I'm Tanya and the only thing I like more than learning languages is probably talking about learning languages (well, that and hoarding language books). My native language is Russian and I'm currently in different stages of learning English, Spanish, Polish, Italian, Korean, Greek, and Japanese. This video is sponsored by LingQ.
