This was super helpful to me! I’m a very casual language learner and dont have much access to in-person stuff in general. I just recently broke my Japanese streak, and I’m deciding if I wanna keep with Japanese or learn Spanish given current events here in the US
No idea if I’ll find a way to implement what you’ve explained but its my only exposure to the idea of cross talk or this perspective on language learning
I mean, if you want to learn spanish, try dreaming spanish.
For Japanese - iirc, Tandem has a paid tier where it will show you people who are nearby you? So maybe try finding some Japanese speakers near you, and pitch crosstalk to them. Maybe one or two will become consistent language learning partners, and you’ll make friends in addition to learning Japanese.
