This is a club for anyone that is interested in learning another language while learning about different cultures.
  1. What's new in this club
  2. Hello everyone, I would love to learn French..anyone volunteering to teach me I'd gladly accept the help
  3. Okay so your discord isn’t up there but mine is? Add me?
  4. I’d love to!!!! I’ll add on discord as long as it’s in your page. Heads up… I learned French from 15 years ago & now relearning from Duolingo so there’s lots of ‘cheval’ talk for some reason lol
  5. Hi! If anyone would like to chat in French to pratice reading/writing, I'd be happy to help. It's my first langage. @Tasherz if you're still interested, I'm available I did have some trouble logging in recently though. We can chat on the forum itself or you could add me on discord too if you don't mind. Feel free to send a following request!
  6. ¡Hola! Me llamo Tendillo. Soy de inglaterra. Me gustaría practicar escribar más en Español. Viví en España por un año y poco, con solo hablantes de español, y yo lo estaba aprender bastante rápido por necesidad. Sin embargo, no he tenido muchas oportunidades últimamente. Espero que podamos divertirnos un poco, pero se nota que necesito mejorar, especialmente en gramática y sintaxis. (Hello! My name is Tendillo. I'm from England. I would like to practice writing more in Spanish. I lived in Spain for a year or so, with only Spanish speakers, and I was learning it pretty quickly out of necessity. However, I haven't had many opportunities lately. I hope we can have a little fun, but you can tell I need to improve, especially in grammar and syntax.)
  7. I'm nearing the 150 day goal mark on Duolingo!!!! I often struggle with following through on hobbies like this. So I am extremely proud of myself for focusing on something productive instead of the same daily stressors. I'm not perfect by any means. I use a streakfreeze at least twice per month lol. But I am trying and I am showing progress 😊

  8. Hello! Would anyone like to be friends on Duolingo? Even if we're not learning the same language, we can still compete in friend quests together to help stay motivated as we accomplish our separate goals 😊. Feel free to add me! My username on Duolingo is: LittleMissTexas
  9. Hello, I was born in Korea and served in the ROKMC as a young man so my Korean is very not bad. My accent is pretty Americanized as I haven't lived in Korea in a couple decades but I would love to share whatever knowledge I have to those who want to learn and practice with me.
  10. Thank you for allowing me in the group 🌻 I am somewhat new to the site and a complete beginner in learning German. I'm excited to follow along everyone's journey and cheer for your progress!! If anyone else is currently working towards fluency in German, or is willing to help a noob reach their goal; please feel free to message me! I am hoping to at least get to a B1 level by 2028 🤞🤞

  11. I grew up speaking French and my new job wants to use me as a bilingual agent. I haven't used my French in a long time and would love something to practice with. If anyone is interested please let me know! My reading and writing isn't the greatest and I would love to work on it!
  12. Hello, nice to meet you new friend! I recently began learning German in January and I would greatly appreciate a pal to practice it with 😊 We can stream on Discord and watch something together if anyone has any German movie/series recommendations!

    Any Germans here?

    I recently started learning and would enjoy a friend to practice speaking with! Duolingo typically does not care for my pronunciation lol

    Chinese

    um i grew up speaking Cantonese. it’s my native language. Cantonese originated from Guangdong, which was called Canton in English. Other parts of the world speak it too like Hong Kong and i think parts of Singapore and Malaysia and the Cantonese communities in California. there’s a lot of history and culture. Is there anything in particular? If i know it i can try to share. China has hundreds of dialects. The official language there is mandarin but local dialects are closer to 300. I think Chinese is classified into seven to ten primary language groups like Mandarin, Wu (Shanghai), Yue (Cantonese), Min (Fujian/Taiwan), Hakka, Xiang (Hunan), and Gan (Jiangxi). Some classifications include Jin, Pinghua, and Huizhou. Before China was unified by Shi Huangdi and became one country, it was hundreds of small countries living next to each other. That’s why each place had their own spoken and written language and sounds different from each other. But Shi Huangdi destroyed and burned all of the books and buried all of the scholars and he changed Chinese communication by mandating a standardized writing system across his unified empire around 221 BCE. This forced people with different regional dialects to read the same texts and speak the same language. i learned this when i was in elementary school
  19. hiiiii my name is haven. My pronouns are she/ella/她. my native language is Cantonese. I grew up in the states but my parents are mostly monolingual so i grew up speaking Canto. My second language is English. i don’t know if it counts but i took three years of French in high school. i can still read and write and say some things in French. i also went to mandarin school as a kid. So i can read and understand mandarin. Mandarin is considered to be easier than Cantonese since mandarin only has four tones and canto has nine. i also spent the last eight years learning and still learning Spanish from Yucatán, Mexico because my daddy’s parents are monolingual and i want to be able to talk with them. i can read and write better than i can speak tho. i can order food, say some phrases, and read the newspaper in Vietnamese. i like to look through the classifieds of the Saigon times newspaper. My parents’ nationality was Vietnamese but they consider their ethnicity to be Chinese, meaning they grew up in Vietnam but are culturally Chinese and speak multiple dialects of Chinese. i had to secretly learn Viet here and there since my parents didn’t want me to learn at all. I consider myself only fluent in Cantonese and English.

  20. Hello, I know that most of the people here speak English, and only a few do not, or it is not their first language. I've been learning English for years, but I've been distracted from it for periods of time, and the reasons vary, of course. Now I've truly found my hardworking colleague, and we've started communicating with each other in English only—voice to describe our day and text to correct some of our mistakes. I'm truly happy about that because everyone who told me they wanted to learn just made me stop and wait for them to start together, but they just broke their promise and made me wait for no reason. I don't consider myself to have stopped completely because I'm still learning from YouTube and movies, but not with the same effort as before. Anyone who wants to learn English can share and exchange ideas 😸💙 ^If there are any mistakes, I apologize. I'm using a translator^

    Japanese

    I am so happy to find this topic. My household is wanting to move toward the end of the year. They would like to move to Japan. Most in the house are doing really well with studying, learning and writing the language. For some reason I am having the hardest time out of all of us. For writing my hands are a bit of a bother trying to write the small characters. Lets not even start on the pronunciation of the words. My family laughs at me, I know it is in fun and not to be hurtful (but it does hurt me.). I was wondering if anyone might know of any good study aids that might be able to help? Thank you.
  23. Hiyaaa! ✨ I've recently stumbled upon this channel on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@CarlG./videos, and I think it could be perfect for listening practice ✨
  24. Hello! I am Akichan. Did you know you can "rent" Japanese boyfriends, girlfriends, wise older men, etc. online? I am super nerdy so I create slideshows on different topics (holidays, medicine, school, etc.) and study with them. It's been a great resource for me, so I thought I'd throw the idea out there for others!
  25. Ling has some less common languages. Its especially good for Thai. Beelinguapp has news, books, and music at various levels. And this isn't language learning specific but if you like flashcards check out Anki. There are pre-made sets to start you off, some with audio and images to help you learn!
  26. Haha I get for sure lol but if you more people might see it and might be able to help I try to keep this club going and more interest would be welcome
