Nice work @this_that5553 , thanks
Я говорю можно по русский
Noice I have a pin
@RevStench what type of Ukrainian are you learning? The standard type they teach in books, or the mixed dialect that most people speak?
It's standard.
For those that have learned a 'foreign language' without moving abroad and being immersed in it-- how did you do it?
I can teach some basic Irish if you guys want
Or at least translate some stuff at random and help with word pronunciation
@Deleted User added to sticky
@Deleted User I've gotten quite far with Michel Thomas and then writing/speaking with penpals from sites like Interpals
Personally, I wouldn't waste time on Duolingo. only if bored.
I would always recommend Michel Thomas esque systems for a beginner to get up to speed. Then I'd say "go for it".
Granted, it's tougher with certain languages to do that, but yeah.
Michel Thomas doesn't have an Irish course
Ah yeah, there’s some online courses for Irish though. Sponsored by Ireland gov I think

I speak Polish and some Russian, in case anyone needs practice
Or can teach me more Russian
@Rick erste Dienstag im Januar?
Damn, I need to learn Ukrainian / Russian
Anyone speak portuguese?
Kinda tempted to learn a little- I just like how it sounds
I do
Are you around a lot of Brazilians or something?
@ophiuchus I speak some continental Portuguese
Not really no- just kinda interested
@ThisIsChris it's rather different than the brazilian iteration right?
Yeah the pronounciation is different and a lot of word choices are different. I've heard it described like if a Scott, a Texan, and a South African were speaking in a room together, though I'm pretty sure it's further than that. The Portuguese people I knew would rather get a textbook in English to study from rather than one in Brazilian Portuguese, although cost and selection and wide-knowing of English in Portugal contributes to that too.
Portuguese people hate the Brazilian way lol
