the
same
time
there
is
no
Kenyan
embassy
in
Angola,
making
trade
between
the
two
countries
nearly
impossible.

This
website
is
a
collaborative
project
started
by
a
language
enthusiast
that
not
only
aims
to
help
language
learners,
but
also
to
"provide
a
window
into
the
culture
of
the
people
who
speak
those
languages."
So
how
does
the
site
accomplish
this
feat?
It
provides
interactive
language
lessons,
quizzes,
and
texts
that
allow
the
language
learner
to
hear
the
word
or
text
pronounced
by
fluent,
often
native,
speakers.
The
sound
quality
is
high,
and
by
simply
scrolling
over
any
of
the
pictures
in
categories
as
diverse
as
the
alphabet,
weather,
insects,
and
money,
visitors
will
hear
the
word
read
pronounced.
Thirteen
languages
are
offered,
including
"Vietnamese",
"Arabic",
"German",
"Hindi"
