I have been speaking Korean for a long time, and definitely it is my most comfortable language to speak> Although I have started to forget some words in Korean since studying here in the US, but I'm definitely good at it still.]]> 2019-01-29 01:51:01 UTC https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325214563 irene210 https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325216655 Although my native language is Korean, I was born in the US and I did learn English at the same time as Korean. I still wonder why grammar is so bad compared to my Korean, but I think it is because I didn't go to elementary school here in the US which is probably where most of the kids picked up grammar.]]> 2019-01-29 02:02:05 UTC https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325216655 irene210 https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325217135 This is one of the languages that I can actually speak fluently without having anyone else near me speaking the language. I self-studied the language because I was interested in it. I just started taking actual Japanese classes here, but because I am in 400 level, this is my first and last year of learning Japanese in class.]]> 2019-01-29 02:04:39 UTC https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325217135 irene210 https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325217543 Sorry, Laoshi. I learned Chinese during high school for all 4 years. Unfortunately, I barely remember anything. My Chinese skill is probably worse than Japanese, which I self-studied. At least I still remember how to say my name and how to order a bottle of coca cola in Chinese. 我要一瓶可乐。]]> 2019-01-29 02:06:45 UTC https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325217543 irene210 https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325218136 I came from Korea at 7th grade, so it was a bit late for me to pick up Spanish, which everyone in my school took as a second language. Whenever my friend speaks in Spanish, I'm always so fasinated by it. I'm planning to self-study, but at this point in time, I can only say "¿Cómo estás?"]]> 2019-01-29 02:10:02 UTC https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325218136 irene210 https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325218826 One of my friend knows how to speak German, so I tried learning from her which never worked out. It was just a hard language for me to understand or pronounce. I wish I can get another chance to learn German so just in case I can at least ask where the nearest restroom is in German. ]]> 2019-01-29 02:13:47 UTC https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325218826 irene210 https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325219146 I went to a private elementary school, and our school was a christian school. Our school had connection to one of the Cambodian elementary school, so we used to learn a bit of Cambodian. I still remember a bit of how to sing the Korean Christian hymn "you were born to be loved" in Cambodian.]]> 2019-01-29 02:15:39 UTC https://padlet.com/irene210/8efvw6psn66f/wish/325219146
