Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Kalamai is a traditional Chamorro corn / coconut pudding, sometimes referred to as coconut gelatin (though no gelatin is actually used). Original versions of kalamai called for masa harina, coconut milk, sugar, and water.  Subsequently, cornstarch was used to thicken the dessert.  Red or green food coloring may be used to color the kalamai, followed by a sprinkling of cinnamon on the surface.  A few recipes have added vanilla for additional flavoring.
The kalamai mixture, once thickened, is traditionally poured into a low rimmed tray to a half inch thickness.  This dessert is cooled, then sliced into squares.  The pudding-like version of kalamai has a very creamy, soft texture.  This pudding is served just as a piece of pie is served.  The gelatin-like recipe does yield a dessert that is firm like Jell-O.  It can be eaten with fingers.  Both versions of kalamai have a very distinct coconut and masa harina flavor.
