Another Ukrainian journal and little phrase for the day. Вироблення нових звичок, building new habits.
I want to make a difference in the way I build myself up this year. I want to be conversationally fluent by the end of the year, just one of my goals, but in order to do ANY of my goals I have to work on my neural plasticity and get better at listening, retention and study.
I was able to meet with my Ukrainian tutor this last Sunday and go over some of the phrases I've been learning, and he helped me parse what was a proper translation versus a Google translation, which works for specific words but not phrases as a whole and leaves out the context these phrases have in English versus Ukrainian.
I'll be posting a lot more on here various projects and efforts to learn new stuff, like 3d modeling and video editing. Hopefully some of them will be TikToks when I'm good enough at recording my 3d modeling sessions and voiceover work.
