See title. I've been to quite a few local language meetups and saw lots of people IRL who are learning languages: wondering how are y'all doing too

For myself... learning French due to necessity. I am making progress, just veeery slow. I underestimated how difficult it would be (a lot of vocabs between English/French are similar... but the languages themselves are not!)

japanese children only learn 2000 characters by the time they are out of high school.

there are 3000 daily kanji, and 50,000 total.

but only 1000 kanji make up 90% of kanji you would typically use/see.
