Ola everyone!

Would someone be interested in language exchange? 

Learning something new has numerous benefits for mental health, including:

1. Improved self-esteem and confidence

2. Enhanced cognitive function and memory

3. Reduced stress and anxiety

4. Increased creativity and problem-solving skills

5. Better adaptability and resilience

6. New social connections and opportunities

7. Improved focus and concentration

8. Boosted mood and overall sense of well-being

9. Increased sense of purpose and fulfillment

10. Delayed cognitive decline and reduced risk of dementia


Learning something new can also:


- Provide a healthy distraction from negative thoughts and emotions

- Offer a sense of accomplishment and pride

- Foster a growth mindset and love for learning

- Improve emotional regulation and intelligence

- Enhance overall mental stimulation and engagement

Wait, I thought it was "Hola"? (Written, not pronounced)

Presumably the language you're familiar with is Español, no?

Also, am up for learning Spanish as I don't know it. Best choices would be Mexican or Salvadoran dialects, with Cuban dialect running a close 2nd choice. All I know is American English, but I'm very good at it. I can help you greatly expand your vocabulary. Also if you encounter slang you don't understand, hit me up. Even if I don't know the term(s), I talk to millennials & Gen-Z kids whenever I can, so I can find the answer for you.

I'm learning Russian now and already know a little bit about Japanese and Russian. But I always want to learn anything new. I'm a huge fan of languages!

@Rescie You speak all that & English, too? 😯

...am wondering if it's something about the language. Mandarin, that is. It's like if you're fluent in Mandarin, you're smarter than the average. I bet Cantonese has the same effect.

😄Actually I can only say that I can speak Mandarin and English. As for Russian and Japanese I can only do with simple sentences, that's definitely far from being proficient.


I agree that Mandarin (or Cantonese) is difficult to learn, and born to speak Mandarin save a lot of time learning it. I won't say speaking it makes me any smarter though, every language is fascinating! Plus, Mandarin is not very similar to any other language, so it does not provide me with convenience in learning other languages, which is a bad news for me.😢

 I would love to learn Portuguese 

Can teach 3 Indian languages.😊

A quiery: how are we going to teach & learn from each other? Here? Because as members we can't send messages, not in Cups. We will need separate threads or something; otherwise this one will become very long with lots of subthreads & it'll get confusing.

DawSatie August 21st

Yess I’d love to improve my French!! I can speak Dutch & English with you in return 💗

patientTree4231 August 21st

I’m interested to learn more mandarin. I understand it a little - wo ke yi chiang hua yi ee tian tian. (I’m sure the spelling for this is totally wrong )

I can teach English, Tamil and Malay (Malaysian language) in return.

thank you.
