      More like start learning a second language and give up after a week.

      This may be a stereotype, but TikTok specifically caters to people with short attention spans.

        Yeah learning to speak Mandarin is one thing but learning to read it feels fucking impossible if you don’t start young.

        Gateway learning.

        I learned Spanish to write love letters in 2nd grade.

        And now 30 years later, I know like a dozen languages at a basic level, but still good enough to be sent all over the world on business trips for free.
