>>17616917
do you mean lists of books in other languages? If yes, I was thinking that. We could go from kids books to hard, experimental stuff

I've been wanting to find someone who is also in a similar situation and learning Spanish. The idea is that we would be able to text and keep each other accountable idk. I've been "learning" spanish for 5 years but haven't really improved in the last 3.

at some point I want us to compile lists of books in different languages from easiest to hardest. other than that and being more literature focused in genera, it's not that different really but I think /lit/ will benefit from having one language general instead of the occasional shitty threads we get

I would like to know how I did, honestly I had to remind myself of a couple of verbs (caliento, disolvio) and I did not know the word for law firm (bufete) and I had forgotten mill (molino).

>>17621677
I also noticed I used "lechuza" over "buho" which I presume would be the more conventional translation. Las lechuzas son más pequeñas y lo que nosotros (en inglés) llamamos "barn owls" verdad?

Carpathian Rusyn here! We're super rare so take this opportunity to ask questions

>>17624884
How many native speakers does your language have? Do people learn it? Is there any literature written in the language?

>>17624884
do you see your culture surviving?

>>17624891
In my village of roughly 5,000 people of Ruski Krstur in Serbia, we do speak our own language and have our own schools here. Although some teachers are Serbs for certain subjects, most of them are Rusyns. As for literature, I'm not too sure, but we have children's books for sure. There's around 300,000 people that are Rusyns, although I'm not sure how many actually speak it.

>>17621164
use LWT, or FLTR

>>17624901
that's a difficult question. Although I absolutely want it to, I'm not sure if it will. There are many Serbs moving into Ruski Krstur (my village) and many youths here wish to move out of the village. Back in 2003, many Rusyns moved to Saskatchewan in Canada, and there are big communities there. The children are dating people from other cultures, and forgetting the language. My own sister has married a man from Honduras and had children with him. Although this is completely fine, this is just one example. In short, I see the Rusyn culture dying out very slowly which is a shame.

>>17624950
What's that?

>>17616955
why did you quote "learning" does that mean you study like once a month?

>>17622734
no nones going understand the inpoot meme outside /int/ you autist

Is it counterproductive to learn two totally different languages simultaneously, assuming you have the time? I've been learning French for about a month on my own and have a great opportunity to learn Mandarin.

gonna start collecting lists of books for different difficulties in different languages. Shall I use the levels (A2, B1 etc) or more easy to understand categories like kid's books, YA etc?

i find if you want to learn Serbian easily, have a copy of the alchemist in Serbian and one in English and compare the two, it helped me relearn stuff.

I think more easy categories, I have no clue what "a1" means

>>17627735
also, what about poetry?

Do you guys take notes while learning?

>>17627851
how do you mean?

>>17627858
Like, writing things down if you want to remember them?

>>17627871
definitely. my method is that I explain it to myself as best I can, then I limit myself to, say, 20 words. then 15, then 10 and maybe then even 5. even if the 5 word explanation isn't useful, the process of abstracting the concept that far is

>>17627735
I think I will do it in categories as they are easier to understand and allow more freedom. what difficulty categories would you sort books into. here's my initial thoughts:
>kids picture books
self explanatory
>easy chapter books
stuff like roald dahl, maybe for 7 to 11 year olds
>YA
harry potter, hunger games level
>easy novels
orwell, george eliot, steinbeck. great but not hard
>hard(er) novels
pre ulysses joyce, war and peace, maybe Dostoevsky
>hard
Ulysses, Shakespeare, basically stuff that plays with language a lot and so may be hard to non-native speakers

if you disagree, either with my categories or my choices for them, let me know your ideas. also, as you can probably tell, I divided these with prose in mind. please let me know of your ideas for dividing poetry

seems OK

which romance language has the best literature (no french, i already know it)?

Should I be using some sort of additional resource on the side with LLPSI? I've only recently started it and so far I'm just using it and checking words I'm not 100% on with a latin dictionary. Is that good enough to get through it all?

>>17629333
Get Latine Disco, a more through grammar guide than what is provided at the end of each chapter on LLPSI, and the exercise book "Pars I Exerciia Latina I" off libgen. Download anki and get the premade LLPSI deck.

>>17629385

>Я хoчy ecть чтo-тo, нo чтo?
Кyшaть is a more colloquial way of saying eat which you might also hear. Чтo-нибyдЬ is also technically correct.
>мнe нpaвитьcя caлaт, нo y мeня нeт caлaтa.
>я пoйдy в pecтopaн.
The word for “will go” in this situation is perfective. When you learn new verbs try to learn the imperfective and perfective forms (not all verbs have both). It’s definitely one of the more challenging aspects of Russian grammar coming from English. Also verbs of motion can be challenging so those are worth studying as well.

>>17627960
pls answer

here's some (easy) translation exercises for you:
I eat it
I don't think that that is a good idea

I think the best option would be to make a chart that represents it on a spectrum like pic related.
Maybe with a "language difficulty" axis and a "plot difficulty" axis I'm not sure

>>17631606
yeah, maybe that's a good idea. I'll start collecting some book lists today

вoт, пpocти, нo "кyшaть" звyчит нeмнoжкo пo-дepeвeнcки. нaдo ли peкoмeндиpoвaть иcпoльзoвaниe этoгo cлoвa инocтpaнцaм или нeт? пo-мoeмy, нeт. ecли ктo-тo мнe тaк cкaзaл бы, тo я eмy или ee cкaзaл бы, чтo тaк нeльзя.

for the learning anon: кyшaть doesn't sound colloquial but uneducated. you're too new to want to toy around with registers of language. just learn the standard, and neutral colloquial phrases.

>>17624884
apparently there are ~2.8k of you in croatia. I speak a few slavic languages. not yours, though. do you have any example document, poem or story, I could take a look at?

>>17631409
Thanks for the corrections and advice! Most of the resources I have been using apparently teach very formal Russian, so that's why the vocabulary I know may sound stilted. I'll make a point to focus more on the verbs as you said.
>>17632165
Thank you for clarifying.

>>17632198
btw, (I'm the anon who is against using кyшaть), make sure your textbooks are new. new new. soviet russian is different than 90s russian is different than today's russian. also 00's internets language is very much not today's internets language. grammar is same but everything else..

btw re: your sentences. "Maлeнькиe мaгaзинчики" is too much. diminutives are good, but can sometimes change the meaning. in any case, pick one: [adjective meaning "small"] + noun, or just deminutive without such adjectives.

>>17631618
Just curious, what languages are you starting with?

>>17633102
any

>>17633102
>>17633111
though probably with focus o French, German, Spanish, Italian and maybe Russian as they're probably the most learned

.

>>17626088
yeah if I was being paid to learn Spanish I certainly could be fluent in it by now but as it goes currently I probably put around 1 hr weekly towards studying. It's not enough to gain much more knowledge but it's enough to slow the rate of decay I suppose.

NEW CHALLENGE !

>EASY :
- What time is it ?
- He's going to the sea
- He does not drink beer
- He has two cars

>MEDIUM :
-Tthe boy I met yesterday is my best friend's brother.
- Is there enough hot water for everyone?
- I've had a headache since yesterday, so don't complicate things !
- Since he has a bad temper, he will never get married.

>HARD :
- Photosynthesis is a process used by plants and other organisms to convert light energy into chemical energy that, through cellular respiration, can later be released to fuel the organism's metabolic activities.

- Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a selectively permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration, in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides.

Fair point on кyшaть. It’s definitely not necessary to use, but I think it’s worth knowing what it means. I heard it used more often in the home, among family. Very casual situations. Usually from an elder. But you are very right that as a beginner it’s best to just learn the standard language.

>>17624884
I am also Carpathian Rusyn. My family came from what is now Slovakia, very close to the border with Poland. Any resources on learning the language? Even just published books would help. My family lost it in my grandmother’s generation as they assimilated to the USA.
