Day 1 of #60daysofinput : Oct 5
Today's goals are in the image. I will update what I actually accomplished later! #langsky
I'm back #langsky with a new personal challenge! I haven't been doing the greatest with my Spanish studies so I'm doing a #60daysofinput challenge where I try to make as much progress in my listening & reading comprehension for Spanish within 60 days. I'll follow this up with another in February! β¨
docs still don't know what's up with my heart but I studied Spanish for over 3 hours the day before yesterday which makes up for the fact that I've studied under an hour today π₯²
thank you π
level as of 11 may 2025! πΏ
unchanged since december because I'm a bad noodle

notes about doctors appointments vocabulary and grammar for Spanish. it has sections for vocabulary, verbs, getting an appointment, saying the date, medical conditions with tener, other conditions, getting treatment, things the doctor might say, how often to take a prescription, and example sentences.
today's #Spanish study topic was chosen for me by busuu! visits to the doctor. as someone with a few chronic conditions, this was a helpful lesson!
spent almost two hours practicing on busuu and making notes. #studysky #langsky
Japanese study apps that don't use AI! #langsky
A useful thread with suggestions of alternatives to #Duolingo now the owner of the wee owl has decided to fire 70% of the people who are language specialists, and replace them with AI.
I can't make governments stand up for people over profiteering, but I can vote with my feet.

back on my #langsky studies again with a goal in mind by Christmas.
instead of posting my daily logs the night I finish them, I'm moving them to the mornings after because I'm going no tech after 8pm, but I still study after 8, so I can't post the logs then.
β and bye #duolingo. never AI-first!
Here's today's work spot. And by "work", I mean trying to recover my previous level of Vietnamese. Who can say the name of this coffee? #langsky

ayyy #langsky I'm finally back into rhythm. I got sick over the holidays and had a ton of legal stuff to do because I'm in the process of changing my residency. I haven't kept up with my logs but I have been keeping up with my Spanish convo practice. goal: C1 level by Aug 2026 πͺβ¨

I will only be completing my everyday studies today and not my thursday-specific ones. landlords came over and made me soup. hoping I'll be healed for my 4 hour train ride on saturday π¬

started labeling the sections with the flag emoji for the language I've studied so it's more pleasing to the eye and easier to skim for the language log I'm looking for. wish Esperanto had an emoji for its flag π

I have them set up with templates that apply automatically for whatever day I'm in, so all I have to do is type what I did for that app/category and the time spent!
I'll keep these posts titled as Spanish study logs even though they're usually more than Spanish, just because my scheduled activities for that day will be in Spanish and the everyday activities vary in language

I love language transfer! I will definitely start the Italian course for a while. thanks!
my bf and I are meeting up this month with a girl we met a few months ago at a lang exchange. her English & Spanish levels are low. she doesn't know we are learning the basics of Italian before we meet up. I have until the 29th to learn the basics i need. challenge time π busuu π©π #langsky #studysky
followed! thank you π
thank you so much! we will see what comes up as we get through the course. β¨
I'm expecting it won't be easy because czech is definitely not an easy language to learn π₯²
