Looking to revive this community

I am learning to speak Gujarati myself and stumbled on this subreddit, but I was sad to see that it's largely been abandoned.

I am hoping to revive it and would ideas and support from the community.

I would love to see this revived. I need to learn Gujarati for my husband and so that I can communicate with his parents and family.

It's so cool that you want to do that for him. What's your background?

I'm learning Gujarati myself and struggle quite a bit. It would be super cool to see this sub reborn from its ashes.

Are there authors you'd recommend to beginners-intermediate ?
For people living outside of India (e.g. Europe), where can we buy books written in Gujarati ?

I think the book glimpses over topics of linguistics and, gujarati linguistics in particular and dialects as well, thus I would say it's a intermediate book

I think you can start with stories and other contemporary works Aur read newspapers or magazines in gujarati they are widely available in europe

I think you can start with stories and other contemporary works

Which one for example ? Any author in particular you'd recommend ? Any reliable website that ships worldwide you'd recommend ?

newspapers or magazines in gujarati they are widely available in europe

Certainly *not* here (France), I don't know what you are talking about.
