guardian_learning咱们在这里一起练习了一百天了吧！厉不厉害？
One hundred days in a row may not be a lot in the grand scheme of language learning, but I think it's a pretty good start here. I am so grateful to the people who have been commenting here, often with immensely helpful knowledge and advice, as well as with thought-provoking questions, interesting quotations, and so on. I also appreciate very much the people who have been following along quietly, as the subscription list graaaadually increases! 万分谢谢大家。❤️
In administrative matters, let me know via comment here or DM if there's anything you would like to be different--tags? content? pinyin? should I keep aiming for daily posts or would once or twice a week be easier to deal with? And so on. I still haven't gotten to putting together a masterlist of useful links etc., as discussed previously, but it's on my list. As it were.
I'm also kind of curious to hear about people's goals and achievements with regard to Chinese, on large or small scales, everything from "hey, I understood this one line without looking at the subtitles! that felt really good!" to "passed X test" or "read Y novel cover to cover" and so on and so forth. My Chinese goals seem to be divided by likelihood, as in a) maybe realistic if I keep studying long enough: able to understand 80-90% of what I read and to communicate what I need to say in not necessarily correct but understandable writing; b) would probably need immersion to happen: same respectively with listening and speaking; c) not likely, period: able to translate professionally from (written) Chinese to English. As for achievements, this comm feels like one! The others are small and haphazard and things like "I understood That Scene from 叛逆者 ep. 20 without needing an English gloss" or "I had a whole text conversation with a-Pei in Chinese without needing to resort to English" and so on.
It's not 第七天, but in the spirit of the joys of amateurism, have Zhu Yilong accompanying himself on a Teresa Teng song: he has obviously practiced very hard and is feeling proud of himself for getting it mostly right.
咱们继续一边努力努力学习一边好玩吧！

when a Cdrama I want to watch or Cnovel I want to read isn't fully translated into English, I want to be able to finish it, anyway.
Excellent plan. 加油吧！
Edited, forgot to say that your quotations are always helpful and interesting (except for the way they make me want to rewatch The Rebel etc. etc. ;) ), many thanks!
