Is there even a noticeable difference? or does it matter on which language you want to learn?

Hola, oigan está es una pregunta parq la gente que estudia chino, que es lo más difícil de estudiar ese idioma, sobretodo al inicio y otra cosa, que meta o motivación tienen para aprender ese idioma?

What word makes that accent clue especially obvious?

I discovered comprehensible input a few years ago and it made the process of learning languages so fun that I’d rather consume more content and pushy linguistic abilities rather than sometimes do house chores or even hangout with friends. I just enjoy input so much and also have an obsessive personality generally

Of course, I still try focus on my work and maintain social relationships (both things not as much as before) but I feel like I derive more meaning out of learning languages than just about anything else. I’ve been thinking of ways to balance things more. Recently I thought of setting limits like only 1 hour comprehensible input a day and no more than an hour of reading in my target language

Is anyone else struggling with this? What are your strategies of balancing language study with other aspects of life?

Because spelling rules are apparently suggestions!

Asking out of curiosity, since I always saw English, especially for languages learners, a kind of gifted language, that, at least for me, didn't require study and kind of appeared in my brain

Or can it also be between the target language and any other language that you are fluent enough in?

ps: what are some conceptual equivalent in your language?

kind of a meta post, dont know if it's allowed

but like, no one in this sub seems to be using AI, i personally am against it (obviously talking about shtty gen AI here), so tell me WHY in the description of this subreddit it says "...and share AI insights" and then there are a dozen AI apps ads

Last week, when I tried saying the Arabic word for heart (qalb - heart), I pronounced it wrong so it sounded like “dog” (Kalb), and said “my dog is tired” at a dinner with Egyptians. They all laughed bcz they know I don't have a dog. I was so, so embarrassed. My friends are too nice to correct me. My language partner ghosted me, so had to get into apps.

At some point in my app lessons I just practiced saying “heart - qalb” fifty times, in multiples sessions and finally felt comfortable with how I said the word (My pronunciation score went from 35 to 55/100). Yesterday, I was able to use the sentence “my heart is tired.” ("قَلْبِي تَعْبَان" ) with the man who makes my shawarma (random, but he knows me well) and he understood me perfectly.

Looks like a small win, but it was a big one for me.

I've always been curious about this. If you speak more than one language, which one do you dream in? Does it change depending on where you are, who's in the dream, or which language you've been using most lately?

Me personally I always dream in the language I have been using the most lately even if it wasn’t my native language.

i never really thought about thid before, but theyre kinda different in different languages

in english for example you have

ah - "right"

oh - "right"

uh - basically means uhm

uh? - what?

but in italian it's

ah - right

eh? - what?

oh - rude angry exclamation
