See title. I’ve been to quite a few local language meetups and saw lots of people IRL who are learning languages: wondering how are y’all doing too
For myself… learning French due to necessity. I am making progress, just veeery slow. I underestimated how difficult it would be (a lot of vocabs between English/French are similar… but the languages themselves are not!)
我正在学习中文。中文很难！
I took a break from learning Chinese for a while due to personal stuff being busy and am trying to get back into it. Chinese is a very logical language, I think, and learning it is fun and interesting but challenging. I was just about HSK1 level, I think, before I stopped.

Hey, 我也会中文。我在广州出生，在中国读书至到二年级，然后就出国了。我会粤语和国语 (aka: 普通话)，会基本的字（会看不会写 xD，用拼音或粤拼来打的字）。很 Interesting 的语言。Many words/phrases are self explanatory, unlike English, lol.
I think the grammer and sentence stucture is a but non-standard because I think Cantonese sentense structure is a bit different(?) and the English as my now-primary language messes with it a bit. I can understand like most of Mandarin or Cantonese drama without subtitles, except maybe an occasional vocabulary that I don’t have in my Lexicon yet.
