LANGUAGES
A few years ago, the foreign language bug bit me and now I find myself learning & rehearsing in my spare time. (It's surprising how much practice you can get in when you're just waiting around…) Sure, sometimes I'll botch a pronunciation, or misconjugate a verb, or use the wrong word & phrase. I'm bound to make mistakes, and that's part of learning a language…
7.25.24 UPDATE - I've long since removed my previous foreign language audio clips from this page in order to prevent the scraping & misappropriation of such content by unethical AI companies. And since Meta recently began training their artificial intelligence system with user data found on their social media platforms, I've also removed my foreign language posts from Meta's holdings. So for now, I'll slowly begin reposting them on here instead. (…the corresponding emojis I used in my original caption text will have to wait, however. I know if I do that in a rush, I'll end up designating an erroneous emoji icon or two!) Enjoy!
