i’m UFO (blog name makes sense now right?) and i’ve never had a langblr blog before.
wanted to try starting one to help keep myself on track with daily studies & maybe help someone out in the process! if anyone finds this blog that is
this blog will mainly focus on Japanese studies, but there might be occasional posts about other languages here too.
if anyone sees this, reblogs are appreciated! itd be nice to make some mutuals :D
*hears a foreign language i don’t speak*
me: *sobbing* it’s beautiful i must learn it
not my meme but it made me laugh
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!

have spent my study time the past few days learning some basic sign language & the respect i already had for people who are skilled in such a physically complex language has tripled
Specifically, to “swash a buckler” referred to the act of pounding a buckler (small shield) against one’s own chest as a sort of macho display.
Me struggling: I’ll pick up another language to feel something

Don't speak to me or my son ever again
the key word here is “expect”! the difference between はず and べき is that はず implies no moral or subjective obligation, just a logical expectation.
明日は雨のはずだ。 = it’s supposed to rain tomorrow. (i heard it on the news, but it’s not like i necessarily want it to rain or think it should rain.)
真実を言うべきだ。 = you should tell the truth. (it’s morally right and i think it would be a good idea.)
お母さんはすぐ戻るはずだ。 = mom should be back any minute. (she texted me ten minutes ago saying she was on her way home, so it’s a reasonable assumption.)
すぐ家に戻るべきだ。 = you should go home. (some incident happened, like maybe you got sick, that makes me think it would be best for you to go home right now.) (compare with すぐ家に戻らなくてはいけない = you have to go home now)
that’s the basic difference between the two: はず expresses a reasonable expectation, while べき expresses a moral obligation or personal opinion. there is of course some overlap between the two, so keep your eyes peeled for examples in the wild! また今度ね！
Awkwardly hovering around a group of people trying to work out what language they’re speaking.

A big thank you to all of the native speakers out there who take the time to read and correct posts. Without you the langblr community wouldn’t be the same! We learn from mistakes, so keep correcting :)
biggest language wtf moment is when you can understand every single word of a sentence but you still have no idea what it actually means
