I kinda wanna just go on Language Exchange platforms and like talk to my Cantonese/Mandarin speaking compatriots lol
I speak native-level English so I’m pretty sure I can find a bunch of people willing to talk to me, and I can practice my knowledge of Chinese xD… and maybe disassociate the trigger of “Hearing Cantonese = Oh Shit, is mom nearby” because omg literally I hear Cantonese and my heartbeat goes up through the roof. I could use some desensitation by forming actual positive experience with the language.
