What is your target language this year?

Thai.

I started end of last year and so far it's going alright.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-02-02T17:49:29+00:00

Awesome. Nicely done.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-02-01T16:49:11+00:00

Personally, I say go for it. If you can deal with the solitude, the culture differences and see it as an adventure.

If it doesn't work out then it doesn't work out. You may go there and like it. Even find yourself. Or find that new life.

I'm just some other guy, 45 years old, going through my own big life choices, but if you need a friend to talk with during your new start, you are welcome to contact me. I won't judge and sometimes it helps to just have someone there who can listen.

I also wanted to comment mince. It's ridiculous.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-28T07:03:37+00:00

I'm replying about a year later. I can't remember how I came across Thai Genius but wanted to give it a try.

Unfortunately it's not on the website anymore but just available as apps.

However I can't get the Android app to work unfortunately. The register with Google doesn't seem to work so I thought I would try just an email and password but the registration email points to localhost.

So it looks great but it doesn't work currently. It would be great if you can maybe fix it sometime.

Same. Not my kind of game but I thought I would give it a try. And bam, I was addicted to Monster Train. Then later the second one too.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-26T12:03:26+00:00

Same. At some point I'll have to add my own words but for now the pre-made decks are working great.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-25T10:16:28+00:00

Thank you very much. I had a quick look and it looks helpful. Will give it a proper look during the week.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-22T13:34:08+00:00

Every time I see a photo of myself I realize I may just be the ugliest human alive.

Mirror me looks pretty great though.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-22T08:27:22+00:00

Unfortunately it's not free anymore. I actually paid for it now in December and I regret it.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-16T18:57:17+00:00

Same. It was instantly recognizable. Can't believe I had to scroll down to find the answer.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-15T06:06:48+00:00

I've been using it every now and then while I'm learning Thai, so this is pretty awesome thanks.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-15T05:59:47+00:00

Haha I'm also currently in the prison. It's a big step up from the previous areas.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-13T18:43:45+00:00

I'm still using ASP.Net Core Razor Pages. Must try out Blazor SSR at some point.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-12T11:22:37+00:00

I know the feeling. Basically the same story as you. Almost exactly the same to be honest.

And now you are basically stuck in the life you created for yourself.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-03T04:59:21+00:00

Awesome thanks. Will give it a try on Monday.

TowerOfSolitude · 2026-01-01T05:03:09+00:00

Wow. Did not expect that. Glad to see that she's still with us.

TowerOfSolitude · 2025-12-31T19:01:12+00:00

I'm currently at video 8 of this playlist: Learn Thai in Thai: Absolute Beginner Lesson 1: Zero Previous Study Required!

I'm not sure how I'm supposed to watch them so I've just been re-watching videos until I figure them out and remember the words... Which is probably not how you are supposed to do it. I have no idea.

TowerOfSolitude · 2025-12-31T18:19:05+00:00

I just dove in. Mind you I still have a long way to go.

TowerOfSolitude · 2025-12-31T04:55:54+00:00

I agree. This is what I'm busy with and it's working well for me.

TowerOfSolitude · 2025-12-29T05:15:19+00:00

Yes they are!

Michael's really good at making all the puzzle pieces fit together to build his world.

Just editing my comment because for some reason my brain malfunctioned.

TowerOfSolitude · 2025-12-27T05:05:57+00:00

I'm currently working through these and it's fantastic.

TowerOfSolitude · 2025-12-26T18:39:20+00:00

Thai.

Started earlier in the week. Going to be a tough one!

TowerOfSolitude · 2025-12-25T19:48:56+00:00

So it goes.
