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!

    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.
