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
=======
Principense Creole is a minority Portuguese-based creole language spoken in a community of some four thousand people in São Tomé and Príncipe, specifically on the island of Príncipe. It is also called by its native speakers as lunguyê creole ("creole of the island"). There are two Portuguese-based creoles on the island of São Tomé, Angolar Creole and Forro Creole, according to a 1989 study. Today, younger generations of São Toméans are not likely to speak Principense, which has led to its fast decline and moribund status. It is mostly spoken by the elderly (the Ethnologue entry lists 200 native speakers in total), while most of the island's community speaks noncreolized Portuguese; some also speak another, closely related creole language, Forro Creole.
Principense Creole presents many similarities with the Forro Creole on São Tomé and may be regarded as a Forro dialect. Like Forro, it is a creole language based on Portuguese with substrates of Bantu and Kwa.
