I’m learning French, when I remember to. I did not put too much effort into it until now, because I understand a lot from articles, conversations, youtube videos. It is similar to Spanish, which I learnt up to native level I guess, also mostly speaking without a foreign accent. But back to French, I find it very hard to write it, so many accents and ‘s and letters that are not read. I have what they call a “musical ear”, so I do distinguish a lot of sound variations and tones, but the writing in French is brutal.

Another language I will forever learn and not be able to get to it as with my Spanish or English is German. I mess up the articles all the time, I am sure, but I just keep going. I am perfectly comfortable reading German literature or having a conversation, but it bothers me that after so much time being exposed to it, I still make poor choices of articles.

I started at some point learning Portuguese, but I found it frustrating that it was so similar to Spanish, all the words would come in Spanish in my mind.

If I could, I would love to also know Greek, Danish, Japanese, Mandarin, Arabic and many others probably.

Currently taking Japanese classes for fun. I’m about two years in and can have very basic conversations.

Took three years of German 20+ years ago and have German friends (and read German lemmy) so can practice sometimes.

I’m terrible at all of them and not that great at English either. I tend to “vomit language” moreso than speak well.

I can’t learn any languages because I have ADHD

I’ve been trying to learn russian but it’s been hard. I mostly know how to read Cyrillic and a few words and phrases. Everything else has been pretty difficult to make it stick in my head.

jag lära svenska för många år sedan. but never been any more motivated so my skill is very limited.

I learned to read cyrilic last year because I had to read some papers about central asian history written in russian, but I didn’t learn russian.

while at that, I found out that hangeul is a very simple writing system and it is, I figured it out immediately but I still had to look up the tables to write. russian cyrilic is still more intuitive to write. But I also didn’t learn korean.

تعلمت اللغة العربية 10 سنوات. But then I never use arabic anymore. It’s pretty cool somtimes to be able to read arabic writing and calligraphy. I used to won several arabic calligraphy contest.

and then I also can understand 2 local languages when people around talk, but I can’t speak it well.

Basically I never get motivated enough to be good at anything even in everything not just language :/

I started learning Swedish yesterday. My native language is Dutch. I started by reading a pronunciation guide, but (and this is so childish) I had to put the book away for laughing so hard after reading the Swedish word for meatballs: köttbullar.

Today I will make a second attempt. I hope I can keep it contained to a short chuckle.

I’m learning Irish. My schedule is crazy busy, but I do a lot of driving for work so I listen to Irish speaking lessons. I also do this only while I’m on the road because my Irish boyfriend has no idea I’m doing this so I can speak Irish on our wedding day.

I can say things like where I’ve been yesterday, where I am today, where I’ll be tomorrow, what are you doing, what were you doing, it was great craic, I don’t know, I’d like a pint of Guinness, please.

I’ll probably get made fun of for speaking the Ulster dialect (his family is all Dublin), but my favourite instructor that I’ve found is from Belfast and at least I’ll be able to speak it. ☘️

I’ve been learning Russian for a few years, I’ve also started learning Serbian and Ukrainian a little bit.

I can speak Russian pretty decently, it’s my girlfriend’s first language so I’ve had a lot of regular practice with it, I don’t consider myself fluent at this point but I can hold conversations with native speakers without too much of an issue

With Ukrainian I can understand quite a bit but I haven’t had much practice speaking it with other people at all yet. I have the basic phrases memorized, things like привіт, будь ласка, доброго ранку, добрий вечір, дякую, як справи, etc. but I don’t think I could hold a conversation speaking only in Ukrainian. I’ve been studying it kind of off and on for a year or so, and I listen to some Ukrainian music fairly often

Serbian I’ve been struggling to learn, I’ve been working on it for about 5 months. I think learning Russian first made it weirdly harder since the sentences are structured fairly differently. When it’s written, I can understand quite a bit, but if someone walked up to me and just started speaking Serbian I’d be completely lost

Nederlands (Dutch), my native language is Portuguese and I also speak English.

“Hallo, ik ben Cally en ik spreek een beetje Nederlands.” probably translates to “Hello, I am Cally and I speak a bit of Dutch.”

I kinda suck at learning languages so I’m still at what I assume is A1 level, I think my pronunciation is ok, though. Idk how to speed up language learning but I have set my phone to Dutch and that kinda helps. For example, “Instellingen” means “Settings”

I am learning German and I can read simple sentences with context, I still can’t understand it by listening

I just started taking Spanish classes. I had one year of Spanish in elementary school and I’m fluent in French, so it’s been pretty simple to understand Spanish but I need to keep working on speaking. I’ve also started watching Spanish language tv, to try to pick up more vocabulary.

Decided to take it to be able to speak with more people in my community, plus I love visiting Mexico and South America.

I have been learning Polish on-and-off for a couple of years now.

J’apprends le français, C’'est ma troisième langue. Il va ça va, et je suis A2 après ~6 mois, mais j’ai un amie qui m’aide aussi

Hmmm aku sedang belajar Bahasa Indonesia sekarang but I’m terrible at it.

I’m currently learning Catalan, doing Duolingo until I find some class (which there should be one in a couple of months). It’s relatively easy for me since I already speak fluent Spanish and Portuguese and understand almost everything in Italian.
