Pessoas vs Gente What's the difference between pessoas and gente? I was told they both mean people. When should I use one over the other? Obrigado!

Canada Aujord'hui, je vais a Canada pour une semaine. Je vais a les villes de Montreal et Quebec. Je vais avec mons amis et ma ecole. Je veux parler avec un Quebecois quand je suis en Canada. Je sais que mon fraincais n'est pas tres bien, mais, je vais essayer. Maintenant, j'ai besoin faire ses valises. Je suis tres excite!

Ich lerne weil... Guten tag! Ich bin Alex, und ich lerne Deutsch. Ich lerne gern Deutsch. Deutsch ist mein Lieblingsprachen. Ich wohne in Philadelphia, aber ich mochte Deutschland besuchen. Ich lerne Detsch weil...na ja...ich mochte Deutsch sprechen. Ich spreche gern Deutsch. Ich lerne mit mein Buch, Language Hacking German. Ich lerne gern mit der Buch! Deutsch ist ein interessant Sprachen. Ich spreche andere Sprachen. Ich spreche gut englisch, spanisch, und esperanto, und ein bisschen portugiesisch und französisch.

J'apprendre parceque... Bonjour! Je m'appelle Alex et j'apprendre le francais. J'apprendre parceque je vais a Canada en avril, et je veux avoir une conversation avec un Quebecois quand je suis la. Aussi, j'adore apprendre les langues nouvelles. Francais est un langue tre tre belle, et France est un pays tre tre belle! Je veux visiter France. Au revoir, mais je vais apprendre plus!

Espanol Yo no se frances tanto como yo se espanol. Espanol es mas facil que el francais, pero no se si estoy escribiendo "French" correctimente y no tengo "accents" en mi teclado. Yo tengo la clase de espanol dos en escuelo, pero estoy cambianado a la clase de espanol tres! Mi maestra quiereme. Ahora, estamos aprendiendo gerundios en espanol. Me gusta espanol, y quiero ser un profesor de espanol cuando yo tengo mas anos (inserto la enie). Me gusta espanol mucho, y yo se que yo hago muchas "mistakes" en la lengua.

Catalan Resources Does anyone know of any good, FREE, online resources for learning Catalan? I have a real interest in the language and I want to start learning it. 

Polish or Russian? I have a love of Slavic languages. I want to learn Russian, Polish, Ukrainian, etc. I also want to learn the languages of my ancestors, and I come from a very Polish and Russian family. Right now I'm learning two languages, Esperanto and Polish, and even if I were to quit Esperanto I still don't want to learn two Slavic languages at once. So, italki, which should I choose? Polish, or Russian? Polish is very difficult, and Russian seems simpler. However I feel like I'd make my great grandmother happy if I visited her and knew Polish, the language of her parents. If you were wondering, I have the same level of desire to learn each of them. 

Que es "NI" What does the word "ni" mean in Spanish? I have never encountered this word before, until I was using my Catalan course. Because I couldn't find any good Catalan for English speakers course anywhere, I use a Catalan for Spanish speakers course because I know enough Spanish to get me through most of the course, or at least until my Catalan catches up with my Spanish. Thanks!

Motivation Issues As you may be able to tell, I am intending to learn many languages at once (though this profile is slightly dated as I have given up Turkish for the time being). With this many languages, I have a very regimented schedule for learning. However, I seem to be losing motivation for certain languages (like Ukrainian or Danish). However, I don't want to give these languages up because I truly do like them. So how do you language learners deal with motivation issues?
