Mandarin. I'm in China at the moment so it's a fun process that is happening all day.

中文

Spanish. But it's the fun part now as I can just read/watch/listen. I miss the odd word and I have to pick my materials carefully but otherwise I can just sit back and enjoy. It doesn't feel so much like studying/learning anymore. Although I do need to brush up on my grammar, especially tenses, and practise speaking. Unfortunately, I'm not too near any Spanish-speaking places to get that practice in.

I'm focusing on Japanese, but recent shake-ups in my life have knocked me out of my habits.

I should probably be working more actively to cultivate my Russian, I feel it's getting rusty.

Trying to learn Indonesian Bahasa but it's not going well. I'm thankful the language uses Latin characters though. Terima kasih.

I kinda want to learn Dutch because it sounds funny

Mandarin, spanish, and toki pona every day.

Spanish, German, Russian, Mandarin

中文

I'm trying to learn arabic. But by now i only got the letters/alphabet. and some words.

I started in Duolingo but aside from the lessons for the letters it is pretty unhelpful. Language Transfer ist great, although its focus in son speaking. For reading and writing i'm continuing with Arabic Unlocked.

Russian on Babble. I tried Doulingo for Russia and Mandarin in the past and I really struggled to stick with it.

I'm learning Hebrew

Chinese on Duolingo. Moving there in a little over a month so trying to get a little head start.

I speak a few languages, it's like the one thing I seem to have a knack for.

I have been working on my Mandarin again, I studied it some in university but have not used it actively for years. There's potential I could transfer to my company's head asian office, which is based in China. My position wouldn't require it, but living there I would want to improve my Chinese level. I should probably learn Cantonese too on that note.

It's a pretty fun language to study, because after you are comfortable with the pronunciations it is all just vocab and idioms. The grammatical structure is like my favourite thing.

Mandarin and Japanese

I'm mostly learning Arabic and Danish. With Arabic I'm learning Standard Arabic (FusHa) and Levantine dialect. I'm past beginners level but not further than that. My FusHa is better but hoping to learn more Levantine, since that's what people actually speak. I'm almost fluent in Danish, I just need to focus more on listening skills and pronunciation. But I'm also doing one Russian lesson per day on Duolingo. I want to study Russian more in depth in the future, and want to pick up Mandarin and Hindi again.

I had German in school, and besides occasional lessons to brush up my knowledge I'm not doing anything with it.

EDIT: Forgot that I want to pick up Portuguese as well, but I'm already pretty okay at it

Greek, but I haven't been focused or committed for the past 9 months.

Flemish

I mainly study French, I’ve just cleared the CEFR A2 ☺️

I study a lot of other languages more casually, mostly Mandarin but also Russian, German, Arabic, and Spanish

Russian, using an 18 unit video course. It's going ok to start, but I think I need to begin to supplement it with in-person classes to get the conversational practice going.

Idk, Tagalog...?

Chinese from HelloChinese app is my main one that I consider important, that I want to eventually reach fluency on. But I am also at a point with learning through the app alone where I'm past the "leaps and bounds" phase, I've completed the course both with Pinyin visible and with only 汉字, and so a lot of it is just steadily continuing to learn through the stories and "immersive lessons", and trying to eke out gains in comprehension and memorization and such.

So in order to handle that freshness wearing off, I also mix in learning other languages here and there. The main source of that has been Japanese and Korean through YuSpeak. I also spent some time learning the Cyrillic alphabet; I recommend the app "3 hour Cyrillic by 'Russian Made Easy'" for this, it's both free and it puts the letters in context of words they'd be used in. Then I've made some effort to learn the Arabic alphabet too, but haven't really found an app that clicks well for doing so.

I wanted to get back into French, cause that was my original main attempt at learning a second language before I got into Chinese, but again, haven't found an app that clicks well for it. I originally was learning French through Duolingo but quit it a while back when they pushed the "health system" that penalizes mistakes. Then I tried to get into it through Busuu, both in the past and more recently, but their course design is annoyingly inconsistent at this point, in both content and the length of a lesson.
