So after returning from Budapest, i decided to switch to learning Polish, since i am supposed to be going there over Easter (looking less and less likely now, but that's a story for the coronavirus thread). Polish language pros: 1) They don't use 'a' or 'the', so despite have three gender, you don't have to remember which version of 'a' or 'the' to use each time 2) The Duolingo course is back to normal after the clusterfuck of the Hungarian one - back to learning about boys having dogs, men eating bread, and ducks being large. Polish language cons: 1) You know how in English we say 'he', 'his ' or 'him' depending on context? Apparently in Polish they change every fucking noun like this! So you change the word for dog depending on if you are talking about the dog directly, or if the dog has ownership of something etc... 2) Pronunciation - so many z's! Also, i hit my 365 day learning streak, which is nice.
