Going to post random stuff here :)

For anyone interested, Gallego is the language of Galicia. It's closer to Portuguese, even though the region is in Spain. (https://www.omniglot.com/writing/galician.htm)

There is a Galician nationalist newspaper published in Gallego: El Correo Gallego. (http://www.elcorreogallego.es)

For anyone interested in learning Spanish, Duolingo is a great primary.

If you are interested in intermediate or learning by immersion, you might want to look into reading some essays by Juan Donoso Cortez; Spanish author, conservative and Catholic political theorist, and diplomat. 

Counter-currents posted an article about him (https://www.counter-currents.com/2010/12/juan-donoso-cortes/)

For learning purposes, here is the complete text of "Essays on Catholicism, Liberalism and Socialism" in Spanish.

@everyone Rosetta Stone is charging $7.49 for a 24 month subscription. Great deal! (https://www.rosettastone.com/lp/sbsr/febpause749/?cid=af-cj-gr-febpause749bof&utm_source=commissionjunction&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_content=febpause&utm_campaign=textlink)

Is Rosetta Stone any good though?

That’s incredible! I’ve only used pimsleur. Have you had success with RS?

Rosetta Stone is fantastic! My dad has the German program and LOVES it!

But can he speak/hear

?

If you're not looking to spend any money, duolingo is also a fantastic program

Is it like pimsleur where you can just listen to a lesson on the way to work?

@Deleted User Yes. He's on an intermediate level currently.

@Olivia M I'm not sure about that. He has it for a desktop. Great question though. 😃

@Deleted User Yes, Duolingo is fantastic.

Duolingo is good.

I enjoyed Duolingo it worked reasonably well for what it was.

my sister is a langage teacher and she's recommended Duolingo

I've also been learning Gaelic simply by memorizing songs and poems, but it doesn't necessarily work well for conversing

I taught myself Dutch using duolingo. Excellent app if you're on a budget.

@Aleis⊕ccidentalis That's so interesting! Why Gaelic?

@SamanthaM Mostly because I'm fascinated by the way the language is used in their folk/trad music. A few years ago I started to immerse myself in Irish & Scottish history, and that's actually what initially caused me to take an interest in ethno-nationalism.

@Aleis⊕ccidentalis This is seriously awesome! It would be great if you could post more stuff like this in our new music channel 😃

I do use Duolingo, but it will absolutely *not* teach you the entire language

Don't get me wrong, I would totally recommend it, but you also need other resources

@Aleis⊕ccidentalis id love to learn Gaelic

@SuperTomPerry -RI It's difficult, I think, because it's not very similar to other Indo-European languages. Personally, I doubt Gaelic will ever be revived as a national language, but it will survive through music, poetry, lore, etc. It certainly is beautiful.

Thomas Jefferson studied Gaelic

He never achieved much proficiency with it, however
