A short, curated guide — not an automatic related dump. Figures come from SubMouse's safe-for-work directory when we have them.
r/languagelearning (about 3.4M members, directory rank #305) is for anybody interested in learning other languages. Broader study habits, general “I want to learn X” requests and programming learning each fit better when the goal is not spoken or written language acquisition.
Stay on languagelearning for polyglot tips, resources and language practice. Use GetStudying for study methods across subjects, IWantToLearn for one-off skill requests, and learnprogramming when the language is a programming language.
