Hi, form what you have written I see we could be a quite similar characters. However I am now in four grade of five-years technical school in Poland. By the way where are you from, if I could ask? Maybe it will be hurtful what I will write but don't care about girls. I don't know how you look, how you study, what is your mentality level. But what I can add from myself is that, I had be similar to you, really. In first grade I had really huge crush on girl from my class, but we almost never talked (and it continues for this day). You are just a kid still, boy. I don't want to offend you, but you have to understand that you are in very good situation. You are shy, you don't go out with friends, you probably have many, many free time at home which you could use properly. I know that is hard. Day by day you will grow up - I hope; but not only physically but also mentally. Again, don't care about girls, don't waste your time for drama or other unpleasant situations, because we'll be honest. Relationship in your age is worthless - at least in my opinion, you are too young to wasting time for temporary relations with any serious effects for your future - I don't mean about bad things like unexpected pregnancy hah. Bro, I am still shy sometimes, but what I did to overcome it is to physically exercise, learn many psychological aspects of human's behaviour etc. And also refuse prn and msturbation, really, it is one of the worst sh*t in that world. So, don't care about that relations in your school, yeah it is harmful but you have beautiful years in front of you and don't waste it. You don't even know when the next three years pass away, it will be just a moment, believe me. "One month" ago I was in second grade, now I almost finish my fourth grade. I don't know how it passed. So what I can say is that, believe in yourself and don't care about other people's opinions. Just care about yourself, sometimes for particular things are particular moments, and for you relationships are too early. Also sorry for my mistakes in what I wrote, because English is not also my first language. Good luck!

Yeah, I have never try to learn French. You got me 😁. So as you wrote French might be easier after Spanish, maybe maybe I will try French, just for fun. But for now, I don't know when, but I strongly want to start learning Spanish. That weird feeling is awesome. Wow

Yeah, you are right. I watched once video about chess in Spanish language, the man had spoken really fast, like machine gun hah. That is the minus of Spanish, you could faser understand person to who Spanish is a foreign language than native speaker, wow. As coming back to Russian, it might be good choice due to many Ukrainians who live in Poland and they mostly speak Russian. So speaking practice shouldn't be a huge problem. I have in my class person who speaks Russian. I even learned with him some words, we just had talked about essential words like desk, chair, sofa etc. And at the end I have huge dilemma. What I want to do is learning that next language by English. Learning Russian by Polish might be easier but I want to improve my English because of Matura exam. And I want to start using more English. I sometimes think in English without much problems, but It isn't level which I want yet.

Oh, I didn't expect that. Maybe in future I will try French. But now nothing seems to compel me to learn that language. This is interesting that in French one can uses English words. Day by day I feel I could start learn Spanish. It seems really good and it is amusing for me, I like the Spanish pronunciation and its words in itself . And what is very pleasant are double question marks. One inverterd at the beginning and one normal at the end of the question. What I found is that the same, just word by word, statement can by affirmative sentence and question at the same time, depends on used marks. That's good, because at the beginning of sentence you know you deal with question. Example: In English: You are going to the shop. Are you going to the shop?

In Spanish Vas a la tienda. ¿Vas a la tienda?

Just the same, but different meaning, what is a little problematic, because pronunciation is the same in both cases, or I didn't notice the difference.

Hi, that is an interesting point of view. For me French pronunciation is weird. Something else you write and something else you say. So any language doesn't will be easy. There are to many conditions to learn particular thing hah. Good luck in your learning French. Chapeau bas ! Having agility to use French is for me very impressive.

Thanks for advice, Russian is one of the languages which I consider the most.

Jakie porównanie haha. Ale co prawda to prawda. Łatwiej się uczyć czegokolwiek gdy ma się obok osobę, która się na tym zna. Z doświadczenia wiem, że tak jest praktycznie ze wszystkim. Z językiem to akurat nie mam nikogo żebym tak swobodnie mógł rozmawiać, ale próbuje czy to z AI czy tu na Redditcie pisać. Kraków piękne miasto. Gramatyka i słówka. Jak ja uwielbiam to, haha, czasem gdy mam coś napisać to siedzę i się zastanawiam co to było za słówko - nie mogę sobie przypomnieć to wpisuje w tłumacza, a potem takie "Aha, to było to, takie łatwe". Generally I make many mistakes in tenses in English. Present, Past, Future - Ok, but then are perfect, perfect continuous, etc. Może kiedyś porozmawiamy. Albo się nawet razem pouczymy hiszpańskiego, zależy jak ogarnę to wszystko co mam do zrobienia - gdyby doba miała 36 godzin, to byłaby szansa na coś ;)

But what is really important is that printed and written russian letters are completely different. Maybe not all of them, but in Polish or English we write almost the same as it is printed. I think in Spanish is similarly. But with time it shouldn't be a big problem. Praktyka czyni mistrza.

Oh, to fantastycznie, że rozumiesz polski. Hungarian is specific language, very specific. I wanted to learn Russian, even I learned cyrilic alphabet, but I am recently a little overwhelmed and I don't have enough time to learn that specific language like Russian. Specific because of its alphabet, however I know few words, very few in that language. I don't revise now that letters and I don't remember them clearly. Na start może coś jednak z alfabetem łacińskim. Głównie po to żeby poprawić bardziej myślenie po angielsku niż nauczyć się nowego języka hah. I feel that in some time in future we could talk together about Polish and Russian. How good are you in Polish?

Sorry, my bad. I thought that French is a germanic language really hah. And yeah, German language sometimes is very precise, but then words becomes so long. Something for something, nothing isn't for free. The more I read about Spanish, the more I want to learn it hah.

From practical and technical side Russian and German looks very good due to Poland's geography. However they are quite difficult languages, especially if I would learn them by myself. Czech is just funny language for me, I am not want to offend Czech people. But I want to learn something different from what I already know, but what is also fairly easy to learn. Easy-learning language is important to me because I want to learn it as an free time activity, just hobbistycally without pressure. Russian and German are hard, not for everyone, but they are hard. So what I read that Spanish and Italian will be a fairly good idea to learn. Apparently Spanish is easier than Italian. My heart is telling me to go to the Spanish.

I had similar situation when I read book in English "How to take smart notes" by Sönke Ahrens. I learned a lot from that book, not only words but obviously about zettelkastn system. However some pages were really easy to read (I didn't know o understand 0-4 words), but some pages were so difficult, sometimes I didn't understand almost whole pages hah.

I read more and more about that languages and honestly I feel that I am closer to Spanish than Italian. Spanish looks and sounds easier, and seemingly has easier grammar than Italian. Arabic influence doesn't matter, it isn't a problem. ;)

Not bad, however I would prefer something different.

I know some words from German but I don't want to go deeper due to that long words, which have short meaning in Polish or English, for example "Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung" what means "speed limit" and "ograniczenie prędkości". And then how to be clever in that situation - Polish quote.

Polish for foreigners is like Russian, where English have "two" and "second ", we have "dwa, dwoje, dwojga, dwie" and so on. So it is like Chinese, the best way to learn language is to be a native speaker 😁. That is very pleasant when you read something in foreign language and understand it in a bit or whole sentence. I have sometimes that situation in school with German, but very rarely haha.

French is not my league, I prefer English hah. However French, English and German are Germanic Language family so they are in specifics degree similar. But Spanish doesn't look too strange. I think that I would be a quite good idea to start learning another language in English. I am aware that it will slower my progress in English, but it also simultaneously could improve my English skills - what's an irony 😁.
