In a lot of countries, it's not uncommon to speak multiple languages. Maybe your dear ol' meemaw never bothered to learn their government's language or perhaps you live near the border of some other country, so you know a couple of different languages by default. But here in America, isolated on all sides from any semblance of culture, we've only got English. Floundering in this wasteland of casserole dishes, endless sitcom laugh tracks, and an imaginary expectation of being internationally accommodated, English speakers can go their whole lives without ever having to learn another language. 

But alas, there are those of us brave enough to break the mold and tackle foreign grammar rules. Even with the Duolingo owl haunting our dreams, we press on and push through the boundaries of learning English first, forcing ourselves to learn another, more exotic language.

  • Whether driven by our desire to travel or because we just want to watch our favorite animes without subtitles, learning a second language is super hard and required daily diligence. Don't worry, my fellow DuoLinguists, you've set your New Year's Resolutions to learn that new dialect by the end of the year and by gosh, you're gonna give it your best shot! So even while the Duolingo owl haunts your cell phone and you start to dream in French, take a load off and enjoy this collection of language learner memes that'll conjugate your socks off!
