  • Unless you're interested in linguistics as a field I wouldn't worry about it at all, almost no one who has ever learned a second language knew anything about linguistics

    and honestly the languages I'm competent in were all stuff I learned in school so IDK. I guess my thoughts are that you need a lot of input and that analysing and translating individual sentences out of context (relatively common in textbooks) is not helpful.

    the most important thing is motivation, so find something you're passionate about
