Do you use Anki? If so, what are you experiences with it?
Anki system seems to be super confusing for me. 😮 I prefer to use memrise or just write down the words I come across in my vocabulary copy. ☺
Ask @roksana039
What French dictionaries do you resort to in times of need? (within the context of studying French, of course) :)
My top online dictionaries are collins and wordreference. I don't know many dictionaries but maybe there are more out there. ☺
Right back at you: What kind of books (save for the language textbooks and dictionaries) do you like to read ? :)
Hmm... anything that piques my interest really. Few days ago just finished my first ever modern romance novel, "night music". I also read GOT. (Can't wait to get my hands in the 5th book) Over summer managed to read few detective novels and when I was younger I adored to read books by Jack London. :)
What brand is your phone? (soon you'll understand why I'm interested in that, trust me)
Using Samsung
What languages do you speak and to which degree are you fluent in them? :) [let's get this Q&A thingie rolling]
I haven't used ASKfm for ages so I am sorry that my reply comes almost over 2 weeks late.
1) I would consider my native language to be Russian as it's spoken in my household and I grew up speaking it. (Plus my grandfather is Russian) While living in Lithuania my mom enrolled me into Russian kindergarten and after that, I went to a Russian school. I have retained the language although occasionally I would mix in some English or use an English word translated to Russian.
2) For some reason I still understand Lithuanian and my mom suggests it is because I was exposed to this language while I was young. We learned it in school too. Although I moved countries before I could actually master the grammar. It is no problem for me to understand it and read it and slowly speak it (with mistakes) but writing is a no-no.
3) English! My second native language. I can perfectly understand it, but still do have a slight accent when I speak. After I graduate university I will be able to say that I lived half of my life in Ireland. That's crazy..
4) Japanese & French. My French should be almost B2 level although I don't feel it. As for Japanese, I have started studying it seriously since September 2016 at my university. (and French too).
5) Korean & Chinese. Have been self-studying Korean for a while now and probably my level is upper beginner. Recently have picked up a Chinese textbook from the library but thanks to the apps I can say basic things already!
