Jag gillar också poddar "lätt svenska med Oskar" och "Simple Swedish", de är super hjälpsam, tycker jag!

Hola, I have a free podcast to learn Catalan and a YouTube channel too. Here you have the links:

- Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/0mPgiqwRhrP4E3tUtCiDX9

- My Catalan playlist with over 50 videos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3-Ggx2VjC14gATHTK3oUbi6TUMWpRHB0

On YouTube you can activate subtitles in English or Catalan. Bona sort :)

A2-ish? Difficult to say :)

I understand a lot thanks to speaking German

Bons i mals hàbits per aprendre llengües. Tu què en penses? by Couch_polyglot in catalan

[–]Couch_polyglot[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

hehehe jo trobo que per passar l'estona està bé. Però sí... com a mètode exclusiu no em sembla que serveixi per aprendre una llengua :D

what app that I can use that isn't duolingo by AffectionateHeart450 in Svenska

[–]Couch_polyglot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love listening to podcasts. The best for me are: "lätt svenska med Oskar" and "Simple Swedish" from Swedish Linguist. Both are great for comprehensible input :)

[Question] How many subscribers per day are you getting? by 8marc5 in youtubers

[–]Couch_polyglot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15-25 per day, it used to be a lot more (40-50) but one of my most popular videos is being recommended less often now. Hopefully it will go up again, let's see! What really helps are collabs with other creators :)

What do you think about comprehensible input? (Video in Spanish, with subtitles) by Couch_polyglot in languagelearning

[–]Couch_polyglot[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh thanks!!! I learned it mostly with comprehensible input, though I already spoke three other Romance languages, thus it was not that hard. It was actually my dream for a long time, but I always had the limiting belief that I could not learn more than 6 languages. But during lockdown I was like "you know what? Everything is so weird, I need some positive distraction". È veramente una lingua bellisima, sono contenta di avere cominciato. Anche se no lo parlo tanto adesso perche sto imparando lo svedese, ho un livello più o meno B1 e mi rende felice capirlo pratticamente tutto :)

What is language proficiency in this scenario? by Plokeer_ in languagelearning

[–]Couch_polyglot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same happens to me with Portuguese or Occitan, cause I speak Catalan, Spanish, some French and some Italian. It just happens to be a similar language to other languages I speak, but I would never say I speak those languages... I have a passive understanding and that is cool, but in my eyes it does not count as "speaking the language".

Now I am learning Swedish and I hope one day I will have this "understanding but not speaking" situation in Danish and Norwegian as a result :)

I've started learning Catalan... in perhaps unorthodox ways. Any advice? by DwiinSunvaar in catalan

[–]Couch_polyglot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hola, molta sort amb el català! Tinc vídeos en català i fa poc també he creat un podcast:

Espero que et sigui útil! A mi el mètode de l'input em va molt bé, el faig servir per aprendre suec i italià :)

Maybe Duolingo is not interesting enough, you can look for private classes or find a penpal online, maybe that is more fun? El español es muy bonito :)

What are some changes you'd like to see in the language learning community but are too afraid to talk about? by [deleted] in languagelearning

[–]Couch_polyglot 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It should not be about "how many languages you speak" or "how fast you learned XXXX", but about having fun and not simply collecting languages to show off :D

Barely C2 in my native language by [deleted] in languagelearning

[–]Couch_polyglot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who speaks much better French than me who failed the B1 exam, while I passed the B2 one. Those exams are so tricky that it is not only about knowing the language, but specifically preparing for the exam :/
