I'm in, starting today, 1 January. As usual, generic as I can never decide and/or stick to one language for too long. Let's see: I'll do Russian and Esperanto, definitely. Then who knows what else? Italian, German, BCS?

And I'm with Elsa Maria, this is perhaps the best challenge, at least for me. 30 minutes a day is a great habit to get into and helped my languages incredibly.

I'll sign up again! Didn't manage last year, after all that. Going for generic (German / Mandarin / Spanish) and hoping for a language-filled 2022.

Edit: Starting 1 Jan. Oop, almost forgot! :oops:

Generic, starting today (January 1st).

Haven't done this challenge before, but I did start doing a scriptorium-like routine a month or so ago where I would do writing in four languages for 20 minutes a day (five minutes each for Kazakh, Japanese, Norwegian nynorsk and Latin). I can extend this to 30 minutes by adding 10 minutes of Hmong, which is supposed to be my main focus of study for now. I was planning on replacing Latin with Persian once I finish catching up to the spot in the textbook Lingua Latina per se Illustrata where I left off last time, but I'll think about this more when the time comes.

I'm going for generic, starting today 1/1. That said, I will only count my day if I spend at least 30 minutes on Arabic (MSA) , Armenian, or French. My real goal is to hit B1 in all three (which I generally see as 15 minutes of more or less natural conversation with virtually no other languages involved) by 2023.

I'm in again, starting from Jan 1, generic challenge. I have no idea yet what I will be doing the second half of the year, but for now, I'm focusing on German, Arabic and Russian.

I'm a bit late but wanna join! :) I'll start today, January 3rd.

- German
- Generic (English and Spanish)

My goal is to reach B2 in German, so probably I'll spend much more than this 30 min.
For English I'll only count study focused in Grammar and for Spanish anything I do since I'm just starting but is quite a transparent language or me.

If it's allowed, I'd like to which from two specific languages to generic (still Greek and Hebrew).

EDIT: I just read the rules, and it is allowed. Yay. I'll still shoot for doing both each day, but it's nice to have some breathing room when I need it.
