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.

It is agreed that the word derives from the word alchemy, which is a European one, derived from kimiya (كيمياء) and alchemy al-kīmiyāʾ (الكيمياء). The Arabic term is derived from the Ancient Greek χημία khēmia or χημεία khēmeia. However, the ultimate origin of the root word, chem, is uncertain.According to the Oxford English Dictionary, al-kīmiyāʾ is derived from χημία, which is derived from the ancient Egyptian name of Egypt (khem or khm, khame, or khmi, meaning "blackness" Therefore, alchemy is the "Black Art". However, it is also possible that al-kīmiyāʾ derived from χημεία, meaning "cast together".
