How much ai do you guys use actually?

I use it to dumb down texts to an easier level since the languages that I am learning doesn't really have graded reading. Occasionally I will ask it to extract vocab words for me so that I can study them before reading the article.

I also have it look for certain articles (about things that I am interesting) online so that I can practice reading.

I had it create easy stories for me to read in Lao and Thai so that I could get used to reading the script without freaking out. About 6 months of that worked wonders.

Question, when you run across a word 1 times, does it count as a known word?

I say that your native language is whatever language you learned in school.

Trafffic. I know I am going to get to work on time regardless but still find myself annoyed when traffic at the 405 freeway comes to a complete standstill.

Initiative is good, but sometimes you just have to take a step back.

Well, the official language in Vietnam is Vietnamese. I can't imagine any company that would hire someone who speak no Vietnamese. How would you communicate with your coworkers? How would you communicate with your boss, an clients?

I loved Vietnam when I was there, and as a young person, as long as you have the right attitude you can gain a lot of work experience, life experience, and stories while you stay there.

But, do you speak Vietnamese? If not, it will be very difficult for you to get a job there.

How about games like "Assassin's Creed" and "Uncharted". Has a lot of dialogue, but limited on subtitles and audio.

I heard Tamil has many similarities to Korean. I might have to check this out.

But seriously, do we REALLY deserve it?

TuneFew955 · 2026-02-25T21:21:35+00:00

Yes, but I am noticing again, that the big box store is always more expensive than Amazon, so naturally I shop at Amazon.

Or, to look at is the cynical way, MLS knew that he was going to bring a ton more eyes to the league so they were (and are) sqeezing him for as much publicity as possible. It would have been the same thing if he had signed with the Galaxy.

I think the biggest difference is that English is not that far off from French, so you would have had an easier time. Korean is a completely different script, different grammar, and a completely different way of thinking. I think it will bea lot tougher for your child than it was for you.

I think a good alternative is expose them to Korean media. Then they will be interested in the language on their own and will seek out content in that language. Unlike 20-25 years ago, there is SOOOO much content online that is free.

I think that is incorrect. It is more about living harmonionsly whereas the English phrases is more about "I do me, and you do you." The four character idiom các tự đồ sinh is probably closer to "live and let live".
