It's curious how often this mistake appears in the media. 'Acta' is a feminine noun, so the correct form is 'la última acta', not 'el último acta'. Native fluency doesn’t always mean grammatical accuracy.
'Último' is an adjective and must match the noun’s gender which is feminine.

A very interesting episode! The host encourages embracing the journey, celebrating small wins, enjoying the process, and making learning fun rather than setting rigid goals. Whether through music, books, or conversations, he emphasizes that motivation comes from pleasure, not pressure.

Before the YouTube era, this was one of the few comprehensible input videos ("Hallo aus Berlin") I could find when I started learning German. Someone gave me a VHS or DVD with some videos, and this was one of them. 😁

A very interesting podcast episode! The host talks with Sietske, a podcast creator and language coach from Flanders. They discuss Flemish, including Dutch words that are unfamiliar in Belgium and vice versa, the different dialects in Belgium, etc.
