This is super cool, I might fork this and change the prompt to Danish, and maybe use MIstral or DeepSeek as it has better Danish capabilities. I moved to Denmark and just passed my A1 exam, so looking for more easy stuff to do.

DR.dk has `ligetil` which is simplified/easy danish news. So if I can find similar, I use it. I can probably have LLM do easy for me. Also Noospeak for daily newsletter in Danish.

LLM has been great for language learning and translation.

Chuck https://lite.cnn.com/ into whatever language you need it in.
Generally I would suggest starting with a source in the target language and translating it into a language you know.
Ooh, those simplified news sites/newsletters sound great, I'll have to see if I can find something similar for Norwegian!
Sweden has 'lätt svenska' (easy Swedish) radio and TV news - https://www.svtplay.se/nyheter-pa-latt-svenska - https://www.sverigesradio.se/radioswedenpalattsvenska

pretty useful for learning indeed!

Noospeak.com has Norwegian. It is the one I use.
Klar Tale (https://www.klartale.no/) has easy to read Norwegian News. It was recommended to us in the government-run language classes.
