Like I learned how to read Hangul in Korean and very basic stuff.

And then I just kind of

it fizzled out or I really like Brazilian music.

So one day I was like, oh, I should learn Portuguese, but it did not go anywhere.

So I realized that I should really probably just stick to one or two target languages, you know, so you can really focus on them.

So right now, you know, maintaining and improving my Japanese is my goal.

And I'm still at quite a beginner, you know, maybe A2 level in German.

So yeah, just trying to work on that most days and improve there.

That's right.

And that's one of the reasons that the lack of native speakers or fluent speakers, advanced speakers in my area, that's one of the reasons that my speaking skills are probably the worst compared to all of the other skills we usually talk about with language, right?

Reading, listening, writing, these kinds of things.

But yeah, so I do try to get some speaking time in if I can, like hire a private tutor on something like italki.

There's also other services online.

But something that I can do, because I'm not like a super social person, and it takes a lot of energy, honestly, to do the talking part.

Like that's essential.

That's something you absolutely must do for language learning online.

But it takes a lot of energy.

I have to be turned like on to do it.

It takes a lot of brain computational power.

So like, you know, I have that designated time, maybe like once a week or something like that.
