Comprehensible Māori
I've compiled a list of TV show & movies for beginners to intermediates to watch in te reo Māori. Any suggestions are welcome.

I've written a new blog post summarising my te reo learning progress in the past month, and shared my small goals for the next month.
> "The main problem I’ve had this month was consistency in doing listening and reading immersion. Even though I find them enjoyable, other things take up my free time and I didn’t spend as much time as I want to."

100 days ago, I made a commitment to learn te reo Māori. Now, I've published a blog post to explain my approach and progress so far.
Learning te reo Māori
A mix of grammar study, digital flashcards and 'Comprehensible Input'.

@mdione this is similar to a process I've been using to learn the indigenous language of my country, Te Reo Māori, alongside a textbook. It's called Refold;
It's based on learning the 1000 most common words and basic grammar patterns, and using tv shows, films, subtitles and the like to learn and absorb a language - collectively called Comprehensible Input.

Cards in yellow (41 cards) are removed and put in an archive deck, blue cards (45 cards) are new cards I've not seen yet.
I'm doing alright, most of my cards are mature in this deck so I need to keep on top of just adding new stuff.
In my archive deck (it has cards from all sorts of decks), I currently have 2,367 cards that have been retired from spanish studies. I'll check back on how many I have overall after today.
Not all of the retired cards were T1 cards, most of these were cards where I didn't know almost all of the words in each sentence and it was like hell to get through that stage and learn. 😅 I think I know what I'd do better next time. #anki #languagelearning #ImmersionLearning #Spanish #Refold #Immersion #LanguageLearning #anki

I've let my studies dip a little bit. I've been thinking so much about this new job and worrying that it's been hard to fit Spanish and motivation for Spanish into my brain rn.
I'm trying to keep on keeping on though. The best I can.
If I do today, my anki streak will be at 78 days. \o/ #languagelearning #ImmersionLearning #Spanish #Refold #Immersion #LanguageLearning

Even though anki feels like a slog, I have some good news.
All of my immersion has been free flow today. I decided to watch Betty en NY and it's been easy enough for me to follow. Here and there I notice some words I don't know but I've been able to follow along.
The last time I watched it was when I was just starting out with Spanish and I couldn't understand anything! I had to parse every single word but now I can catch the gist of most things, it's easier than any of the other shows I have watched so far. Even easier than La Casa de Los Flores.
There are 123 episodes and I just finished episode 9. I wonder if I would have the patience to watch all of the episodes, I'm not sure but now I know what I can watch if I want some free flow time without being completely overwhelmed. #LanguageLearning #langtoot #Refold #immersion #LanguageImmersion

I've almsot done 71 hours immersion based study so far (since tracking from the end of last month) and I'm having a blast. I've returned to something that used to be hard for me to read and now it's a lot easier than it was before.
I just need to try and keep this up and maybe I can get B1 by the end of the year. #LanguageLearning #langtoot #Refold #immersion #LanguageImmersion
