Post every time. No one else is learning. Been learning Italian for two years. Completed Rosetta Stone and still practice on duolingo. Watch YouTube for Italian series.

I want to generate an audio, and two sentence based off a given word (target). I can create this part easily but I don't know the best place to import it.

Anki looks horribly complex desu, but I know I can control the audio playback.

Does anyone know of anything like Anki, that's free, that I can import a bunch of shit into easily without having to deal with a bloated app?

duolingo is really good, but they never manage to get that czech ready. and hungarian is too weird.

Lol not like you'ill ever need to use it.
Same with the weird subjunctives, when was the last time you needed to use
>Il était important que j'en conusse

Exactly, never

I'm learning Norwegian just because it is easier than Swedish. In future I will probably try Dutch and use it to move into learning German.

I have read comic books and Wikipedia in Norwegian nearly every day to learn new words.

The imperfect subjunctive is aesthetic as fuck, too bad it's dead.

Well Corean is in theory the easier language to learn for someone from the west due to Hangul. But if you think you're up for learning Kana (which is the easy part) and then learning kanji and all the radicals that form them then I'd say Japanese
>>
>>73749031
How hard would be learning all japanese alphabets?
I've seen how hangul works and it's pretty easy

I was thinking of getting a better grasp of Latin. I know the basics but nothing too complex. Got any good resources or should I ask /his/ instead?

Dutch and Afrikaans are basically the same.

Well learning all the Kanji is a chore, and you don't really learn "a kanji".

If you want more info check the /djt/ or /jt/ here on /int/. Do note though that /djt/ basically got kicked from /a/ so some people might still be a bit bitter about that (just read the OP resources)
>>
>>73737821
Spanish mainly. And German for fun.

Hey turkanon, what do think about your referendum?

De tot le homines, le scientistas son, in general, le individualistas le plus obstinat e refractori del mundo, comunmente inofensive ma capace de persequere lor fines con le intensitat fanatic de un mania. Si non era assi, iles non vel jamais submitere se al longe e intense processo educational requisit a facere un scientista.

Ubi e como labora le scientistas? Un minoritat bastante parve - geologos, meteorologos, biologos, archeologos, et cetera - va via in expeditiones inter le quales iles labora in lor oficios o instrue in scolas e universitates. Le resto labora in laboratorios governamental o privat. Le privates son los de companias manufacturari, de universitates, e de altere institutiones como museos e centros medical, e de alcun individuos ben proviste.

Laboratorios son rarmente tan net e lucente como ilos apare in le cinemas re scientistas nobile. In su vice ilos son incombrat de pecias de cablo electric, de tubaje e vitraje, de suportos, de lunches de mecanicos e vetule magazines tecnic, de cinerieras facte de parafernales scientific disjectat, et cetera.

In multe sortas de labor ha un rude corelation inter le general habitos de labor de un homine - netitat, agradabilitat, punctualitat, et cetera - e le merito de su labor. Ma al scientistas isto non se aplica. Alcun bonissime scientistas son personas disordinat qui seque nul horario regular e qui grunni a totos. Es necessari un bon administrator pro ben evaluar le merito del homines sub il e pro transvider tal cosas superficial como lor disnetitat de aparentia o lor caracter disagradabile.

Learning the shit out of Russian.

For all of you learning Russian out there, I have found the best place to do so. This is no memrise, no duolingo. This is THE shit. Why you might ask? You do everything that you'd do in a class. No games, no nothing. A lot of exercises. I spent hours just working on my vocalization. Everything is free, from A1 to C2.

Looks interesting anon, ill check it out properly tomorrow. But god it annoys me when language learning sites put part of the site in the language they are teaching.
>>
>>73770397
Yeah unfortunately they don't really give a shit about foreign learners. This is paid by Russian tax payers, it's basically for the children of the parents that are now living not in Russia imo. But well, it really helps out. With Yandex Translate open, you'll do alright.
>>
What is the best way to learn english grammar?
>>
>>73770597
Repetition, like everything. Grammar I'd probably just grind the shit out of multiple answer questions from some random websites (sorry dunno where)

Grammar?
Read.

My Chinese friend listened to Beck albums to really get a feel for the language. His lyrics are nonsense but the enunciation and speaking cadence helped. *shrug*

Fuck me honestly I'm hungarian, we're supposed to pronounce it as /r/ but I can't and instead do a french r from my throat which I make to sound exactly the same as the hungarian one, but when there are consonant clusters or long rs I fail and everybody can see my shitty rs.
What can I do anons?

Hey, Portugese bro, how is this for more vocab?
My biggest problem with Russian thus far is vocabulary. Been learning about a year, and I understand almost all grammar, but I still get shit on by sheer weight of vocab when I try to read anything harder than a news article.

>>73781518
No spaces between words trigger me.

memorigilo, interlingua estas malsupera al esperanto

How do I get over the embarrassment of not being perfect? I'm studying Japanese (and am currently here just on a vacation) but currently can't really use what I know on the basis of being afraid to fuck up or being treated like a dancing monkey by others.
>>
>>73790343

Well you're on vacation, so it's permissable to be slightly drunk at all times
>>
>>73790122
yeah, but esperanto is gay.

For vocab use Memrise, best thing I used.
