Seas, Zdravo, Hey ya’ll 👋🏿! I’m Dača / Danny. I’m both a language learner and linguist. I’ve been missing my language learning community. Looking forward to connecting with all of you here on this platform! #langsky #langtwt #languagelearning
Hey #langsky,
Which kind of linguist are you?
As a budding linguist in undergrad, I identified as a socio-cognitivist—now, my perspective has shifted toward integrationist! ❤️

I’ve finally found time to watch 100 Años de Soledad, and it’s absolutely brilliant and stunning. I also love watching shows in the original language (Colombian Spanish) with subtitles in a target language of mine (Croatian). ❤️Does anyone else love to do this, #langsky?

Day 2 of #Kwanzaa:
1/ Today, we muse on #Kujichagulia, the principle of defining, naming, creating, and speaking for ourselves. It reminds us of the power we hold to shape our own identities and build a future rooted in our values and dreams. 🌟

💯 - this mostly checks out for my journey. First I learned German formally and Spanish informally.Then I learned Japanese formally and Chinese and French informally. After college, I moved to Austria and learned BCS along with some Italian and Romanian. Now I’m onto Arabic, Dari/Farsi, and Pashto. 😍
Want to become a polyglot?
Master one Slavic, one Romance, and one Germanic language (besides English). If your native tongue is one of these, you’re already ahead!
This trio gives you a strong base to branch out into any language.

In thinking about Rohn’s quote with regards to language learning, it feels a bit limiting. As a #languagelearner, my journey more closely aligns with the following:
“You don’t have a home until you leave it, and then, when you have left it, you never can go back.” – James Baldwin.

Serbia: the construction accident that triggered nationwide protests - New Eastern Europe
The construction disaster at the railway station in Novi Sad in Serbia is much more than a tragic accident.

this is a very well written letter by the students in #Serbia and if I was a politician anywhere, I would pay close attention to this.

I just love bearing witness to indigenous languages surviving. More and more efforts to keep Cree alive are growing, with classes and tools helping new generations learn. 🔥💪🏿

Is anyone using ChatGPT or any other AI tools to study or teach your target languages? 🧐 If so, what’s absolutely working for you?! I’d love to put together a thread of resources. 🤗

I’m on the hunt for original Serbian books that fall into these genres:
• Fantasy 🐉
• Young Adult 🌱
• Adventure 🗺️
• Mystery 🔍
I’m really into books with Serbian folklore, mythology, or unique cultural perspectives. Any recommendations for must-reads? Hvala unapred! 🙏

1/ The recent charges against Luigi Mangione don’t sit well with me and has raised quite a few key questions I’ve been thinking about today. In short, what does terrorism mean? Who decides? Why does it matter?
