we all have that one friend that help us that way ,,,,bro u r legendary

Is reading texts then translation some words that i dont know then read the whole text again as it become full comprehensible is considered comprehensible input?

Excellent video. 🙏👏👏👏👏

You are truthful man

People often say that a large amount of Comprehensible Input is essential for language acquisition, but rarely does anyone specify how much time it truly takes to learn a language from scratch using this method. It requires at least 1,500 to 2,000 hours. Can anyone confirm that?

I had 2 drives that encouraged me to learn English, one was cause I wanted to know what the tunes in Nokia 3310 meant and two was so I can insult the english while gaming

As an English teacher, I always tell students to learn the word in context. When I'm learning languages and find myself reading a book and encountering words I don't know, I highlight the phrase or sentence where the word I don't know is, and then in Anki, I just translate the new word. It's like magic :)

Thank you so much this was very helpful.

Not in China😂😂you can’t get by using English unless you live in a big city😂😂

This video accurately explains how I feel about Duolingo. My first language is English and my 2nd is Japanese. To be honest, when I first learned Japanese about 18 years ago, I must had tried every method available at the time (Rosetta Stone, anki, writing notes by hand, JapanesePod101, Pemselur, etc). Its a little hard for me to love Duolingo because of the fact that it works for getting your foot wet into a language but it makes it hard to want to continue if your goal is to fully immerse yourself into the language and go monolingo. Yes, I get it the name of the app is literally Duolingo, but it's not the right tool for people who will eventually want to go all into one language when they have enough vocab to go monolingo. Rosetta Stone ends up having the opposite problem to where it works but it pushes an absolute beginner into going monolingo from the beginning. I liked that approach, but it isn't for everyone, I understand. Just staying I suggest learn basic vocab until you decide if you want to go monolingo or not then choose to stay with Duolingo only if you kind of need that translator mindset for a future job.

I have 2 close friends 🧡 from Most Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin...I hear more nasal with Ya'lls annunciation...Say Nice.

5:55 "2 people learning esperanto is a lot easier than 1 person learning other language" what does he mean? Isn't there something missing?

I have mixed reviews, it can help to a certain extent, but eventually lessons start with a quiz, in which you must guess the answers, that defies logic.... I would expect an explanation of the goals given with examples, leading to several exercises and a quiz at the end .This absurd configuration turned me off. I do speak Spanish which is a very close language to French in terms of grammar and lexicon, so I was able to answer correctly many things using Spanish as a reference, but i wonder how frustrating it is for others who only know English. Guessing should have no place in a learning system, but rather methodical growth through the understanding of what is being learned

Inconvenient truth but it is true albeit inconvenient

Private classes?

I need to learn a foreign language because I want to leave the country I come from

I know some people in Britain pronounce "water" as "wau uh". It's a glottal stop. "Butter" = "boo uh". I guess I (non native speaker) would pronounce those as "wad err", "bud err" etc. owing to American English influence from films and media.

This is really good

Do you have tips on how to TEACH a language

I literally learned more from 1 hour video that i found boring kinda and after 50 minutes decided to stop but i actually sat throught the lesson meaning i actually wanted to learn and i worked hard for it duolingo is the opposite

Mi amegas Esperanton! <3 After acquiring Esperanto in just 6 months, I became so confident in languages ​​that today I am on my sixth language.

1- Portuguese, 2- Esperanto, 3- Spanish, 4- French, 5- Brazilian sign language, 6- English (now) and the 7- Mandarim soon.

I actually learned english like this Praise Pravus for being one of the first english youtubers i eatched there was also a social deception game called town of salem which i watched a lot of

❤❤❤

ohhhhh my gosh. i have been trying my whole life to understand the mechanics of the aveolar trill. as someone who had difficulty pronouncing my english R’s as a child, i wondered if i would ever figure it out. i have watched just about every video on youtube and none have made it click. but with yours - the potter to ‘pada trick - i immediately nailed both R and RR, then gasped and did a little dance. then did it again! I honestly can’t believe it. thank you, thank you thank you!

"Just takes a few times to know the song". Ha ha! Not for me! I have to listen and read it a zillion times before I know it. Additionally, I use VLC Player to slow down the song.

I like the index card idea as a mini-dictionary, thanks for that .

Hola, diculpa ¿español es tu segunda lengua?

Mi estas komencanto .Mi lernas Esperanton 30 tagon sur duolingo kaj libro. Mi loĝas en barto. Kiel vi fartas?

The way you say 'cot' sounds like 'cat' to me. Australians say 'bubbler' all the time. A fountain is a decorative statue with water flowing through it.

For the mother tongue is understandable. But can it work for a second language. That's the debate.

Hi, I am learning Thai right now. Do you have any comprehensive input for this language? Thank you very much for sharing such significant and amazing knowledge about leaning foreign languages 🙏❤️

Thanks to the author of the channel for the interesting content! The book by Yuriy Ivantsiv “ Polyglot Notes. Practical Tips for Learning Foreign Language” had a profound impact on me, opening new horizons of understanding the diversity of languages and cultures. The author's ideas that learning foreign languages not only broadens one's horizons but also contributes to spiritual development became a real revelation for me. I realized that every language is not just a system of signs, but a whole world with its history, traditions and way of life. Thanks to this book, I learned to see language learning as a path to self-discovery and a deeper understanding of others, which in turn enriched my worldview. Inspired by Ivantsiv's approach, I became more conscious of my learning, integrating the author's practical advice into my daily life. This opened up opportunities for me not only to improve my language skills, but also to develop a personal philosophy based on mutual understanding and empathy. Immersing myself in languages has allowed me to see the world from different angles and realize the importance of cultural exchange, which has been the foundation for my spiritual growth. Reading this book and applying its advice has helped me to become a more open and tolerant person who seeks harmony in my relationships with others.

Shit video. You didn’t add anything to the famous Krashen video. And that hand exercise in Chinese doesn’t work.

Many North American Anglophones seem to think that learning a foreign language can be done nonchalantly, but this is a misconception. Learning a language properly requires dedication, effort, and an understanding of complex grammar concepts and structures that may not exist in one’s native language. Using German as an example, it is important to understand why Germans say 'Guten Tag' (Good day) but 'Gute Nacht' (Good night)-noticing the absence of the 'N' in 'Gute Nacht.' This distinction relates to grammatical case and gender in German. If you cannot understand, nor care why this is important, then you should probably not bother to learn German. And that’s just a very basic phrase in German. The entire language is set up like this, and to ignore it would only be at your peril. Other languages that are unrelated to English are even more "foreign," and you cannot simply "learn" them by osmosis, as implied in this video.

How do you pronounce crayon

Tre bona informado en tre bona lingvo. Danke al la Internacia Lingvo ni povas elekti inter multaj eblecoj tre interesaj! Profitu chi tiujn mirindajn eblecojn!

Quotes from The Lion King made figuring out the IPA English easier 😂

I hope things got better, I watch some of your videos time to time, gives me motivation to go forward.

I used to be in detentianal centre in China for 35 days and their almost noone speak any English, for sure I was not allowed to use mobile phone, any other devices, books or anothing else, none came to visit me (even from Consulate) during all this time. at this moment I definatly feel how great I can speak at least beggeners level Mandarin because with no Mandarin there I just literarly gone crazy.

From mi point of view this form to learn languages are the best, i speak native spanish, but i am learning English playing videogames. Buen video!

7:10 you don't have to be a native speaker, that's the brilliance of the IPA (besides the 'ch' thing.) Just say cot twice, (cart) and make it a little more nasal if you really want to give the 'outback' to the Australian accent. Didgeridoo it.

The IPA is wrong, I'm pissed, and I'm gonna let everyone know about it. The 't' - 'sh' is not the 'ch' sound, as much as 'ng' is it's own sound that comes about as a kind of cross between the formations of the 'n' and the 'g' -- 'ch' should have its own symbol. I'd argue it's even more distinct. Edit: Well I just looked it up, and it says 'c' is the symbol in some places, and others say it's tʃ

Northern Indiana we also say “ Loyyer” for lawyer

kudos for you for learning Thai (I'm Thai)

Languages were passed down for thousands of years without being written. I love Pimsleur because it replicates the ancient method that our brains are made for.
