2021 Language Learning Reflections + Goals in Review

Let's look back on my language learning plans and goals for 2021, the progress I made this year, and the things I still need to work on. Sorry about the audio for the first half of this, my hard drive died (RIP) and I had backups of everything but the first external audio clip.
2022 goals video will be out later this week!

I feel ya on the dabbling. Feel like i want to keep trying lots of different languages, but actually want/need to focus on the main ones first.

[@prestokrs1]

It's crazy how different we are with languages, yet we both love language learning. That's the really cool thing about learning languages. There's no wrong way. First of all my goals are always time based. I never think about how many books or movies just how much time I spend with books and usually TV series instead of movies. And also my motivations almost never change. It''s always the same for years in most cases. 😂

[@PolyglotProgress]

Agreed! I love getting to hear about the ways other people learn and see how they're similar to or totally different to how I learn!

Hi Abigail, Great to see that you've made such a huge progress in bulgarian. It's truly not easy to learn, but as is with everything, it takes time, effort and practice to master it. Not many people are interested in learning bulgarian though, so it's really good to see that you are. And if you want to be more exposed to it, I have tons of bulgarian music on my channel (playlists) that you can listen to, I can also recommend you some other podcasts (in bulgarian) here on KZbin (people just talking about random stuff and the world), some movies too, though we haven't had a proper cinema in decades, although bulgarian subtitles to Hollywood movies might help you a lot if you want, anything that I can help you with your progress, don't hesitate to ask. Other than that, Since we are almost 2022, Happy New Year! :)

Unfortunately, I started learning English two years ago and I took it seriously just about a year ago. I'm very happy with my progress but there are so many languages I want to learn that I kinda feel stuck in English. Could understand everything you said and your accent is lovely. I'll try to take IELTS by the end of the next year and, depending on my results, I'll be able to start learning other languages like: Norwegian and japanese. In my opinion, Japanese is kind of a cute language and it's an asian language which makes it more challenging.

[@languagelearningdabbler]

Your comment is very well written. Congratulations on your progress with the English language!

Beyond inspiring to see how much you analyze yourself and your progress. It isn’t easy to look yourself in the mirror but necessary to achieve your goals!

[@PolyglotProgress]

Thank you! I'm glad you found the video inspiring :)

[@annap1871]

I don't focus on writing (except in English); however, I like to write a summary of what I was doing during the week to check the daily words I don't know.

[@PolyglotProgress]

That's a great idea! I'll definitely try that out at some point this year as it sounds like a great way to notice gaps in vocabulary!

[@melaniegrace7707]

Always love to hear your updates. Could you please share some info on ASL resources, and where the courses are available? Would love to hear more about anything related to that.. well really I'd be happy to hear more about any of the languages. Excited to see what the new year brings. Cheers :)

[@PolyglotProgress]

Sure! The courses I've been taking are with Queer ASL (they're remote but based out of Canada) and I've really enjoyed them. The other site I mentioned in this video is lifeprint!

Thanks for the look inside your mind. It's a very interesting place.

[@PolyglotProgress]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@farhanashome3202]

Great upload thanks

[@PolyglotProgress]

Thanks for watching!

[@JonathanOlelo]

Interesting reflection to not feel like being a beginner in a language. I think I'm always a beginner in at least one language I learn 😅

[@PolyglotProgress]

This year is the first time I've ever felt this way! I usually love being a beginner in at least one, but currently my brain is NOT having it 😂

[@user-hj6mh1nz7s]

My main goal is to expand my English vocabulary and be more confident in speaking, because I'm struggling with it

[@PolyglotProgress]

You've got this! Good luck!!

[@AngyBT]

Loved your video, very inspiring! Btw, im willing to get my french back this new year so i would really appreciate french content creators and/or booktube recommendations. I think I might enjoy that as well, but every time I've looked for french youtubers I just havent really connected with any of them. Thank you! And thank you for your updates too ♡ (Of course, if any one that reads this wants to throw a recommendation, please feel free to do so!)

[@PolyglotProgress]

I'm still looking for more francophone booktubers to follow but I currently can recommend Audrey - Le Souffle des Mots, annelitterarum, léo, and Christiane Tran!

[@AngyBT]

@@PolyglotProgress thank so much! thats more than enough, ill make sure to check them out! 🥰🥰

Honestly my goal at the start of the year wasn't clearly formulated, but it was probably just to keep going with Japanese. I'd say I've definitely accomplished that, although I've also added Mandarin into the mix, and come much further than I thought I would to be honest. I've now read a huge chunk of my first novel in Japanese, and am probably on track to finish it within a year of having started it.

[@PolyglotProgress]

It sounds like you had a great year for language learning! Congrats on your progress with your Mandarin and Japanese, I hope your novel reading keeps going well!

[@AmbassadorSoriano]

Have you read the PJ series before? I find that if I don't pay close attention, even looking up every word I don't know, I have no clue what is going on. Maybe it's easier if I knew the plot beforehand. This is my first pass through it. I just finished book 4 (in French), which was really confusing for me because I didn't pay as much attention while reading. I will finish the 5th book hopefully soon, then I either want to start on the next series in Spanish, or improve my listening comprehension by watching youtube videos with subs in my target language. Thanks for the progress updates. I love hearing them.

[@PolyglotProgress]

I haven't actually! This is my first time reading the series, which I think is part of why it's taking me so long. I've been reading a contemporary rom-com type book in German too and I find I'm able to read way faster since the vocabulary is much more familiar. Luckily beyond it being slow and needing to look up lots of new words I haven't had too much trouble! I find I'm able to follow the plot and when I do struggle to understand a scene I just look up a summary online or ask my partner who's read all the books before. I think I definitely do have to pay more attention than if I was reading them in English, though! Good luck with all of your goals this year! I'm glad you enjoyed the video :)
