As a moderator, I contributed to this instance and tried to discuss languages (Languages on Autism Place) or playing Minecraft (Minecraft on Autism Place) but sometimes I get torn between pursuing languages (and their corresponding cultures, countries, and being able to talk to them) or focusing on my regular daily life speaking English and practicing foreign languages as a second pastime.

I know some speak foreign languages here, but does anyone else practice foreign languages besides who I know?

    I natively speak English and Korean, learned to speak somewhat decently in Japanese and tried to learn a bit in Filipino, Esperanto, Spanish, and Punjabi thanks to my friends

    For me personally I find that trying to learn my friend’s native languages is more encouraging than any other course as I just want to better understand what they’re saying as I frequently make friends that aren’t fluent in English. Although due to frequently translating for my family though I find that I can understand them regardless of imperfect English skills, not sure how that works🤷‍♀️

    Sorry I went off tangent but I hope this acts as a decent reply for what you’re looking for~🤗
