There's a tiny town in Mexico where a few thousand people speak a dialect of Italian called Véneto Chipilegno. I spent 24 hours there practicing "guerrilla language learning" -- relying only what can be learned on the ground.

The style of this mini-course is inspired by the formats of the following books: - The Art of Peace by Morihei Ueshiba - Tao Te Ching by Laozi - Hua Hu Ching by Laozi - The Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi - The Creative Act: A Way of Being by Rick Rubin In Classroom: https://www.skool.com/linguablox/classroom

Marhaban bikoum ya shabaab. I'm beginning work today on the 20 Day Modern Standard Arabic Video Course. 20 days, 30 minutes a day, using nothing but a notebook. The course is available now in the Classroom at its temporary price, and you'll also see that by upgrading to Premium Skool, you'll have unlimited access to all courses, past, present, and future: https://www.skool.com/linguablox/classroom Your satisfaction and success in these courses means the world to me because it allows me to shift focus away from Private Lessons, and work full time on producing Video Courses for you. So thank you all very much for helping make the Video Courses a success so far, and I am looking forward to seeing your progress in Modern Standard Arabic beginning today. Shukran!

Thank you to everyone who is taking the 20 Day Spanish Notebook-Only Video Course. I'd like to know what course(s) people would like coming up.

Hello everyone. Back with another subjunctive. Ignore the grammar. Embrace the pattern. Two cups, same main word. The subjunctive word we’re going to play with is pudiera-I could. First cup is “I wish I could…” “ Ojalá pudiera…my examples: i wish I could go to the cinema, I wish I could read Latin, I wish I could learn Arabic. The next one is similar. “If I could…”. “Si pudiera…” my examples: if I could speak, I would do it, if I could, I would do it for you, and if I could, I would cancel it. Asking a question doesn’t use the same verb for ojalá pudiera so for less confusion I didn’t do a question cup. So, what would you like to say for I wish I could… or if I could…? Please feel free to share notebook style, linguablox, whatever method you choose. I use canva cups for these or linguablox so you don’t have to figure out how to read my writing, lol. Grammar lesson will be in the comment if you’re interested.
