After the hiccup I ended up getting back on the horse somewhat. Pumping a whole hour into Japanese, Spanish and Irish, which was more than what I was doing before. 30 mins of that is immersion/listening practise though so it's less intense than the more direct study is like. I can't understand anything in Irish besides a few words, but I'm hoping the early immersion is helping train my ear more for the different sounding words/dialects.
Using TG4 for my Irish immersion, and sadly it's not available outside Ireland like I thought it'd be. Good resource though, for sure.
Really happy to hear that you've been able jump back on. And don't downplay the immersion exercises! I am often said to pronounce words pretty well in German and honestly I think it's due to me listening to it so much even when I didn't understand much of it :)
