Barely and I've just scratched the surface, but sure 😂 It's a good sentence to know. #hyperpolyglot

Saved my duolingo streak in the last minute (last hour lol) #hyperpolyglot

Temba, after being told "ты такой хороший котик." He's over it and wants to snuggle 😹 #hyperpolyglot

Oh my годушка did I just volunteer to support/participate in a D&D game designed to help beginning Russian learners learn and speak more? Fuck yes, I did 😻 My feralness will be off the charts. Prepare for me to be utterly insufferable 😹 #hyperpolyglot #life

Holy shit, I understood every word in this video, despite only relying on auditory cues to piece together new words (no visual cues because I was driving). I noticed I fell into the trap of trying to translate each word, then find the meaning within the sentences at first, but then I stopped and thought in sentences/phrases, which helped a lot. I know it's only A1 level and it's silly to get excited about it, but I didn't think I'd be able to actually understand this just from listening. #hyperpolyglot

Listen to some Romanian comprehensible input while walking on the treadmill #hyperpolyglot

Listened to some Russian comprehensible input while driving home #hyperpolyglot

None of your business, Duolingo 😹 #hyperpolyglot

Did a few review lessons in Polish again after meeting a new Polish friend in a coworking space and deciding to help each other, and holy shit I forgot how drunk of a language Polish is 🤣 I'm not yet sure if being familiar-ish with Russian will help or hurt yet, but there are several similar-but-not-quite words between the two. And for the pronunciation of chleb, I just wrote хлеб because 🤷‍♀️😭 #hyperpolyglot

Did a lesson, even while exhausted and completely unmotivated. #hyperpolyglot

Yay #hyperpolyglot

Order Stephen King books in Russian because even though I won't understand 95% of it, it'll force me to learn fast 🤣 #hyperpolyglot

Keep the streak #hyperpolyglot

Establish a daily 10-min writing habit in Russian to produce language instead of just recognizing and reading #hyperpolyglot

I feel so called out by AI, but...it's not wrong 😹 #hyperpolyglot Context: I learned a new sentence through Clozemaster "Я занимаюсь йогой." (I practice yoga.) So I did my own little deep dive to understand why it used that verb instead of "to do" and why it was the instrumental instead of accusative case. That took me down a rabbit hole of intransitive verbs and getting more sentences with [subject] [intransitive verb] [activity/topic], and two of the new verbs were интересоваться (being interested in something) and увлекаться (being passionate about/into something), which led to figuring out the differences between those (since the translations were the same for the two different verbs). A few back and forths later, and this happened lol.

squeeze in a quick Duolingo lesson before midnight (still got that friend quest deadline looming 😬) #hyperpolyglot

register for a class in Russian on folklore (because this is one of many language islands I'm trying to build and Duolingo is certainly not going to teach me this vocabulary lol). I expect this to take forever to write the captions from the video, then translate them and add vocab to Anki to practice. #hyperpolyglot

meet a fun new friend on a discord coworking server who shared lots of Russian resources and offered to practice with me since they're a native speaker #hyperpolyglot postnauka.org/courses arzamas.academy I may have gotten overly excited about this one (translated from RU for accessibility) 😹

Lol I knew every word except the verb (though I translated it as cats __ on the person), but I eventually gave up because the words that'd fit I knew and they weren't that word. Turns out it says "cats hunt humans," and I just know the video is probably something hilarious but educational 😹 #hyperpolyglot (And hey, at least I know that verb because I'm definitely not going to write a story in Russian about an assassin.)

Did a thing #hyperpolyglot
