My Virtual Reading Room

I used it to start learning Spanish back in 2016 (but then bolstered those efforts in other ways). Then I used it pretty successfully with Portuguese, too: I've never tried speaking Portuguese, but I can understand it when it's spoken, and I can read it. I was less successful with Indonesian--the grammar there is very different, and I think I'd benefit from an actual class with a teacher. (I did take an online class through the Indonesian embassy, and that did help me get some concepts down, but I definitely feel like I need more along those lines.) Then recently, but without much commitment, I've used the app for Italian and Haitian Creole. Italian is another romance language, so that's pretty easy, and Haitian Creole is a creole of French, which I learned in high school, so that's pretty easy too.

My main foreign language--the one I know best--is Japanese ... though it's been many years since I've deployed it in other than the most casual way. I learned that through classroom instruction and then living in Japan. Tetun (the lingua franca of Timor-Leste) I learned through online classes ... that one's like Portuguese: I can understand it, but I don't know that I could actually speak it very well. And now Ticuna :-)

You post in Russian (it's Russian, yes? Not Ukrainian or something else written in Cyrillic?) Is that a second language for you or a mother tongue? What other languages have you learned?
