So, who else is learning a language?
I started learning Brazilian Portuguese today. It's definitely challenging; I don't have an ear for Romance languages and my smattering of Latin knowledge isn't really enough to be useful.
My method is to start with DuoLingo for the basics. I've never used it before, and so far it's not bad. The gamification definitely appeals to me, and the "tree" is a lot more extensive than I expected. I have heard the app is dumbed down compared to the browser version though, which is disappointing.
I am keeping a BuJo style notebook for this too so it'll be part journal, part dictionary, part general resource.
Current goal is to commit to one hour of practice/immersion every day.
I also want to start learning more about the culture, history etc too at some point.
Anyway, fellow language learners of AW, what are you learning, how are you learning it, and what kind of experiences and challenges have you had so far?
