Manage episode 446369709 series 3604387
In this week's episode of the Language Vlog Podcast, we talk about some of the challenges in learning Mandarin Chinese and Russian, including the difficulties of switching between the two languages. We discuss daily routines with writing out Chinese character sheets and translating them for better comprehension. There's also an overview of renewing a Type Z visa for China, obtaining a Chinese green card, and the life of an expat in Beijing during the colder months.
Finally, we cover building an effective Anki deck for Russian grammar and techniques shared by viewers during a recent live stream.
