#MandarinChineseLangSky Would love to hear from all the #Mandarinlearners on here when it comes to their experiences with #Mandarinspeakers saying a word you are using is not the best word for your purposes, only to have other native speakers disagree with them. How do you decide who is right?

Such good advice! You may already have a "fresh" resource right under your nose.

Don’t worry so much about if you “can” learn a new language. It’s more about deciding that you *will* It’s more about time, patience, and commitment #langsky

Episode 5 of #FluentishThePodcast is LIVE! We're tackling Listening Skills. youtube.com/shorts/kffsW... #LangSky

Last night I was doing my Duolingo while my husband was watching @yellowstonetv.bsky.social when he saw this over my shoulder, chuckled and paused his show, and said "Screw you, Duolingo. I'm just over here tryna live my life!" #LangSky #judgmental #YOLO 😆

Mood.

We’re diving into one of the most loaded—and misunderstood—questions in language learning: “But how do I know which accent is the 'right' accent?” #FluentishthePodcast S1 Ep.4 has dropped! #LangSky #polyglots #CanadianAccent #AccentPositivity #ActorTips #VoiceAndSpeech youtu.be/xqsLfqS0W9Q

🎙️ Episode 3 is live!! Picking a language to learn is a lot like picking a wedding dress—some people go on vibes, others need a whole framework to feel good about their choice. We break down the how behind picking the right next language for you. #LangSky 🌍💬 www.youtube.com/watch?v=hh5x...

@sabinelittle.bsky.social I found another book I wanted to show you! #bilingualbooks #LittleByron #frenchandenglish #mandarinandenglish #carolineadderson #bilingualparenting #alicecarter

Well *this* is cool! "Seattle Public Schools serves more than 6,700 English language learners who come from 159 different countries and speak 158 languages and dialects across the district." #LangSky miparentscouncil.org/2025/04/27/a...

I am on the look out for linguistically diverse picture books. Specifically, books that integrate multiple languages - not as bilingual picture books, but as part of the general narrative. (Bonus if they include more than two languages, but not requirement!) #langsky Please share!

This is an important reminder to all of us language learners. It brought to mind the Science of Creative Intelligence Principle that says "Rest and activity are the steps of progress." It's my favourite of the principles; it reminds us to be gentle with ourselves and stay realistic.

This is very good news but it seems that when they refer to "minority languages" they mean Eng and French -only-. Does anyone know more details as to whether the #GovernmentofCanada will put aside any money for Mandarin Chinese learning? #learnchinese #foreignlanguage www.canada.ca/en/canadian-...

Very cool! Welsh is such a beautiful language to listen to (even if we here at Little Crab cannot understand a single word).

Oooooohhhh love love love this. So nerdy. So satisfying.

Our email list subscribers get a sneak peak at the first two episodes of our podcast today (which was "tomorrow" when I started working after putting the kids to bed). Head to littlecrabpress.ca to join the list if you're curious! #LangSky #BuildInPublic

The CBC podcast Commotion hosted by @elamin.bsky.social is just so 👏 darn 👏 good 👏 If you're interested in #CanLit on any level, you'll be interested in this episode. open.spotify.com/episode/6FOv...

I was able to be in Victoria with my sister for the first week of Spring Break. It was fabulous AND we managed to record episodes 2+3 of the podcast over the course of two days! Sign up at littlecrabpress.ca/pages/fluent... to first looks of eps 1+2 in our March Newsletter. #BuildInPublic #LangSky

@elizabethweise.bsky.social : great article. A shame they decided not to keep going. You'd think having more American kids learning Mandarin plus their American English would be considered a boon. Instead it's a "savings of (approx. $500,000+) dollars". Sigh. miparentscouncil.org/2025/03/12/l...

@cbcstephenquinn.bsky.social looking forward to the segment about renaming streets in Vancouver. Can you shed any light on why we haven't seen the naming of Trutch physically updated? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Tonight our email list will be getting a sneak peek at the trailer for our upcoming #podcast for language learners. Next month our subscribers gets a early access to the first two episodes. If you want in, there's still time to get on the list. littlecrabpress.ca #BuildInPublic #LangSky

Love 👏 this 👏 on many levels. youtube.com/shorts/6S96h... #LangSky #Linguistics #Etymology

"Language is more than just words. It's more than just the knowing the grammar. It's more than knowing the vocabulary. It's more than all that. There's a secondary layer; there is culture. ...Language is culture, and they're inextricable." - @steveboots.bsky.social Watch from 10m for more. #LangSky

The Canadian Social Studies nerds + the language nerds within us = crossing paths in this video! Loving the "why language matters" of this topic (gets into it after the beginning section)! (Ps. Political party stuff all aside, this vid is fun on a language + culture level). youtu.be/J-8uSQGzCXI?...

Tomorrow is International Mother Language Day here in Canada. Some fascinating info in this article from @globalvoices.org about it: globalvoices.org/special/inte...

Article explains the importance of listening skills to good hearing; this is something that those learning languages are constantly engaged with. #langsky

After some necessary pauses, it now feels like we are positively flying through the development of our podcast. We've completed writing up to Episode 6, and have the rest of the season outlined. Excited to serve language learners with this experience-backed info this spring. #LangSky #BuildInPublic

One of the beauties of learning additional languages!

This segment with @mattgalloway.bsky.social on CBC Radio One's The Current was FASCINATING! So much interesting info about communication systems. How can studying whale songs and human baby babble help us understand language acquisition? #LangSky www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

Here's your reminder that when you do listening work, you don't need to transcribe everything 😉 #langsky
