Can’t wait to challenge myself!

Language: Hmong
Challenge: Double
Current level: A1
Comments, links: I really want to advance my comprehension of this beautiful language. So, I’m aiming to dedicate myself to relative fluency in the next two years. This will be a fun way to keep me on track with input.

I've already started, but I'm just now getting around to officially signing up again. I love the Super Challenge!

Language: Romance family
Challenge: Full
Current level: High-A2 to shaky B2 passive
Comments, links: I hope to exceed the required numbers of films/shows/audio books considerably.

Language: German
Challenge: Half
Current level: B2

Language: Russian
Challenge: Half
Current level: pre-A1
Comments, links: I will be focusing mostly on the L-R method for Russian (counting Russian text & audio under books and Russian audio & English text under movies). I doubt this language will be a major focus for me in general right now, but I should be able to manage a half challenge hopefully.

Language: Dutch
Challenge: (full, half, double)
Current level: A2
Comments, links: Long time lurker, decided to make an account and participate. I'm currently living in the Netherlands but I'm struggling to make much progress without structure, figured this would be a great idea. I'm hoping to be B2 or close to by the end of this!

Language: Japanese
Challenge: (full, half, double)
Current level: Aiming for N2
Comments, links: I probably am able to pass N2 at the level I am now but since I have never taken the JLPT before I figured N2 would be a good introduction! I've studied Japanese for roughly 15 years, I use the language daily (sometimes more so than Dutch which is embarrassing seeing as I live in the Netherlands...), however I do have a gigantic backlog of Japanese books and this is the perfect excuse to get through them :lol:

Been learning Spanish for a while on and off at school in England but we all know the education system isn’t the best for language acquisition. But now I am at a level where I can start to understand native content and I am doin this challenge a month later than the start date but hey ho!

Since this challenge started May 1st and I have a French book started after that, can I count that despite not being signed up? I know I watched some Spanish TV after May 1st, but I don't care to go back and figure out how much I did (don't think it was much), but I know for sure per Goodreads I started this French book after the start date.


That is fair. Anything you've read since May 1st counts.

Language: Spanish
Challenge: Full
Current level: A2
Comment: I've never done a challenge like this before so I'm really excited. It's really going to push me far beyond any level of Spanish I've reached prior to now. I'm very curious to see how much I'll have improved between now and the end of this challenge.


Good luck to everyone! Have fun!
