Hey did you know I keep a google drive folder with linguistics and language books that I try to update regularly
**UPDATE**
I have restructured the folders to make them easier to use and managed to add almost all languages requested and then some
Please let me know any further suggestions
….holy shit. You found the holy grail.
….. is this a DIFFERENT person keeping gigabytes worth of language books on google drive? Holy crap.
This. This here. Is why I love Tumblr.❤️❤️❤️
Update from OP:
UPDATE because apparently not everyone has seen this yet the new and improved version of this is a MEGA folder: https://mega.nz/folder/kQBXHKwA#-osWRLNCXAsd62ln8wKa8w
Pay attention to the small wins in your language learning. Remembering to decline adjective/adverbs/pronouns etc correctly. Using the right case in a particular context. Recalling that one word you needed without having to look it up, even if it took you a few seconds to remember. Learning a new word. Reading a whole paragraph without having to use google translate. Being able to correct your own grammar, even if you didn’t get it right the first time and have to consciously think about those grammar rules. Learning a language is a long road and sometimes it’s difficult to see just how far you’ve come, so it’s important to celebrate the little victories.
