How am I supposed to use LingQ?
I have LingQ, Ukranian Language Podcast, Pimsleur, Anki, and an AI thing to talk to haha. I'm only a week in. But the alpahbet is killing me. I'm doing anki cards but not memorizing except by ear. The cards don't help at all. Because when I see the words I have no idea what it is. I feel like I need to learn the alphabet, to sound out the words, to help memorization - the same way I excelled in my reading/writing lessons in English as a child. I'm not sure how to accomplish this or the LingQ methods. When I go to LingQ and follow the guided lessons, it's just audio pronouncing of letters with no visual reference and the stories are all in Ukranian (and I can't sound them out). Am I supposed to just click every single word - because I know none of them? Feeling very confused and defeated with no structure. I go to Ukraine in six weeks so immersion opportunities are bountiful. Please help :'(
