JLPT N3 is comparable to CEFR B1; JLPT N2 is equivalent to CEFR B2, and JLPT N1 basically requires the same skills as CEFR C1. but consider the fact that to get to JLPT N1, the highest level of fluency for the most popular Japanese proficiency test, you need, on average, starting from no knowledge of Japanese at all (including kanji), 3000–4800 hours. to get to CEFR C2 in German, that being the highest level of the most popular framework for measuring European-language proficiency, you should study around 750 hours, maybe more. mind you this is measured with monolingual native English speaker -> target language perspectives in mind, but still, like, what the hell man. look at the requirements:

CEFR C2 (750-900 hours in German): "[understanding] with ease virtually everything heard or read … [and expressing oneself] spontaneously, very fluently and precisely, differentiating finer shades of meaning even in the most complex situations."

JLPT N1 (3000-4800 hours): "able to read [various and profound] writings with [logical/abstract] complexity … [and] comprehend orally presented materials [in a wide variety of settings] … spoken at natural speed … [and] also able to understand the details … such as the relationships among the people involved, the logical structures, and the essential points."

if you study German well for 3 hours a day, every day, nonstop, until you hit the 750 hours of study for CEFR C2, you're more than fluent in 250 days. okay, the US State Department says you need 900 hours, so the time it takes to become fluent changes to... oh... 300 days.

if you study Japanese well for 3 hours a day, every day, nonstop, until you hit the 3000 hours of study for JLPT N1, you're more-or-less fluent (not even definitively!) in 2.7 years. for 4800 hours it takes 4.3 years.

and studying 3 hours a day every day is basically unreasonable for most people! not to mention "real language heads" study for 10 hours a day. a regular person would probably do about an hour or two a day, right? and probably have weekends where studying doesn't happen. so let's say 2 hours a day, monday-friday; 10 hours a week. with 52.14 weeks in a year, you get about 521.4 hours of studying in per year.

with this regimen you achieve considerable German fluency in about a year and a half of study, and are probably on the same level as university students. the same habits will get you high-school-level Japanese fluency in 8 years.

now obviously all this assumes a lot: consistent learning ability, consistently paced lessons, not skipping any days, not forgetting anything, etc etc etc. but i think these numbers more or less hold

What a day man

If I had a euro for every time a fucking tourist family decided to scream at me for something I have no power or say over... (Add another euro every time an old guy makes some incredibly strange comment about me.)

Just. British tourists are fucking everywhere, and they're so, so disrespectful. Mass tourism is dreadful. I keep getting tiktoks where everyone is talking about how they're all vacationing in Spain and just. Where do we go if every building is being bought to use as a bnb?? I don't mind tourism, I just wish tourists had an ounce of respect.

A guy yesterday had the balls to tell me that he's paying a lot of money to live in Spain so that I can have this job. A month ago a guy told me "he was surprised that despite Spain being a rich country, barely anyone spoke English" and just. Spain has five official languages and you can study up to SIX in regular school (Spanish, whichever regional language you have, English, French is always available as an optional class, and if you study humanities you must take Latin and Greek classes) LIKE how many languages do YOU speak???

Other tourists at LEAST try to communicate in broken Spanish, they KNOW your average Joe doesn't speak German or Russian or Italian. But BRITISH tourists?? EVERYTHING is catered to them. EVERYTHING is for them. I'm so tired.

I'm the only person in my workplace with a C2 level in English so I have to take care of most of the talking.

Just. I'll be real and just say that I hate how English has become the lingua franca of the world. How you can't expect to achieve relevancy without speaking it. How I go online to hear about everything and anything to do with the US and then look away from my phone to deal with British tourists wearing "I <3 Benidorm/Mallorca/Madrid/Toledo/Granada" shirts.

I can barely get people to care about my first language and now I have to talk to people who don't even care about Spanish? Who don't try? Who throw an "Hola" and "Gracias" and then look puzzled when I speak Spanish? Who can't differentiate between the culture of the south, north, east and west of the country? Because I assure you, you will NOT find bullfighters and flamenco dancers and paella in proximity.

Do they know about Valencian? Catalan? Galician? Euskera? Basque? Do they know about Turrón? About the centuries we spent as Arab territory? Do they know? Do they care? Would they like to know?

Touristic cities are a paradox of being SO Spanish it's uncanny and also having not a single ounce of Spanish in them, it's all english breakfasts and italian/chinese/indian/etc restaurants and souvenir shops.

I saw a slideshow of a British guy taking pics posing next to "tourists go home" & "end mass tourism" graffiti and had to take a break from looking at my phone for the rest of the day

~◇~ Welcome to my langblr ~◇~

◇ Hi, my name is Alexandra, and linguistics is my passion! Below you will find the detailed information about my language study plan as well as the contents that will be posted on this blog.

• Short version: my native language is Romanian. My current focus is getting fluent in Polish (currently at around B1-B2), improving my French (also around B2) and finding a Romanian Sign Language course. In terms of linguistics, my main interests are historical and comparative linguistics, etymology, language typology, language acquisition, language evolution, innovation and word formation.

◇ Why "Lingwistyka Bałto-Sławistyka"?

• This sideblog started when I was writing a paper about the common origins of Slavic and Baltic Languages. The name is in Polish because it's the main language I'm learning. As for the Baltic part, I still really want to learn Lithuanian one day.

~ ◇ ~ How I got into linguistics ~ ◇ ~

My first contact with foreign languages was my dad teaching me to say "I love you" in as many languages as he knew how to, since I was a toddler. During early childhood, the main foreign language I was exposed to was English, mostly via Disney movies, other cartoons, and, later on, the Internet. During middle school, I took up French, being a mandatory subject, and studied it in school for 8 years. At some point in 6th grade I tried teaching myself Japanese using one textbook and anime, and it didn't even get me to an A1 level. However, if I had the chance, I would take it up again in the future.

More importantly, in 6th grade, my teacher enrolled me in the linguistics olympiad, which I fell in love with at first sight. I had never seen such a thing before, and I was completely awestruck. I remember that it was a problem in which we had to decipher Luwian hieroglyphs. I loved it so much that I continued to attend this olympiad yearly for the rest of my pre-university schooling. Another relevant detail is that I learned the etymology of my name at around the age of 15, and binge read dozens if not hundreds of behindthename entries. This solidified a lifelong interest in etymology and historical linguistics.

Specifically because of my interest in linguistics, I pursued a philology (literature + linguistics) degree in college, being an English major and a Russian minor. I had taken up Russian from scratch, and reached approximately a B1 level. However, I also took an elective Polish course, only once a week for 3 years, and got a higher language level than Russian, which was my minor. It helps that I went to Poland twice in the meantime.

I am currently enrolling in a linguistics masters program, hoping to deepen my knowledge of the subject and learn how to do real research of my own. My short term language learning goals, aside from perfecting my Polish and French, would be to start studying Romanian Sign Language.

About me

Hey 😊

And welcome to my study-sideblog. My name is Sonja, I am 29 years old and I love learning, especially languages. I'm currently studying to become a translator.

My native language is German. And I'm studying English (somewhere between C1 and C2 level) and Swedish (A1).

I'm always happy to make friends who love studying or learning languages too. 💙

[wintvies]

never forgetting about the girl in my class that basically bribed the german teachers with gifts so that she could go on a school trip to munich, and stole my spot to go there, even though she cheats on all of her german exams and her speaking level barely reaches the required b1, while my speaking level is c1-c2…….

thanks nastia! you’re a fucking bitch 💕

[annsephine]

i'm back by popular demand!!

Hey guys!! Guess who's back?!?!

I'm now trying to get back in the game, so I hope I can post more about my journey with languages and writing.

This year I'm focusing on improving my (british) english. I want to reach C1, almost C2 by the end of the year (I need all the luck, motivation and time I can get). I'm a solid B2 (at least it's my score in every test I take). I have the usual problems: lack of grammar (prepositions??? Is that something to eat?) I would die if my life depends on using in/at/on correctly. And I need more vocab, nothing fancy, but I need to improve it. My goal is to write 50k in september (I'm not gonna name the challenge, but if you know, you know). If you're going to do a similar challenge, just DM me!!

Next year I'm going to prioritize my (chilean) spanish. yeah, you read that right. I'm gonna try to learn chilean english on my own. Wish me luck!! I know some spanish, but chilean spanish?? That's a whole different level of spanish. And if you are chilean and want to chat next year with someone borderline funny and chaotic, just let me know! And I'm trying to decide on learning italian, german or norwegian next year. I know a thing or two in those languages, but I really want to focus on one of them next year. Any suggestion or study buddies are appreciated.

On top of that, I'm writing my master's dissertation and have to finish it by March AND write my PhD project until November, so I can apply by the beginning of December.

I don't know how alive is the langblr and studyblr community (I left for an insane amount of time), but if you are learning a language or studying for something and need some accountability, just hit me up! I can help with portuguese too!

[salvadorbonaparte]

Microagression of the day: my landlady's neighbour/friend constantly asking me "do you understand what I'm saying" or "do you know what (basic English word) means".

I live in Ireland to get my postgraduate degree in English-German translation. I lived in England for three years. And I had a C2 level before moving there.

[pure-ablution]

Can you write the purpose of each language you speak?

Farsi/Ukrainian: my native languages (C2+, no qualification)

Gilaki/Azeri/Talysh/Armenian: I heard these languages in my town when I was growing up, as they’re the languages of the different ethnicities that live there (B2, no qualification)

Old Church Slavonic: I can read OCS as it’s the ancestor of Ukrainian, and the language of the Orthodox Bible (C1, no qualification)

Polish: Polish is very similar to Ukrainian, and my hometown in Ukraine is close to the Polish border, so I improved a lot when I lived there (C1, I have my CEPFL)

English: I learnt English in high school and currently attend a university in England (C2, I have my CPE)

Russian: I learnt Russian in high school and I spent my teenage years in Ukraine, where a lot of media is in Russian and many people speak Russian as a first language (C2, I have my TORFL-IV)

German: I took German classes in high school and taught myself to a higher level, because I considered it to be useful to know the main languages of the European artistic world (C2, I have my Goethe Certificate)

French: I taught myself French for the same reason as German—it’s one of the main languages of the European artistic world (C2, I have my DALF)

Italian: I taught myself Italian for the same reason as German & French—it’s one of the main languages of the European artistic world (C2, I have my CILS 4)

Latin: I study Classics at university, and my course is very language-heavy. I was taught to speak it from the very beginning (C1, I received top marks in my main Latin exams and I speak the language daily)

Ancient Greek: same as Latin. I use Ancient Greek slightly less often, but I can read historical texts and make conversation fluently (~B2+, I received top marks in my main Greek exams)

Hungarian: I’ve been learning Hungarian for 2 years, as it’s Alajos’ native language (taking my B2 ECL soon)

Biblical Hebrew: I started Biblical Hebrew classes as an optional module in my 1st year of uni, and I’ve continued learning for Bible study (not sure of my level—I can read pretty fluently)

Cantonese: I’ve been learning Cantonese for 2 years, because the career I want to go into has strong links in Hong Kong (B2+, I have my A Level)

Mandarin: I’ve been learning Mandarin for 1 year, for the same reason as Cantonese (taking my HSK 6 (~B2+) soon)

hiii!!

✏️, 🌟 & 👻, pleaseee?

Hi anon, nice to meet you & thank you for the ask :)

✏️ a big misconception about your field/a popular, but wrong fact related to your field that makes you cringe?

I study both languages and literature. I cringe when people say "I'm too old to learn a language" or "This language is too hard to learn". No it's not!!! You can do it if you really want to! Maybe you'll never get to a C2 level but you will get damn near close if you let go of this sort of excuses. I just want to grab those people by the shoulders and shake the low self-esteem out of them.

🌟 share one of your academic “core memories”!

I'm not sure what defines an academic core memory but uhm... During COVID most lectures were online. One of my professors had a cat that would sometimes end up on camera and one day every student started showing their own pet. And we are talking about a 200-student class! So many proud pet owners, hehe.

👻 share an academic horror story! (bad group projects, missed an exam, etc)

I don't think I had real horror stories, thankfully. More like stressful ones, like having 7 exams in one week or waiting from 9 am to 8 pm to take an exam. But one time I showed up at an exam and the professor didn't, lol.

It was a German exam and the guy was in charge of the written part. We wait for him for more than one hour and then the faculty finally manages to contact him. As it turns out he didn't have internet at his house so he hadn't received the email with the exam dates??? Anyway, we did the speaking part first with another professor while he ran to the university (which took him another hour). When he arrived he did not have a written test prepared so he just printed random exercises from the workbook.

They were way easier than anything he could have prepared so his mistake was actually convenient. I would have never gotten such a good grade otherwise. (ach, this is making me miss German)
