This marks my debut comment on RUclips, having been a loyal follower of your channel. The narratives in your videos evoke a subtle sense of nostalgia in me. Extended moments during showers and, yes, those prolonged bathroom breaks, often leave me pondering aimlessly. Perhaps, the dawn of 2024 doesn't necessarily guarantee a brighter experience than its predecessor, 2023.
Damn, you look like somebody who really needs a big hug... whatever is going on in your life rn, I'm sure you're gonna get through it just fine :) Sending love & support from UA
Thank you so much for your support! I studied the Jeju language for a few weeks but unfortunately nobody spoke it with me in Jeju haha, but it's really a fun language and has many interesting words.
Hi Phoenix, 你的视频带给我太多学习语言的灵感和动力，谢谢你！我也是个语言爱好者，但天赋不及你百一，现在在啃英文诗歌和荷兰语，至于其他语言我已然力不从心，只能看你的视频聊以自慰了。从你的视频中我体会到一种在疼痛与坚持中获得快乐的心境，特别契合语言学习的过程，我也慢慢学会感受，接受，享受这样的过程。希望你2024更顺利，希望你2024更出彩！
The concept of reaching more into the inactive vocab is pretty interesting, that is what I am struggling with in spanish.. to some point we reach a plateau.. will do the same for 2024! 加油
Can't wait to read your book one day in the future bro, awesome to hear about it My 2024 goal is to read every 余华 book, currently 2.9/21 lol - really loving his stuff
Happy 2024, Phoenix! As someone else said, your content always boosts my motivation, so I have to thank you for that. Regarding venturing into C2 territory though, I'm not quite sure just reading and talking to yourself will be enough, but again it depends on your personal goals and how you view yourself as a user of the target language. If you want to transfer passive vocabulary to active especially when speaking, I'd say you have to spend a lot of time talking and sharing with natives, otherwise you won't use natural collocations and the word choice will be awkward. At such high level, languages become more and more a matter of 语言习惯，搭配 and all that jazz that is almost impossible to grasp on your own. Maybe reading a ton of content helps 突破口 in that realm of the written language, but I'm not sure about the actual spoken, everyday language. Thanks for the content and see you on the next one! PD: native Spanish speaker here, feel free to reach out if you need anything 😊👍
Thanks a lot for your comment and your support! I I think writing surely is the highest level of employment of any language. And I’ll try to write more in my languages as well. Hopefully you’ll be able to see my improvements next time you hear my Spanish
Awesome video dude, very inspirational. In general what do you think is a good way to improve speaking ability? I’m worried about speaking to myself because there’s no one to correct me. But I’m also running into the same issue where my recognizable/passive vocabulary is way way larger than my active vocabulary
But I feel like the staircase tends to get longer and longer the higher you go up. The distance between C1 and C2 has to be pretty steep, like most natives aren't even at that level right? So it may take a bit longer, however I have no doubt that you'll get there. 😊 Best of luck to you this year and I hope you reach your goals!
So, firstly thanks for your videos, I just discovered you and yea, you kinda inspired me. And hearing your Chinese made me remember why I wanted to study it. So yea, thanks :) Another thing, I was watching another of your vids and you talked about maybe studying Persian, since I'm a native Persian speaker I might be of help to you. And thirdly, a question, how do you study classical Chinese? I'm not sure if you have done a video on that or not, but I'm interested in how you go about studying it I'm not yet that good at picking up new languages and when I want to just pick a new language I start by duolingo But that's not an option for classical, ancient or extinct languages. It's not even an option for modern languages which are not in spotlight, like icelandic for example which I became interested in sometime ago for the scandinavic myths that are still understandable in icelandic. Okay so how do you go about starting to learn something that's not that widespread (currently I'm asking because I've become interested in middle Persian but I don't know how to approach it) So yeah :) Glad I found you, I hope to read your book in Chinese someday, if you are writing it in Mandarin of course.
Thanks a lot for your support! I actually haven’t studied Person yet, and I really want to. But I’m afraid it will take years for me before I can appreciate the beauty of Persian as it is a language with such a long history and rich traditions.

一起加油💪🏼I feel like my Spanish has plateaued, I need to put more work into it too!
作为一个在美国用英文学习工作，同时在学习韩语和西语，金庸小说每一本都读了三遍以上的武侠迷。想说感觉自己不关注博主都说不过去了😂😂😂😂😂
哈哈哈哈哈哈巧了
Happy New Year 2024🎉❤
Thank you! Happy new year to you too!!!
Always appreciate your content Phoenix! 西语我学了两年半，还在pre-B2，你精益求精的精神也激励我啦，继续加油～祝2024顺利！Can’t wait to read your book 🎉🎉
多謝支持！一起加油💪🏼
Good job! Man. You can speak so many kinds of language.
Can't wait to read your book one day in the future bro, awesome to hear about it

2024년에 해야할 일들이 많으시네요! 🎉 저도 요즘 유튜브 중국어 채널들을 보고 있는데, 한국어랑 늘 어딘가 비슷하지만 중국어는 전부 한자로 되어있으니까 겁이 나고 어렵게 느껴지네요..😅
힘내세요, 겁 나지 마시고 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ저도 중국어 동영상을 좀 만들고 한자의 자막을 너어드리겠습니다. 도움이 될 수 있으면 좋겠습니다!

其實我挺好奇學語言這種東西到底跟年齡以及環境有多大的關係。如果一個人不在那個環境待過到底能夠把一個外語學到什麼樣的地步?我自己是自學日文的,雖然現在也在日本定居了,可是我有一個感覺就是難度比較高的語言要學到接近母語的地步是不是其實也是很困難的一件事情? ....日常生活用語跟洽公等級的還是有差別...
能夠辦公使用的流利掌握與母語程度之間還是有一個巨大的鴻溝的，往往實在極為細微的語法、詞彙上體現出來，加上文化的不同。比如一個函館人學九州方言學得再好，終究不是看著當地電視台長大的。
What language(s) will the novel be in?
It’s in Chinese haha like most Wixia novels
Camera girl 应该出镜😆
哈哈哈她比較害羞
请问收入那块你是怎么弄的？你是有业余的收入吗，还是你其实平时也上班
要上班的呀
我以为你消失了。
哈哈哈哈哈还幸存着
