hello everybody
long time no language update today's
video is going to be super fun we're
going to have a chatty video i'm going
to tell you all about
how my language plans have changed
what's been working
what apps am i using what new habits am
i trying
and we're gonna do something together
which is reviewing the last week
of my language learning reviewing the
last month and planning ahead for the
new quarter
even though we are already one month
into the quarter
it's gonna be a long video but get some
tea get some popcorn get yourself comfy
and uh let's have fun talking all things
languages
let's talk about how it has been going
i'm gonna start with
a review of quarter one for more
um in-depth goals you can definitely
check out my twitter thread where i've
pinned
my goals for each quarter so i update
the thread every three months
let me get out my handy dandy language
journal
which has gained one more sticker i feel
like a child but
it makes me happy so at the back of this
journal
i have started to do a monthly
reflection
as well as a quarterly reflection so on
these pages here i do
a month reflection where i write down
all of the languages i focused most of
my energy on
what i was doing and what worked my
march reflection was quite ra
my march reflection was quite long and i
wrote it in french
and then my q1 goals has a page here
where i go through
i'm just evaluating what i've achieved
first of all some things that have
changed regarding the format
of my language journal if you've been
following the videos about my language
journal you'll see that
right at the beginning of the year i
thought that i could write a journal
entry
every sunday this is definitely doable i
do have time for it and i started
writing entries in both
hungarian and tagalog at the start of
the year
but halfway through quarter one if
you'll see on my twitter thread
i decided it's probably not the best
idea to be writing these
journal entries every week because it
wasn't so beneficial
i got more than enough reading and
writing practice
doing homework for my language lessons
on italki
and i found that because my tagalog is
still very beginner
i wasn't able to write a lot so even
though i think writing is
an amazing skill i don't think it was a
good idea for me to write
as such a like below a1 beginner in
tagalog
because i spent most of the time
scratching my head like what can i even
write about
i do acknowledge that once you get a
little past that
slight beginner hump uh once i got to
oh gosh i haven't taken a level test in
hungarian but
i'm definitely better at hungarian than
i am in tagalog once you're at a
comfortable level where you can
at least think in full sentences that's
when you can start writing so long story
short
i stopped writing journal entries
because i also write hungarian essays
for homework and for practice throughout
the week i also
tried to experiment with new things that
i could do in my planner
such as writing the apps that i use
instead of telling myself what app to
use planning beforehand
i just kept a log of which apps i
naturally gravitate to
uh with language learning so that i
could see okay these are the ones i
really enjoy using
and maybe i can start scheduling these
in and then i discovered toggle
i am definitely not sponsored by them
but i should be because i talk about
them so much
toggle is not necessarily meant for
language learning i think it's for like
freelance work where you can track
billable and non-billable hours anyway
i've been using toggle for a while to
track
how much time i take learning languages
previously i said uh it's not worth my
time to track my time
because then i would feel stressed i
would feel pressured but
this started out of sheer curiosity for
um
wondering how much time do i really
spend on language learning
versus how much time do i think i spend
i wrote a blog post about different ways
to track your language learning
so you can check it out on my website at
lindybuttons.com where i go into much
more detail on
different ways that you can track like a
journal or using toggle
but anyway the interesting finding i had
was i actually spend
more time learning languages than i
thought i did
i also go through some phases where it
feels like learning one language
is a lot more fun and motivational for
me and other languages sort of take the
back seat
right now tagalog is taking a little bit
of a back seat
because i'm focusing most of my efforts
on hungarian
i also have a newfound interest in
french and spanish
anyhoodles uh back to how i use toggle
for my language log
i've started to just draw out the amount
of hours i spend on each language in a
week
so that i can see which languages are
taking priority
and the overwhelming majority is that
hungarian is definitely
well except for this week it was spanish
the majority of the time hungarian is
the language i spend the most time on
so what we're going to do first is go
through the last week
i'll show you how i summarize my week
review then we're gonna do my monthly
review
and then we're gonna plan for quarter
two all right let us dive straight into
the review for the past week
okie dokie let us begin here i have
my language tracker journal and i also
have my regular journal which is where i
track all the things i have to do during
a week just like my scheduler
so first of all i just make a list of
the
languages or activities i've done in a
week
it's definitely not been as good as the
previous week so i've done
a lot of reading a lot of hungarian
french
and we have espana spanish
and nihongo japanese
hungarian has been oh embarrassingly
only 56 minutes
reading i spent 46 minutes not counting
ebooks
french 22 minutes spanish 16 minutes
and japanese about 10 minutes compared
to
uh when was that really good yeah two
two or three weeks ago
i spent six hours doing hungarian
an hour doing tagalog in an hour doing
spanish
any hurdles hey we're not competing
against anyone
we're just doing what works for us
sometimes
i might do a little like bar graph so
one block is one hour so
i mean i'll just say i did an hour of
reading
a little more like an hour of hungarian
22 minutes for french 16 minutes for
spanish and like
10 minutes for japanese that's not
fantastic
it's always good for me to see how it's
been going the other thing is i was off
sick
for three days that's why i don't have a
lot of time
uh don't worry i didn't get
what's been going around in the world i
don't want to say the name because i
think youtube like blocks the word but
anyway
uh so like three or so days i was just
uh sleeping
in bed for a lot of time you know what i
do with these weekly check-ins is just
sort of look at what were the factors
that
affected my productivity and see
um is was it something i could control
was it not and so forth
uh for instance last week there was um a
big increase in in my spanish compared
to my hungarian i spent three hours
doing spanish
one hour doing hungarian the reason for
that is
for spanish i had sabado de espanol
intercambio which is
about two hours of spanish speaking and
i had a spanish lesson and prep which
was about
one hour so that contributed to the
spike in my spanish
then the previous week uh the week
before that actually
hungarian was six hours so if i look
here
i was um reviewing my notes quite a lot
there were
one to two or three days when i was
studying in a cafe with my friend
and during those study times i would
review my notes i also had
a hungarian lesson and an hour of
studying and shadowing
after my lesson and then i had two
tagalog lessons so tagalog is about an
hour
the reason i have this planners as well
is because
as i have mentioned to you guys before
i do track my mood and my emotions so
this is something that i can look back
on
and see for instance today or this week
27 28 29 i was feeling sick
i didn't learn any languages i can go
here to april and i can see
26 27 28 the little black dot means it
was not a very good day
an open circle or an open circle with
three dots on top means it was a really
good day
so i can also sort of go a bit easier on
myself and say hey
it's okay if i didn't do a lot because i
was
off sick essentially that's it for my
weekly summary i keep it really simple
i used to write you know all the apps i
do i have these to-do lists
i reflected on how the week went
uh usually now i've stopped doing
weekly reflections uh because i found
that just looking at
toggle gives me a good oversight of
where my time has gone
and that's a reflection in itself
and then the last thing i do is sort of
plan ahead for the next week
so i'm just taking a look at my italki
lessons here so i have
one spanish lesson coming up and i do
know that i need to be uh booking
more uh hungarian lessons so i'm
definitely gonna do that
and i'm just gonna fill in what i'm
doing so my interview in hungarian is
on sunday saturday it is a
salvador day and i have a lesson here
seems pretty good i guess i'll have a
lot of time to focus on work and reading
because my
most important language activities are
only three days a week during the week
i'll fill in stuff here
and then after the week i do the
review on the right page
okay now it is time to do the monthly
review and see how it went
for april as a whole let me first give
you a little oversight on
how i do my monthly reflections it
changes every month i don't have an
exact template
for january i just wrote the languages i
spent the most time on
so that was french hungarian and tagalog
and i also write sort of other things i
did related to languages
such as podcasts or interviews for
february i had a little
section here it's pretty personal but
lucky you if you can read korean you can
see my my secrets there uh something
happened here and then i didn't spend as
much time on languages
and again the section of what else i've
been doing
related to languages for march it was a
bit different
i spent a lot more time on french so i
wrote my entire
um end of quarter one review summary
in french and my friend ali corrected it
for me
merci beaucoup then for the languages
that i focused on in march was hungarian
japanese tagalog french and spanish and
whatever else related to polygon
conference or podcast interviews i just
write whatever comes to mind like
okay i only did one or two italki
lessons or you know there were some
solid study sessions i feel way more
comfortable to talk
and then here is the evaluation of my
quarter one goals
i set myself some goals at the beginning
in here about the
amount of essays i wanted to write uh
the
uh well i go to i go into a lot more
detail about this
in my language goals video from january
so you can take a look at that
not going to talk about that now but i i
kind of look at what my goals were
and then how i performed so i wanted to
do two chapters every month in my
tagalog textbook but
i didn't do that because i was too busy
and that's okay
i wanted to write two hungarian essays
per month but i actually wrote six
essays so
i'm very happy i wanted to start some
books and textbooks but i didn't
i'm seeing a flaw in my plan i think i
have like very lofty goals about the
textbooks and the books i want to use
so that's something i should think about
when planning then
throughout the middle of the quarter i
did change my plan so
like i said before my weekly diary
entries changed into monthly and weekly
reflections which were
going steady that's all of these
um spanish lessons i'm
okay this has changed for this quarter
so last quarter i didn't take
any spanish lessons on italki i only
used the busu and speakly apps
whereas now i've restarted my spanish
lessons on itaki
i also wanted to read one korean article
but i didn't do that
however i am subscribed to a design
newsletter called
and i've been reading every single one
of those so i guess it kind of counts
and i've also summarized the amount of
hours i spent on italki
which was 9.7 hours not a lot for an
entire month
uh i'm sorry not a lot for three months
but i think it's still worth noting and
it's interesting for me to see where my
time goes and for april 2021
all the time that i have checked in
toggle
uh let's go back to
april 1st to april 30th
i had 24 minutes i'm sorry 24 hours of
reading studying and website so i've
just written down these
times here a majority of my time went to
hungarian
which is good because that was my number
one goal for quarter one
spanish which is interesting because i
didn't list it as
my goal for the quarter and tagalog
only one hour oh i'm sorry i got
confused this is just for april
that's fine uh it wasn't for the entire
quarter one which i've already done
here all right i think things are
looking pretty good
not bad oh my gosh my book can you not
all right things are looking pretty good
okay time to continue writing uh my
reflection for
april not sure why
gosh what did i write here not sure why
what not sure why
well i don't know guess i have to think
of something to fit into this sentence
that's weird
i'm not sure why but i'm
much more into
reading books
if you're wondering about these symbols
the heart means yeah it's good this is
related to my goal
the shin character in japanese or
chinese means new
so like reading books is a new entry
into my logs and my blog is like a new
thing that i'm tracking
and these lines mean well i didn't aim
to do french or japanese
this quarter or this month but it still
came
up on my schedule and so on and so forth
there's really nothing much that goes
into this
just a reflection on what i've been
doing and how things have been going
you can do this in any way that you want
these stickers are not excellent but
just makes it fun just brightens up the
page
emoji smiley faces i love this one this
is like
my favorite emoji one more heart
i wonder if i should like the amount of
time i spend on italki that would be
interesting
not that it's some kind of a competition
i just really enjoy
looking at i don't know hours and
comparing myself to
myself let me see
my lessons got to see what i did in
april so not may
i need to write this down 45 minutes
hungarian okay 350 minutes which is 5
hours and 25 minutes
wow that's a lot compared to the
previous
quarter impressive okay five hours
really really five hours
if my math is wrong i'm gonna be really
embarrassed but anyway
um 350 minutes
which is 5 hours and
25 minutes
[Music]
now that we've done my weekly and
monthly review let's take a look at my
goals for the next quarter
and i'll show you how i go about
planning and ideating for that
i think i wrote this last month and i
wanted to focus on hungarian spanish
tagalog
and chinese things have changed i'm not
really feeling a lot of chinese
uh just because i want to focus a lot of
my efforts on hungarian
i'm just gonna scratch out chinese here
and not sure i'm gonna do anything for
tagalog
i should probably um review my lessons
and catch up on my textbook
and then the other two languages number
four and number five
is french
and spanish i'm pretty casual with how
i set um goals because it's better for
me to focus on small daily habits than
really big lofty goals obviously because
i'm not finishing my books any hurdles
so for hungarian we're going to just
continue what we've been doing
which is lots of italki lessons
i'm going to be on hungarian radio soon
so that's a milestone
and i want to continue let's say three
essays
one a month for spanish
i want to do weekly
um inter
gambio language exchange
and i want to do daily
uh busu app tagalog
review all
italki for french i would like to have
at least
two times language exchange
or conversation with my friend ali
and i want to do speakly
app daily
for spell oh i wrote spanish twice no
wonder i was like why do i have five
languages here
let me just get some white out this
doesn't mean i'm so
rigid in the sense that like no japanese
or oh that reminds me you have to add
japanese
no korean is allowed i kind of just do
what i feel like
so i'm going to add japanese in here
as you can see i'm really casual with
this there's no rules
any hurdles uh nihongo and all i'm gonna
do is
poompo one chapter
daily i'm so sorry if you guys think
that i am a really organized person
because that couldn't be further from
the truth
i'm all about authenticity here so i
know that
at the beginning of this quarter i
actually wrote my goals on my twitter
thread so i'm going to look at that
and uh see if my ideation here is
aligning with the goals that i set out
in this quarter because we're already a
month
in into q1 so for q2 i
said i want to attend all the italki
lessons i booked yes that's that's in my
plan
uh finally start the spanish short
stories yes let me get the book i'm
talking about
i've read one or two stories in here
which have been great
but i haven't actually like start to
finish read the book so
i mentioned this in my spanish resources
book uh
i'll put a link in the description if
you're interested in getting it it's
really awesome
because there are some questions like
comprehension questions at the end
there's vocab lists
and the stories are really funny and
interesting so that's what i mean by
starting this book like from start to
finish
i should probably put that in here i'm
i'm cautious of
putting that in because i didn't do it
in the first quarter that was my goal
for q1
but now that i'm really way more into
reading
and i'm tracking a lot of my reading on
goodreads also because my
like emotions like my feeling towards
spanish is
just much better than previously i can
also add it in here and
i should likely do so let's do short
stories uh read one article a month
i mean that's very doable it doesn't
take very long to read an article
but uh i'll see how that goes i'm not
gonna write it down right now
then i have some hungarian goals what
did i feel comfortable enough to do the
radio interview yeah this is happening
next week
uh i'll let you guys know how it goes
with that and continue my cadence of
writing two articles a month okay
uh two essays a month well here i've put
three essays
uh so we'll see what i get done um
continue attending weekly or
bi-weekly lessons yep we got italki
lessons it's definitely at the core of
my learning
and finished two chapters in my textbook
i don't think i'm gonna do this
i'm really really struggling with my
hungarian textbook
it's so boring i think what i'm going to
change
instead of finishing my textbook i want
to do
weekly podcast
from cc it's way more fun
and finish two yeah not doing that
tagalog goals i definitely didn't finish
my textbook
uh so i'll try and do two chapters a
month
not a week and learn all my verbs
i'm not sure if i'm gonna do this
because spanish
and french have definitely taken the
seed of tagalog here
we'll think about that like i mentioned
this is a very
iterative and fun process nothing is
really set in stone
as for new habits that i'm trying these
are small
bite-sized things that i want to see as
a test if i'm able to do it every day
so what i'm trying is to do a little
habit tracker of just
uh four apps that i want to use for each
language
don't judge me on the first one it is uh
duolingo for hungarian only because
i haven't found any other app that is as
good as duolingo for hungarian
i know duolingo gets a lot of hate but i
find their hungarian course to be
pretty okay i would definitely not
recommend them for asian languages like
korean japanese or chinese
not duolingo but hey for french and
spanish and hungarian
duolingo's not that bad anyways i don't
have the free version i don't have the
paid version or anything but
i do want to do at least one duolingo
lesson in hungarian every day
uh then for spanish i'm using busu i've
done
one review video for busu like a year
and a half ago
a lot of things have changed and updated
with the app it's fantastic
none of this video is sponsored i'm just
sharing with you what i enjoy using
so boso for spanish then my most recent
video review was for
speakly which i still hands down is the
best language app i've used
i'm using speakly for french also
because the audio
listening exercises are fantastic i am
such a big fan of speakly uh so that's
for french every day and then i still
want to complete the boompo
app which i also have a review video
about which i'll link
somewhere for japanese i'm working
through all the jlpt levels
i'm currently finishing up n4 and then
i'll move on to
and three so just these four apps that
i'm doing daily
i figured um after doing all four of
these it takes me about
half an hour to 45 minutes it's very
minor and short
but i want to see if i see any benefit
through doing this every single day
because i know small incremental
progress
is much better than spending hours in a
week
and then leaving the next few days to do
nothing
by the way for curiosity on my home
screen uh this page is where i track all
my small habits so you'll see my daily
habits are these apps weekly duolingo
busu and boompo i put those apps on the
right over here
and then other activities that i do
either weekly or
um daily that's how it's been going oh
yes as for the languages i am focusing
on this month
the new ones to me are hungarian tagalog
has taken a little bit of a back seat
like i mentioned
and the rest are japanese french and
spanish
i haven't done any korean this year and
something i also wanted to mention
is that the more advanced and the more
fluent you get in the language
the slower you will forget it so tagalog
i know
that i'm still a beginner so my
forgetting curve is really really fast
i need to go back and make sure i review
all that i've learned
before i sort of get back into it but
with korean
it's been 11 years in the learning and
speaking
uh during high school and university
i've spoken almost every single day
of my life not doing any korean this
entire year
is absolutely fine sometimes my tongue
feels a little rusty like i might speak
with a
weirder pronunciation than i used to
vocabulary and understanding it's pretty
much the same as it has been for like
the past
five or six years so something to keep
in mind uh
that hungarian is the only really really
beginner language
and then in order of uh beginner to more
fluent it's uh spanish
uh french and japanese so sort of
focusing on languages at different
levels that are not overwhelming myself
or making it too easy well that's it for
today
thank you all so much for watching uh oh

your absolute incredible generosity with
your kofi donations
