Similar to the WaniKani forums, which has a Japanese only subcategory, I think it would be nice if something like that would be added to the Natively forums as well for the corresponding languages (which are currently Japanese, German, Spanish and Korean). This would allow fellow language lerners to practice production (if they decide to participate) and reading (if they decide to lurk).
Not an important information, but: The main reason I made this request is because of Harunaโs Daily Diary over on the Bunpro forums, as she is a native Japanese speaker, and I thought I could do something similar for German to help German learners! I donโt want to write a diary, though, because Iโm not motivated enough, thatโs why I thought a subcategory for writing only in these languages would be nice. Iโm not sure if this is relevant for the Natively forums, as it is more focused on reading and watching, but in my opinion, it would be nice to have in a language learning forum. This is my first request, so I hope I didnโt do anything wrong
I think itโd be lovely! Although, I think if you start a topic in German / Japanese / any language category stating that itโs foreign language only, thatโd be great as a beginning!
So I say go for it on a german-only topic, letโs see the traction
FYI, weโre still very small in german so donโt be too alarmed if there arenโt that many bites, but we do also have a lot of german natives hanging aboutโฆ itโd be interesting regardless
Iโll try to launch the thread tomorrow. I can probably also launch one for Japanese, if thatโs ok with you, but Iโll need one or two days because my Japanese isnโt that good yet, but I think good enough to start such a thread.
Ok, Iโve now launched a thread for German and Japanese only. Iโm pretty sure that I made some mistakes in the OP for Japanese, so if anyone finds any mistakes, please let me know so that I can fix them!
I just launched a thread for Korean! Donโt mind the mistakes for now, Iโll reread that introduction in the morning, when Iโm more awake.
Edit: After rereading it, I donโt think I made any obvious mistakes, at least none that I could notice. But still, feel free to correct me!
