Traduttore, traditore. An act of translation is always an act of betrayal. Currently sitting in a coffee shop reading this book, I’m about 139 pages in and I’m completely hooked. It’s so fascinating to unpack what it means to learn a language separate from your own native language, the way we pick languages that impact our surroundings and the way languages themselves function. As someone who’s studied languages from English, Spanish, Latin and French, it’s fascination to realize that despite speaking English primarily now it wasn’t my first language. My first language was Vietnamese and how I lost it over time but have started regaining it and what that means to me. ☕️📝📚
#tbr#fun fact i met the author of this book in oxford before she'd published any novels & it's been so cool to watch her grow so successful!

Snippets from today. To-do lists, cafe session earlier, the view while I wait for the car to get washed, and morning anki session. I still have time to review tomorrow but I’m nervous for next week’s exams 😭

Some snaps from today. I watched Ghostbusters before studying and it was worth it, definitely one of my favorites! Nothing planned this weekend, just plain studying.
