- I've been learning languages on and off for a loooong time, but nowadays I'm putting a lot of effort in and moving along quite quickly.

Great update! Thanks for sharing!! I’m looking forward to your German update as well!
I’m at around 320 hours on dreaming Spanish myself but I also came in with some prior experience. I mostly watch DS, I think around 295 of my hours are from DS, because I also have auditory processing issues but it makes ambiguity (and audio only content) harder for me. I watch some native content too but I don’t track it.
I also do a little German immersion here and there. It’s a language I’ve started and stopped a few times and plan to get back to once my Spanish is at a higher level and takes less of my time and focus.
German is a great language! It's the one I know already from previous study, so I'm quite fond of it.
Almost at 50 hours I had Spanish in high school and was almost intermediate but it’s been years so I started at 0 hours I can understand a lot pretty quickly but the idea of getting all the way to 1,500 hours is overwhelming
You're off to a great start! 🥳 I agree, 1500 sounds like A LOT. I prefer to think about one level at a time, because then the goal feels closer and more achievable - so right now I only need to think about the 250hrs left until level 5.
I'm 25-ish hours in on DS.
I just wish Dreaming Turkish was a thing.
Oh that would be brilliant! I'm hoping that other people start to realise, "Hey, there's no CI resource for my language for beginners, I should make some!" That way, even if Pablo takes a while to get round to other languages, there'd be something out there. I'm thinking of making my own resources for English, since Scotland has so many strong accents and dialects to contend with and people are moving here from other countries all the time.
There is a wiki for alle the channels who do that content in all the available languages
Thank you I’ve subscribed! I’m at 5 hours on DS starting from zero. What is the app you mentioned here with the Crosstalk?
Thank you! Five hours is a great start - how are you finding it so far?
The app is lcb (that's a lower case L at the start), only for iphone/ipad but luckily I still have an ancient ipad that I could use it with.
@@thestraightupguide I'm loving it, my goal at the moment is an hour a day. Thank you for the information about the app!
