 So... I actually started learning Hawaiian like a week ago. I decided to take a pause on my Swedish learning since nobody was really correcting my sentences on an app I use for lang learning and I wasn't really sure where to continue apart from gaining more vocab. There is still vocab I think I could know like more things around the house and stores that I visit and other loose ends but I'm kinda bleh about it at the moment.

Because I love to lang learn as a hobby, I decided to pick up Hawaiian, which I've had curiosities about from some years ago which I found reigniting after I watched a video by langfocus about it. I suppose it might seem silly for me to learn Hawaiian when I don't know much about the islands or have any intentions (or ability) to go there anytime soon haha. But learning the language in itself will expose me to some of their culture.

My Japanese learning will pick up again next month, which I intend to focus on exclusively but I might continue Hawaiian because I've been really enjoying it. We'll see how it goes.
