Bump for the Bulgarian shilling Esperanto.

Hindi is the Lingua Franca of india. Punjabi for the light skin sluts.

Be even more awesome and don't learn a language to ensure English domination of all you peasants.

Gonna start learning some Russian, how do I learn the alphabet fast? It looks fuckin impossible

I looked in the Google Drive link that there were books for Sicilian and Venetian but nothing for Napolitan. I'm wondering if anyone has a pdf of the dialect since I can't find anything on the web

Take a manual and learn, duh. The Cyrillic script is easy.

Or start with the Moldovan alphabet.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moldovan_Cyrillic_alphabet

learning the alphabet is probably the easiest part lol

The alphabet is super simple.

I needed literally about 10 minutes to learn it. There are very good PDF-s on it which will provide you to first read words that are only composed of latin look alike words and then they start to get harder.

You are in luck, I now remember it's name
Just try to find a book called "let's go 1 russian for adults a course for beginners"

I SWEAR to you you will only need to read from page 11 to page 13 and you will be like, wtf i now know how to read in russian O.o

Yeah we gonna see 'bout THAT u lil shits
Thanks for that lad, I'll most definitely check it out in the morning

Here is a screen cap of it, try to read in and you will be in awe how easy it is

>Ubuntu

What are you, some kinda homosexual deviant?

part 2

kek , won't trigger me that easy lad

Been reading the stuff you posted and I'm already feeling comfortable with it, is the book those came from any good for the continued learning process?

youtube.com/watch?v=ZP8SDSHIk9g
masterrussian.com/video/writing/writing-russian-cursive-letters.htm
And these video for learning the cursive script. They are obligatory for writing, so you had better learn it right after you are done with the alphabet.

*these videos are
*it is
Darn.

I can really tell you what you will be able because i combined lot of apps and books with this one but if I could go back I would try to achieve a lot with only this one and I think I would be able to that, yes. Go for it.

Okay then, thanks for the help dudes, you're all top blokes
Here's some (you)'s:

youtube.com/watch?v=vIi05c5lbbk

the alphabet is extremely easy, i learn on my phone while communting to work. The hardest part come after

The fuck you need 2 hours for. For this time you can learn bloody devanagari, even less so.

yeah it's long but with this you learn it definitely

>these threads are always dead

either everyone is learning or no one is learning

How to commit to a foreign language when you're an Anglophone who is a depressed mess?

Have a reason for learning I suppose? I only learn languages if I intend on visiting the country in which the language is spoken.

Anyone know some tips for Deutsch?

Clean your room.
Once upon a time they used to be more active when people would come to chat in their target language.
We don't seem to do that anymore.

grammar

>Clean your room.

don't wanna

Ich verstehe die duetsche Grammatik.

Realize that being a native English speaker actually is a great thing for an aspiring polyglot.

Think about it, you are not bound or forced by any exterior pressure (economical for example) to study a certain language. You go with your gut.

You can choose any language you feel like learning . It doesn't matter and you already speak the most requested language language in the world, so finding a language partner or partners is incredibly easy for you.

Language learning at its core is about forming habits doing something, anything for at least 30 minutes up to one hour a day is already enough to achieve a good level with enough patience.

Then just chat with people, watch tv in german with no subtitles and read books

then plan a holiday to Austria, Switzerland, or Germany, or all three

So I googled around a bit and I actually found the divorce records of Moses and his Chink wife for certain.

I feel really bad about their three children now.

No money and no friends
what do I do user

you can talk to this guy

But what if he doesn't like me and stuff.

I'd speak German with you, user, but I haven't spoken it in 5 years

you can also go post in /deutsch/

I do but sometimes they are mweanies.

Life is rough buddy, if you bothered to learn Korean you could talk with me

we all make mistakes

I looked at it and its on my list to learn.

Maybe I should learn that instead.

>implying i just wont write like a child

never even learnt to write cursive english kek

Same.

I write in cursive out of habit at this point, whenever I try out with print it morphs back into cursive after a couple words. It's so much faster

Can someone recommend some books in Turkish that are easy for a relative beginner to comprehend with limited need for reference to dictionaries? Can be stories for kids, I'm not fussed

Has anyone here learned at least two languages on their own to the point of fluency?

Being raised by your Spanish-speaking family or moving to a country as a kid doesn't count, I mean self-studied stuff.

Russian Learning conference discord.gg/recursion

most of us non-english natives learned english without studying much, it's osmosis if anything
and many are fluent, I can include me in that group too I think

how much of a beginner?
cin ali books are for pre-school children for example, pic related
there aren't many official sources in turkish because it's sort of irrelevant

Ossetian. Day 3. My new favorite words:

arv - sky
arm - arm
zimaeg - wiinter
zaerdae - heart
kad - respect
kard - knife
wynyn - to see

Anne - mom(?)
Babam - my father
Cin Ali'ye - to Cin Ali
bir at aldi - bought(?) a horse
Ata at aldi - Grandfather took(?) a horse
...
Su verdi - Gave the water(?)

Anne - mom(?) --- correct
Babam - my father --- correct
Cin Ali'ye - to Cin Ali --- correct
bir at aldi - bought(?) a horse --- correct
Ata at aldi - Grandfather took(?) a horse --- Ata ot aldı*, which means "bought the horse (some) weed/grass"
...
Su verdi - Gave the water(?) --- somewhat correct, gave the water would be "suyu verdi", su verdi is closer to "gave (some) water"

well done my nomadic friend

>visually mixed 'ot' up with 'at'
>shameful dispray

>"gave (some) water"/ "gave the water"
Same: su berdi/ sunı berdi

Age old question but when listening to the news in Spanish they talk fast. Would it be a decent idea to read what they are talking about first in Spanish and then watch later in order to capture the words better?

yes, I would also suggest focusing on the meaning of the total sentence instead of trying to capture individual words

also, 2 weeks ago I could hardly understand spanish, but now I can understand almost anything said on spanish radios like RNE or marcasports or onda cero?

i didn't even listen to that much spanish

>Clean your room.
This.
And your wardrobe and the rest of your house.

I couldn't believe how much this shit actually helps.

Which languages do you speak?

Something I read on a blog once:
Download Audacity (is free) and use it to slow down spoken mp3s.

In the beginning you don't. Instead you should find stuff to do in the language first, find music artists you like, watch tv or movies in the language, use it in every way you can. Weebs have motivation to learn Japanese because they spend all day watching Japanese shit and get fed up with translation. Do the same.

are there any Youtube channels of beginner to intermediate people learning a language? Any language is okay.

I want to see how a real person learns a language, not those "learn a language in only 3 months!!!!!!!!!" faggots

You mean see them actually opening a textbook or listening to a audio course?

i couldn't find this damn book anywhere except in a 18GB .rar file with broken download links

Here you go

bump for the spanish language

If you know Latin script it will be very easy trust me

Any Turkish music you would recommend? Not the arab sounding kind which sounds like its sung from a minaret.

You're so sweet

Si quieres te puedo ayudar, podemos hablar o te puedo recomendar series, programas o música. O hablar pro aquí.

any genre in particular?
besides it would be better if you clarified what sounded to you 'arab'

Does anyone know any good Swedish vlogs/YouTube channels?

Too middle eastern.

Ehm I guess could be ballads pop or even rap.

I see what you did there

I meant where they speak Swedish.

sería estupendo si podrías postear algúna canción en español que podría darme energia realmente
todas suenan como si se fueran hecho a adolescentes

Si prefieres otro estilo te las puedo buscar.

On his Swedish videos he also links to other Swedish youtubers or media so you can check those people too.
youtube.com/user/EnArgBlatteTalar

btw, are you alright if I point out a small mistake on your sentence?

of course dude, that'd be better for me
is it 'a adolescentes' that should be 'para adolescentes'?

>sería estupendo si podrías postear algúna canción en español que podría darme energia realmente
si pudieras
que pudiera
energía
>todas suenan como si se fueran hecho a adolescentes
para adolescentes

Tienes bastante buen nivel, son algunos detalles y me imagino que las declinaciones son difíciles de aprender.

ahhh yes, that 'if conjugation'
I usually don't bother with accents, I usually don't miss them, thanks anyway

Bump
I hope you guys learned while Sup Forums was dead

About two weeks into Japanese and I feel like I'm bashing my head into a wall. Mostly it's the kanji and getting the sentence order wrong, but I'll get it eventually.

Well I hope (You) have studied today desu.

Anki, Duolingo and watching Turkish soap operas. Iyiyim

I learned a whole one word.

bump for ardurous agglunation
