APIC ( The Association for the Promotion of Intercomprehension)

Adults who speak a Romance Language, can learn in a very short period of time to UNDERSTAND one, two, three other Romance Languages as long as the goal is limited to: Understand (first understand the written texts) and NOT EXPRESS themselves (written or oral).  As a result of this introduction to understanding/comprehension, most people begin to gain confidence in their plurilingual ability, and can (re)begin the study of a language, this time with the intent to both understand andspeak it.

APIC’s goals:

- to support the general public’s awareness about plurilingualism 

- to support people in exploring languages, even those that have not been learned at school

- to best convey that everyone has plurilingual capacities that are ignored and can therefore go unused

- to demonstrate to those who think they are bad at learning languages, that they understand more languages than they are aware of

- to help give everyone the confidence in their ability to understand languages other than their own.
