“gee Ms. A Bad Idea, how did you get so smart at languages, I keep trying but it never sticks”

The trick to actually really for real learning a language when you’re not immersed in it as the living language of your everyday life is to WRITE IT DOWN

ON PAPER. WITH YOUR HANDS

USE A BETTER PEN, THOSE CHEAP BALLPOINTS WILL INJURE YOU

JUST COPY A WIKIPEDIA ARTICLE IF THAT’S ALL YOU HAVE, IT *WILL* HELP

@0xabad1dea Exactly!! Writing a language physically helps so much more with the memory (and has been proven to be more effective than typing.)
