At work a customer asked me how I learned Spanish and I simply explained I taught myself. He seemed skeptical, and asked me where my family is from. I told him my dad is Mexican, but stressed that he didn’t teach me Spanish. I did. Then the guy called me egotistical for clarifying. 😂 wtf? #spanish

I was able to practice my French on Saturday at work and I am so thrilled at how well it went! ❤️ But I’ve also had another language on my mind. Albanian. I looked into resources for learning it and unfortunately there isn’t much 😭 #albania #albanian #languages

Subí un video en TikTok/YouTube diciendo básicamente que me parece un poco gracioso cómo muchos hispanohablantes se quejan cuando un estadounidense dice que es “americano”, pero cuando yo digo que soy “estadounidense”, me responden: “ah, eres americana”. (pt 1/2) #hispanic #español #estadounidense

Recently bought an old kindle off of eBay. I never saw the point because I’m so used to reading on my phone, but omg, I have been convinced that it is 100% worth the money to have an ereader.

in a voice room today someone asked me if i'm algerian lol. honestly, that is a huge ego boost if my accent in french doesn't automatically give away the fact that i'm from the U.S... but also, this sounds like an insult to algerians 😂 #french #languagelearning #delf

Sous les deux mandats du président George W. Bush, ce faucon en politique étrangère, durablement influencé par les idées conservatrices, incarna les dérives de la guerre contre le terrorisme. Il s’est éteint à l’âge de 84 ans, a annoncé le 4 novembre sa famille.

5 months ago, I accidentally told a coworker I was pregnant while practicing French. Last week we had a real conversation and she was shocked at my progress! She told other French speakers at school, so now they all talk to me in French. I'm actually doing it this time! <3

The other day I had a Lyft driver from Cameroon & I was lucky enough to be able to practice French with him! He was very nice and said he was surprised that I could have a conversation because apparently most Americans who tell him they’re learning French only know how to say “Bonjour” 🤣 #french
