Long time not posting here. Let me just clean some spider webs and... Ok. ๐ณ ๐ ๐ฑ๐ผ๐ป'๐ ๐๐ต๐ถ๐ป๐ธ ๐ ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ถ๐น๐ ๐ต๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ผ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ต ๐ฎ ๐๐ฎ ๐น๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐น Iโve come to a reflection: I donโt really need to get to ๐๐ฎ level on every language I learn. Itโs just not my goal. I learn languages that Iโm interested in, and I do it just for fun and to comunicate with people around the world. Just like Iโm doing here with you. So I decided to modify my scale, deleting the ๐๐ฎ Level row: |||| ๐๐ญ ๐๐ฎ ๐๐ญ ๐๐ฎ ๐๐ญ ๐บ๐ธ ๐ต ๐ต ๐ต ๐ต โช ๐ท๐บ ๐ต ๐ต โช โช โช ๐ฏ๐ต ๐ต ๐ต โช โช โช This way I wonโt feel frustrated trying to reach the highest level in a short period of time. I noticed this was bothering me. At some point, I forgot the reason I am learning these languages. And since lately Iโve been immersed in more LL communities, and a lot of people on those sites are like: โ๐๐, ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐, ๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐. ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐?โ. Ok, I'm exaggerating a little bit. ๐ What I mean is that they are ๐๐ข๐ฏ๐จ๐ถ๐ข๐จ๐ฆ ๐ค๐ฐ๐ญ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ค๐ต๐ฐ๐ณ๐ด. Although thatโs not my goal on this, I started feeling that Iโm not studying hard enough to master a language... But I donโt need it to be perfect, I just want to be able to talk to people, learn their cultures; to sound like Milla Jovovich and ฬถtฬทoฬท fฬทaฬทkฬทeฬท Iฬทโmฬท aฬท sฬทpฬทyฬท. In short: It has to be interesting and fun. From now on I will concentrate on leisurely reaching a ๐๐ฎ and only then, I will consider getting a ๐๐ญ if I want or if I need it for something like a job application. #LingoNoise #LanguageLearning #English -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- P.D. 1: I do want to reach C2 level of english, but that's the only one for now. P.D. 2: I learned the word "leisurely" today and I wanted to use it. ๐ธ

I think so too. When I learn a foreign language I want it to be fun and not stressful. If I watch American TV news, it's very stressful because the announcer speaks very fast and a computer in my head doesn't catch up.
You know what's helping me a lot with russian? The TeaserFast app. I open the adds and they are mostly News websites in russian. โ๏ธ
You're right. They have interesting sites.
