@annabethxchase i forgot all of those oops. i don’t think i payed attention in primary or high school really haha. i still don’t know what verbs, adjectives, nouns and whatever the others are. 

i must admit effect and affect gets me everytime !

@ecla34 RAVEN was a life saver for me too! Since learning it I don't think I've ever mixed them up!

I'm thinking of making a thread for German stuff (because it's the only second language I consistently keep up with ) does anyone want to make one for other languages? It seems as though we've got a couple of Spanish speakers on here (Dora the Explorer binge watching sessions, anyone? )

I'm learning Korean at the moment. It is really hard but I'm determined to learn.

Hey, @Jade2004, I can imagine learning Korean is difficult! I was wondering if you have used the app, Duolingo, before? I'm currently using it to learn Japanese. I've also previously used it as a study tool when I was studying Spanish at uni, and I've found it really helpful in learning a new language. What do you think of this?

@Jade2004 Cool! Korean is an awesome language to learn; at least their alphabet and pronunciation is much more straightforward than english!

Learning Korean sounds so cool @Jade2004, and welcome to ReachOut! Are you using any specific programs to help you learn?

Hey! French, at least in my experience, is super easy to learn until a certain level and then it gets HARD but i guess, like anything youve just gotta stick with it. I'm currently learning Russian and learning a new alphabet is an expereince

Hi @KaiRoe! It's awesome that you're learning Russian! Learning a new alphabet is definitely an interesting experience when we're so used to the English alphabet! How is learning the pronunciations of words in Russian?
