Re: Super Challenge registration thread
Soooo what's the policy on registering for languages which we are somewhat native in but:
1. Are illiterate in AND
2. Can't speak the higher registers nor slang because we didn't grow up in an environment where that language is spoken broadly but rather learned from our parents
Could I register for a heritage language fitting the criteria above (with the goal of learning to read/write and expanding my comprehension)?

Challenge: double
Current level: B2 passive
Comments, links: Double Dutch! Where's my jump ropes? Been slacking on my Dutch lately so hopefully this helps. Starting a lot earlier than I did last time, so maybe I'll stand a chance now!
Plus I'll be in the Netherlands for a year so hopefully that helps a bit

Re: Super Challenge registration thread
Language: Korean
Challenge: Full
Current level: Beginner
Comments: The watching part shouldn't be too difficult with the amount of Korean shows I watch, but I think the reading part will be a lot more difficult for me. I definitely want to try reading some Naver webtoons, although each episode is usually just one long vertical page, so I'll have to think of how many manga pages each one would be equivalent to. I also want to try reading some more children's books, which I just started reading recently.
