Not quite last week, but been noticing I'm getting Norwegian more and more.
Also the Norwegian police log RSS I linked to a bot here on ActivityPub is helping a bunch, specially on vocabulary.
And from what I can tell, Japanese people love to make text posts with a similar structure as that police log. That is, posts as small and direct as possible that still include the needed context. So I guess I'll pay more attention to those too.
Any further info/links to that Norwegian police log? Sounds interesting for practicing small bits of the language.
Ah, sorry, forgot to mention. The ActivityPub bot created from the RSS is @api.politiet.no.politiloggen.v1.rss@rss-parrot.net, and the RSS link itself is https://api.politiet.no/politiloggen/v1/rss, from the https://www.politiet.no/politiloggen/ page.
Thank you!
I've nearly learned all of morse code
Cool. That's something I've always wanted to do.
I've started Swahili this week, but memrise has some differences that my native-speaking girlfriend has already pointed out.
Pretty slow, because traveling for the past few days... So just doing the daily Anki decks now (for vocab practice). French class for tomorrow is cancelled due to a massive national strike
Still allegedly at "A0" in French despite going at it for three months now, which is annoying... I'm still waiting for the breakthrough. I can do almost all the points on A1 but in a real situation I'd just freeze
Self-confidence in my studies was pretty high this week. I'm on pace to finish this Tobira chapter in a total of 18 days or so (including the workbooks), which is an amazing speed improvement from before. That puts me on pace to finish the book in spring, which feels really great for my N2 plan. There's still the whole listening comprehension thing I have to figure out, but right now that's a Future Me problem~
Also pretty excited because I finshed my Anki reviews in one pomodoro today. I'm thinking within a month I'll start to see some real results from shifting my time from Anki to more reading.
