Ponieważ jestem poliglotą lista krajów, gdzie mówią się języki, których się uczę byłaby zbyt długa, a więc skupię się wyłącznie na polskim.
Język polski mówi się głównie w Polsce, gdzie jest oficjalnym językiem. Poza Polską są współnoty Polaków w różnych państw. Po granicy jest region Kresów, gdzie mieszką Polacy. Kresy się znajdują w Ukrainie, Białorusi i Litwie.
Na reszcie świecie wiele Polaków wyemigrują głównie do innych krajów Unii Europejskiej (zwłaszcza Skandynawii), Wielkiej Brytanii i Stanów Zjednoczonych.
Pojechałem do Polski tylko raz, do Krakowa. Wtedy miałem bardzo podstawowy poziom znajomości polskiego. Pamiętam, że spytałem babcie o drogę do jakiegoś miejsca (nie pamiętam już dokąd) i śmiały się w moją twarz. Nie wiem, czy z mojej wymowy, czy z tego, że popełniłem jakiś błąd. Oprócz tych babć miałem wrażenie, że Polacy są bardzo uprzejmym i przytulnym narodem.
Bardzo chciałbym kiedyś mieszkać w Polsce, choć przez krótki czas. Często gdy spotykam się przy okazji z Polakiem, nigdy nie mówię po polsku, bo mam lęk. Choć piszę dobrze po polsku, nie mam nikim, z którym rozmawiać, a więc nie przywykłem się wyrażyć i myśleć po polsku. Jestem pewien, że mieszkać rok albo kilka miesięcy w Polsce może mi z tym pomóc.

I like a confection called みたらしだんご(Mitarashi-Dango).
Speaking so, I didn't know much about the sweet.
According to some web source, the name "みたらし" comes from an area's name.
One skewer has 5 dumplings; this is made to look like 5 bubbles in Mitarashi No Ike pond.
About new-year season, I like visiting Fushimi Inari shrine, and, after that, I often buy some Mitarashi Dango skewers; They are delicious.

Lots of countries from Africa talk French. Those countries were colonized by France between 1881 and 1914 (says Wikipédia), like Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, Ivory Coast, Dahomey (actual Benin), Mauritania, Niger, French Sudan (actual Mali), Senegal, Cameroon, Togo, Chad, Congo, Oubangui-Chari Republic (actual Central African Republic), Madagascar and some others. Canada also has French as an official language with English.
While I am curious about Africa, I don't know if I would go if it was offered. I think too much meaning has been piled on this continent by black peoples. I don't remember exactly when, but a lot of Afro-american as much as French colored people decided to move "back" to Africa, to leave "the toxicity of the white man" behind and to get back to "their people". Unfortunately, African history didn't stop at slavery and "black" is not a common ground when EVERYONE IS. There was no "african people" at this time, only zulus, xhosas, peuls, you see what I mean. They didn't feel much fraternity to foreigners whatever their skin tone was, they had their own conflicts, and the culture shock was horrible. In most instances the "Return to Africa" ended badly. Even now, I'm feeling insecure at the idea to meet black people having their own country, their own language, their own history. In the Caribbeans, we often are reproached to always come back to slavery. But that's the only thing we have to go back to! We have no history beyond the myth of the ship who brang us there, our usages are slave born and our cuture is our masters'. Where I live, French language is both the language of colonization and a tool of power.
I thought a ot about going to Canada. It seems great!

Hoje conversei com a minha filha porque de repente tive um ataque de saudade da minha avó.
Contei a minha filha sobre "Omi" e chorei porque ainda sinto muito a falta dela, embora que eu já fosse adulta quando ela foi embora.
No fim, ela tinha 95 anos.
Sempre fui vê-la nos finais de semana e feriados.
Ela sempre inventou uma programação para mim, feito da vida dela...
Por exemplo ela fazia um bolo comigo de manhã,
depois comíamos batata e depois eu limpava o fogão.
Aí ela disse "Agora precisamos de um descanso" e foi para o sofá, eu para a poltrona.
Eu a ouvi roncar suavemente e o relógio batendo forte.
Em algum momento ela me acordou e disse "Bem, agora temos que trabalhar".
Pegamos a pá e cavamos o jardim - ela me ensinou a virar a pá sem machucar as costas.
Em seguida, colocamos batatas na terra.
Mas em um canto pude semear flores que eu mesmo escolhi.
Minha avó nasceu em 1921 e passou por muitas coisas ruins, por exemplo, a Segunda Guerra Mundial, da qual seu marido nunca mais voltou.
100 anos depois, alguém ainda está chorando por ela.
Pense bem em como você usa o tempo com seus filhos e netos!

Actually, I don't know so much about my brother's symptoms/condition.
I also don't know how to say it in English.
I've heard the word "ちえおくれ" in the past, so I googled how to say it in English.
I found the term "Intellectual disability."
My brother was in a special class because it was tough taking normal class due to his behind of speak, listen, write and read.
Now, he doesn't have any jobs, so I worry.
Kyoto city is supporting him with welfare services.
He lives with our mother in Kyoto.
By the way, my mother said he had saved his allowance for a while and bought Nintendo Switch to play his favorite games.
The game gadget is expensive, so I feel he has kept patience saving money.

Having made their wealth and reputation elsewhere, outside directors are supposed to serve as helpful, yet less biased advisers on a firm's board. But they often "trade up", leaving risker, smaller firms for larger and more stable firms. Firms which want to keep their outside directors through their tough times have to create incentives.

Most of the time, my kids go to school and my wife and I work on weekdays.
Therefore, we can meet early in the morning or after sunset.
After eating dinner, we usually have a conversion about what to do at the school or the office.
If the weather is nice, we take a walk in the park near my house.
On the weekend, we can spend together riding bicycle, going to the library or watching a movie.
Because of COVID-19, it is hard to go shopping malls, but my wife really really like to go there.
I agree that it is different between buying goods online or buying them at the big stores.
I assume that we love the environment that makes by people and goods in the store.
I never get the feeling online stores.

Orten, wo Deutsch die offizielle Sprache ist, sind Deutschland, Österreich, Schweiz, Belgien und Luxemburg. Ich war noch nie zu einem dieser Länder, trotzdem will ich in Zukunft sehr Deutschland und Österreich besuchen. Nicht nur, weil ich vorhabe, dort irgendwo meine Doktorarbeit zu machen, aber auch weil dieser ganze Teil Europas so voller Geschichte ist. Ich habe vor, dort eine große Tour in Zukunft zu machen. Die Alpen sind auch so schön, ich hoffe, dass ich eines Tages dort Skifahren gehen kann.

我覺得學習外語雖然有意思但一點難。有的人上課學習外語,也有人自己學。我那兩個都做過。我上過法語和韓語、韓國手語課。
法語是我第一個外語。在學校我學的七年法語。第一個法語老師是一位奇怪的老人。他開很多玩笑,而且他的教室有奇怪的氣味。但是老師非常可笑,所以我和同學們都覺得法語課最有意思。雖然老師跟別的老師們很不一樣,我們學生都很尊重他。學外語不容易,但因為老師很有意思所以我很想儘量努力當好學生。
第二個法語老師是一位溫暖的女生。因為她聽我們學生的意見,我們很信任她。上課的時候我們做很多好玩的東西。譬如說,我們聽法國音樂,也看法國影集。法語老師兩個人都是很好人。托他們的福我學好的法語。
學法語以後,我開始學韓語。其實韓語是我大學輔系。那時候我的韓語教授是一位女生。她平時很輕鬆,不罵說韓語說得不好的學生。她儘量幫我們學韓語。韓語教授是我最喜歡的大學教授! 托她的福我學好韓噢,也有信心搬到韓國。
去年九月我開始學別的語言——韓國手語。剛開始學的時候我上了手語課,但是我覺得不怎麼好,所以我找到手語家教。因為他是聾,所以我沒辦法努力用手對話。我的家教因為搬到別的城市不再教我,但是我跟他學習的時候非常有意思了。

I went around Shuangqing Bay Park to see if I could buy an apartment this morning. I first went to China Resources, which is located in the south of the park. Apartment prices there range from 8,000 to 12,000 yuan per square meter, but there are few apartments left, and the location of the apartment is not ideal. Afterwards, I went to the estate Group of Lifeng and Sun-city. There are also few apartments left in the Lifeng group, and their prices are even higher than China Resources. Sun-city is a newly opened residential building, and its apartments are in plenty of supply, but the location and the price of their apartments are both not ideal. To sum up, among the three commercial real estates, China Resources is at an ideal price and location, and its environment is very nice. But it only left very fewer apartments with bad locations. So, I am afraid that this time I probably won't buy an ideal apartment.

私は外国語を勉強することが好きです。最近ほとんど一人で勉強しますが、外国語授業を聞いた時もありました。
中学時フランス語を習うことを始めました。あの時先生はとっても面白い年をたくさん取った男の人でした。外国語を勉強するのは難しですが、先生がよかったので楽しく勉強しました。高校時のフランス語先生もいい先生でした。性格が明るいオンあの人で、生徒たちの意見をよく聞いてくれました。中・高校時フランス語を習うことが面白かったです。
大学に行って韓国語を勉強することを始めました。実は韓国語は私の副専攻でした。教授はやさしい女の人で、韓国語がよく話せない学生たちを手伝うことが好きでした。教授のおかげで私は韓国語をよく勉強して韓国に来ることにできました。
去年九月に韓国手話を勉強することを始めました。授業を聞きましたが、あまり好きではなかったです。そして授業が終わる後先生を探して課外をもらいました。先生は聾唖人でしたので私は努力して手で話しました。先生はほかの都市へ引っ越していきましたけど、私はほかの先生を探して継続習いたいです。

Actually, there is only a single country that speaks Czech—the Czech Republic. However, our neighbouring country Slovakia speaks similar language. People from both countries understand each other. The countries used to be united under a common name, the Czechoslovakia, but it was split in 1993 into the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Both countries are located in the Central Europe.
I've been to Slovakia a few times. The last time I was there on a vacation with my girlfriend hiking in the mountains. I'm fond of their cuisine. The typical ingredient is bryndza, which is cheese made from sheep milk.

O português é falado de 240 milhões falantes nativos e a maioria mora no Brasil. Também é falado em Portugal, no Angola, em São Tomé e Príncipe, no Moçambique, no Capo Verde, ... . Nunca visitei um país onde o português é falado. Mas no futuro queria morar algum tempo em Porto em Portugal. Acho que é uma cidade maravilhosa com tanta estória, por exemplo tem a livraria onde J.K. Rowling fui inspirado pelo livro de Harry Potter. Porto é também rico de arquitetura. Além disso queria visitar o Brasil algum dia. Ainda não sei onde eu vou. O Brasil é tão rico de cultura e influência de todo mundo.

Today, I went to donate blood for the second time. This January, I tried to do but I was interrupted because of a vasovagal reaction (VVR). VVR is a physical reaction triggered by stress such as blood sampling, and it causes feeling sick or blood pressure to drop. I think I was too nervous and had fear for blood last time. Therefore, I took measures VVR, and I could give my blood with no problem this time. I'm feeling refreshed because I could be helpful to people and overcome my weakness.

今日の質問は「どんな国には勉強しているの言葉を話せることができる?」と「あそこで行ったことがありますか?それとも行くつもりですか?」
日本だけは日本語で話せることができる国ですようね。でも、漢字を知っていれば少し中国語を読むことができる。
私は日本に行ったことがあります!お友達は日本で日本語を勉強していたので、私は会いに行った一緒に京都で遊びました!スウェーデンより日本のお風呂は小さいです。お風呂に入ったかったには玉にならなければなりませんでした。京都でバスドライバーは運転しながら回すとおしえてくれますよ!それはとても優しいことと思います。日本では皆はとても優しくて地図を読まなければならかった時誰かいつも読んでくれました。助けさせた人たちありがとうございます!
私はもう一回日本に行きたいです。日本に三月間日本語勉強したい。今すれは夢だけど、将来現実になれるかな?

Förutom två års spanska lektioner i gymnasiet har jag inte gått någon språkkurs. Jag använder Duolingo varje dag. Efter att ha avslutat det svenska trädet gick jag med på några Discord-servrar för språkinlärning. Det spanska trädet är för långt så jag jobbar istället med trädet "svenska från spanska". Detta hjälper mig att skapa en direkt koppling mellan spanska och svenska. Och när Duolingo inte ger tillräckligt med förklaringar, försöker jag göra min egen forskning innan jag frågar de infödda i Discord-servrarna. Discord är hur jag upptäckte LangCorrect också. Flera av mina Discord-vänner använder också LangCorrect.

Además de dos años de clases de español en la escuela secundaria, no he tomado ningún curso de idiomas. Uso Duolingo todos los días. Después de terminar el árbol sueco, me uní a algunos servidores de Discord para aprender idiomas. El árbol español es demasiado largo, así que estoy trabajando en el árbol "sueco del español". Esto me está ayudando a crear una conexión directa entre el español y el sueco. Y cuando Duolingo no da suficientes explicaciones, trato de hacer mi propia investigación antes de preguntar a los nativos en los servidores de Discord. Discord es como descubrí LangCorrect también. Varios de mis amigos de Discord también usan LangCorrect.

Tomé clases de español en la escuela secundaria y la universidad. Aprendí más en la clase de la universidad. Las clases en la secundaria no eran buenas y eran aburridas. En la clase de mi universidad mi profesora era muy inteligente y divertida. Ella era de Nueva York, pero estaba casada con un hombre de Argentina. Ella siempre tenía historias relacionadas con nuestras lecciones. Ojalá pudiera volver a tomar la clase.
