#hellotalk — Public Fediverse posts

#HelloTalk has been one of the greatest resources for me to improve my #Japanese. I have found chat/speaking partners (even met with one!) and native speakers correct my grammar! The app itself is also dogshit lol Full of bugs, annoying design decisions and monetization crap. And of course bullshit "AI". The other parts annoy me, but eh, I don't care too much. There is this one fucking AI bot that goes around correcting posts by users. And it keeps correcting my native German text parts! (...)

Was praised by my #Japanese teacher for being able to speak a lot quicker than usual🥹Learning a language is such a long and hard endeavor, so it's nice to see small improvements even if you are far from fluent 🥹Finally finding speaking partners (on #helloTalk) and taking some speaking lessons (on #italki) did help a lot. Highly recommend using these or similar services to just find someone to talk to in your target language

With all the garbage #AI #language learning stuff being marketed, I just want to say that it is actually really easy in this day and age to get information and explanations from native speakers directly.

With a bit of effort, you can also easily find regular partners to talk and chat to (...)

#iTalki doesn't like #HelloTalk 👀
Mentioning LINE and Skype was fine though... #LanguageLearning #langtoot #Immersion #ImmersionLearning

If you are interested in meeting with native speakers to improve your other languages, I recommend you these apps, #Tandem and #HelloTalk

I met my French, German, and Italian friends on #Tandem and Korean friends on #HelloTalk

SO COOL 😎👍🏻

Hm... How do I explain to this guy on #HelloTalk That I don't want to dl #WhatsApp? I already said I don't use it. (I said it in Spanish). He just gave me his number and said I can dl it. The app keeps warning me not to give personal information and I assume he's getting these warnings in Spanish.

I think it's one of those days/moods. I'm on #HelloTalk ( #Español / #spanish study day) and I keep trying to say "danke" instead of "gracias" :blobugh: Maybe I like the word?
