I’m dead 🤣

@MLautmer Nah, personally I think the overwhelm w/ the grammar is just cos it’s soooo different from most Langs that use the Latin Alphabet. Korean is one of the easiest writing systems to learn yet the grammar still twists the brain 😂 don’t get intimidated. Slow & steady wins the race♥️

Also, why is it always sexy women pictures?
Haven’t you stupid bots figured out yet that I’m a straight cis woman?
At least gimme sexy men spam accounts! 😑😝
There seems to be a lot of misinformation floating around outside as well as inside the immersion community apparently.
The biggest of which is that CI is a “method”. It isn’t. It’s the name of a hypothesis & the core principle of Krashens Second Language Acquisition Theory
Lol, I love how Twitter was like „this contains harmful language that might be in violation of our rules“ when I tried to post this. REALLY????? 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
