Graduated from N5 grammar lessons to N4 on MaruMori.
Graduated from A2 section on Duolingo to B1.
Still need a lot more education than what this is otherwise perceived as, need chock tons of exposure and exercises in the languages still. It feels like I’m a beginner in everything. I like studying, but even with the 2hrs in Japanese a day, it still feels like I’m hardly getting any traction. I have no idea why.
It’s just really hard! It may not feel like any traction toward the massive goal of ‘being fluent’ or whatever, but you know more than you did.
Between stopping and starting and trying different resources, I’m always encouraged when I encounter a word or character in a different context. Gives me that little glimpse of what I call ‘the language folding in on itself’, and seeming connected and tractable.
2hrs Japanese, 1hr Spanish, 30 mins Irish.
