Do you ever feel like you abandon a language when you do not get to practice it as much as you would love to? Do you ever feel like giving up a language if you feel like you do not have enough time for it?
I wanted to be transparent and show you where I am at with "my weakest" languages: Italian, Russian and Swedish. I have not had as much time as I would love to for them and they have indeed suffered a bit in 2023... Should I give them up completely or what is my plan for them in 2024?
(This video was recorded at the end of 2023 and I thought I would post it earlier, that is why I keep saying things like "next year" referring to 2024)
Feel free to activate subtitles in English if needed and let me know if this has happened to you as well, I would love to get your perspective on this.
00:00 - Intro
00:22 - Russian update
04:06 - Italian update
05:53 - Swedish update
09:23 - Conclusion, how I feel about it and my plans for 2024
What do I use or recommend for Russian, Italian and Swedish?
- Russian:
@russianprogress
@RussianWithMax
- Italian:
@italianoautomatico
@piazzasquare
@italianoin7minuti
-Swedish
@swedishlinguist3083 and his podcast "Simple Swedish Podcast"
@LattSvenskaMedOskar and his beginner-friendly podcast "Lätt svenska med Oskar"
There are many more, but those are the one I use the most or that have helped me the most.
Please leave a comment to let me know what you thought about it and to give me feedback ?
Happy New Year!! :)

15:07 - What is your focus when learning a language?
18:58 - Do you structure your language learning?
21:28 - Experiment - how much Catalan can Stefani understand? (subtitles available)

Start using Speakly today, you can try it out for free for 7 days, and get a 60% discount if you join the annual subscription: https://speakly.app.link/couchpolyglot
Today we are talking about the app "Speakly", which was created by two polyglots who speak 7 languages. While testing it, I did have the feeling that it was created by someone who knows what to focus on to be successful when learning a language.
This is a sponsored video, but I am being honest in the review and focussing on the things that I personally liked most. As you know, I only review products or apps that I would actually recommend :)
In case you want to try it out, it is available on both web and mobile (Android and iOS), so you can use it on the go or also from your couch ;)
00:00 - What is Speakly and who created it?
01:00 - Why do I like it?
02:04 - My favourite feature
04:07 - Use music to learn
05:10 - Grammar feature
06:56 - So, what is Speakly best for? And what feature will I not use and why?

Hej, mina vänner! ??
I hope you find it interesting, if you want you can activate subtitles. Please be aware that the English subtitles might not be 100% accurate, I did my best! If you find any mistakes, please let me know, I am happy to correct them. The Swedish subtitles are done automatically and might contain mistakes too.
For those who do not speak Swedish: I have been learning it for more or less 1 year and still make a lot of mistakes, so don't be fooled by how fast I speak, I have like an intermediate level with still lots of basic mistakes, but I am happy I can communicate ?
Here you will see my first chat in Swedish:

In this video you will learn very basic vocabulary in Spanish. At the end of the video you will be able to write a small text. Please write your basic text in the comment section and do not worry about making mistakes, since it is part of the language learning process.
If you guys find it useful, please let me know and I would create more "Español lento" videos in the future. Don't hesitate to give me feedback so that I can improve my videos in the future :)
In order to see the English translation or the Spanish transcription, please activate the according function in YouTube (on the lower right hand side of the screen).
