Yeah, I can read English subtitles really quickly in comparison

One thing I noticed with translating is that it's harder for me to translate from Korean to English than it is to translate from English to Korean.

I can relate with trying to keep up with subtitles. That's definitely a challenge

I think, like with all things, practice makes perfect! I remember with listening, I would constantly have to think about what words meant at first, but now I just know the meaning of those words

Hm... I can read some things in Korean at a glance actually. It just depends on how familiar the word is to me.

But that's also what motivates me to read more in Korean. I want my Korean reading speed to get faster and faster just like my English reading speed did when I was little

But to be fair, I was always the type who would be the first to finish reading things in school and would have to wait while everyone else finished reading. I read so many books when I was younger that my reading speed in English is obviously going to be a lot faster than in Korean

Reading in Korean is definitely slower than reading in English, so that can be frustrating at times, but I can tell my reading speed has already improved from when I started

I like trying to listen to Sebasi Talk videos and such

I've been trying to practice my listening skills more though lately

Oh, reading Korean is actually easier than listening to me

I use the learning with texts program to keep track of words I know, don't know, and such

I also read some of the first book in Korean for study purposes, but I think I want to try reading a Korean series instead

I haven't read Harry Potter since middle school, so it's interesting to see how much I remember and how much I forgot
