TitleUse Google Advanced Search for Foreign Language Constructions
Body
A recent discussion on the FLTEACH listserv about favorite teachers' Web sites received many responses. Here is one you might not have thought of.

----

My favorite website is Google.com--Advanced Search. You can click on Google in various languages to verify words, grammatical constructions, cultural items, etc. For example, if you want to know if "Que pena que...." is followed by the subjunctive in Portuguese, simply go to Advanced Search, choose Portuguese from the language menu, set the hits to "100" and type "Que pena que" in the box "exact phrase." You will then come up with a whole series of sentences with "Que pena que..." and you can quickly see different verbs that complete this thought.
