Hey! I am looking for some ppl to take a survey for my anthropology class. I am looking at how language skill difficulty varies among native and non-native English speakers. The survey is 15 qs, almost all multiple choice, and no personal information is required. Please reblog if you can. Thanks!

linguistisch replied to your post: für lange Zeit habe ich Deustch studiert aber es...

studieren refers to studying something in university like as your major, lernen would be better here :)

For the langblr asks, 19, 26, 30

19. Do you listen to music in your target language(s)? If so, who are your favorite artists?

In German, I listen to a bit sometimes, but the only artist I really know is Nena (she’s pretty awesome tho :)) and I don’t know any songs in Galician D: so if anyone can recommend some, id be so grateful!!

26. Do you ever feel like your target language(s) is(are) under appreciated? Why/why not?

German, not really, but Galician yeah. And I think it’s mostly cuz it’s really useless outside of Galicia, and even in Galicia a lot of ppl tell me to not bother with it, so yeah it’s definitely underappreciated

30. Where are you from? What are popular/”useful” foreign languages in your area?

I live in Quebec and tbh the language most ppl learn here is Spanish (cuz English and French are already taught at school so they don’t count). Aside from that, a lot of people speak mandarin and Arabic so those are probably very useful to learn here too

4, 16, 17 💕💕💕

4. do you like your name?  is there another name you think would fit you better?

I do like my name, partly because there’s not much else I can think of that isn’t exactly suitable.

16. if you’d grown up in a different environment, do you think you’d have turned out the same?

I highly doubt it, whether or not they were small or large differences.

17. would you say your tumblr is a fair representation of the “real you”?

I’m not sure. I’m not 100% aware of who I am as a person, but i think at times, I stop myself and think, “oh shit i shouldn’t share this people from school follow me on here.” And in that case, it can be a bit censored. Generally, though, I think it is.
