original2Where can I find people to practice speaking Polish?
A friend of mine said that he found looking for streamers on Twitch that stream something you’re interested in with your target language. Cos they most likely have a discord server, and it gives you the opportunity to converse with their community, and you’ll often be welcomed and helped out.
Blaze (he/him)Also Polish discord servers are a good place to start. From top of my head I know streamer ones like JacexDowozWideo or ARHN.EU which both should be welcoming, and even though we’re on lemmy I know that the subreddit r/polska also has a discord server as well, so it should be a nice place to start.
You could try italki. I’ve not used it myself but it’s got a good reputation.
Poland.
Came here looking for thia comment.
I only made it because someone had to, and no one had yet.
MandoYou might be on to something here
I don’t know how active the polish community on it is in your area, but there’s an app called Amikumu that exists to help connect people with people that speak the languages they are learning.
Depending on where you live, if theres a decent sized polish populationo you can also ask around at polish social clubs, churches, bars/restaurants, etc. Odds are that someone there either speaks at least some polish or knows someone who does.
Not sure if you are willing to goonb reddit but I’ve found speaking partners on r/languageexchange in the past
How did r/languageexchange work? I mean in terms of description, rules and community interactions
Mostly offering language help and receiving it. I connected with a French guy and helped him with his German. In exchange he helped me with my French. We just connected over reddit everything else was done between us
So I went looking for lemmy communities and kbin magazines on lemmyverse and found !language_exchange (not going to link to the lemmygrad version; tankies who explicitly worship Stalin and Mao and deny the Tiananmen Square Massacre and other horrors don't deserve any sane person visiting their instance).
I haven't
CommunityLinkFixerBotHi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
ansikNot sure if this is a universal concept but most larger cities around here have 'language cafes', both for learning the native tongue and for practicing a new language
EavolutionHelloTalk is an app that's designed for this. It basically just lets you message people who speak a certain language.
You can learn Polish (basic phrases), although Poles speak English.
I met a girl from Finland on Saturday, she knew a few words, and so we chatted in English.
Wykop.pl is a Polish (centralized) social network and they will love someone who wants to learn the language.
