Yes indeed!


Was learning a couple, but had to take a step back based on life(went through some traumatic experiences and stopped).

My family/heritage languages are Spanish, English, Portuguese(still working on learning this language, but it's pretty easy since I know Spanish & English), & French (though my French sucks, but I need to learn it to communicate to family who don't speak Spanish or English).


My favourite type of languages to learn are either from the Austronesian branch or Asiatic...pretty much (most) Asian languages and Pacific Islander languages.

I've studied Mandarin(Chinese), Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese, Malay, Indonesian, Palau, Pohnpei, Hawaiian, Samoan, Danish, Czech, Arabic, and a few more just interchange sometimes depending on what I'm interested in at the moment...


I want to focus on Mandarin & Japanese tbh.

My son has pacific islander roots from his father(whom I separated from due to physical & verbal abuse), so some on that list is so I can learn the language to pass down to son, his dad doesn't know the languages that his parents know...and his dad is no longer in the picture.


I use many different apps & websites to learn as well:


Language Exchange: HelloTalk, Tandem, iTalki, Speakly, & Bilinguë

Grammar & Spelling Corrections (along with Culture Questions): HiNative & Lang8(idk if this still exists, I moved to HiNative)

Mostly Grammar Help(and moving up language level proficiency): Busuu

Mostly Vocab: Drops, Babble, Hello Chinese, Duolingo, Mémorisé, & Lingo Deer.


I use multiple different dictionaries as well, depending on what language I'm targeting for the moment.


I'm testing out some new apps here soon.

Hi! I’m new here, but I really love language and I’m attempting to learn Spanish. I’ve been going through a crazy time so it’s been difficult to find passion in it enough to peruse it. Besides that depressing stuff, my goal is to learn at least three languages in my life time: Spanish, Portuguese, and maybe Japanese.

I am planning to learn Spanish and French after a few years (After i atleast become intermediate level with Japanese)

I've been learning German for 2 years and really enjoying it...although it is challenging.

I enjoy learning. Period.

I particularly like languages though.

I’m somewhat passable in a few and know bits and pieces of others.

I do! Learning a new language is a joyous (but sometimes lowkey stressful lol) activity that ultimately helps me connect with others. (And that's why it brings me joy)
