irken flashcards! :)
for my friend's birthday today, i made a set of flashcards for learning the irken alphabet. this uses the AMAZING irken DOOM font by the IMMENSELY TALENTED @invaderlarx and @khaliarart, which is the most canon-adherent font, to my knowledge.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the deck is pretty simple: each card has a front (irken) and back (english), which can be flipped in anki. the pink highlighted english letter shows you whether the irken letter on the flipside is capital or not.
i could definitely see myself doing variations on this; if i've made any mistakes or there's something else you'd like to see done with these, absolutely lmk!
you can download the anki package here. actually can someone let me know if that works lol
have fun studying, irken soldiers! 🫡

German and Portuguese learning on Anki
I'm finally almost done with my German A2 vocabulary Anki deck. I only have 800 new cards left (which seems like a lot, but at the beginning it was 2000+) and if I study 30 new cards a day, I'll finish them in 27 days, just on time for March. I already study 20 cards a day so it shouldn't be that more difficult
Once I am done with the new cards, I won't start the B1 deck like I had planned, but complete every repetition in the A2 deck AND, at the same time, start the Portuguese deck.
While the German decks are shared decks, the A1 Portuguese Vocabulary deck is my own. I couldn't find a shared one that I liked. I plan on publishing it if anyone is interested. It's not ready yet, but almost. It should be around 2000+ words too if I remember correctly. So if everything goes well, I'll be able to complete it by June, which is when my Portuguese exam is supposed to happen.
I haven't been studying much Portuguese lately and it stressed me out to no end but now that I know that I'll focus on it starting at the end of the month, I'm much more relaxed. I need to remember to find an easy book in Portuguese too and to start watching that Brazilian tv series again. But not now! Those are problems for March Me!

Working on creating an Anki deck for my Korean studies at the moment instead of working on my actual class homework. I just don't feel like creating a marketing budget at the moment and writing a six page paper. It's due tonight, but I trust my ability to do it this afternoon all in one go. 🫶🏻

It’s mostly just “Would he vibe with this?”
I see him as someone that likes literature. Doubt he’d be interested in writing, but reading or studying different types of books.
I have less of an explanation for history. I just feel like he would like it?
I do really like the thought of him taking “english literature and history” as both would be great for his search for Lietners.
so sorry that it took this long to get around to answering this-- but I LOVE THIS!!
Same !! Like, honestly, given his statement & how he says he's not too into speeches, i don't see him as a writer, but a degree that facilitates his life goal?? isn't that what everyone does?? if it just so happens that his life goal is *squints* chaining his being to the vast emptiness,, well,,, we love him anyway (because of it)
and history tracks, because look at those books he was buying - the average age of those things was somewhere in the 100-200s!
anyway look at the course description for that course!
Tumblr media
Now, obviously, he only ever completed year one, and the course was clearly different in the theoretical time that he took it. but?? it's 100% up his alley :)
like, i'm still a maths-truther because i'm a delusional stem student because fractals and i'm a sucker for this xkcd in particular;
Tumblr media
but englit/history student mike makes a lot of sense!

Im trying to study Thai but i feel like im not making any headway because im stuck with the tones. The book that im using says the alphabet and the tones should be learned together but i just want to move onto vocab and grammar. I know that by doing so i wouldnt build a strong foundation for the language but i just want to understand my bls without relying on subs 😖
Any tips are highly appreciated. Thank you!
Oh god, the tones 😭 I’m still so freakin’ bad at them. The whole reason I got a tutor in the first place was to help me figure out the tones. The thing that has helped me most—aside from strict repetition—is this YouTube video. I rewatch it probably once a week. She has a whole series of tone practice videos which are extremely helpful.
If you have a few extra bucks, I would also recommend booking a lesson with a tutor. I use iTalki and when you sign up they give you 3 trial lessons for super cheap (I think it’s like $6 per lesson). Just tell the teacher you’re a beginner and want to practice your tones. I have severe social anxiety, so I was hesitant to take that step, but I’ve actually really enjoyed it.
As far as whether learning written Thai is necessary, my tutor told me that learning to read/write will help with the pronunciation of unfamiliar vowel sounds, but it’s not really needed if your overall goal is just to understand spoken Thai. I actually elected to learn both spoken and written Thai and I honestly don’t think the written Thai has helped my speaking at all. I would definitely prioritize vocab and grammar first.
Resources I have used include: Ling app, Mondly app, Pimsleur, and the Thai Pod 101 course on Udemy. For basic vocab and grammar that you can study alone, I would recommend Ling—it’s basically Duolingo, but for Thai. That’s what I did first and it gave me a strong base for everything else. Like you, I also tried several textbooks, but for a Westerner, I think it’s almost impossible to learn Thai that way. You really need to hear what the words sound like.
All of that to say that I wouldn’t let the tones discourage you because I can usually figure out what people are saying using context clues. So even if you can’t speak the tones appropriately, you should still be able to watch a show and understand what they’re saying.
Jeez, that was a lot of info. I hope you find at least some of it helpful!

semi-recently started using the skritter app to learn chinese (it's good! highly recommend!) and they've got all these premade decks of flashcards for, you know, normal shit. HSK vocabulary! computer terms! kangxi radicals!
meanwhile i am attempting to learn to read tropey xianxia novels, so i'm making a deck of xianxia terminology for myself and i keep needing to add new words to the skritter dictionary for stupid bullshit (latest word i added: "dual cultivation"), and it feels like. sorry hi hello i'm in this temple of learning exclusively for stupid bullshit purposes, don't mind me,,

A1 spanish resources
my biggest recommendation is dreaming spanish. it's very popular on reddit, and i would highly recommend the site as your first attempted resource. (even if you tried comprehensible input in another language & it didn't work for you.) (here's my tag.)
educational programming for A1
destinos - popular, dramatic & well-written, 10/10 loved this
extra - sitcom
muzzy in gondoland - very famous resource to learn spanish, usually available online free
hablamos español - made by a german company, to teach spanish!
salsa - really cute kids show
reading
schoolbooks from mexico
¡hola lola! - $ - read it and loved it. it's repetitive in the best way, muy divertido, and i'm excited to get through more of his graded readers.
i also recommend olly richards' stuff at like a2+ - $$.
assimil books - $ - super famous publisher in language learning, a classic, might be able to find these for free
learn natively has more books rated by learners - $
vocabulary
great method for memorizing vocab
anki - favorite vocab app (try for a monolingual deck, & don't use it if it's not working. there are other ways to learn!)
alternatives to anki
english explanation
language transfer - also popular on reddit
speaking
italki - $ - great website to connect to tutors and teachers
**edited when studying at b1 level. see my a2 post here, and my spanish tag here.

duolingo should really have kanji earlier in their course. I feel like a lot of people seem to be unnecessarily afraid of kanji.

Hi! I was wondering what kind of app you have for your flash cards?
Anyways congrats on getting through half of them ⚘️
hi!! i use the app anki for flashcards :) it’s literally essential for med school where there’s an impossible amount of info to learn at once. u can make different decks and it tests u in such a pattern that it shows u a card, u answer it and decide whether it was hard/ok/easy, and the app then calculates when it should show u the card again based on the difficulty. i can’t recommend it enough tbh
