thank you @kartie for sharing your story. 4 languages, wow, this is great! Even one language might not be easy but 4... May I ask you what were these languages and why you choose to learn them all at the same time? When you tell about getting laughed, do you mean native speakers you tried to speak with or other students in your class?
