The lessons are verrrrrry slowly getting rid of all romanization and Im very happy, haha. I hate it when a course relies on romanization for more than a couple of lessons. For being a good chuck on the way through A1 on Busuu, it’s really about time, sheesh πŸ˜… 

But I still love Busuu and it’s still my favorite, basic resource to learn any language 😘

Finally getting around to indexing my Korean journ Finally getting around to indexing my Korean journal! πŸ’œ 

This is my official journal where I have been taking notes for about 3 months. I know it seems so short for 3 months, but I don’t have much time to study and any notes I take about textbooks I use are kept in my textbooks and not here. So this is really just TTMIK and very occasionally Memrise or Busuu 😁

I’m excited to see it filled!! Hopefully I can manage that this year 😍

I think they are perhaps a tad bit overreaching with the language levels they compare their own levels to, haha. But I don’t know! I haven’t completed level 3 yet! All I know is that level 2 was very easy and simple and I wouldn’t call it mid beginner, as they do…)

My (current) favorite websites to use to learn Spa My (current) favorite websites to use to learn Spanish! πŸ’» 

(I occasionally use Busuu and Duolingo on my laptop, but I tend to use them more via their apps, so I didnt include them in this list πŸ˜™)

You can find my website with the full master list of resources via the link in my IG profile or you can just use this direct link: https://plurilingualism.com/master-post-of-spanish-resources/ πŸ’œ

The resources mentioned:

🌿 SpanishDict: my favorite resource for Spanish! It has soooo many amazing features and every Spanish learner (no matter the level or goal) can always get something out of it. I highly, highly recommend it!

πŸƒ Todo Claro: a great site for helpful worksheets and exercises. I mostly use this site for grammar, but they also have some new vocab and cultural resources too! 

🌿 Telemundo: I’m sure every Spanish learner knows this site, but it’s as popular as it is for a reason! Everything entertainment related (news, videos, reports, TV shows, articles, etc) can all be found on this site.

πŸƒ Spotify: another resource everyone knows! I have really been enjoying Doorway to Mexico lately. Its perfect for intermediate learners and it gives lots of great info for those with a focus on Latin American Spanish, in general, and especially those wanting to learn Mexican Spanish (like me!).

🌿 El verdadero robo del siglo: this limited series podcast is so interesting! Its produced in part with Duolingo and its very well made. Its very short, though, with only 6 episodes. It talks all about a very famous and interesting bank robbery in Argentina!

πŸƒ Netflix and Disney+: another resource that everyone knows, but for a reason! Netflix offers a feature to β€˜browse by language’ where you can filter by dubbing, subbing, or original language spoken. Disney+ has yet to offer anything like this (or to offer too many foreign options, in general!), but they are really, really good about offering soooo many dubbing and subbing options on ALL of their content and they have both European and Latin American Spanish.

This is my favorite part of the month. Looking back at my last months achievements and goals and then making the next month's plan. It is fun and creative and mindful and I love it. This month is quite similar to last month, in terms of the actual goals. I am still taking it fairly slow, as I still have lots of stuff going on in my life right now that I cannot change and takes up a lot more time than I would wish. Despite this, though, I am very excited to start to slowly pick the pace back up in March! I hope to finally crack up some new books and textbooks I got and I am really hoping to finish some great books this month! (Hopefully at least 2 in Spanish!) 😍

Have you made any goals for this month? OR are you more of a yearly or even weekly goal setter - or no goals at all!? πŸ˜„

Why Writing in Your Target Language is so important! [+ 50 Prompts!]

Why Writing in Your Target Language is SO Important! [+50 writing prompts!] Plurilingualism

If you are learning a language – any language – writing in your target language is so important.

It is often incredibly overlooked and many language learners focus only on the other pillars of language learning (reading, listening, and speaking), forgetting writing almost entirely.

However, writing in a foreign language is very valuable. It has numerous benefits that should not be disregarded. Plus, writing is just an easy and fun way to practice, as long as you have the right prompts and strategies!

Keep reading to learn more about why it is so beneficial, how exactly you can incorporate it into your life today, and to find 50+ writing prompts and other, fun writing resources!


P.S – While you are thinking about how to work writing into your language studies, be sure to put a good bit of focus on reading, as well!!

Here is a post about the many statistical benefits to reading, as well as reading strategies for language learning and many tips!


Why should we write in our target language at all?

Writing in a foreing language

Language learners often ask “why is writing in a foreign language important?”.

This always surprises me, as there are almost unlimited benefits to writing in your target language!

When you learn a language just by reading or listening, you are only ever receiving information (i.e input) – you are not producing anything on your own. It can be quite passive to learn in these ways.

When you learn with speaking, it is more active and you are producing your own thoughts and spoken words (i.e output), but it isnt enough. Not on its own, at least!

Adding another form of output, like writing, is very helpful. It allows your brain to not only remember and retain the information you learn better, but also trains your brain to use the language better and quicker than ever before.

It is important to always try to maintain an even level in the four pillars of language learning, when at all possible. It’s not ideal to be extremely proficient in reading, and yet unable to hold a conversation or write more than a few sentences. It is equally undesirable to be able to fluently speak on any topic, and yet unable to listen to natives very well.

All of the four pillars of language learning matter and all four should be an equal part of a great language study routine!

The biggest benefit of learning all four of the pillars equally is that learning things visually and audibly and then forming what you have learned into speech and writing combines three of the four VARK learning styles. This means that you are giving your brain a really great chance to grab onto any information you learn and correctly recall it in the future.

Don’t forget that writing is a form of communication, too! Communication is necessary in this world and if you cannot properly communicate in your target language, you have got quite a big problem. You cannot always revert to only speaking, sometimes writing in your target language is necessary. If you have never practiced writing, however, you will not be able to preform when needed.

Here are even more benefits to writing in a foreign language at a quick glance:

– You have a hard copy of all of your language progress

– Writing helps you prepare for speaking and improves your speaking level (here is a study from St. Cloud State University!)

– It connects the spatial part of your brain with the verbal and you will learn and recall what you write much better (here is a great article from Lifehack with more info)

– Writing is less time-constrained than speaking (usually) and so you have time to correctly form your ideas on paper and even look up topics, if needed (think speaking in slow motion)

– It is an easy way to produce something and get feedback and corrections from native speakers

– Most language exams test for writing proficiency – you are ahead of the game when you practice now

– If you choose to journal in your TL, you get a multitude of benefits such as recording precious memories, a boost in creativity and self confidence, and so much more (read about that from Kaiser Permanente here!)

How often should we write in our target language?

Photo by Aaron Burden on Unsplash

As often as you can spare!

If you can manage, writing in your target language every single day will bring amazing benefits to your language learning!

Even just writing a few minutes a day will lead to a habit in no time (roughly 66 days, on average, to be exact!) and this will impact your language studies very positively.

However, if you cannot spare a few minutes every day, or if you are just starting out and not a fan (yet) of writing, even just a few minutes a week will start to help you!

Just be sure to set aside a proper time in your planner and/or language routine (read about how to make a great language study plan here!) and try to stick to it!

The main goal, however, is to just begin. You can form a habit with time and you can always increase your writing time later, once you start to find it fun and clearly see the benefits in your life!

The more time you can spare and the more you invest in your language learning, though, the better!

What should we be writing in our target language?

Anything!

The best part about writing is that you are in charge. You get to decide what you write and how you write it.

You might choose to write a paragraph or two on a funny prompt every day, or perhaps you keep a small diary. Or maybe you want to write an essay a week about new technology. Maybe you really love celebrities and just want to write mini biographies about your favorites every other day!

The world (of writing) is your oyster.

I gathered 50 great prompts below that you can use for some inspiration, but you can also check out writing challenges, as well!

Here is a post I wrote with tons of various language challenges, including some writing challenges and challenges with foreign language writing prompts.

One of my all-time favorite language challenges and the one I would like to spotlight on this post is the NaNoWriMo language challenge!

If you don’t know what NaNoWriMo is, here is the official website. Basically, its where you take all of November to write as much as you can! Hence the name: National Novel Writing Month.

The goal behind this language spun NaNoWriMo challenge is to write 200 words (always of the same story) in your TL every day. At the end, you should have a 6000 word story in your target language!

Check out the specifics in the image below:

Writing in target language challenge - Langblr NaNoWriMo

As seen, the challenge above is clearly a BIG one. Ideal for B2 learners and up.

If you are not yet ready for this or just prefer short, single prompts, no worries! You can check out the challenge post for more ideas, or just check out the list below for some great and easy foreign language writing prompts πŸ™‚

General tips for writing in a foreign language:

– Start small! Make writing a habit first and foremost. Taking micro steps towards a large goal is a very easy and attainable way to achieve that goal with time. It is perfectly fine to start writing just a few minutes a day. It is better than not writing at all and a step towards your goal is still a step, even if it is a small one!

– Choose your writing strategy. Will you write freely without a dictionary or any help? Or perhaps you will write very correctly, with a dictionary and phrasebook in hand? Maybe you will write freely and then go back and self-correct! You could also write freely and then pass it to a friend or tandem language partner to correct for you. Yet another option is to brainstorm words, phrases, and grammar topics before and then write freely after, using what you brainstormed earlier! As mentioned before, the world is your oyster. You can choose what route works best for your personality and your learning style.

– Try to challenge yourself! At least every once in a while. It can be very easy to get into a habit of writing a journal every day and just keeping it simple. However, I challenge you to challenge yourself to keep pushing! Write more, write about advanced topics, write longer pieces, etc. Don’t become complacent with any of your language skills. You will never grow if you do not push yourself.

– Shake it up! If you want to learn your target language as best as possible, you need to prepare for a wide array of scenarios in which you would use your language. Do not just write romantic poems and expect this to greatly help you speak, read, and listen in real-life. It will certainly help you, but if you branch out sometimes, this will help you so much more. Try to hit a different topic each time you write, if possible. Perhaps one day, write about something scientific. Then something political and perhaps something fantastical next. Write poems and letters and short stories and essays! Try to write casual and professional. The more you write about, the more and the better you learn.


I hope this helps and I hope you feel ready to start writing in your target language today!

This is my official journal where I have been taking notes for about 3 months. I know it seems so short for 3 months, but I don’t have much time to study and any notes I take about textbooks I use are kept in my textbooks and not here.

I’m excited to start level 3! The last level of the beginner levels on TTMIK. After this one, it’s intermediate! (According to them at least, haha. I think they are perhaps a tad bit overreaching with the language levels they compare their own levels to, haha. But I don’t know! I haven’t completed level 3 yet! All I know is that level 2 was very easy and simple and I wouldn’t call it mid beginner, as they do…)

Lingua is a great site for beginners to get short stories with accompanying mini quizzes 😍 They only have a handful of free stories per language (and I believe only A1 and A2 levels), but as a bookworm, I love it. It’s such a good resource!

My (current) favorite websites to use to learn Spa My (current) favorite websites to use to learn Spanish! πŸ’» 

(I occasionally use Busuu and Duolingo on my laptop, but I tend to use them more via their apps, so I didnt include them in this list πŸ˜™)

You can find my website with the full master list of resources via the link in my IG profile or you can just use this direct link: https://plurilingualism.com/master-post-of-spanish-resources/ πŸ’œ

The resources mentioned:

🌿 SpanishDict: my favorite resource for Spanish! It has soooo many amazing features and every Spanish learner (no matter the level or goal) can always get something out of it. I highly, highly recommend it!

πŸƒ Todo Claro: a great site for helpful worksheets and exercises. I mostly use this site for grammar, but they also have some new vocab and cultural resources too! 

🌿 Telemundo: I’m sure every Spanish learner knows this site, but it’s as popular as it is for a reason! Everything entertainment related (news, videos, reports, TV shows, articles, etc) can all be found on this site.

πŸƒ Spotify: another resource everyone knows! I have really been enjoying Doorway to Mexico lately. Its perfect for intermediate learners and it gives lots of great info for those with a focus on Latin American Spanish, in general, and especially those wanting to learn Mexican Spanish (like me!).

🌿 El verdadero robo del siglo: this limited series podcast is so interesting! Its produced in part with Duolingo and its very well made. Its very short, though, with only 6 episodes. It talks all about a very famous and interesting bank robbery in Argentina!

πŸƒ Netflix and Disney+: another resource that everyone knows, but for a reason! Netflix offers a feature to β€˜browse by language’ where you can filter by dubbing, subbing, or original language spoken. Disney+ has yet to offer anything like this (or to offer too many foreign options, in general!), but they are really, really good about offering soooo many dubbing and subbing options on ALL of their content and they have both European and Latin American Spanish.

Halli hallo! πŸ‹ Long time, no see! I can’t b Halli hallo! πŸ‹ Long time, no see! 

I can’t believe this is my first time posting (and my first real week studying again!) since March 2nd ! ! 

We got back from our trip to Portugal and Spain and the next day had an apartment viewing. We were called the day after and offered the apartment!!! We will move in around mid April and it’s been so crazy organizing everything lately. Going from relaxing vacay right into stress is never easy πŸ˜‚πŸ‘Œ

But I’m happy to start to get back into a new routine and to study again. And so excited to move into a new home and have a new, (hopefully) amazing study and workspace!!!

My March language goals spread πŸ€ This is my fa My March language goals spread πŸ€

This is my favorite part of the month. Looking back at my last months achievements and goals and then making the next month's plan. It is fun and creative and mindful and I love it. This month is quite similar to last month, in terms of the actual goals. I am still taking it fairly slow, as I still have lots of stuff going on in my life right now that I cannot change and takes up a lot more time than I would wish. Despite this, though, I am very excited to start to slowly pick the pace back up in March! I hope to finally crack up some new books and textbooks I got and I am really hoping to finish some great books this month! (Hopefully at least 2 in Spanish!) 😍

Have you made any goals for this month? OR are you more of a yearly or even weekly goal setter - or no goals at all!? πŸ˜„

Goodbye February! πŸ’‹ It is the shortest month o Goodbye February! πŸ’‹

It is the shortest month of the year, but I didnt think it would fly by SO fast!! It felt like 5 days long, haha. (Is anybody else shocked that we are quickly approaching the 25% mark for this year already???)

As you can see, I still didnt have much time this month for language learning this month. I am still in a difficult situation and my husband and I are STILL looking for an apartment, so there are still a lot of white spaces. This is disappointing to me, but I expected it. As long as I try my best and get at least half done, I am happy with my language learning progress! And that is just what I did this month πŸ‘

Usually, I get the most done in Spanish and Korean and the least in the other 3 languages. This month, I clearly got the most done in Portuguese!!! I didn't do too hot with Korean, on the other hand. I am very surprised to see this! I did have much less on my goal list for Portuguese, but still. Korean is one of my higher priority languages and so I will need to pay a bit more attention to it next month πŸ’• 

Did you guys make any goals this past month and did you manage to hit most/all of them? πŸ€—
