My school only had French and Spanish. I probably would have taken German instead if it had been an option

That's my understanding of French as well. A lot of things you don't actually pronounce

Some Korean dialects have pitch accent as well, but... Not the one I'm learning!

Japanese kind of scares me. Pitch accent... kanji...

I took Spanish, and it was awful, but it didn't have anything to do with the language itself

I'm learning Korean, and I plan to learn Spanish. The rest... Might learn some of them, might learn none. Who can say

The list of languages that interest me: Korean(obviously), Spanish, French, German, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Japanese, Mandarin, Swedish, and Thai

Swedish is actually one of the languages that piqued my interest, but there are too many languages that I want to learn

I need 518 more, which means I'm making really good progress so far since I started off needing 200 more than than today

Oh, my grammar deck on Anki was actually a shared deck that someone else had made, and then I just added to it

답답하다 is a good example actually. It's like you feel suffocated or something. I understand it, but I feel like it's hard to translate in certain contexts.

Ah, I don't use Memrise. I use to use my grammar/sentence and vocabulary decks on Anki a lot, but now I just review some of the grammar cards every now and then

I can't think of any examples... But I'll find myself thinking things like, "Wait, how do we say this in English?" Or "Is there even a word for this in English?"

With Korean to English, it's like I can't think of a good way to say certain Korean words in English, and it's also hard for me change things into the right order for English
