Look, I knew five languages by age 19 and now I am learning like 3 more. I work as a language instructor and a consultant. If I can give language learners only one advice, this is it.
STOP LEARNING WORDS ON THEIR OWN.
You're doing yourself a disservice by learning lists of "30 words you must know!" "100 most common words!" like it literally means nothing if you cannot use those words in an appropriate context with proper grammar. So what you actually need to do is learn those words via example sentences.
Of course, sentences have more words so you may think you're learning less but you're actually learning the way to use it in context. That's what's important.
Language is about communication, which also means if you want to learn languages, you have to observe how people communicate with each other universally. Native speakers never have a list of words they know and they don't count every single new word they've learned. So why are you doing it to yourself? What native speakers do is listen to the new word, remember the context they're spoken in, and keep using that word in that context. And that's why people go "wait, you can use that word LIKE THAT?" all the time. So you, a language learner, are also allowed to do that. I'm not even saying those word lists are useless but they're the most useful AFTER you've known most of them and are trying to go over them for practice etc. Native speakers do click on those word lists to check out how many words they don't know or to remind themselves of those words or to learn some facts about each word. That should be your goal as well.
Learn sentences. Learn them in context. Do not fall into the "I must know xx amount of words or I'm a failure at language learning" trap perpetuated by bloggers or youtubers or whatever. Have fun with it!

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
๐Ÿ’Œ: inside-my-phone format is back!๐Ÿƒ do you agree/disagree with my MTL rankings? what motivates you? ๐Ÿ‘€
i can be a more empathetic, understanding, and supportive person who makes sure to only cuss people out in languages they don't understand so that their feelings aren't hurt โค๏ธ
i can talk to more people who will probably think i'm an idiot because of how badly i speak their language ๐Ÿ‘„
i can nurture my self-confidence/-esteem as long as i don't think too hard about how much i don't know ๐Ÿฅฐ
i can read more books, articles, people arguing on the internet, etc. ๐Ÿ“š
i can travel to foreign countries more easily until someone asks me to translate something important and i mess up and land us both in prison or something โœˆ๏ธ
i can unlock new work opportunities until someone asks me to translate something important and i mess up and land us both in prison or something ๐Ÿ’ผ
i can multitask better even though i shouldn't even be doing it in the first place ๐Ÿคนโ€โ™€๏ธ
i can watch my favorite shows/listen to my favorite songs without subtitles/translations so that my brain rot can continue in peace ๐Ÿ“บ
i can, on the other hand, stop losing brain cells?? ๐Ÿง 
i can eavesdrop on more people, probably at the grocery store ๐Ÿ™‰
i can show off at work and other places where it is appropriate to show off irrelevant skills โœจ

Different words meaning 'to use'.
์ด์šฉํ•˜๋‹ค - to utilise something for the beneficial facility or function it offers (can also refer to taking advantage/exploiting in a negative way)
์“ฐ๋ ˆ๊ธฐํ†ต์„ ์ด์šฉํ•˜์„ธ์š” = please use the trash can
์ด์šฉ์ž = a user/visitor of a facility or space
์ธํ„ฐ๋„ท ์ด์šฉ์ž = a user of the internet
๋„์„œ๊ด€ ์ด์šฉ์ž = a library goer
์‚ฌ์šฉํ•˜๋‹ค - to use, operate or employ a tool of some kind
์ปดํ“จํ„ฐ๋ฅผ ์‚ฌ์šฉํ•ด๋„ ๋˜๋‚˜์š”? = May I use the computer?
์‚ฌ์šฉ์„ค๋ช…์„œ = instruction manual (lit. usage + explanation + document)
์‚ฌ์šฉ์ž = consumer/utiliser of something
์ŠคํŽ˜์ธ์–ด ์‚ฌ์šฉ์ž - user(speaker) of Spanish
์œ ์šฉํ•˜๋‹ค - to possess uses/functions, able to be utilised positively
๋ณ‘์„ ์—ฌ๋Š” ๋ฐ ์•„์ฃผ ์œ ์šฉํ•ด์š” = it's useful/great for opening bottles
์ด์šฉํ•œ ํ‘œํ˜„์„ ๋ฐฐ์šฐ์•ผ ํ•ด = you must learn useful/useable phrases
์“ฐ๋‹ค - to use or employ something or wear (in terms of some accessories) (also means 'to write' and 'to be bitter'.)
๋ˆ์„ ์ผ์–ด = I spent my money
์•ˆ๊ฒฝ์„ ์“ฐ๋Š” ์‚ฌ๋žŒ = a person who wears glasses
์ด๊ฒƒ์€ ์–ด๋””์— ์“ฐ๋Š” ๊ฒ๋‹ˆ๊นŒ? = where/what is this used for?
์—ฐํ•„์„ ์“ฐ์„ธ์š” - please use a pencil (whereas ์—ฐํ•„๋กœ ์“ฐ์„ธ์š” would be please write in pencil
tldr: ์“ฐ๋‹ค is more simple and common in speech but is essentially the same as ์‚ฌ์šฉํ•˜๋‹ค. ์ด์šฉํ•˜๋‹ค has a different nuance of referring to making use of a facility offered by an object or space (e.g. using the bathroom, the internet, public transport) rather than ์“ฐ๋‹ค/์‚ฌ์šฉํ•˜๋‹ค being the personal, often physical, manipulation of a thing (e.g. using toilet paper, using photoshop, using a pencil). ์œ ์šฉํ•˜๋‹ค is not about the actual use of something, more a remark on something's ability to be used/useful. The recurring ~์šฉ character of these words comes from the Chinese/Hanja ็”จ which refers to use, function, utilisation, consumption.

Hancom Typing Game
This site is in Korean but has the option for English in the top right corner. The site offers options for learning the proper typing form and going through the keys, typing out certain words, and typing out sentences as well. In the virtual keyboard it will tell you where the key is and show proper hand position as well, and just above will measure your speed.
I think this site works out well because there are different options to pick from; so if youโ€™re a beginner just starting out you can focus on just learning the keys, then move on to words, and then full sentences. Thereโ€™s opportunity for every skill level and benefits even people just wanting to improve their typing speed or form.
Thereโ€™s also a leaderboard for people that like a bit of competition. Thereโ€™s individual ones for each option, words, sentences, and stories so you can use that to fuel your drive to master typing!

life lately // enjoying myself so hard it's getting dangerous ๐Ÿคญ
in this issue ๐Ÿ”: brain-rot target language input ๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท & if icarus was a workaholic ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿ’ปโœ๏ธ๐Ÿ
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"language learning" but it's just brain-rot ๐Ÿง 
๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต Shogun (9/10) โ€” objectively a really good show, but a lot of death and triggering topics for me personally ๐Ÿฅบ
๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต Spy x Family (5/10) โ€” i can only watch one episode at a time now because the plot is getting increasingly ridiculous, please don't be mad at me if you're a fan ๐Ÿ˜…
๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ณ When I Fly Towards You (6/10) โ€” it's silly, but it's also just what you expect from kids of the characters' ages and at times it does tickle that part of my brain that likes candy (i still like Exclusive Fairytale better though, ๅฏนไธ่ตท ๅผ ้™†่ฎฉ)
๐Ÿ‡ฏ๐Ÿ‡ต Petrichor ่Šฑ้‹ ใ‚ญใƒงใ‚ฆ (10/10) โ€” my new favorite album!! โ˜บ๏ธ even @pianistbynight likes this one and she usually prefers classical music!
๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท Seventeen on Shuffle (10/10) โ€” my usual suspects never miss ๐Ÿ˜Œ
too close to the sun but finally looking in the mirror โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿชž
i gave myself a headache from working too much in poor physical conditions again ๐Ÿ˜ญ i didn't notice until the end of the day because i was on a roll at work and it's rare when that happens, so in a messed up way, i feel it was worth it?? i bought a new chair and rearranged my desk setup a little to be more ergonomic, but that only does so much when i have one good night of sleep a week ๐Ÿ™ƒ
my poor sleep is low-key my own fault though since i write and binge cinema therapy videos late into the night because i love doing those things so much that my brain won't shut up until i do them ๐Ÿ˜›
in other news, i made my favorite pasta recipe!! ๐Ÿ˜‹ but i burned myself and didn't notice until i started washing the dishes in hot water โ™จ๏ธ wow, me enjoying myself so much i don't notice i'm hurting myself is a real theme here... ๐Ÿ™ˆ something to work out in detail in my diary some time ๐Ÿค”
๐Ÿ’Œ: how's life been treating you lately? ๐Ÿ’
Tumblr media
bonus: @pianistbynight tagged me in this fun picrew game (how you look now vs when you were younger) and it made me miss my good eyesight ๐Ÿฅฒ everyone, take good care of your eyes by taking lots of outdoor breaks (with UV protection!!) ๐Ÿ‘€
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
๐Ÿ’ž: @shoosiopao @tea-tuesday @tokidokitokyo @ink-stained-clouds @ilonar0 @cravingstudyvalidation @getbreaded @nelyastudies @roxysbbg @cinammon-buns and anyone else who made it to the bottom of this post ๐Ÿ˜‰

Have you ever heard of the term "์†Œํ™•ํ–‰"? "์†Œํ™•ํ–‰" is a shortened version of "์†Œ์†Œํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ํ™•์‹คํ•œ ํ–‰๋ณต," which translates to "small but certain happiness." It's a way of saying that happiness doesn't have to come from big accomplishments or expensive possessions. Instead, it can be found in the small moments and experiences of everyday life. ์†Œ์†Œํ•˜๋‹ค (adj): small ํ™•์‹คํ•˜๋‹ค (adj): certain, sure ํ–‰๋ณต (n): happiness
So, what does โ€œ์†Œํ™•ํ–‰โ€ look like?ย Here are a few examples:
์‚ฐ์ฑ…ํ•˜๋ฉฐ ์‹ ์„ ํ•œ ๊ณต๊ธฐ์™€ ํ–‡์‚ด์„ ์ฆ๊ธฐ๊ธฐ (Going for a walk and enjoying the fresh air and sunshine)
๊ฐ€์กฑ์ด๋‚˜ ์นœ๊ตฌ์™€ ์ข‹์€ ๋Œ€ํ™” ๋‚˜๋ˆ„๊ธฐ (Having a good conversation with a friend or family member)
๋งˆ์Œ์— ๋“œ๋Š” ์Œ์‹์ด๋‚˜ ์Œ๋ฃŒ ์ฆ๊ธฐ๊ธฐ (Enjoying your favorite food or drink.)
๋ช‡ ๋ถ„ ๋™์•ˆ ๋ช…์ƒํ•˜๊ฑฐ๋‚˜ ์ •์‹  ์ˆ˜ํ–‰ํ•˜๊ธฐ (Taking a few minutes to meditate or practice mindfulness)
๊ทธ๋ฆผ ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ธฐ, ์ถค์ถ”๊ธฐ, ์Œ์•… ๋“ฃ๊ธฐ ๋“ฑ ์ž์‹ ์—๊ฒŒ ๊ธฐ์จ์„ ์ฃผ๋Š” ์ทจ๋ฏธ ํ™œ๋™ํ•˜๊ธฐ (Doing hobbies that give you joy, such as drawing, dancing, and listening to music.)
So take a moment to appreciate the little things and find joy in the present moment โ€“ you might be surprised at how much happiness you can find in the small but certain pleasures of life!
