问HN：有没有其他人通过阅读技术帖子（比如HN）来学习英语的？
嗨，HN，
我很好奇是否还有其他人有类似的学习英语的经历。
我来自乌克兰，大约五年前开始阅读Hacker News。起初，我几乎什么都听不懂。我没有使用翻译工具——部分是因为我懒，部分是因为我想看看自己能从上下文中理解多少。
所以我继续阅读。我会在不同的帖子和评论中看到相同的单词，渐渐地，我开始理解它们的意思。句子结构变得更加清晰，我开始“感受”这门语言。最终，我完全不再害怕用英语阅读。
我并不是通过老师或课程学习的——而是通过互联网，主要是在这里。
现在我写帖子，分享我的项目，甚至和其他开发者用英语聊天——有时这仍然感觉不真实。
你们中有没有人以类似的方式学习英语（或其他语言）——仅仅通过沉浸式学习，而没有正式的学习？
另外：谢谢你，HN。你教会我的不仅仅是技术。

Hi HN,
I'm curious if anyone else had a similar journey learning English.<p>I'm from Ukraine and started reading Hacker News about five years ago. At first, I understood almost nothing. I didn’t use a translator — partly because I was lazy, and partly because I wanted to see how much I could figure out just from context.<p>So I kept reading. I would see the same words appear in different posts and comments, and slowly, I began to understand their meaning. Sentence structures became clearer, and I started to “feel” the language. Eventually, I stopped being afraid of reading in English altogether.<p>I didn’t learn from a teacher or a course — just from the internet, and mostly from here.<p>Now I write posts, share my projects, and even chat with other devs here — all in English. It still feels surreal sometimes.<p>Have any of you learned English (or another language) in a similar way — just by immersion, without formal study?<p>Also: thank you, HN. You taught me more than just tech.
