hey!! so ive been logged off from this account up until now, mainly bc my life has been hectic as hell. i switch schools and moved, on top of taking time for my physical health.
I want to get back on here! it was a great motivational source so why not boot it back up!
As for learning habits/themes right now, im learning Turkish and ASL, and im going to start computer science classes this spring!
Sorry, we localized your boyfriend. Yeah. A lot of his character got lost in translation. Had to change his name to one that would make sense to a western audience too. My deepest apologies.
Translator? Why not trans now?
My parents just read this post aloud to me and asked me if I’d seen it. I don’t know how to react.
Me, watching my mutuals speak other languages, not understanding a single word: fucking superb you funky little bilinguals

Me, sobbing: fucfink sup erbb,

Joining the war on autism on the side of autism by getting myself stim toys and chewlery even if I feel a little silly at first. I will not avoid potentially very useful resources just bc I'm told they're childish
Okay, I'm picking up a new language. If anyone has resources for learning Arabic pls lmk!!
Gonna post writerblr stuff here too I think :)
bilingualism is what happens when an immovable object (piece of media that is not translated) meets an unstoppable force (12yo kid who really really wants to play/read/watch that piece of media)
this post isnt about taking language classes so you can watch that thing its about being 12 and interacting directly with something in a language you dont understand and learning it by sheer force of will
That’s it
“don’t go where i can’t follow” is literally the most romantic thing anyone has ever said. it’s like. i’ll let you bring me anywhere—far from home, far from the places and people i love, so long as you stay with me. i’ll let you walk into danger and through hell, but i will not let you go where i can’t go with you. that is where i draw the line.
Art can hurt, sometimes.
Rest is not earned by being productive and overworking. It is a human right. It is a human need. You deserve to rest.
being tempted by the devil (picking up new languages)
The funniest thing about learning a new alphabet is when you can finally read words but have no idea what it says
- podcast recommendations in spanish for bookworms
hello! lately i’ve been using podcasts to augment my readings, find new things to read, and expose myself to new tactics of literary criticism, so here are some podcasts i’ve been enjoying. as a general tip, if you put the name of the book you’re reading or its author in the spotify search bar you will probably find an analysis or an interview, so try it out! ¡feliz lectura!
tema libre: my favorite on the list. from editorial anagrama, two authors discuss whatever they’d like (hence the name). my favorite episode is this one with mariana enríquez and kiko amat.
un libro una hora: just what it sounds like. they pick a book each episode and talk about it. meant for after you’ve read the book, since they do go into spoilers. they talk about literature from all over the world, not just from spanish speaking authors
tropebusters: not specifically literature, but they analyze a popular trope in literature, film, and pop culture in each episode. here’s one about humans vs ai
las ñoñas: discussion of varied authors with thematic music to accompany. i found them while looking for reviews on cadáver exquisito, so check out this episode.
cine aparte: it’s actually film, sorry! i’m in a film class right now so i’ve been treating film like literature for studying. this podcast analyzes both new releases and cult classics.
patio interior: another podcast of discussion of varied authors, but the episodes tend to be shorter so you can give it a quick listen and see if you want to read what they’ve recommended.
Newcomer is a fantasy video game where players are immersed in the second language they want to learn. 100+ characters to communicate with, eight language learning mechanics, and RPG features make second language acquisition an adventure. Designed for beginner - intermediate learners, players progress and learn a second language at their own pace.
Thought langblr might be interested in this. Current languages are French, Italian, English, and Spanish, with Japanese as a stretch goal!
this looks so cool!!!
I love cheesey language learning puns :)))) dad jokes know no language
