What is one word you always misspell or mispronounce?
Be honest: we all have that one word that our brain just refuses to process. 🧠❌ Maybe it’s a word in your target language that feels like a tongue-twister, or a word where the spelling makes absolutely no sense (I'm looking at you, French vowels!). For me, it was (?) an English word: I lived in England for more than 10 years, and it took me FOREVER to learn how to write Wednesday properly 😭 I still have to double check from time to time

I think every Japanese learner goes through the pain of シ vs ツ and ソ vs ン. I found the attached image very useful.

The One-Sentence Challenge: Get corrected here!
Write just ONE sentence in your target language in the comments. I (and the other members) will check your grammar. Don't worry about being perfect. That's what this thread is for!

The Duolingo Debate
What do you think about this (or similar app)? Is it a legitimate learning tool or just a game that makes you feel productive?

I've never used it but I had a friend who did Spanish for more than a year. He couldn't have a conversation but he knew the word for spider.

I would love to learn Bahasa Melayu, but I'm finding I consistently have higher priorities.
