Truly there are few things better in this world than seafood + noodles + sauce

Fascinating. The origins of the method are a real rabbit hole too, I kinda miss the era where stuff like this would crop up on forums.

For Spanish I‘ve been on a hour-a-day schedule combining reading a novel on lingq, duolingo (which is a handy review tool if nothing else), and verb form flash cards. I do plenty of extra stuff outside of that, watching shows and podcasts in Spanish, but the 10 hour a day timeframe advocated by the original L-R sources is definitely intense.

Anyway, thanks for the write up! Some great sources here for sure.

I had never heard of the L-R method before, it's kind of astonishing that it has worked for folks. I suppose LingQ/LWT combines some of these approaches together


it's hard to imagine doing 10 hours of LingQ reading though.

Tremendous.

Unfortunately I think it'd be complicated as far as moderation goes, because posts would have to be moderated across instances by different mods.

Not sure if rules against self promo prohibit vids of us noodling or not, but I've been working in "New Standard Tuning" (all fifths and then a high minor third) lately and it has been a fun experience...apart from having to memorize 4 note per string scales, there are some real finger twisters at the low end of the neck for sure. Anyone else tried this out?
