Who pursues foreign languages here? (lemmy.autism.place)

As a moderator, I contributed to this instance and tried to discuss languages (Languages on Autism Place) or playing Minecraft (Minecraft on Autism Place) but sometimes I get torn between pursuing languages (and their corresponding cultures, countries, and being able to talk to them) or focusing on my regular daily life speaking English and practicing foreign languages as a second pastime.

I know some speak foreign languages here, but does anyone else practice foreign languages besides who I know?

Languages and linguistics are literally my life long special interest.

Agreed, I just wonder where I’ll get to practice a foreign language in my local community.

I live in the countryside of a small town, though I’ve interacted with Hispanic people who speak Spanish but the whole state speaks English.

I don’t know how multilingual my hometown is.
