I was blown away to see those ai generated translations of Hitler's speeches. What sounds so aggressive to my ears was really just me not being used to the German language. Those ai translations has him speaking eloquently & rationally.

For some background I'm aware that I'm intelligent but also not exceptionally intelligent. I'm aware that my ego is being activated & I'm trying to contain it. What I've achieved with my expression & beliefs has not been easy but it is also not out of reach for most English speakers. I'm still learning & think you're right in the approach needed. A greater awareness of the words chosen as well as the explicit & implicit symbology behind them. Words are like spells.

Your words have both filled me with joy & have also activated my ego. It's really nice to get some confirmation that my words have impacted someone, somewhere. I sometimes have moments of doubt & fear but I usually hit that Post button anyway & hope that they provide clarity rather than confusion.

I'm also feeling increasingly drawn to learning Spanish.

I appreciate the conversation very much. The zaps, too :).

I also recently achieved a usable level of spanish. Very useful language for me. A lot of literature, music, many many people around the world speak it, and as a bonus, I can largly understand written french, italian, romanian and portuguese.

I would suggest mexican pronunciation - much much clearer than others.

But I am in Europe and the Americas. In Australia asian languages may be a more pressing need.

I don't really feel drawn to learning any Asian languages, except for Thai. Thailand is a special place.

Maybe I need to visit Mexico.

We'll see, I generally get guidance or nudges in certain directions.

Sometimes in the next 3-4 years I expect to buy a sizeable peice of land somewhere. I'm not certain that it will be in Australia yet.
