Hello Everyone. XD

I have recently got into Livemocha.com And i think its great. People should give it a try. There are lots of courses for different languages. People who speak the language you are learning can help you. Also you can help people who are learning you native language/ or fluent language. There are things like chat windows to talk to people to improve your language skills. Plus its free.

You should try it.

So...

Oh wow, they've added LOADS of languages since last time I visited, that's great!
... What the heck, they have Cornish there but not Welsh or Breton? That's pretty crazy XD

Well, I just logged in and apparently I already knew that! Ooops redface

Livemocha is a great site with a lot of free courses, I definitely agree that you guys should check it out.
It's sometimes a bit buggy for me though, that's really my only complaint.

Ah, Livemocha. I sort of have mixed feelings about it. I mean the learning part is helpful, but I hate the writing and speaking because they add things in that you haven't learned yet.

Like for instance, after the first lesson, it asked me to describe two things about each person. Okay. But in the example, it has the two things in the same sentence. I don't know how to do that!

Also when I was doing the speaking part in Japanese, it had words I have never learned. Because of this, I had to try and find it out what it was, because you know, it is in Kanji, and I hadn't learned that Kanji yet. And when a person was correcting it, they told that the word wasn't correct, which made me a little ticked off. Not at the person of course, but the fact that livemocha continues to add in extra things I've never learned.

I also made a mistake on the written part in Mandarin. Since I didn't know how to say 'and' in mandarin and I failed to know the characters, as a result I did something so very stupid.

I used the dreaded translator.

And because of that, I accidently said that all girls were fat and old. People were making rude comments on how bad it was and even doing the "Flicking you off" type of emoticon. I mean hello! I am not an expert at the language! And you aren't even trying to help! sad Thankfully though, a few nice people told me what I did wrong, but most were jerks about it.


So as you can see, my livemocha experience hasn't been the best. sweatdrop

Oh and if you want a buttload of friends, just say you are learning Mandarin, that's why I have so many friends, even though I haven't talked to any of them.

Really? What language are you using it for? German? Nobody would correct/comment on mine at first.

All I did was friend random people who speak German. sweatdrop

It's strange, but hey it works! lol

I did a reading excersize months ago, and no one commented on it. I've improved though, so I want to re-record it. Hehe....
