Speaking has been a weak spot for me when learning a language. In 2025, I want to change that.

I chatted with three language teachers, and their ideas ranged from AI to grammar instruction to letting go of the idea of perfection.

How do you improve speaking? #langsky #linguistics

For me, Afrikaans and Spanish. Both took about a year.

I reached an intermediate level in Spanish pretty easily because I already spoke French and Italian.

I made quick progress in Afrikaans because of its simple grammar. And I was learning it for love, so... 🤣 #langsky
What is the fastest time it took you to learn a language?

For me, I'd say 9 months with Catalan but that's because I already spoke French, Italian and Spanish fluently and some Portuguese.

Where is the language learning/polyglot community at?

Also, do we use hashtags on Bluesky? I haven't seen very many. #langsky
