And the some other like German, Latin or Chinese or Japanese. Most study Spanish, but language education in the US is a joke. So, don't feel bad about your english since most here cannot speak more than one language except for immigrants.

Too fucking true. Spanish or French were my only choices. Aesthetics are good, but fuck verb forms. I'd rather have learnt Dutch, Arabic, or German.
>>
>>68179550
I can't speak much for the US but in Australia pretty much the only bilingual people here are immigrants or children of immigrants. There's very little consistency with what is taught in schools though, for example I learned Japanese and Italian in primary school and in high school I learned French. I kind of wish there was more of an incentive for us to learn something else but there isn't such a need for it here because English is the main lingua franca. In most European countries English is taught throughout school so a huge proportion of people there are bilingual

Language education everywhere is a joke. Teachers don't understand that you can't teach a language like a formal subject and expect people to become fluent in it, or at least to want to actually learn it.

The only language learning I've ever enjoyed is self study.

Tbh forcing people to learn a language is useless.
This is such an endeavour that if you don't have interest by yourself its a loss of time.
>>
>>68180546
I agree with you tbqh. And forcing everyone to learn English is destroying cultures and other languages.

They should make English or any language an optional subject, rather than a compulsory subject.

it was until the XVII century spoken Brazil-wide, by everyone including european immigrants and african slaves, but after Marques de Pombal expelled the jesuits and the portuguese discovered gold in Minas Gerais, literally half Portugal came to Brazil, basically pushing the tupi language to be restrict only to the amazon and nowadays like 100K people speak it, despite most of the city names and tons of vocabulary being in tupi despite tons of people not knowing it. And since then every nationalist movement used tupi as a form of nationalism and shit. I wish we were bilingual like Paraguay

It might be possible, but I'm not sure that merely being interested in the characters will be enough to carry you through to your desired level of fluency. You'll obviously want to find some reading materials that will help you out.

Try and find an Anki deck, or something like it, to help you begin to work through the characters. You'll have quite a few before you can begin to get a grip on things. Lastly, please make sure to learn stroke order, as it really does help with looking things up, remembering characters, and learning new ones.

It depends
If I'm left alone I just won't find time to sitt on my own and spend 2 hours everyday to learn a language despite having the intention to do so. As a result, I personally prefer to pay someone to teach it to me for 4-6 hours/week. Having a tutor also helps me cut a few corners short as they give me shortcuts a correct my pronounciation right from the start, something a native speaker might not feel confortable doing

I've been learning French. I just started in January and I'm very happy with the progress I've made. I can read it and write it pretty well. I've read two books in the language and I can participate in conversations on /fr/. My listening comprehension is getting better. I'm estimating it's around 75-85% depending on what I'm watching. I'm still lagging behind in speaking though. I stopped taking classes because I had to transfer schools so I haven't had the opportunity to practice. I haven't tested my level yet. I'll do so after finals are over.

For like the first 8 months, pretty much. I was only going to school 2 days a week in the spring, so I had a lot of time to sink into it and even more so in the summer. I don't have as much time these days, but I still manage to get in about an hour a day.

>get in about an hour a day.
Doing what exactly? I think I've plateaued around B2, and I don't know what to do to get better.
>>
>>68208433
think of it like this, you can use ito/ta and /illo/lla to change the word to mean something else.
like for instances, el pobre, the poor one, add an ito and you get pobrecito, like little poor thing, or poor person, or like cigarro cigar but cigarrillo, cigarette or literally little cigar.
now for what the canadian anon said, if you look at it like you said, a little now, it means it is shorter , so in that case a smaller time span. so if someone said vamos a hacerlo ahora. that means we are going to do it right now, regularly, but if someone say, vamos a hacerlo ahorita, that means, we are going to do it right now, that little now, meaning the time is way passed doing it. My example is probably not good, but I've notice something in spanish dont translate well, and likewise, the same in english.

No problem anon. Sorry if my english went to shit at the end, but I noticed it does when I write too much. But anyway, use this site if you have issues:http://www.spanishdict.com/
it has a translator that is 10x better than google's shit and uses three. If you use it, split up the sentences into small fragments and then combine 'em.
Two, see if you can get this book in Poland or and is if it is in polish. It will save you a lot of trouble. I have other sites if you need them as well.

You might be able to directly import the list if it is formatted nicely. If not, you'd be better off just ignoring the list and adding whatever words you need to look up while reading to an anki deck, whether they are already in the list or not.

I don't understand why anyone would study vocabulary without spaced repetition.

>>68210474
>I don't understand why anyone would study vocabulary without spaced repetition.

Because it's extremely boring and will make you want to die rather than "studying" with anki.
Just read stuff and look up the words it's sufficient to keep words in your brain.

Keep in mind that we are comparing to looking through a huge list of vocab, not to reading.

Is Ukrainian the best option for learning a Slavic language if I want to understand and/or in future learn with ease rest of the Slavic languages?Or do east, west and south branches have gigantic differences between each other that it won't help much?

It only shows german and italians as the only noticable pop online. Chinks take the largest number over all.

Not sure about angering but they do confuse many because neither exist in Russian

No, the differences are too big.

i was with a lebanese and tunisian yesterday, and they were communating just fine. i asked them if they were conversing in FSA or their own dialects, and they assured me they did fine with their own dialects. I think this "arabs can't communicate" shit is just a foreigners' meme. I mean sure, a moroccan and an khaleeji may have some hardship because of lexical differences, but I think, if you learned Egyptian or Shami for example, you'd do fine everywhere.

I have huge trouble remembering vocabulary. Any good study tips? Also anyone got a list of useful Russian words? So I can start memorizing useful words whenever I wait for the bus and stuff.
>>
I'm thinking of learning German, I already started downloading all those torrents with learning material.

I'd learn Chink too, I'd like to live in Taiwan. Seems like a really nice place, and the only nice Chinese place.

I could've continued with French, it's what I studied at school. I still can read pretty fucking well but have no idea what I'm reading most of the time. Might be because our teacher forced good pronounciation and not so much comprehension.

I just finished reading the Little Prince in the original french and I'm pretty confuse.

>improve reading comprehension everyday
>listening practice still at ground zero
All I hear when people speak french is mumbling with decipherable sounds/words popping up randomly in it.

The way I see it there are so many words to learn before you reach fluency that you can't focus 100% on efficiency when it comes to learning new words. Sure knowing specific racing vocabulary before you can distinguish between a flower pot, a vase, or a lamp isn't efficient but regardless of order you have to learn a massive pile of words for all kinds of specific contexts and you may as well start with what actually interests you and get the rest later on, assuming you already have basic proficiency and grammar knowledge of course. Unless you're planning to go to France in the near future and really need more well rounded vocabulary knowledge just go nuts, much intermediate and advanced vocabulary will only ever be encountered in certain situations so don't feel obligated to learn a set of words that fit one context before you can learn another to fill a completely different context. You don't need to know how to describe a dinner meal or know how to instruct someone in fixing a car to know how to describe a pack of hyenas attacking a lion.

And I got so caught up in that I forgot my point and how it relates to your post:
You don't need drive to use your languages you do know for the things you like so you can probably find motivation for self study by involving yourself in things you like in the new language, that way it doesn't feel like work or study and you don't need anyone to push you toward it.

Learning Danish. Idk why.

Well at least by the end you'll almost know three languages(Danish, Swedish, Norwegian)

Not really. Maybe I'll get to read some Norwegian but I'm only getting exposed to Danish pronunciation, meaning that Norwegian and Swedish will still sound foreign to me.
