First week of the year and first lessons of the year.

Tell me: how do you say “happy new year” in your target language?

I know there are others learning German here so I’ll use the Austrian version:

Prosit Neujahr!

    Might give up on Korean. Not sure yet what to learn instead, maybe I’ll give Latin another try.

      Due to motivation / frustration or just lost interest? Latin is cool and from what I’ve heard it’s fun.

        I think it’s mostly motivation. Wanted to learn something completely different from the european languages I already speak and I had free courses available. It’s an interesting language, but I have no use for it. Also had some bad interactions with people in some Korean learning communities.

        I’m honestly not sure Latin would be any better. I started learning it three times and I gave up three times, because ultimately I wasn’t that interested in reading texts about slavery.

        Maybe I need to try some other language.

          Hmm yeah I understand. Communities can be super toxic too with all their gatekeeping.

          Hope you find a language you enjoy learning.
