Get to Know the Armenian language and Armenian culture
The Armenian language is the official language of Armenia, and is spoken by an estimated 5 to 7 million people worldwide - among a diaspora spanning all six inhabited continents.
Though an Indo-European language, Armenian is the only member of its particular branch of the Indo-European family.
It also has its own writing system - the Armenian alphabet - created in 405 CE by Mesrop Mashtots. In the Armenian alphabet, ‘Armenian’ is written հայերեն (hayeren).

All of the resources mentioned on the website and in the How to Learn Languages guides are resources I believe in. They're resources I've either found useful learning languages, or have researched for the How to Learn Languages website and guides. The overwhelming majority of these resources are not affiliate links.
I only agree to affiliate links for resources I genuinely believe in. By having affiliate links for resources I believe in, I hope this can reduce the cost of paid resources for you, whilst also helping me to continue working on books, videos, documentaries, and How to Learn Languages.
If you buy books linked in How to Learn Languages guides, on my websites, or social media channels, I’ll earn a commission from Bookshop.org, whose fees support independent bookshops. Any books that aren’t available from Bookshop.org have been linked to their relevant page on Goodreads.
This italki link is also an affiliate link. If you pay for your first lesson on italki using this link, you’ll receive $10 italki credits, and I’ll earn a commission.
Although the series aims to show anyone how to learn languages for free, it’s true that paid resources often help save time - both in terms of preparation and organisation. By having affiliate links for resources I believe in, I hope this can reduce the cost of paid resources for you, whilst also helping to make the development of more How to Learn Languages guides possible.
Regardless of whether you use the affiliate links, thank you so much for your support. I really appreciate it.

Do you make videos or resources for learning a specific language? Feel free to get in touch so I can add links to your work on the relevant Get to Know page for that language, or in the relevant How to Learn Languages guide.
As well as helping people to learn languages, encouraging linguistic diversity, and raising awareness for the rights of indigenous peoples, I hope How to Learn Languages will also help to grow the audiences of anyone creating resources for learning languages.
