Challenge 13 is aptly named lol

So, I just wrapped up Level 1 - Challenge 13, and let me tell you, it was like being ambushed by Mike Tyson when you was expecting Jedward! The jump in difficulty was like going from a leisurely stroll to a bungee jump—totally unexpected and a little terrifying.

Despite everyone saying, “Just keep swimming!” like some motivational fish, I couldn’t dive into Challenge 14 without feeling like I’d nailed down the new words, phrases, and concepts from Challenge 13. So, I decided to hit the rewind button.

I opened up WordPad (yes, I’m living dangerously!) and started jotting down all the English sentences we’re supposed to translate 80% of the time. I rolled up my sleeves and dove into translating and understanding them. And you know what? I’m so glad I did! My understanding of Welsh sentence structure has improved a ton.

From the forums, it’s clear that Challenge 13 is a sneaky little gremlin that trips up a lot of folks, so I just wanted to share my own personal little solution. I know my approach might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but hey, if it helps even a few of you keep your hair intact, then I call that a win!
