/lang/ - Language Learning General

Duolingo can be good if you want to start learning a new language from scratch
I didn't like it much when I tried to use it for Spanish but that's because I had already learnt some Spanish at school

Sounds like it isn't for me too.

What resources would portuguese learners here recommend for me?

Depends on your approximate level and the type of Portuguese
I can direct you to what I've used for European Portuguese if you want

Je me doutais aussi que ongeduldig voulait dire impatiemment mais sur le site du vandale ils traduisent uniquement en 'impatient' :/
En how am I supposed to know when should I use tonen / aantonen en komen / aankomen? Is it really non understandable when I used tonen/komen without the aan?

I finished the duolingo portuguese tree long time ago and forgot most of it
So basically A1 beginner but not absolute from scratch

[...] extraño. Agarré un disco que era blanco, o sea toda la caratula, todo, esto era lo guay del album, como os digo, es mi favorito de todos los Beatles, y por algún motivo, tomé ese, no tomé ninguno, tomé ese, y me puse a escuchar, la primera canción que sonaba era Back In The USA, que era una eh, no sé, para mi, es una que me trae muchos recuerdos, y el caso es que empecé a escuchar mucho los Beatles, así no, en casa. Además, mi padre tenía como unos auriculares de estos, y yo siendo niño además me quedan gigantescos, me los tenía que sujetar, porque eran estos que te agarraban toda la oreja. Eh, buenísimos, y entonces yo me ponía así, me sujetaba los auriculares y me ponía a escuchar. Y aunque Los Beatles no [...]

Ok, well for me I kind of "skipped" that level because I've always know a bit of Portuguese so I don't know how much help I will be
But memrise is decent for phrases etc. (Haven't really used much else in terms of apps)
A couple of decent YouTube channels are
>Portuguese lab (a mix of guides and short stories, if you can understand a bit of Portuguese she'll help you you get more used to it)
>practice Portuguese (alot of short stories and a few guides, good for practicing)
(Both are in European Portuguese)
Also I'd recommend reading the duolingo forums for additional advice, some stuff there is really helpful
Other than that Ive basically just learned through use, that's why I make lots of stupid mistakes when I do the challenges
Boa sorte amigo :)

New Lubach finally talking about another one of Belgium's record attempts.

Pretty sure aankomen/komen is arrive/come (arriver/venir).

oops meant for

Obrigado fren, I will try out your suggestions and those channels seem very useful
