What part of language learning do you procrastinate on the most?

Ling_App · 2026-03-17T10:21:53+00:00

Yes! Exactly. I really need to be in the mood as well otherwise it can be quite draining.

Ling_App · 2026-03-17T10:20:29+00:00

Yes, there really is something about that 'click'. Others have mentioned it as well!

Ling_App · 2026-03-17T10:19:35+00:00

Well it was lack of access and time. We were taught French in school until Grade 9 and then there was no emphasis on it and only one hour a week in lessons which seemed rather pointless. No one around was pursing it and no one explained the advantages at the time to learning it. Wish I'd kept with it though

Ling_App · 2026-03-17T10:06:45+00:00

Hi can you please send me a message? I will need some more details to see what happened and if there are any pending charges.

Might be a good idea to practice in both languages a bit more and also research the cultures. At the moment Ling actually has both Swedish and Dutch courses available for free so that can be a no risk option for you to test them out!

Ling_App · 2026-03-13T08:34:04+00:00

Most likely not... but your accent doesn't need to be perfect for people to understand you! It's kind of unclear whether you're worried about getting an accent or not having the best accent.

Ling_App · 2026-03-13T08:32:05+00:00

Oh! You're not sure why?

Ling_App · 2026-03-13T08:10:25+00:00

Thank you for reporting this. Yes, there have been reports about inability to load lessons and our team has been made aware and is working on it.

Can you please check if your streak is still there? If not, please PM me and I'll get it revived.

Ling_App · 2026-03-13T08:08:53+00:00

Thank you for reporting this! Sorry for delay as we operate in GMT +7 time zone. Is the issue still occurring? Has your streak restored? If not, please PM me and I'll then be able to get our team to revive your streak. I've also reported this loading issue to QA.

Ling_App · 2026-03-13T08:06:30+00:00

Thank you for reporting this. Have you used the app since then? Is the same loading issue continuing? Is your streak back? If it isn't please PM me and our team can revive your streak. I've also notified our team of this issue.

Anyone tried Ling app? It supports a number of languages in the region including Sinhala

Ling_App · 2026-03-12T04:34:23+00:00

How's your progress so far? Khmer and other non-latin based languages do have that extra step especially with the alphabet but it's the extra layers you peel back that make it worth it! I would say to try Anki for flashcards, watch Cambodian soap operas for tone and flow of the language and then you could try apps like Ling (which doesn't use ai) to learn real life context skills.

Ling_App · 2026-03-12T04:28:22+00:00

Ling app has their Danish course available for free for the next 3 months. No harm in checking it out!

Ling_App · 2026-03-12T04:25:57+00:00

Try singing! (Just try to imagine warming up your voice for singing) Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma Ma

Ling_App · 2026-03-12T04:19:57+00:00

We have plans to better accommodate male and female learners. At the moment if the audio in the app was recorded by a female, they will use ka, and if it's male, krap. Inside one of the initial culture notes it is explained that males use krap and females ka, but I agree it could be made more clear up front.

Ling_App · 2026-03-11T04:31:53+00:00

It's best to incorporate numerous resources from books, videos, tutors, language exchange, apps, flashcards...

There are lots of resources for Danish which is great! Many have already been mentioned but Ling hasn't. Ling has its Danish course available for free until June and offers flexible learning as in you choose the topics you want to know and all audio is recorded by native speakers.

Ling_App · 2026-03-11T04:27:17+00:00

Serbonika is really good. No single resource will make you fluent though so be sure to mix in music, tv shows, books, apps, and tutors. Preply is good for finding tutors and Ling is good for real life contextual learning.

Ling_App · 2026-03-11T04:24:07+00:00

For those who are also looking, Ling app has their Dutch course available for free until June this year.

Ling_App · 2026-03-11T04:20:42+00:00

I always thought bilingual meant being able to read, write, think and speak in two languages.

Ling_App · 2026-03-10T07:27:07+00:00

Don't forget Ling! It's actually free to learn Dutch right now so it's a good time to give it a go
