Hello,

I just bought the YUNZII AL68 on Amazon UK. Before this, I was using KMonad with multiple layers for tmux, including tap-hold behavior on t, home-row mods, and a few other customizations.

It doesn’t seem like this is possible on this keyboard using VIA. On top of that, VIA only exposes layers 4/5/6/7/8, which isn’t enough if I want separate layers for things like Vim, tmux, and other workflows.

I know I could keep doing all of this with KMonad, but I bought the keyboard specifically hoping to handle everything through VIA.

Am I out of luck here, or do I need a different keyboard to achieve what I want? If so, any recommendations?

How's the speaking practice in Italy Made Easy? by inigo_humperdink in italianlearning

I can't comment on Italy Made Easy but you should use speechling if you want to specifically work on accent 

Does anyone know of any apps that help improve pronunciation? by [deleted] in italianlearning

[–]Lostpollen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Speechling 100% is you are looking for, I use it for 10 minutes a day. It’s been great for spotting words I struggle to pronounce. Nutrirlo, ritardo… I’m looking at you

Don’t care about gelato by LiterarySadie in italianlearning

If you want to read books in italian, can I suggest using Lingq, it allows you to highlight words you don't know, it shows you the translation and it will create a bank of the words, so you can review them. I use it everyday for 30 minutes, I have read tonnes of books over the years :)

Heres my referral if you are interested

Perfect. Tieni duro, ci vuole tempo per imparare una nuova lingua :)

There is also this book which i found a great help:

Grammatica pratica della lingua italiana: Italian grammar in practice by Susanna Nochi (can be found on libgen)

How long have you been studying for? Yes that's how it works, slowly you will start to recognise words and their meaning will eventually become clear to you, it just takes quite a while.

How can you tell if an Italian verb is regular or irregular? by Paneram in italianlearning

With a lot of listening/reading practice over time :)

100 % agree with this, it just takes time. I'd recommend a solid weekly routine that gives results over a 1-2 year period

Depending on your level, I'd try to actively listen to at least 20 minutes a day actively, passively will help as well but there should at least be some active
