      How are you learning so many languages? Is it even possible? I hope this doesn’t come off as sarcastic or anything, it’s a genuine question.

        Shalom alehem kerido Comrade ❤️

        Ok let me explain .

        1. I study by learning the syntax , phonology , grammar and then compering them .

        2. I use various dictionaries only , not translators .

        3. I have a lot of very difficult ways and methods on learning and studying the languages , for me it’s easy .

        4. Keep studying all of them without rest .

        5. Always repeat everything you have learned and then go study more new vocabulary of those languages and keep doing it .

        6. Learn the basics of how such language/s works and then when you learn the basics move on to the most difficult parts before that you have to learn how it works from grammar , syntax , phonology and all of that and then again move on and keep doing the other stuff like making sentences remembering word order and other things .

        Espero ke ésto sea de buena ayuda para ti .

              No, sorry, I do not. What language is this?

              And don’t worry, you weren’t bothering at all. Always a pleasure to have a chat.

                The language that i used it’s called לאדינו or גﬞודﬞיאו־איספאנייול

                And the word that i used translates to :

                “where are you from ?”

                  I’m from Israel. Of course I hope Palestine will be liberated one day and Israel will cease to exist.

                  Where are you from?

        I’ve always had a thing for languages. I can also understand and read Spanish, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian and Italian.

        Part of it is just me easily learning new languages. Part of it is travel.

        But also, Dutch school system has a big focus on German and some focus on French as they are big trading partners and many business opportunities come frome these countries. So besides mandatory English for six years you also get mandatory French and German for two and an optional extra four years if you want to. I chose to learn German and drop French but ever since I moved to Belgium two years ago I picked up French again. I now am the go to guy for German speaking people at my place of work and half the country speaks French so I use it a lot as well.

    Mandarin because if I ever get a real chance I’d do whatever I could to try and move to China and get out of the cesspit that is the West.

        Es ist erst ein Monat vergangen, ich weiß nichts

        Und warum Deutsch?

        To prepare for Russian, and later Mandarin

        Klingt nach einer interessanten Kombination mit Englisch und Portugiesisch lol

        The more the merrier! To know a language is to know a whole universe. If you know French, you may have more access to literature and information on several African countries, and you’ll have even deeper information if you know Swahili

      That’s a lot! I would assume a lot of vocabulary to overlap between the Slavic languages, although I don’t know how similar they are.

      I have question :

      But is the other languages that you have mentioned are they’re similar ? or not .

      Like russian and serbian ?

      Macedonian and Bosnian ?

      Do they share the same words , phrases vocabularies or they are totally different from one another ? .

      ( Just asking 😁 )

    I’m learning Russian on and off every few months or so bc I’m kinda busy lately. My brother wants to learn Irish Gaelic, my Dad is learning French and a few friends know German. I have people asking me to learn this or that language and I’d love to be multilingual but Id rather learn Russian well before learning new languages

    I speak English and Hebrew fluently. Currently trying to learn Russian, although I’m rather slow at it and unfortunately haven’t made much progress.

    If I get around to it, I would probably be interested in learning more languages. Arabic, Spanish and Mandarin sound the most appealing to me.

  • I’m learning Spanish, because it’s spoken by a shitload of countries, and also in case I ever get the opportunity to move to Cuba or something
    I’d like to learn Chinese but my brain isn’t very good

        From what I know, pinyin is pretty standard for input nowadays so you don’t need a special keyboard. With pinyin you also don’t have to remember how to draw the characters. However, even just learning to recognize the characters takes some time. I find it’s a lot more challenging than other languages I’ve tried learning.
