It's spring now, the first season of the year that features sprouting leaves, blooming flowers and green grass everywhere. Throughout the history, spring was the hottest theme which attracted many poets left a lot of stunning poems. The comfortable temperature and marvelous scenery make us feel like living in a movie. Just take a photo for anything in this season, it can be a great art. Outdoor activity is the first choice for most people on weekends. People walk along a river or lake, enjoy the breeze and sunshine as the willow branches also shake like a beautiful woman's long hair. In China, we call it "Taqing". "Ta" means walk or step on something, "Qing"means green grass which has just sprouted from soil. After spending a long winter time, a new thriving world brings a lot of suprises to us. We are surrounded by the birds' twitter and fragrance of flowers, this is just the best time and just go out to enjoy it!

For me, learning a language is not just about grammar rules or memorising vocabulary. Every time I learn a new language, I learn how people speak, feel, and even think in ways that are unfamiliar to me. What fascinates me most is how language shows the subtle layers of a culture. Sometimes, a word in English might have a single meaning, but in another language, that same idea can be expressed in three or four different ways, each with its own feeling and context. Idioms and proverbs are also very interesting to me — more than clever sayings, they talk about what society values and way of life. For example, in Korean culture, there’s a saying: “If you hold back your words, it’s gold.” Silence is seen as respectful, even wise. But in German culture, there’s a very different view: “Klartext reden” — “Speak in clear text,” which means say exactly what you mean. Directness is seen as a sign of honesty and efficiency. Neither is right or wrong — they’re just different ways of understanding what respect and communication mean. And that’s what I love about language — it opens up all these different lenses through which people live life. And the more I explore a language, the more I realise that there is no single “right” way to live. We're all born into our own cultures, and it’s easy to assume our way is the only way. But through learning a language, I see that world is full of equally valid, meaningful ways of being. Learning a language also brings you closer to that culture. When you understand how someone else expresses emotions, how they speak about things that are important to them, how they joke - you connect with them on a more human level. You stop being an outsider. And in that process, you don’t just learn a language — you grow. You become more open-minded, more curious, and more understanding. It’s like becoming part of the larger human story, not just your own chapter of it :)
