my Finnish uncle owned a Chevy Impala. in english we put emphasis on pronouncing the middle syllable, i.e. im-PAW-luh. my uncle, however, called his car an IMP-puh-luh.
nothing else has been more effective in teaching me, a us american with english as my first language, to pronounce novel words in finnish. thank you uncle edvin.
This is amazing to hear!
I feel like many English-only speakers could benefit from an experience like this; some just cling to their own intuition on intonation, stress, syllable weight, and pronunciation in general!
PS; your uncle sounds super cool!

What I've Been Enjoying Lately - Japanese Media
This is way overdue! I've been consuming so much great media in Japanese, it's time to share the love and recommend some things for all of you lovely language learners
📚 Books:
旅猫リポート - 有川浩: This is a super adorable novel about a stray cat who is taken in by a young man. Five years later, the owner is suddenly unable to take care of this cat and the two embark on a road trip across Japan to find the perfect new owner. This one is definitely a tear jerker to any animal lover and will absolutely make you want to cuddle your own fluffy friends into oblivion.
キノの旅 - 時雨沢恵一: This is a light novel series that's extremely close to my heart! The 2003 anime adaption of this series also isn't just my favorite anime, but my favorite TV show ever. Because of the relatively simple vocabulary, I often see it recommended as a first read for Japanese learners just dipping their toes into novel reading, and I find myself agreeing. This series follows a teenager named Kino who travel from country to country with a motorrad named Hermes. There's not much of a continuous plot and very few recurring characters, making it even easier to follow if something confuses you. Despite the fluffy sounding description, this series has a good amount of content warnings accompanying it and can get pretty gory at times as well.
僕らの地球の歩き方 - ソライモネ: An adorable manga series in which two men travel the world together under the agreement that, upon returning to Japan, they'll get married. I feel like if someone looked into my brain to find what I like in a series in order to create a manga series perfectly suited to my tastes, it would be 僕らの地球の歩き方. It's gay, it's adorable, it's about traveling the world, it's about loving the people around you and human culture and delicious food, I'm already crying. Definitely one of my all time favorites.
薔薇王の葬列 - 菅野文: I went back and forth about putting this on my list, but it's not titled "What I've Been Enjoying Lately" for nothing and boy oh boy have I been enjoying this lately. Perhaps I've been enjoying it a bit too much. A while back, I actually banned myself from reading this series because I didn't have the full set and would instantly be put in an awful mood if I caught up with the volumes I had. This manga series follows Richard Plantagenet III, yes, that one, and his ascendance to the British throne. This series is chock full of treachery, murder, violence, and everything else nice. Due to the... everything about this series.... there's a lot of unusual vocabulary, but it has furigana on everything, which helps a lot for speedy look ups.
気になってる人が男じゃなかった - 新井すみこ: Bonus manga! Because this one is worth it, and also because everyone needs a little more GL on their shelves. This manga is so good that I've even been seeing people who don't speak Japanese buy this to have on their shelves. It follows a slightly awkward girl and a gyaru from her class as the two bond of their shared love of western rock music. Yeah, this is the manga that's doing a collab with Nirvana.
📺 Shows and Movies:
Old Fashion Cupcake - This is a BL office romance drama about a middle aged man and his subordinate who begin acting like teenage girls in an attempt to regain some of their youth. Through eating sweets together, taking selfies and food pictures, and talking "girls' talk," the two deepen their bond. I don't think I can say this enough, I love food romances. If their is food involved in a romance, I'm there, no need to tell me twice. This series is super sweet and a really enjoyable watch.
カルテット - Four musicians meet by chance and decide to form a quartet together. However, each one has secrets that they're hiding. Bonus points to Netflix for actually having a J-drama I like for once. This series has a warm and cozy found family vibe, while still managing to have some of the most wildest shenanigans imaginable. I also really appreciated that this series seems to take some stances that I've never seen before, especially regarding family and what you owe to your parents.
映像研には手を出すな! - This anime follows three girls and their attempts to make anime. As an anime that is about the creation of anime, it's really no surprise that the art and animation is stand out in this series. I loved the ways that we as the viewer were able to see the imaginations of the characters. I also really enjoyed the characters, and the voice acting was phenomenal as well. This show is also home to one of the best intros ever.
赤髪の白雪姫 - This fantasy anime follows the titular character Shirayuki as she escapes from her home kingdom after being chosen as a royal concubine due to her unusual red hair. On her travels, she meets a prince from a neighboring kingdom and becomes a palace herbalist. It's not often that I watch or care about straight romances in media, but this romance is so adorable, and even beyond it, I truly love all the characters and their relationships in this series. Also, I think this is the only show I've watched where I found the soundtrack to actually be distracting- and not because I didn't like it, but because it was just that good.
🎤 Music:
オーガストの風 - THE BLACKBAND
夢伝説 - Stardust Revue
lemonade - Chili Beans.
Show - Ado
#this one is a juggernaut of recommendations in the books category#youre getting like all my favorites at once because i havent had a chance to talk about any of them separately yet#hoping to find a lot more favorites soon#but the shows and books that i watched a little while ago i was like hhhhhhhh brain broke while trying to write about them sob#langblr#studyblr#language learning#polyglot#languages#studyinspo#日本語#benkyou posting#sorry i havent been watching youtube or listening to podcasts in japanese latelyyyy#i tried one podcast and wasnt really into it#but if anyone knows any good youtube channels or podcasts about books please let me know!!!

I really wonder if I sound hyper feminine when I’m speaking japanese.
#i feel like I only do listening practice with japanese spoken by young women 😭#i watch quite a few drawing and gaming channels on YouTube#like i dont know what social cues I might be sending when I speak that I’m not entirely aware of#I’ve also watched a few animes in Japanese which hopefully won’t somehow sink into my mind and make me sound like an anime girl lol#like dungeon meshi might make me sound weird if I speak like some fantasy elf lol#anyway it’s just fun to think about i don’t really care#my friend said I had good pronunciation but he probably had a very low bar#he’s really sweet he messages me happy birthday in Japanese and stuff :)#anyway#Quinn posts#Japanese#Japanese langblr#langblr

my favourite korean (study) youtube channels
i thought it would be fun to share a couple of my fav korean channels that i use regularly for studying. all of these are podcasts except one cuz i struggle with listening so i try to focus on that the most.
최수수 - she posts podcasts and vlogs for beginners and intermediate learners. she also offers printable transcripts for the videos with vocab lists and writing practice (some are free and others are about 2-3$) these podcasts get posted on apple podcasts (and i believe other podcast platforms as well)
Professor Yoon - my king! love this man so much lol. he has some of the best grammar explanations.
Storytime Korean - podcast channel! they also post gameplay videos which are really really fun.
몰입한국어 Immersion in Korean - they post podcasts for beginners and intermediate and have speaking practice at the end where they ask questions about the video contents.
#i watch a lot of kr beauty gurus as another fun way to study#so maybe i'll make another post with just those channels#korean#korean langblr#langblr#studyblr#kiki#한국어 연습

So i've just started studying swedish for an exchange i might be able to do in one year, and i'm looking for stuff to read/watch/listen to in swedish, outside of those resources that are traditionally for language learners. It doesn't matter what level it is; in the worst of cases, it will give me something to look forward to understanding. So i'm asking all swedish speakers who happen to see this:
Is there any book, or show, or youtube channel, or podcast, or media in general that's in swedish and that you'd recommend to me?
I'd be interested in about anything, but here are some possible subjects (anything outside of them is fine too):
History
Food
Gaming content (e.g. let's players)
Science (incl. math and computer science)
Fantasy stuff
Sci-fi
Roleplaying (e.g. DnD)
Knitting, crocheting, etc.
Art, drawing, etc.
Hopefully this won't disappear in the void of tumblr, and thanks a lot to anyone who answers!

Hi! Idk if you got your answer, but from when I studied mandarin YEARS ago, if you have more than 1 3rd tone (falling rising) in a word/phrase, its promounced as a 2nd tone UNLESS its at the end or the last 3rd tone.
So examples:
A word that's tones are 233 would be pronounced: 223
A phrase that goes 12433324 would be pronounced: 12422324
A phrase thats 33333 would be: 32223
Iirc theres a youtuber called ShuoShuo Chinese who talks about this. It was either her or Grace Mandarin Chinese
Hey, thanks for the ask!! I've gotten a few conflicting answers about this, where some people advocate for alternate 2nd and 3rd tones and some for your explanation - with every 3rd tone becoming a 2nd except the final 3rd.
So what I'm understanding is that there's really no right answer - or if there is, it's not one that's easily agreed upon 🤣
tbh I don't think I'm there enough in my speaking/listening to actually worry about this yet, it's just something I've always wondered ever since I found out about the rule. For now, though, I'm going to keep practicing my tones and learning new vocab before I even think about needing it - and hopefully as I listen Mandarin media, the answer/flow/sandhi should start to come more natural to me 😊
#langblr#BUT on the flip side to this#its absolutely important to know that there are tone changes and the rules of them#so like im glad i know but also like.... the answer was way more complicated than i thought it would be haha 😅#ALSO i already subscribe to those channels on youtube!!!#.... just goes to show how i have not been keeping up with them lately 😅#should really start getting proper back into learning#thank you for the ask!!! i really do appreciate it!!#我感谢你的帮助!!#<‐ see im trying lmao

I recently come across Robin MacPherson's YouTube channel and I've found he has quite a few really good, insightful videos in regards to language learning.
I just watched this one he posted from 2 year ago that's given me some good advice for helping me with trying to work out an efficient study routine for myself, since after finishing my Japanese classes and sort of being forced into a break for a few years, it has been a bit difficult getting back into a sort of study routine.
Anyway, just wanted to share this video and Robin's channel since it's been helping me out with structuring a new routine for myself, that maybe there's something there that can help any of you as well. :)
