Halito! Chahtawordoftheday sia!

(Hi! I am Chahtawordoftheday!)

Each new generation is responsible for proliferating their stories. I created this blog because, as a Native, this is hard to do alone. Want to brush up on Chahta anumpa (The Choctaw language) with me? Then this is the blog for you! Look forward to daily vocab, language learning resources (some shared from the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma's website), and a spotlight on Native art/politics

Speaking of which, here’s the the blogs linktree! A place where you can find Chahta anumpa and community resources. I also have the habit of linking art projects related to my instagram @row5oat, which serves as a portfolio of sorts

Vocab masterlist:

If there are any resources you like me to highlight, please let me know! Feel free to tag me in simple posts you'd like translations too, like a picture of a cat (katos) or a snake (sinti), request subjects/themes for the word(s) of the day, and to otherwise dm me! I am very active on tumblr and can't wait to go on this journey with you!

Chi pisa la chike, yakoke! (Til we meet again, and thank you!)

10.10.2024 — 안녕하세요! I realize I never made any sort of introduction on here, so here goes a short and simple one!

저는 에샤입니다~ It’s pronounced like Asia~ 한국어를 공부하고 있어요. 온라인 수업 대학교에서 공부해요. 25살이에요. 그리고 워싱턴에서 살아요. 네, 전 Twilight life 정말 살아요. ㅋㅋ

커피, 케이팝, 드라마들, 웹툰, 비, 매운 음식, 그리고 글쓰기 좋아해요. 언젠가 드라마를 쓰고 싶어요. 그게 제 꿈이에요.

대학교에서 1년 동안 한국어를 공부했지만 아직 잘 못해요. 그래서 친구들과 함께 한국어를 연습하고 싶어요. 정말 싶어요! 😭🙏🏻

If you are a Korean student or studying Korean and want to practice messaging in Korean together, please always feel free to message me on Tumblr (seriously please feel free, lol). No pressure, as I am a beginner with only basic knowledge right now. Maybe I’d be okay with voice messaging in the future, too. We could also ask each other study questions, talk about Korean topics, etc. I’m really open to anything if it means practicing!

어쨌든, 만나서 반가워요! 화이팅 여러분~

How to study languages without studying

Whether you're just starting out and have had bad experiences with textbook learning in the past or are getting burnt out from prepping for the next proficiency test, it's never a bad idea to put the textbooks away for a time and just enjoy your target language. If you're new to the world of immersion, here are a few ways to get you started.

Follow along with the lyrics of a song. Spotify's not-so-new-anymore lyrics feature is great for this, especially since it has timed lyrics, but it doesn't have every song.

Expert mode: Write out the lyrics and underline/highlight/make note of all the words and grammar structures you don't know. Learn these unknowns until you can understand the whole song!

Extra challenge: Translate a song from your target language. I usually tend to stay away from translations in my study, but for those of you who aspire to be translators (or already are!), the poetic nature of song lyrics can be a fun challenge.

Watch a show or movie. Netflix has now introduced a feature where you can sort by language! If there's nothing made in your language that you're interested in, it also gives the option to sort by shows and movies that have the audio or subtitles available. Internet Archive also tends to have lots of foreign films that I'm looking for.

Easy mode: Watch with English or your native language subtitles. When doing this, try to still listen to what's being said and pick up on words and phrases that you know, or match new words with their translation in the subtitles. Note: reading one language and listening to another is a skill in and of itself! Don't be discouraged if you can't do both at the same time yet, you're brain is still making the connections in intonation and cadence of the language.

Hard mode: Watch with captions in your target language. This helps you connect listening and reading, especially in languages where the spelling isn't exactly phonetic, or it uses a different alphabet than what you're used to.

Expert mode: No captions or subtitles! But who knows, maybe you're better at listening comprehension than I am. Make sure you're getting comprehensible input here; some shows and movies are much harder than others. But above all else, watch what keeps your interest. A movie where you can catch half the dialogue but is super engaging is better for you than an "easy" movie that you're going to spend your time ignoring.

Polyglot mode?: Watch something in your target language with subtitles in a different target language. This adds just one too many layers of obfuscation for me, but if you're into the challenge, more power to you.

Watch YouTube. You can change your language preference on YouTube, and with that, the Explore section will give you recommendations in your target language. Going into the trending tab with your target language can give you a good idea about what people are interested in in the countries where your target language is spoken.

Read something. It can be a book, it can be a comic. There are plenty of webcomics out there in a number of languages! There's also probably an English language listicle with recommendations of easier to understand webcomics for learners, too.

If you're just getting started in immersion, you can choose whether you focus on intensive reading or extensive reading (this actually goes for all kinds of immersion, but is easiest to control with reading since it happens at your own pace). Intensive reading is reading with the goal of understanding everything 100%. If you don't understand a word, or a grammar point, or the reading of a character, look it up. Extensive reading is reading just to get the gist of things. Look up words and grammar points only if they stop you from understanding the general meaning of the sentence or section. And of course, the more you immerse, the less you'll have to look things up, but remember that difficulty varies between materials, even within books of the same age range, genre, and medium.

A small digression: If you decide that you never want to open a textbook on your language learning journey, more power to you! It can be done and I know people who have gotten to proficient levels of their target language without textbooks. If you want this to be you, extensive immersion is your best friend. You also might want to get comfortable with the flashcard program anki, because, if this is your goal, all those unknown grammar points and words will probably end up there. But at the end of the day, language learning is an intensely personal journey, and what works for others won't necessarily work for you. Finding what works for you is just part of learning a language.

Play a game. Lots of games are region locked (hint: Pokemon Sun/Moon isn't! If you start a new game, you can choose which language you want to play it in), but there are plenty of free online games still lurking in the corners of the internet. With a bit of googling, you can probably find something in your target language. Just the other day, I went out to find one of those hidden item games in Japanese and ended up finding an entire site dedicated to user made browser games.

If you're learning Japanese or Korean, picrew might be fun to look through as well. I noticed that plenty of picrews have basic anatomy vocabulary. I'm not super familiar with picrew myself, but the ones I've seen tend to be in Korean and Japanese

And lastly, don't fully give up on textbooks before trying them out. Don't be discouraged if textbooks truly aren't your thing, but studying a language on your own time can feel much different than studying for school. Don't put too much pressure on yourself and just have fun with your language. Additionally, if you'd rather learn in a video format, many languages have full courses uploaded to YouTube for you to try. Finding these can be difficult for some languages though, so don't hesitate to reach out to other learners and see what they recommend!

Got your materials ready? Great! Now go forth and immerse!

introduction post!!!

大家好🧡， 我叫维克托，我张贴在这博客我的进展在学中文。🧡

Hello everyone, I'm Viktor, I will be posting on this blog my progress in learning Chinese 🧡

My username is based off of Ethel Cain's song, Onanist, highly recommend I love it 💙

Also I love orange and blue as a color combo so that's the theme for this blog 💙

I've been learning Chinese on and off for a few months now, but have decided to make this blog to keep me motivated as I've not made any real progress because I keep losing track. 💙

That's all I really have to put in my introduction post for now, but I won't just be posting my Chinese learning progress (though I will try to keep it somewhat mostly about that), I will also post aesthetic moodboards and just random stuff about my life.

[tomatojuiced]

welcome! ᯓ⠀ᩙ°. ‼︎

ᯓ an introduction

hello!! i'm torin, i’m 19, and i’m starting my first year of university this fall; i’ll be studying japanese and linguistics, but i also love to read and write, so much of my content will probably be related to those topics or just my life in general!

ᯓ about me

i enjoy all kinds of literature–but mostly fantasy, magical realism, and classics atm!–and i’m very passionate about languages! i also like to make art and poetry, write, worldbuild, play video games, listen to music, and travel (when i can lol). lately, i’ve been working on worldbuilding for a fantasy novel, so i may post about my progress on that, too. oh! and i’m an infp, sag sun, scorpio rising, and cap moon! 

my hope for this blog is to create a safe space for self-expression, productivity, and calm! as a queer and neurodivergent person, all three of those things can be hard to prioritize at times OTL

i’m always open to any asks, chats, or declarations of undying love you may have and i’ll try my best to reply promptly (sometimes i forget social media exists, bear with me teehee 🙏) i’d love to find some mutuals and friends here on tumblr and am excited to join the community!!

-PS- please no meanies on my blog, bigotry and hate will not be tolerated here :p

Intro :)

Hi everyone! I'm Alexis (though that can change) and this is my newly converted studyblr, langblr, and brain dump side blog. Interactions will be coming from my main which you'll learn the name of when I follow you back haha

I'm a first-year college student studying molecular biology so that's going to be what the study side of this is focused on.

The language side will be focused primarily on bettering my Spanish reading, writing, and speaking skills since it's literally my native language and it's embarrassing that I can understand complex language I hear but can't express myself the same way (ᵕ—ᴗ—) There additionally may be the occasional Korean studying for a minute because I'm planning on studying abroad next year and I'm unsure about where I'm going yet. There are few universities that my school is partnered with that offer STEM classes, even less that offer them in English. Right now, I'm between Universidad de Almeria, Universidad de Guanajuato, Yonsei University, Ewha Women's University, Massey University, and Ulster University, though I'd rather take the semester in a non-English speaking country as I feel that the language aspect of study abroad is something really important. That's why I'm gravitating towards the Spanish-speaking universities since I already am technically a native speaker, and I feel like being surrounded by Spanish again would really help me out in my speaking skills. However, I think it would be really cool to spend time in Korea, especially Seoul because I haven't spent a lot of time in cities, and I have never studied a non-romantic language. But that is just my side tangent, we will cross the bridge of deciding where I will be attending when I need to next year :)

Spanish: STAMP 4S composite score 7.75

Currently reading:

The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins

Catching Fire - Suzanne Collins (2/15)

Mockingjay - Suzanne Collins

Purgatorio - Dante Alighieri (4/29)

Anyway, yeah that's me! Come hang out and let's get to know each other ദ്ദി(˵ •̀ ᴗ - ˵ )

[spamestys]

hey you can call me anything you want! i am someone who is interested in learning other languages, so if anyone wants to study with me or something, that would be really cool! i've studied a lot of languages in the past, though i've never gotten close to proficient in them. some languages ive tried to study in the past have been spanish, italian, dutch, russian, japanese, and bulgarian. i remember nothing cause i struggle with languages LMAO anyway uh yeah, i think having more friends that speak other languages would be really cool

Welcome To The Baatt Cave

Hello all and welcome to my new language learning blog; You can call me fruitbaatt or baatt, since I don't particularly like attaching a proper name to my tumblr blogs

This blog was created to document my progress on learning Gáidhlig from absolute beginner to hopefully one day being fluent. You can expect me to make various posts here in both English and Gáidhlig as I begin to understand it well enough to write in it. I will likely often post some things I've learned in a day, and eventually maybe post about random things I like in Gáidhlig, writing or diary entries just to practise. It will inevitably be a bit clunky at first but please bare with me

As well as my own posts, I will also reblog any resources I've found helpful either about Gáidhlig specifically or language learning/self-teaching in general

In terms of my interests outside of all that I love Outlast, House Of Wax, Saw, Invader Zim (TV + Comics), My Little Pony (G4), Moomins (90's + 70's), Fight Club (Film + Book), Johnny The Homicidal Maniac, Good Omens (TV), Our Flag Means Death, What We Do In The Shadows (TV + Film), Hannibal (TV), Interview With The Vampire (TV), and my hobbies include writing, art, knitting, sewing, guitar (a little rusty), gaming and DIY; If You're into any of that and happen to be learning Gáidhlig too, You'll likely feel right at home here

I don't have much of a DNI because I don't believe they work very well, but I do block freely and for any reason I feel like so be warned. I can only ask You to be kind to Yourself and others on my blog, but even that isn't guaranteed to work so I'll curate my online experience on my own whenever necessary and I ask that You don't take it to heart

Asks are always open (anon is on if You're shy, and You can request anon tags), as are messages. I might take some time to get back to You but I will, just be patient. I'm always open to converse in English or Gáidhlig once I understand more of it

That's pretty much all for now! Slàn leat :3

Today's a bit more lowkey because I have a nasty migraine, but I still got some stuff done! I started studying a bit of Portuguese for my upcoming trip to Lisbon, did a bunch of laundry, and went on a short walk to pick up some groceries and gifts for my mom and the kitties <3 I'm going to lay down for awhile and play Stardew or take a nap so I can hopefully feel better tomorrow and get more done.

Intro Post 🫵☝️

This is a Danish learning blog where I'll be making posts about Danish, talking about my interests in Danish, using new words I learn etc.

Plently of what I say with be guided by shudders. Google translate.. because I am still very much a beginner. But I hope this will help me get better and help me track my progress.

Follow if you want, I don't really care, this is mainly for me to learn

But it would be cool to get some tips from other people learning Danish too.

I started learning Danish because my autism got attached to mads mikkelsen and then to danish but we don't talk about that
