REQUESTS ARE CLOSED ❌ they will open back up again soon i promise!!
if you haven't seen the description already, i started this project to examine this userbase's linguistic diversity, generally speaking. as of now i am the sole moderator of this blog. :-)
you can call me c! my pronouns are she/her and i am under 18. i have a strong interest in linguistics and language learning and have made varying amounts of progress on more than 40+ languages, but am currently focusing on esperanto, spanish, japanese, and russian.
this blog was inspired by blogs such as @haveyouheardthisband , @haveyouseenthismovie-poll , @haveyoureadthisbook-poll , @haveyoueatenthis , and more!
click "keep reading" for more information about language requests and the general rules of this blog.
REGARDING REQUESTS AND ORGANIZATION:
when indicated so, you are very very welcome to submit your own requests for languages you'd like to be seen in a poll. i will accept requests for any widely-recognized language, including conlangs (constructed languages) and other minority and endangered languages. i do my best to research every language i make a poll on, but if somehow i cannot find any written information on a language i have received, i will NOT make a post for it and will do my best to inform you of this.
once i have received enough languages to make polls for, i will create an online spreadsheet that you can access to see what languages have already been done and submitted. right now it doesn't exist. however, when it does, please read and check the spreadsheet for the language you wish to request before actually sending me an ask about it!
languages will be tagged by the most commonly written English version of their name (ex: Spanish will be primarily referred to as Spanish, Japanese as Japanese), but i will also mention names of languages as expressed in their native languages, both in the body of the post and in the tags (ex. Spanish will also be referred to as español, Japanese as 日本語).
REGARDING BLOG RULES & BOUNDARIES:
for the sake of maintaining a large sample size for each poll i post, anyone who encounters this blog is allowed to participate and reblog my posts if they so wish.
if you make the decision to comment on a certain language on any post, PLEASE be respectful of the language and culture you are talking about, as well as any other people that may have contributed their own view/experience with the language. nothing like "[x language] is so ugly-looking/sounding" or "[x language] sucks because etc etc etc" or "people from [x country] are so rude/weird/annoying/etc" or anything similar. such comments will be immediately removed and, in more severe cases, the user will be blocked from interacting with further posts.
also, do not start arguments or discourse about any language. this could also have you end up blocked.
lastly, please be patient with me and my posting schedule. i am currently preparing for community college and i usually have a lot on my plate offline. i promise i will get to your request or respond to any questions you may have eventually!

hi guys! with your help i think i've found a better way to format polls and prevent less confusion. i will be redoing all the current polls i currently have public; once i post its new version, i will private the other one. i appreciate all the help and suggestions i've gotten so far!

will turn my inbox off temporarily and turn off reblogs of the posts i've made so far just so i can sort out everything that i've got so far and also try and figure out what to do next. and thanks everyone for almost 200 followers :-)! i'll get to your requests shortly.
hey everyone :-) thank you for all the requests that you've submitted so far but obviously quite a few people are unhappy with how the poll is structured and i don't think this is something i can shrug off anymore. how does everyone feel about the new poll looking this?
feel free to suggest any changes by the way this is just a potential change! i don't want people to be frustrated about this anymore.
alright how about now.... sort of like a scale from ten to one now which i think makes this a bit clearer .... HUGE thanks to @ herrduhring for suggesting this by the way!

the poll options are really throwning me off because "partially fluent" would imply to me something more like being able to have at least simple conversations, maybe with some struggle and missing words, but still being able to do that, while the next option is the really the "I have heard of this but not learned/studied it" and the "other" is combined with "see results" so none really feel accurate. I've been forcing myself to vote "somewhat" just because I saw your post about how you think knowing even some words counts, but it just feels so wrong 😭
i've been getting quite a few asks like these and i'm sorry that you feel that none of the options listed quite suit you. all i can really encourage you to do is talk about your experiences regardless. nobody's obligated to choose any option that they don't resonate with! i'm not entirely focused on the statistical aspect of this project anyway. it's not imperative that everyone chooses a little box that they think fits them.
i've had to simplify how i go about this poll stuff a LOT over the course of developing this blog, and i felt that just offering a couple of general options for people to choose from could maybe give them an outlet to elaborate on why they chose what they chose and, if applicable, why they DIDN'T choose anything. nothing much beyond that. like i said, i don't wish to gain anything too scientific out of this. i'm mostly interested in the social aspect of this and how different languages have affected different people.
