Yep, been hitting Japanese pretty hard the last eight months and finally feeling like I'm making progress on that intermediate plateau.

Come join us at !languagelearning@sopuli.xyz too, we're active every week!

Japanese, though I've kinda plateaued and put it on a backburner for now, and Norwegian. Norwegian so far is fairly simple (I've previously studied German and am a native English speaker so it's decently related to both), though I'm only around A2 (a bit more in reading, a bit worse at speaking).

Once my current Norwegian material runs out on Babbel, I might see what their Japanese course is actually like, but I doubt they have anything for where I'm at.

Currently studying japanese so I can play more jrpgs ;/

I've spent time studying multiple languages at once and, imho, it's better to focus on one at a time. I've limited my focus to French, currently!

I should be, I sporadically dip in and out of it but I have never been good at languages and currently have zero motivation for it so haven't done any learning for quite some time (Spanish)

Mandarin

Ayyyy, Native speaker here. I went to school in China up till 2nd grade before emigrating. Also speaks Cantonese at home.

Could probably help you... I mean for the basics at least 😉

(sorry I couldn't resist but felt the urge to low-key brag a bit xD)

Forgot how to write, but I can read the basics and can type 2nd-grade level thoughts in pinyin.

Mi lernas Esperanton! Mi faris la kviran Esperantan komunomon, !glat@multiverse.soulism.net! Se vi povas legi ĉi tiu, venu paroli!

I'm just dipping my toes into the water with German via Anki and Goethe Institutes' A1-Deutsch app.

Last night I briefly tried to find a simple grammar primer/textbook. Found a candidate or two but hoped to find some guidance here on Lemmy, so excellent post timing!

Yes! Been learning French for almost half a year now. It's more of a necessity for me & it gets really difficult at times, but I do find it quite enjoyable to be able to understand a lot of cultural stuff. Like yesterday when I was mindblown by the fact that Notre Dame literally means our (notre) lady (la dame)

I'm attempting to learn Esperanto and Spanish. I've been procrastinating a lot. I'd love to learn Indonesian, Afrikaans, and Polish. Polish is the most beautiful sounding language in the world to me.

Currently learning french, but it‘s only good enough for very casual smalltalk at the moment. I don‘t find it as difficult to learn as some people said.

I split time between Japanese and Korean. I should probably just pick one.

Love learning about other languages and cultures in general though.

I'm currently learning Mandarin. I've been going at it (slowly) for a couple of months now. I'm amazed how simplified (pun, get it?) it is compared to English. I only reading pinyin and speaking/listening. I'm not too worried about reading hanzi yet.

My whole goal to start learning was just to be able to talk to Chinese ham radio operators and order takeout lol

mentally its the thing I am worst at with subjects related to my native language being not much better. the physical equivalent for me is running. I swear I can walk about as fast as I can run long distance and for a much farther distance.

I had been practicing some reading in Spanish, and now back to grinding Japanese. Japanese is tough! But I will eventually make progress out of sheer stubbornness.
