No, I just use google translate to research some simple cognates. If I wanted to learn a language I'd use duolingo. If you really wanted to learn a language properly, you'd just take normal classes because Duolingo will never be able to teach you a language fully. I spent seven years in Mandarin lessons in "normal classes" and learned less than what I could learn in 30 minutes from DuoLingo in various other languages. |

I have a collection of DNA and mindstates of various men that I can use my Biovitae to alchemize sub-sophont erotorganics. My hobbies include consuming media alchemized from my Fabacian, meddling in the affairs of various universes and making things better. The third one I am having trouble with but if Tim stopped believing that the omniverse is consistent and just fucking murder his dad, we'll all be grand.

I occasionally pick up rare games, and do some fishing.

He's definitely some sort of negative adjective, but boring might not be the most fitting. |

"Cat" is Luxembourgish for cat, according to clicking a random language on google translate. "קאַץ" is Yiddish for cat, once again according to google translate. "Kissa" is Finnish for cat "ကွောငျ" is Burmese for cat Does that help? Wait, Kissa? That's kind of funny. There's a cat character in one of the things I like called Kisa. |

Every amateur linguist will turn, at some point in their life, to Finnish for fun. Look to see if the writer(s) of the thing that you like has a background in linguistics - I bet a million dollars that they might have a background in linguistics. |

I spent seven years in Mandarin lessons in "normal classes" and learned less than what I could learn in 30 minutes from DuoLingo in various other languages. Classes and Duolingo only get you so far. You do realize you have to actually speak with local speakers in order to actually improve, right? |

Kinda difficult when your first language is the lingua franca of the western world. Yeah and Mandarin is the most common in your part of your world. It's not hard to find people to talk Mandarin to. |

Actually, the most common thing I hear is an English-based creole that is impossible to understand. |

I see dex took a class in basic technobabble, at least. I'm currently applying for the advanced technobabble class. |

Because Duolingo is good at teaching you basic shit, that's it. |
