I have only one goal, business proficiency in Korean so once I lose my job in this foreign company where I can do everything in English, I would be able to find a new job here in Korea.
I have three goals. Fully achieving any is unrealistic, but progress in any is already good enough. They are:
- Learn something that helps with old Indo-European languages, like Sanskrit.
- Improve proficiency in languages that I have weak knowledge of, like French.
- Get off my comfort zone and learn something non-IE, like Guarani.
Currently I'm working on #2 with German; I can form simple sentences in the language but I rely too much on dictionaries and declension/conjugation tables.
Maybe not concrete goals with set time frames, but what I'd like to do is...
- become reasonably proficient in Norwegian Sign Language
- get better with Norwegian prepositions, word recollection, and specialized or technical vocabulary
- get a few grades higher in Kanji and perhaps start branching out into Chinese more actively
- improve my listening skills and fluency in Russian
Props for learning a sign language, they're awesome.
