Spanish English

1918, London. Twenty-year-old Emily Burdon has been training as a nurse at St. Marylebone Infirmary, learning on the job as she tends to patients from the crowded poorhouses that ring the hospital as well as wounded soldiers returning from the war.

But when the deadly Spanish Flu arrives in London on the heels of the war, Emily’s faith and courage are put to the test.

That’s boring, and to be honest, it’s not a great way to learn the language (not to mention that they don’t always talk about things that you might encounter in your daily life, for example, a judgmental ghost, being the last man on Earth, or maybe find that the love of your life has been stolen).

When you're learning a new language, a cognate is an easy word to remember because it looks and means the same thing as a word you already know.
