Find a partner to practice your language with here!

Find others to practice languages with! Speaking, writing, whatever you like.

Just make a post with the relevant information: languages you'd like to practice, languages you can help with, and the sorts of interaction you're interested in. Or you can just message people with compatible interests.

Guidelines

Please stick to the format "Offering: . Seeking:" / Seeking: . Offering.". This is a rule, so not following it may result in your publication being removed or being banned (due to persistence)

Please select a post flair for your post that best matches the language(s) you're OFFERING. That way it is easy for others to easily find all users who are offering a language.

You MUST offer a language. No seeking without offering. You are welcome to help others teach your language without anything in return.

Examples of posts that are allowed:

Offering: English, Seeking: Vietnamese (and friendship!)

Offering: Mandarin, Seeking: Japanese, Spanish

Offering: Russian, Kazakh, Seeking: Nothing

Examples of posts that are NOT allowed:

Offering: Nothing, Seeking: Hindi

Offering: Friendship, Seeking: French

Offering: Bulgarian, Seeking: Friendship

(The main purpose of this sub is language exchange and language learning! There are other subs for finding general friends.)

The goal here is not specifically to form paired relationships. If you know a language well and just want to speak or write it with others without wanting anything in return, you're more than welcome to offer.

Mostly, just use this as a place to find people to talk/write with in languages you're learning or languages you know well.

In order to improve your chances of finding fitting language partners, remember that you will be communicating with real people. So consider including some information about yourself, such as hobbies, age, gender, as well your timezone/time availability for real time communication.

Offering: English (American) | Seeking: Chinese (Mandarin)

Hello, I am Yona (online name, Cherokee for Bear). I am Black and Native American, and lately I've been learning Chinese for school. If you click on my profile, I have a post about using Rosetta Stone, and it's not the best; however, I know how to introduce myself, colors, numbers, types of clothing, and types of food. I can read some characters, and I know the tones (yes, even the 3rd one—I'm very proud of myself). I like anime and reading (currently reading Battle Royale, Percy Jackson, and Heavens Official Blessing). I am a writer myself. I can go more into interest later if you want to chat. I'd like someone around my age, so 2005-2009. Please reply under this post or message me. I want to go to China one day, so I guess that's my language goal. Hope you have a good day. :)

Offering native Portuguese, seeking native French

Hi everyone!
I’m Brazilian, a native Portuguese speaker who speeks english as well, and I’m currently diving into learning French. I’d love to find someone who speaks French as a native language to practice conversation in a fun and engaging way!

Here’s the idea:

  • Half the time, we’ll chat in French (so I can practice and learn from you).
  • The other half, we’ll chat in Portuguese or maybe English (so you can practice, and I can help you).

This way, we both benefit and get to share a cool cultural exchange! If you’re interested, feel free to comment or send me a message. We can figure out a schedule that works for both of us.

Looking forward to hearing from you! Thanks a lot, and see you soon!

Offering: English, Dutch. Seeking: Taglish/tagalog (no dialects), Japanese.

Hey people, M27 here just looking for someone to casually talk to and learn more of the mentioned languages. I have been teaching people English and Dutch where i work, so i would say I'm experienced in conveying nuances for both these languages for people that already have some basic understanding of them.

Don't care about age or gender. Just send me a Dm.

Cheers!

Offering: English | Seeking: German

Currently at German B2/C1 level, and would like to majorly improve speaking. I would like to speak confidently about any topic as I still fumble and am quite anxious, while speaking.

A common interest should not be an issue. Hopefully there´s always something we could learn. I´m also looking forward to an exchange of cultures/ideas alongside language.

About me: 29m, living/studying in Germany since more than a year.

So, I'd be glad to chat about everything 😀
