>What tips can you share with someone who also has your TL?

Personally i am looking to choosing between Russian, Arabic or Azeri.

Russian because i like it phonetically, it gives me access to a wide variety of philosophical literature and i already know the alphabet.

Arabic because it is my religion's main language, there are many neighboring nations which speak it and i already have a firm grasp of the MSA variety from school year. I also plan for a pilgrimage to Iraq so the dialect is sure to come in handy.

Azeri cause there is a lot of them here. yeah, i think it is gonna be either MSA arabic, then classical or Baghdad dialect, or Russian.

I fear no man… but that thing? it scares me.

>>25417
You can reorder it in whichever way you like as long as the verb is at the end

>>25418

Really? Is there some form of prefix or suffix to indicate a word's role, like the Russian case system?

>>25414
I want to learn russian, so I was planning on starting with Michel Thomas Method and then following 4chan's /int/ guide. But the OP's reddit guide seems better, I'll use it instead. Thanks OP

>>25414

>>25415

>>25422

>>25435

>>25441
Yes i am, born and raised. I am currently in Iran.

>>25448

Anyone into learning Vietnamese?

To be honest, i have never seen written Azerbaijani in Iran. The Azeri friends i have had mostly seem to speak it and that, only at home or with each other.

I did find this old document from pre-revolution era which appears to have been written in the Persian script.

Interesting, Though anyone who has dipped his toes in Language Learning is sure to have heard of Anki.

https://sakubi.neocities.org/ some resource ocmpilation for learning japanese, it already assumes you know the basics
