RE: My introduction to the Steemit community
I will be sure to read your post about dreams! I wouldn't classify dreams as one of my main interests, but they are definitely something I would like to explore more, and understand how to get the most out of them. I spend 7+ hours a night asleep, so it would be great to make the dreaming portion of them productive.
I am particularly interested in Slavic languages, currently I am learning Ukrainian, though I hope to learn other Slavic languages to a lesser extent, and see how they compare, the similarities and differences. I would ideally like to learn German or Dutch and pick up on where school left off on Spanish. I think learning languages with some degree of mutual intelligibility with other languages is best, that way I could communicate with people who know a mutually intelligible language to some extent.
Yes @meowgan, I think your thought about our dreaming lifetime hits the core of the issue: so many hours of our lives are spent in a world and a state that we don't understand at all. And that's what brought me to the reflection: how is it possible that we don't give importance to something which is so present and needed at every day of our lives? If it's part of the human life (and such a relevant part), we should care more about it.
That's good, my friend. Learning a family of languages certainly will boost your linguistic abilities. I will soon post some guides about the creation of memory palaces. I hope that will be useful for you in your learning of languages.
