Best of luck to everyone on their 2025 language goals! 😊 You can get great language audio input here on youtube with bilingual stories, they will read a sentence of a story in English then read the same sentence in target language. Polyglot Beats on youtube does that well for multiple languages and there other channels for specific languages... its been helping me get passive listening and learning when going on walks... time is by FAR hardest obstacle in language learning - anything that can get us some passive learning is a plus😊🎉🎉🎉 happy new year, 2025 here we come!!! 😊

happy new year, thank you for the comment and the tips! I found Eragon in my new language and even though I can't understanding every word its such an engaging audiobook with music and all that. It has definetly helped me stay consistent.

@@bookswmadi Yeah, no problem! Polish is complicated in it’s grammar and it’s hard to master, usually native speakers make a few mistakes a day (me included lmao) so yeah, don’t worry about it, as long as you can get across general meaning, you will be all good. Also when you reach more or less fluency, i recommend reading The Witcher books, in english they are extremely watered down when it comes to vibe as polish is way more expressive.

@@bookswmadifor me, it’s almost worse in a way? Like I don’t like the it was all a dream ending at all, but, ToA’s ending feels worse because: IT DID HAPPEN, it just doesn’t matter that it did, and now hasn’t, or won’t. And now the end of my comment is confusing lol. I love time travel, but, i think that when it’s added to something that isn’t already about time travel, the story goes wrong like 70 percent of the time (even endgame which i love has a lot of problems because of its time travel). Especially if it’s last minute like it was in RoT. Like if I’m setting here three years latter, and every time i think about a show that used to be in my top 3 shows of all time, i feel rage instead of happiness or nostalgia then i think you might have ruined your show Mr. creator.

Here is the explanation: so when you said "what is that!?" That's actually like the little frog print they had in the back of their necks. Well, the spark that flew away is actually the frog print that dissappeared. By the way to people who dont know froggys power in risk/strikeback is to make everyone take risks, and ladybugs took a risk in giving the dog miraculous to felix. If i was ladybug, i would always have the snake miraculous ready, and when Hawk Moth gets all the miraculouses, ladybugs can do second chance, and then she can make felix give the miraculous back. The other thing she could've done was when her yoyo disappeared. She could've had detransformed really fast like the exact moment that the yoyo dissappeared she could transform back. Those are two options i would do .........--hope this helps--❤
