As I mentioned in my previous post about how I plan on writing about my language learning progress for a while, I’m currently learning Spanish.

What I’ve done so far
Initially I tried to learn a bit using the mobile app Fluent Forever because I backed it on kickstarter and got a free subscription for some months. However, the subscription eventually ran out and I was busy with other things.
I chose to not continue learning at the time.
