Dude that's awesome. I have the same relationship with music. When I was little I'd use anything at my disposal to create a melody or beat and thankfully my parents caught on and got me a keyboard. I played by ear for 12 years and picked up guitar too, but eventually I was at a point where skill wise I could join bands, but realized I couldn't communicate with other musicians so I learned the theory and sight reading so I could explain myself to other musicians.
Also that's really cool. Those languages are all pretty different. Two romantic languages sorry, but Hebrew and Korean both use totally separate scripts and have vastly different origins so that probably took quite awhile to learn. Learning the rules for a language is fairly easy but learning a whole new alphabet with it's own set of phonetic and diacritic rules is something else. -
Hi, so...obviously, you know me, but it's been quite awhile, so honestly re-introducing myself may actually be good.
I've always gone by Alek on here, but generally these days I just go by Alex, a lot of people call me Space though, because back in the day when we'd make accounts on here with cool usernames, one of those usernames - SpacePioneer - really, really stuck, so I use it to this day. So there's some butterfly effect for ya haha. I'm 21 now, and I was going to college for awhile until COVID scrambled how all of that works lol. I plan to go back as soon as I feel it won't be super disorienting to do so. I've already got enough confusion haha.
I'm still really into music, and I've always wanted to profusely thank you for introducing me to Starset, because they've become my favorite band and in a lot of ways the foundation from which my entire modern music taste has been built. They're a big part of my life now. And it's crazy but...I've met them enough times, talked to them enough, I'd consider them friends, too. There's a pretty high chance none of that would've been, had you not recommended them to me, so I thank you.
I've got my own music project, 3-4 albums out depending on how you count them. I've been learning to code in Python, I do digital art and 3D art in Blender, I've expanded my writing abilities and love to build fictional worlds, for writing purposes and just for their own sake. I'm fairly into SCP and my love of sci-fi and space is very, very much still alive and roaring haha. I've considered Astrophysics as a career but I'm not sure I've got what it takes to get there, so I'm unsure.
Anyway, that's more or less me, now. Hi ^_^ -
Im Jewish so that's probably the reason I know the Hebrew alphabet but I started to study the whole language and now I'm fluent
Korean alphabet can be learnt in ten minutes, lol no joke -
Hi Alex! That's awesome I'm glad to hear it. Starset makes some pretty dope music. His highschool band, downplay was also really good and had some nice covers as well. It must be a treat to meet them. That's really cool to hear that you're doing all that. Hopefully college goes well despite covid and everything!

Oh that's awesome! I was going to say Hebrew isn't one you hear about all that often. Korean Hangul is definitely easier than a lot of other east Asian scripts. The way they build words in Korean is pretty straightforward which is nice in comparison to languages like Khmer or learning Kanji. I spend nine months learning Kanji. You have to lean 60 new letters in two different ways, then learn over a hundred radicals that are the building blocks for over 4,000 kanji. It totally changed my perspective on written language and severely humbled me. I have no clue how complicated Hebrew is in comparison, but I've heard it's fairly difficult. Are you from the middle east originally or just culturally Jewish? Or is that the wrong way to ask that entirely?
-
I'm culturally Jewish, seeing that I'm from California
Hebrew isn't really that complicated, but picking it up can be difficult. Lol you have to talk fast enough so no one understands, and then Bam! You speak Hebrew -
The reason I learnt Korean was mostly so I do could keep up with my employer at the place I work at
-
Oh okay that would make sense. My family is from Cali originally too but we moved when I was a baby.
That's hilarious lol. I'd love to study Hebrew a bit. It's definitely a very slept on language the linguistics community. I believe a lot of the languages from the fertile crescent are very underrated for how intricate and unique they are. -
Do you already know some Hebrew?
And where in California are you from?
I'm from Sacramento. -
Hey, I'm Tatyana. My main two nicknames are Tat and Dragon.
I'm on the border with a bunch of different personality types. I'm definitely an I _ _ J-T. The other three slots I keep on bordering on. So if you'd like to guess my type, be my guest. In the past I've tested as INTJ-T, ISTJ-T, and ISFJ-T. But even whenever I look at the results of the test, I see that I'm like 1% away from the border or something for each of those three spots that are always changing.
I like to draw, read, and write. I've been playing piano for 9 years and clarinet for 6. I also love learning about history and science.
I'm actually learning Scottish Gaelic right now. I really enjoy it.
