Still wandering around here, but not as often as I used to. Unfortunately, it seems this platform has not bevone as popular as (I think) it had the potential to be

Yeay, being afraid of sounding silly is the worst. And definitely, I think letting go of your mother tongue is a very important step if you want to really be fluent in a new language 💯

That's a very good point indeed! Yes, I think many people (unfortunately) feel lame or awkward when changing their natural/native way of pronouncing things 😟

Wow, Arabic sounds like an incredibly hard language in terms of pronunciation 😅
Did you take lessons with a teacher/tutor or did you learn by yourself?

A bit like Catalan and Valencian, I guess

Do Serbians and Croatians claim to speak different languages?

The bottom line is that the more languages you know, the easier it is to learn new ones, even if they are seemingly unrelated. #langtwt #langsky

Are Korean and Turkish related? No that I know of, apart from both being agglutinative languages. Turkish has vowel harmony, Korean doesn't. And yet, I can find a similarity in consonant change rules between both languages. 😁

Exactly! Even if Urdu has a heavier influence from Persian, people claiming they are two separate languages has more to do with politics and religion than with actual linguistic differences

That's great! Keep going! 👏👏👏

That sounds great! Sounds like you have a very good Japanese level, is that right?

That sounds good! Practicing handwriting is super relaxing ☺️

El català 😃

HI: 'crazy in love' and 'someone who shares your pain'. Both super poetic 🥰
TR: it just means 'goodbye', but in a more literal sense it means 'keep smiling'
IT: 'brushed', I just think it sounds funny
FA: same as in Hindi (actually, it seems the word हमदर्द/همدرد is originally Persian) 😀

EN: 'so beautiful that it takes away your breath', so poetic
CA: 'caress', I think both the meaning and the sound are so sweet
ES: it's a fancy way on saying 'stupid, I just think it's funny
RU: 'destined' or 'meant to be', very representative of the Russian culture

Wow, that's so many languages!

Adding the #langsky hashtag to spread it through the community 😊
