And like, I definitely must have, when you learn a language here,

hear the pronunciation, hear the cadence.

So that's like the rhythm or the intonation that native speakers use.

Just by hearing it, eventually I think you will be able to produce it and mimic it.

And it's so important.

And then there's many different kinds of learners out there.

So yeah, the study techniques I have with Anki, you know, that could work for some of you listeners out there, not for others, you know, give it a try.

If you, if you haven't heard of it and you're feeling you're, you know, maybe could use a little more vocab under your belt, but yeah,

then I could just talk to myself at home.
