If yes, how's it going? What do you like about it? What don't you like? What challenges are you encountering? How are you approaching it?

I ask because my partner and i both decided last year we would start doing a little language learning in our spare time, and it's been quite nice to have that "back to school" feeling again after so many years.

Yes, I'm learning Arabic (MSA)! I'm Arab but never picked up the language before. The basics are pretty straightforward but we're (my tutor and I) getting to some of the more technical grammar (e.g. verb forms and how they modify meaning, idafah) and that's much more difficult. Hopefully I can reach a level of fluency where I can communicate with my extended family solely in Arabic (even if I'll sound like a news reporter) as well as travel and read 1001 nights.
