Hebrew started clicking for me when I started to see it not just as a language, but in terms of music. To me, hebrew is like complex sheet music, composed of notation that I am learning.
And to me, that's poetic because hebrew is the language I sing to g-d. It is the language I use to express gratitude and thanks and recognition. It is the language I use to express sorrow, grief, and hope. It's the language that tells me about g-d. It is the language I am learning in the same way I am learning about the people I am joining - the people with whom feel just as much as family as my own father. As someone who is incredibly music-based, it has made my journey in learning hebrew more personal and meaningful because it made hebrew make sense to me.
#jumblr#hebrew#jewish conversion#jew by choice#personal thoughts tag#because my hebrew journey is just as much a part of my conversion imo#i get frustrated when i don't understand henrew but it's because i WANT to understand it#and it's hard sometimes! it's been easier because i have spoken other languages which have similar structure to hebrew#like spanish is similar to me so there was less of a leap between speaking english and then hebrew

me: "the water bill is paid"
mom: "have you paid this yet" shows me the water bill
#honest to god I feel insane#she immediately turned around like she was responding to me#are her thoughts narrated in my voice or something?#does she not process what she heard as a real life occurrence but her brain processes it subconsciously?#and still I wonder if it's because I spoke in english#she understood 'water' with the bill in her field of vision#and processed that as me asking about it#idek man#I feel crazy when I am telling her things and she only halfway understands me#but this happens in Spanish too#she's old I guess#but she doesn't acknowledge that I had spoken first...#she speaks as if she's the one starting the conversation...#idk idk

Hey y’all! Do you know of any good sites to learn non-baby ASL for phrases like can I pet your dog, are you okay, do you need help, please help me, or other things like that? Mostly I just want to be able to communicate with one of my neighbors in an emergency, but also she walks her dogs around the neighborhood and they are adorable and I really want to be able to ask if I can pet them, but googling it is just getting me baby ASL tutorial videos and idk if that’s the same
#the person behind the yarn#ideally I want to learn all those phrases and any other important emergency phrases in every language spoken in my neighborhood#having to evacuate from fires back in california kinda instilled in me a like...you MUST be able to communicate with the community#and you MUST be able to get out in case of an emergency#and I can't drive. so I guess I should also learn#please help I can't drive so I can't evacuate or something like that#my neighbor's parents are long term visiting from India and do not speak like any English at all#so I also want to learn phrases like this (except maybe the can I pet your dog one) in a language they do understand#but idk which one that is yet. I only talked to that neighbor once but I've had a few charades conversations with his dad#nice dude! but I know there are multiple languages it could be and I want to get it right#is this all overkill: probably yet. Would it be better to pick one language and learn it fluently so I could really talk to that neighbor:#possibly! but idk if I can#I do think I can learn helpful emergency phrases in several languages though

uni is like. you learn a subject really in depth and are kinda proud of it. you realise you dont actually want to do anything related to your major so this will never be useful to you ever
#and even if i did i still wouldnt need generative linguistics in order to be a translator#im not even at a conversational level in arabic and my spoken english sucks. oh well#back to learning all the african linguistic families for no reason#i cant even half ass this exam cause she fails 2 thirds of students its actually crazy

tip for fellow autistic people, if you’re telling someone about a trip you have to go on and they ask “is it like a fun thing or an obligation” the correct response in that instance is NOT “well it’s not like a funeral or anything”. That is not the question they are asking you

#ask meme answers#beyondthebackup#ooc posts#the funnest part of this is going to be figuring out what F has evedyone saved as#I'm just nor gonna change mybtyoing mistakes for these#because F is typing most of this very much impaired#also F learned enough English to be coherent and pass English class and sometimes learns big words from movies#and then he gave up so don't expect him to type reasonably#and don't expect him to hold coherent conversations in Chinese or any other language spoken in Taiwan (there are several and F ia familiar#with alot of them) because he's just bad at language period

Some words that had me confused as someone who learned a lot of vocab by reading, in no specific order:
- chamomile (I used to say the mile parte as "meel")
- epitome (this one seems pretty commonly mispronounced as epitOme, at least I did it)
- salmon (I still don't know the correct way to day this)
- anemone (also don't know how to pronounce this)

#its the fact that a know so many specific words but will be afraid to use them in spoken conversation#cus i dont know if im saying them right#relatable#english is my second language#english

I'd probably pick 4 instead. As someone with auditory processing disorder who is bilingual, my listening skills are mediocre at best. Writing and reading, however, were my strong suits. Being guaranteed I could understand it when spoken, I think I could learn to read whatever language I wanted if given the time.

Humour me?
#not being able to understand spoken chinese was honestly the most disheartening part of learning it#my writing is excellent#vocabulary makes reading hard but i can deal with it#but an actual spokeen conversation is so hard#i can barely understand when people talk to me in english sometimes
