  Today, I'm going to talk about random.

  Now, very often when I come up with a topic for my videos here,

• 00:06

  it's based on some random thought that I have.

• 00:09

  And I'm a great believer in the power of random.

• 00:12

  And I'm going to talk about how important random is in language learning with reference

• 01:01

  So, I put that on the internet, and lo and behold, I find some relative...

• 01:07

  Books that I might want to import, or I park that on YouTube

• 01:11

  and I find some interesting videos on YouTube that, again, I can import into Link to study.

• 01:17

  Similarly, I discovered Random again because I was interested in Sweden.
