Thanks for the links! I'll have to check these out during my break today.
Edit: I've been curious about the mormon missionaries in this context as well actually. The ones I've bumped into are always from US and I'm surprised everytime that they can speak the language of the country they are in.
Holy shit that's some real effort! Interested to see if this helps you learn better! I mean it could have some real benefit since course books have a lot of listening-to-audio-and-keeping-up-with-written-transcript exercises.
And yeah I was super interested in how AI might help since language models are specifically trained with languages, but gave up on that awhile ago.
Tried it in my native tongue and was surprised it would suggest an old racist word as a synonym when asking for synonyms..
Mental breaks are good. Even better that you took one and still continue and get back into it after! Hope you are feeling more energetic this week :)
I have the same issue: lack of time lately. And having a real conversation is generally really hard and takes time, but I'm happy to hear that you are still sticking to it and seeing some progress!
It's all about persistance. Hope you can find someone to practice with at some point :)
Hope you feel better now!
I have to admit I've been incredibly lazy with language learning recently... I think I need another structured course to not let my progress fade.
I envy you guys who have the self discipline to long term self study.
You are doing amazing if English is your target language!
Damnit, this spell is effective 99% of the time. Did not prepare for the 1%.
Sounds really nice, glad you got to see so many places. I wish to visit Wales as well someday.
Thats a really nice list of visited countries! Hope you enjoyed some Saku in estonia!
Arabian nights is such a good yet fucked up read.
Also Aladdin was a dick, but so were all the other characters except the princess.
Made with drawio? ~~1000 points to gryffindor if so.~~ cool!
Edit: fine, edited. Guess I aged by 20 years just now with this comment.
