I’ve Learned 20 Languages, but THIS One Has Been a Real Struggle…
🔥 Learn languages like I do with LingQ 👉🏼
CC subtitles available in multiple languages.
I’ve learned 20 languages so far, and I usually enjoy the process. But one particular language has been a real struggle for me. In this video, I explain why this one language has been such a challenge for me and how it differs from others I’ve learned. I also share a clip of me speaking this language after a 90-day challenge I did in 2014.
I haven’t reached the fluency level I want yet, but I am not going to give up!
