What's the coolest Scandinavian language to learn if I already know German and want to learn a language on easy mode? Particularly if I'm interested in history and literature since if I ever go to Scandinavia they will refuse to speak to me in anything other than English.

Why is Ankiweb saying that the size of my collection is 0.14mb when I have literally no decks or cards? I deleted everything, deleted everything from the trash bin as well, checked media and checked the database, one-way synced to Ankiweb and even after all that it's still showing 0.14mb, my Anki is literally empty...
>>
>>202374024
Maybe the empty deck metadata is 0.14mb.
>>
>>202374079
Isn't 0.14mb huge for a deck, especially an empty one?
>>
>>202374206
140 KB? Not really
>>
>>202374206
maybe some left-over data, check media2 folder
but if it's clear, then yeah maybe it's huge. but it's not critical software, so why do you care?
>>
>>202374257
Anki says a 25000 card deck is 25mb, then 0.14mb would be 140 cards...
>>
>>202374360
Not really, 25000 card deck could really be 25.14 MB

I too think it's quite large, but again why do you care.
>>
>>202374286
Because it could make a difference if I ever reach the size limit, I'll be short 140 cards.

I found out there’s a huge archive of Soviet era films with English subs on YouTube so I’m gonna go through them. Pretty kino and will help me learn while being more enjoyable than watching the 101th comprehensible input slow talking or puppet show.

Also, I know this isn’t the place, but wtf do I do with my life? I’m learning a lang, but what are the odds I’ll ever be able to do anything with it? I’m basically a stemcel comp sci grad neet that can’t afford to do shit and work is hard to find, not that it pays well nowadays. Do I just ride it out and suffer?

not ver-a but vê-la
not "tudo" but todo

>Não tenho videojogo favorito mais. Ha muito tempo que parei com essa merda.
Ha -> Há
+ add an undefined article before videojogo to generalize it
"Não tenho mais um jogo favorito/Não tenho um jogo favorito mais"

>Sento que sou um pouco como velho me reclamando dos videojogos tanto...
sento = i sit
sinto = i feel
i'd also tell you to forget about the "como" before velho but if you are learning pt-pt then it's fine because they say it like that

Watch telenovelas bro. Just put the subtitles on. Do this forever. I learned English as a child that way.

Alternatively buy a notebook and pen and write. It doesn’t matter what lesson it is just write and never look back that’s how you start studying.
>>
>>202378269
Saying "me siento un poco un boomer" might sound okay in a colloquial speaking.

Perhaps I could also say "me siento boomer (subst.) un poco" to avoid some confusion.

Bueno, con esa bandera he vivido toda mi vida y el español es mi lengua nativa. lol

I know most of you don’t like Mexico, but you can watch this and just WRITE what’s being said. You can’t get enough of this even when you are at a level where you can just watch with subtitles

>>202378462
I am also a lazy, ADHD riddled undisciplined piece of shit. I only manage to get good at languages by doing everything I do to waste time in my TL. Watch spanish brainrot, watch spanish shitty TV instead of english. You already know the formats, you already know the formulas, so you don't even need to understand everything correctly at first. You just need the passive exposure.

I was "el gato es negro" level 'til I watched a shit ton of spanish reels and shitty telenovelas like la rosa de guadalupe and caso cerrado and then I had enough vocab to go chat with random kids online for a couple months before a real immersion irl, where I learned how to speak properly. Adapt this method to whatever your ADHD-riddled brain compels you to waste time with.

Ninguna en especial, solo daba un vistazo en /int/. Por ahora me interesa empezar a aprender japonés y tal vez ahora aprenda algo del hilo respectivo.

¿Y tú aprendes otro idioma además de español y portugués? ¿Qué tal tu experiencia con las similitudes?
>>
>>202379024
Ah que bueno, ojalá te quedes por aquí y logres tus metas pe

Mi idioma nativo es francés, entonces aprender el español ha sido muy fácil. Pero me parece que lo que funcionó la primera vez ya no da, especialmente porque el portugués es tan similar al español. Antes las similitudes me ayudaron, y ya que mi idioma nativo ya es bien cristalizado en mi cerebro no se podía confundir uno con el otro. El español se quedaba en su propria cajita mental y ya. Pero ahora que toca hacer una nueva cajita, el cerebro se confunde caleta las entre los dos idiomas que ningún ya se ha cristalizado totalmente. No hace daño a mi español ya que llevo muchos años hablándolo, pero confiar en que algo si se puede decir en portugués o si es portuñol es muy difícil para mi. A veces resulta que si sabia como decir algo, pero no confié en que si existía (me pasó recientemente con "hacer algo al respeto / fazer algo ao respeito")

At the begging of June my paid Spanish courses ended, it was pretty nice, the teacher was a Mexican girl living in Bratislava, I even bumped to her once while walking in the old town and we had a coffee. During the 25 clases I had, some beginner stuff sticked on me and I can understand basic stuff, make out what Spanish songs are about, and sometimes understand some parts of conversations. I didn’t take any courses during summer as I was busy. Due to financial reasons I can’t go to the courses anymore but I’d still like to learn Spanish but how do I do it alone? How can I be my own teacher? How do I get practice material and know in which order I should learn various things and concepts?

I now have a distinct memory of my TL appearing in my dreams.
A girl said a sentence (grammatically correct) with a strong slavic accent. It's odd too because I watch podcast italiano and he speaks russian (but never in his videos), so I think my mind just wanted to know what a Russian-Italian accent would sound like.

Is anyone else here having voice conversations with AI? I've been using character.ai to practise my Spanish skills but my pronunciation is so bad the software doesn't understand what I'm saying half the time. I guess that's just more reason to improve my pronunciation. The problem is the ai kinda sucks compared to something like chatgpt which is far from perfect to begin with, but the ai voices are pretty good

I wouldn't be so sure, the demand for people who speak foreign languages is going down. I recently heard from two forty-year-old normies that they don't need to speak english because when they get an email or something, they click on three dots and it translates the text to polish. When I heard that, it hit me like a ton of bricks that my language skills are probably not going to help me as much as I thought.
I don't regret it or anything, the access to the cultural wealth that certain languages give you (like english, german, french) is enough of a reason for me to learn them, but Im not so sure that it will help me in today's economy.

If what you said is any indication, people are going to rely on translation tools more rather than actually learning languages. Which means in situations where those tools aren't available, those of us who have the language skills will be in demand.

You could be right, but imo it's better to focus on the positives. It motivates me to think that my TLs could be useful in my job even though that's not the reason I'm learning them.

im a bit independent now, maybe i can redeem myself if i come back here with at least some kind of proficiency in russian.
im going to study russian every day and in time i should be able to translate the challenges.
right now i am going to review the alphabet and extensively review it, make flashcards in anki and then start urok 1 (lesson 1)
the problem is that i learned the whole of the cyrillic alphabet in 1 hour but i still need 3-5 seconds to spell out a Russian word before I can read it
also there are also 3-4 letters that I keep forgetting/misspelling
>>
>>202407564
No one call tell you the perfect structure and organization. It depends on your situation and you have to find what works best for you.
>I am confident that I can actually pull this off, if I somehow organize myself better.
You are putting your success behind conditions and as a result you are subconsciously making it harder for yourself.
Treat it as something you are certain about instead.
Another problem is you are adding a gorillion future thoughts to your goal. You worry too much and even if you drop Russian (assuming you start it) in a few months, you still learned more than in the last 5 years.

Just do anki reps on the toilet or something.

how much chinese do I need to know to get a chinese girlfriend?

>>202408216
Russian is the only "foreign" language aside from English that I always come across.
So I am sticking with it for at least 3 years before I add a new one.
I calculated the time it takes to finish the course I am taking and it has 560 hours worth of content.
At 1 hour a day, that's going to be at least 1.5 years, but knowing myself it's going to take 2-3 years.

>>202408237
I knew about 300 but you could probably get by with 0

I’m the American from yesterday posting here everyday to make friends. Still learning Russian, though I had a hiccup the past like 4 days where I slacked, but I attribute it to I got sick and needed deep rest.

I will use continue with comprehensible input as I have been for some time, and also sue the archive of Soviet films with eng subs to supplement with more enjoyable content.

Today, while doom scrolling here, I saw a bunda webm with Cyrillic title and translated it as soon as I saw it (it said “made for black men” but whatever). I wouldn’t have been able to do when I started

>>202408447
One more question, the more I study Russian the more I realize it's the [only] foreign TL that I want to learn, maintain, and improve.
Let's say I reach B2 in Russian, how would I maintain it? And it being the only foreign language next to English, it wouldn't be so hard and time consuming? Especially not as hard as those polyglots who speak 12 languages?
>>
>>202407360
>Any tips on how to establish a balanced language learning routine?
I don't care about anything else you've said here. Just pick something you can see yourself putting thousands of hours into out of sheer motivation and determination.
>>202408550
If I could study 5000 hours a day I'd love to. It's up to you how you spend your free time. Studying a foreign language is better than what 90% of people are doing.

Maintaining a language is pretty easy once you are past intermediate level.

Ich zocke nicht
Meine (nicht existierende) Freundin spielt Überwachung.
Ich denke, ich werde mein Dampfkonto löschen.

Meine Mutter ist süchtig nach Handyspielen. Ich kann es nicht ausstehen, ihr beim Spielen von Süßigkeitszerdrücken zuzusehen.
Meine Freundin verspielt ihre Glanzzeit, indem sie zockt. Wenn es nach mir ginge, würde sie ihre Zeit mit etwas produktiverem verbringen.
Dieser Tage hab ich kein Lieblingsspiel. Mit dem Daddeln hab ich Gott sei dank vor langer Zeit Schluss gemacht.

Zocken ist eine der primären Ursachen für den weltweiten besorgniserregenden Anstieg von ADHS unter Jugendlichen. Es wird höchste Zeit, dass unsere regierenden Körperschaften endlich dagegen durchgreifen.
Ich fühle mich ein bisschen wie ein verdammter Bühmer, wenn ich mich über Videospiele beschwere, aber ich kann mir das unheilvolles Gefühl nicht verkneifen, dass unsere Gesellschaft derzeit rasant den Bach runtergeht. Ich könnte vielleicht die anderen Weise in denen unsere Gesellschaft auf ungefesselte Genusssucht zukommt besprechen, aber am Ende des Tages bin ich ein bloßes Mitglied der geistig behinderten Massen.

I find their literature fascinating when I first read it and want to access the OG content, and the broad quantity of people that speak it means I can go exploring vast swaths of land (someday, if I get the money and the ziggy chimp out ends) with cool people. Also, I’ve been a lonely inkwell my whole life and I hear Slavs are fun drunks so I can go and have crazy adventures with the boys.

Plus it unlocks other Slavic languages on discount so if I ever wanna go further I can, if I knew a few words in polish, would you guys share drinks with me and get into Slav hooligan shenanigans?
>>
Linguno is invaluable if you're learning one of the languages it offers. It's basically conjugation anki. It's so easy to learn how to conjugate verbs in the Romance languages this way. You need to use it if you're learning a Romance language or German. It also has spaced repetition decks of around 5000 or so words with pictures, and you type in the word which I feel makes it stick more.

Shame it doesn't cover the usage of prepositions and other things. Very useful site though.

Lmao, what even was the point of learning 4k+ words and watching hundreds of hours of video, they just test you on grammar? I tried like 3 separate tests and they were all like this, it's not reading comprehension or anything but stupid grammar shit.

I don't see it happening, the demand will stay about as low as before. Now they'll need professional proofreaders. If it was a company that needed people who knew multiple languages they'll still need them, if the company didn't need them before they won't now, overall it changes very little when you're talking professional business stuff.

1. Can anyone recommend a 30-day French challenge? Paid is fine, just kind of looking for anything to jump-start my learning, but preferably something where I have to speak in Zoom and have graded and timed writing tasks.

2. Speaking of the latter, is there a website that offers that in a broader sense? I remember one I used to pay for some years ago for German but it appears to be offline now. I'd like to write little poems and journal entries or assigned tasks like writing prompts, then get grading and feedback from native speakers.

Heutzutage ist das immer noch Zukunftsmusik aber halt das für durchaus machbar in ein paar Jahren. Als ich mit dem Deutschlernen angefangen habe waren mir einige deutsche Autoren schon bewusst, aber mir mangelt es an Vertrautheit mit der französischen Literaturtradition außer Camus.

Guys! Help, I can't stop checking up every word I don't know the translation of. Can't stop translating in my mind, that's frustrating. But only happens when I'm reading in English, reading in French is quite enjoyable, although I've got much smaller vocabulary in the latter.

In einem Jahr könntest du einen neuen Englischspachlerausweis bei der entsprechenden Behörde beantragen.

(Ich kenne mich ehrlich gesagt mit der englischen Grammatik nicht so gut aus, aber ironischerweise bin ich mir ziemlich sicher davon, dass deinem Satz auch ein Komma fehlt, und zwar vor dem und. Wenn ich mich da nicht irre, erfordert das ein Komma aufgrund der Tatsache dass, das und da zwei unabhängige Satzglieder verbindet. "Du vergaß dabei ein Komma" könnte als eigenständiger Satz funktionieren. Wie schon gesagt könnte ich dabei falschliegen und am Ende des Tages würden die meisten englischen muttersprachler das beim ungezwungenen Online-Posten einfach fallen lassen.

Noch dazu und als nur anliegend relevante Frage: wie geläufig ist das Wort Beistrich im Vergleich zu Komma. Bin vor kurzem darauf gestoßen. Kommt mir eher selten vor.

what are you guys doing to study your TL? and what did you do while you were still a beginner/intermediate?
>>
>>202438753
see the picrel book >>202437190
also I buy a grammar book + frequency deck

I'll be happy if I can become fluent in French and German

Just find native content that balances your interest with the difficulty. There's lighter fiction like Harry Potter and other translated books from English that can bridge the gap before you jump into real literature. Lighthearted comedy movies, children's cartoons, sitcoms etc.

Try some of these:

Nah I don’t want to do the purely comprehensible-input route, I want to be able to measure my progress with CEFR levels and make sure I’m getting the core language concepts covered. What you just mentioned will teach me the word for “sneak” before I know “walk” etc.
>>
>>202442098
this is not an issue if you learn "walk" eventually
>>
>>202441897
Glad you dropped my TLs, Jordie. I approve of your Russian adventure.
>>
>>202442098
what you need to do is find/download a collection of children's books, something like http://xn--hu1b40go5ck8x.com/

Interesting, if a little disappointing. There are lots of friendly poles near where I live so I was hoping they could graduate me from shut in to normie.

Yesterday, I watched part of “Moscow doesn’t believe in tears”, only picked up on bits and pieces but I’ll keep making the effort as I have been for some time. There’s no shortage of c9mprehensivle input it seems, but I might need to watch more puppet shows before I can do full length films sans subtitles.

You guys are my frens

Nah I have a collection of graded readers but I still want to test my recall and conversation skills so reading alone isn’t gonna cut it.
I got a year of JumpSpeak for $69 and that’s very conversational, no grammar instruction just listening, reading and choosing the correct answer. I find it very helpful if I combine it with a notebook for writing down useful phrases/words.

is this all you do? i've only recently been coming to these lang threads but every single time i have i've seen your goofy 2bit ass posting about learning all these languages, seemingly settling with one and then 2 lang threads over you're talking about learning 2 different languages at the same time. every time i see your godforsaken flag i know that it could only be one indecisive bastard with it, that you're going to ask questions which you've asked before, and you're going to get the same answers you've received before.

get your russian books, videos, music and all other input you need, and only post again once you're willing to do it all in russian.

>>202442098
walk is more common than sneak (except in Hebrew) so the natural SRS of the language input will teach it quicker.

itll build the framework of the language, then a bit of immersion will allow you to understand it pretty quick. Similar thing happened with Quebecois for me.

I have to admit that every time I see the kanji 襪 I get aroused. Since the first time I saw it I've been getting aroused by the sight of it. This is most likely because of the meaning of the word, stockings. When I see the kanji my body immediately starts imagining a half naked anime girl wearing thigh highs, all by itself.

In the original text we're told that there are salmon rivers up in the hills and that a man sends his men up to these rivers to do fishing
In the translation we're told that there are rivers up in the hills and that a man sends his men up to these rivers to fish for salmon
Translations are a mistake, if you didn't read the original you'd think these were generic rivers and not salmon rivers
They didn't specifically target salmon, they just went fishing and because they're salmon rivers they caught salmon

I genuinely enjoy Assimil more
>>
>>202469642
"Learning a language with the Assimil method is a two-stage process, namely the impregnation phase (lessons 1 to 49) and the activation phase (lesson 50 onwards)."
Is this the entire method that they use? also is the book that you buy physical or an e-book?
>>
>>202469910
I have physical copies of some languages and digital copies of others. The most important thing is the audio files though. I listen to the audio on repeat on my way to work and check my knowledge and fill in any gaps with the text book.

Ok I just thought you meant you were looking for apps to help with the comprehensible input route. Tbh I'm not big on CI myself and I do think there's sense in taking an approach where you have a clearer measure of your progress but I can't really recommend anything like this because my idea of measuring my progress is being able to read or listen to more difficult things. If you want to learn concepts more directly I would unironically recommend reading a complete grammar book but not with the intention of learning every single thing as you go along. Just decide to read at a certain pace and learn what you can learn within the time available to you. The important thing is to learn something that you wouldn't have learnt through exposure to the language.
If you want to learn walk before sneak you start easy and work your way up

You don't have to write 'Ego' every time. Latin is pro-drop.
