>English
Advanced level, But I'm still learning. I have problem with grammar because I'm a bit an lazy idiot.
>Why
All kind of sources to any every possible topic, you will find in English.
Researches, programming and lot of more everything in English is more expanded.
I cannot imagine life without English tbH. Also I really want to live abroad so English is mandatory.

>Norwegian
I've been learning for almost 2 years mostly duolingo, ankiweb, norwegian news. I also recently bought one physics book mostly for grammar reason.
>Why
I really want to live there, or at least try.

How have you found Norwegian so far? Curious.

I don't exactly understand what are you asking about.

If you ask about my motivation to stay everyday for almost 2years. then:
- I always liked to learn about other cultures, and it's really nice that I can read /norgetraden/ or even ask about something, understand some point of it without google translate,
- If I do something productive in my day I feel better, thus I always do 40xp on duolingo, deck on ankiweb, and 5minutes at drops(app on phone), also reading their news mostly nrk.no and /norgetraden/

I just do my job, I think if someone really hard working about language can accomplish lot of more in less time than me.

How have you found Norwegian so far means he is asking how you generally feel about the whole process of learning the language at the point you are at

>can barely remember 1k different kanji now
That's more than most people lol

My bad, probably should've worded my words in a not-so-slang proper way.

What i was trying to say was - How has your experience been with learning Norwegian in the past 2 years?
But i think you've pretty much answered everything i was curious about. I find the reasons people give for learning another language/culture very interesting,
and i'm curious about how much effort they've put into learning it as well.
You can pretty much understand most Norwegian sentences now yes? That's pretty impressive, some people learn a language for way more than 2 years and still can't get a hold of it. A relative tried learning German for 3 years and a bit and still really didn't know what he was doing. Then again you've done quite a fair share of practice on Duolingo etc. daily which probably helped alot.

Thank you
I feel okay, I am happy with it I can hold a simple conversation and as I mentioned before, I can read norgetraden or their news.
I forgot to mention I set Norwegian in all my devices (computer/programs/phones/facebook/netflix) and I'm using English lector + Norwegian subtitles during watchin tv series/movies.

But I also realize that someone who put more can accomplish higher level in the same time.

My standard of learning was not really time consumption, I would say it 20-30min per day, and everything you can do with your phone, so you are not depends on computere or other books.

>English
I like American and British rock music, so I want to learn it to communicate with them.
>Japanese
We live next to them

>My bad, probably should've worded my words in a not-so-slang proper way.
No do not worry, that's my fault.

>You can pretty much understand most Norwegian sentences now yes?
In written I would say 50-60% and it depends on the content for sure.

Want to play japanese saturn games and be able to watch japanese tv show like gaki no tsukai or game center cx without subtitles. Don't even want to interact with japanese people desu, they scare me

That's pretty neat user, i'm happy you're passionate about learning both Bokmål and English (at the same time too nonetheless). Your hard work eventually pays off, soon English/Norwegian will just become 2nd nature to you and you can read any material without trouble.
English will probably be easier to keep retaining knowledge about since it's such a universal important lingua franca on the internet and in education that you'll probably always atleast use English more than once a day.

If you keep going at the current pace of learning you should be pretty much 100% in both languages within another 2 years max i reckon'
