I started Hebrew, which is why I’ve been dead on this blog, but I don’t think I can ever properly convey to you guys the sheer cultural whiplash of spending years learning Japanese from Japanese teachers and then trying to learn Hebrew from an Israeli

Japanese: you walk into class already apologizing for being alive Hebrew: you walk into class, the teacher insults you and you are expected to insult her back

Japanese: conjugates every single verb based on degree of intended politeness, nevermind keigo and honorifics Hebrew: Someone asked my teacher how to say “excuse me” and she laughed for several seconds before saying we shouldn’t worry about remembering that since we’ll never need to say it

Japanese: if you get one stroke wrong the entire kanji is incomprehensible Hebrew: cursive? script? fuck it do whatever you want, you don’t even have to write the vowels out unless you feel like it

Japanese: the closest thing there is to ‘bastard’ is an excessively direct ‘you’ pronoun Hebrew: ‘bitch’ translates directly

empezé aprendiendo chino en el grado octavo, pero mi escuela después de eso no tenía algo de clases de chino, así que empezé llevando español. y aquí estoy ahora, en tumblr, el mejor lugar para aprendiendo (sarcasmo)

estoy tratando de a mejorar mi español, y posiblemente más idiomas. así que probablemente no lo está un buen idea a usar la jerga de tumblr ahora, pero.... no me importa 🤷🤷
