Well, they say better late than never... it's no secret that this blog post was a bit of a rush at the last minute. I've been a little conspicuous only by my absence in the online language learning community as of late, but I promise I have a good reason. You often hear that buying … Continue reading Goals for the year that wasn’t
Tere-tere, kallid lugejad! Hello there, dear readers! It's always a pleasure to be back here with you. To be perfectly honest, though, I had absolutely no idea what I was going to write about today. I've been working full time (from home) throughout lockdown, and because of a huge increase in life admin, I've not … Continue reading Üks päev korraga
Hello everyone! I wanted to do something a little bit different this month, and try and get to know you all a little better! Instead of doing a bog-standard post introducing myself, I took to Curious Cat to see if there was anything you guys were wondering about me… and boy, did you guys deliver! … Continue reading Getting to know you
The Eurovision Song Contest is a staple of my year. I start looking forward to it in about November, after listening to the songs from previous years so much I start to get tired of them. But the excitement for the coming year fills me with a sense of nostalgia, so I can enjoy them … Continue reading Shine a Light
So, I know that I mentioned it in passing in my last post, but I think it’s time to address the elephant in the room. If you’re reading this far in the future, then you might have heard about the Covid-19 pandemic. If you’re reading this on the day I publish this, then you’re probably … Continue reading A promise to be kinder
Добрий день! Як у вас справи? Мене звати Спрокскатан, дуже приємно познайомитись! Я англієць. Я живу у Ньюкасл-апон-Тайн, місто на північному-сході Англії. Я працюю як перекладач.

So, this year has … Continue reading LangJam – Ukrainian
This past month I've been so busy with work and other commitments that I've barely had any time for anything else. My language books have mostly been gathering dust, I haven't had time to even think about writing and even my Netflix account called the police remotely to carry out a welfare check. So to … Continue reading A General Update
Hello there, and a very happy new year to you, wherever you may be. Well then! Here we are. New Year’s Day, 2020. The beginning of a new decade - I suppose, depending on time zone, some of you might already onto the 2nd of January, but let's not get into that, it's far too … Continue reading Dawn of the Decade
So, today is the first day of December. That means that Polyglot NaNoWriMo is over for another year, and I suppose you’re wondering how and what I ended up doing. Well, I toyed with the idea of trying to teach myself French through the medium of writing… but in the end, I figured it would … Continue reading A Swing and a Miss
The time has come, the walrus said, to talk of many things! Of shoes, of ships, of sealing wax - of cabbages and kings! ...sorry, I'm not sure what happened there. Nevertheless, it’s time for Polyglot NaNoWriMo! This is something of a placeholder post because pretty much all of my writing energy for this month … Continue reading Let’s Go, NaNoWriMo!
