Thinking about how in Czech we say “fart it in” when we want to say “add/put it in” and I think that’s beautiful

5 common words my Chinese classes and textbooks didn't teach
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy learning with classes and textbooks. But no single resource or method can teach you the entire language! Here are 5 words (do particles count as words?) I see/hear all the time in native content that I never learned from classes or textbooks. Looking back, I'm surprised these weren't taught!
不仅 | 不僅 bùjǐn - not only (or 不仅仅 | 不僅僅 bùjǐnjǐn)
有这种看法的不仅是我一人。 他的病情不仅不见好转,反而更加严重了。
即 jí - namely / that is / i.e.
闽即福建省的简称。 元旦,即公历的1月1日,是世界多数国家通称的“新年”。
平时 | 平時 píngshí - ordinarily / in normal times
你平时都喜欢做什么? 他的打扮跟我平时遇到的人不大一样。
稍 shāo - somewhat / a little
请稍等。 说到这儿,他稍停了停。
呗 | 唄 bei - modal particle indicating lack of enthusiasm / modal particle indicating that things should only or can only be done a certain way
你不同意,那就算了呗。 既然不懂,你就好好学呗。
PS: I actually checked the textbooks I used in college to confirm that these weren't covered. But of course they could have been included in your textbooks.
Definitions are adapted from MDBG.

蛍葛[Hotarukazura] Lithospermum zollingeri
蛍[Hotaru] : Firefly
葛[Kazura] : Creeping plant; also written as 蔓
Native to East Asia. It grows in a bright thicket. The grass is about twenty centimeters tall, and spreads out with long runners (creeping branches,) each time putting out roots. The name was given because the pale blue flowers, which bloom sparsely and abundantly in the shade of other plants and trees, are like fireflies. The flowers have a rather strong scent, but it is not a bad odor.
It is said to be declining in its numbers in many areas. For the time being, it still seems to be safe in the places I visit.

100 Days of Productivity [Day: 80] || 100 Jours de Productivité [Jour: 80]
interesting conversations were had in the office today. since I work alongside a few other FSL people [French Second Language], the conversation came up about how best to learn. Duolingo came up & all of us agreed that while it's a good app to practice already learned skills, it provides very little in terms of actually learning the language. before I enrolled in actual French classes, I used a combination of other language programs, listened to podcasts that were in slow-French [as people tend to speak quickly when talking in a language they're familiar with] but one of the biggest things that helped me learn was actually watching children's shows/reading children's books. no matter the language, any content produced for learning-age children use the basics of that language in order to communicate.
combining oral practice [speaking] as well as listening to & reading in a language are all essential in fluency. I started learning French in grade school at a young age, & even now I still struggle sometimes, especially when using it to communicate professionally. my grammar still isn't perfect, but thankfully I'm in an environment where I get to cultivate those skills daily - plus I have this blog where I write in both languages as regularly as I can :]
currently listening // we fell in love in october by girl in red
Des conversations intéressantes ont eu lieu au bureau aujourd'hui. Come je travaille avec quelques autres personnes en FLS [français langue seconde], la conversation a porté sur la meilleure façon d'apprendre. Duolingo a été évoqué et nous avons tous convenu que, bien qu'il s'agisse d'une bonne application pour mettre en pratique les compétences déjà acquises, elle n'apporte pas grand-chose en termes d'apprentissage réel de la langue. avant de m'inscrire à des cours de français, j'ai utilisé une combinaison d'autres programmes linguistiques, j'ai écouté des podcasts en français lent [car les gens ont tendance à parler vite lorsqu'ils parlent dans une langue qui leur est familière], mais l'une des choses qui m'a le plus aidé à apprendre a été de regarder des émissions pour enfants ou de lire des livres pour enfants. quelle que soit la langue, tout contenu produit pour des enfants en âge d'apprendre utilise les bases de cette langue afin de communiquer.
la combinaison de la pratique orale [parler], de l'écoute et de la lecture dans une langue est essentielle à la fluidité. J'ai commencé à apprendre le français à l'école primaire à un jeune âge, et même maintenant j'ai encore parfois des difficultés, surtout quand je l'utilise pour communiquer professionnellement. ma grammaire n'est toujours pas parfaite, mais heureusement je suis dans un environnement où je peux cultiver ces compétences quotidiennement - en plus j'ai ce blog où j'écris dans les deux langues aussi régulièrement que je le peux :]

Duolingo Sucks, Now What?: A Guide
Now that the quality of Duolingo has fallen (even more) due to AI and people are more willing to make the jump here are just some alternative apps and what languages they have:
"I just want an identical experience to DL"
Busuu (Languages: Spanish, Japanese, French, English, German, Dutch, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese, Polish, Turkish, Russian, Arabic, Korean)
"I want a good audio-based app"
Language Transfer (Languages: French, Swahili, Italian, Greek, German, Turkish, Arabic, Spanish, English for Spanish Speakers)
"I want a good audio-based app and money's no object"
Pimsleur (Literally so many languages)
Glossika (Also a lot of languages, but minority languages are free)
*anecdote: I borrowed my brother's Japanese Pimsleur CD as a kid and I still remember how to say the weather is nice over a decade later. You can find the CDs at libraries and "other" places I'm sure.
"I have a pretty neat library card"
Mango (Languages: So many and the endangered/Indigenous courses are free even if you don't have a library that has a partnership with Mango)
Transparent Language: (Languages: THE MOST! Also the one that has the widest variety of African languages! Perhaps the most diverse in ESL and learning a foreign language not in English)
"I want SRS flashcards and have an android"
AnkiDroid: (Theoretically all languages, pre-made decks can be found easily)
"I want SRS flashcards and I have an iphone"
AnkiApp: It's almost as good as AnkiDroid and free compared to the official Anki app for iphone
"I don't mind ads and just want to learn Korean"
lingory
"I want an app made for Mandarin that's BETTER than DL and has multiple languages to learn Mandarin in"
ChineseSkill (You can use their older version of the course for free)
"I don't like any of these apps you mentioned already, give me one more"
Bunpo: (Languages: Japanese, Spanish, French, German, Korean, and Mandarin)
