Subject: New Language Acquisition Research Assistant Tool: Learn Any Language


Learn Any Language (LearnAnyLanguage.com) is a free
research-assistance platform designed to make research in
second-language acquisition and language learning more accessible to
researchers, educators, and learners.
The platform helps users explore questions related to language
acquisition by identifying relevant peer-reviewed publications and
generating accessible research summaries that include citations,
bibliographic information, and discussion of methodological
limitations.
The aim is not to replace original academic publications, but to
improve access to and understanding of existing research. Users are
encouraged to consult and cite the original publications.
Learn Any Language is being developed with a strong emphasis on
copyright compliance. The platform only incorporates publications that
are legally available for reuse, openly accessible, or for which
explicit permission has been obtained from copyright holders. No
paywalled publications are redistributed without permission.
We are currently inviting linguists and language acquisition
researchers to contribute information about their own publications.
Researchers can suggest works they would like included, after which we
can contact the relevant publisher or rights holder to explore whether
permission can be granted for inclusion. Authors who have retained
rights, published open-access work, or have publisher approval are
especially encouraged to participate.
By creating a bridge between linguistic research and language
learners, Learn Any Language aims to support evidence-based language
education while respecting academic publishing standards.
