Thank you Anna for normalizing having language goals in your native language. I grew up speaking Chinese with my family but ever since living alone I find my Chinese getting rusty and I am willing to change that. Luckily I'm visiting my family soon and I will get more speaking practice.

[@Yvaia]

Re: Harry Potter as the first language book, it’s totally true, you’re not crazy! But I also feel like it rings so true with what you said about children’s book and their vocab. I’ve picked up the first HP book in Spanish and I’m struggling to read it because every other word is vocab like “sparkling and mischievous eyes”, “hands as big as bin lids”, “grizzly and tangled beard”, and I’m like 🥲🥲🥲

[@ifihadfriends437]

Fiction is the best for learning adjectives

[@mattm7050]

I started off with actual child books like the ones with pictures and 2-3 sentences a page LOL after I read some without having trouble I moved up to Percy Jackson LOL and it was sooooo much easier !!

[@korbut.anastasia]

As an Ukrainian, I want to say that Russian and Ukrainian languages are COMPLETELY different. I think more you learn it, more you’ll notice.

[@user-cc3ot4pw5k]

Totally agree

[@ritassoul3516]

Хм, вы имеете грамматику или лексику тоже? У вас немного другие буквы, слова тоже. Но когда со мной разговорила прабабушка на суржике я ее прекрасно понимала. Мне было бы интересно знать ваше мнение с украинской стороны, что именно отличается и какие детали, это интересно

[@korbut.anastasia]

@@ritassoul3516 с том-то и проблема, что на суржике. Я тоже раньше думала, что языки очень похожи, что в украинском очень много от русского. А оказалось это был только суржик. Понятное дело есть много похожих/одинаковых слов, но как показала практика русские не понимают чисто украинский, не суржик

[@SassyStudies]

Your Russian and Spanish videos will be awesome for your viewers who are learning those languages. I’m still using your language learning Notion template and highly recommend it to anyone reading this planning out their language study this year! Choosing what languages to focus on when there are so many we want to learn is definitely the hardest thing…!

Literally the notion template has saved my life!! And it encourages me to study knowing I get to put more minutes in my daily logs.

Anna: you might be like "why is this language (Russian) here? you can't study a native language." But YES, you can! Me: finally somebody said it! you go girl Я тоже носитель русского языка и большую часть жизни говорю на нем, живу в России, сдала ЕГЭ по русскому (final exam in school) на высокий балл, но есть одно большое "но". Я билингв и последние года четыре 70-80% времени я говорю и потребляю контент на английском, тогда как на русском я говорю только с семьей и друзьями. Поэтому мне все сложнее выражать какие-то мысли на уровне носителя, часто звучу не как носитель, даже мемы и смешные фразы вставляю на английском. На занятиях (я препод англ) лезу в переводчик за русскими словами, когда меня спрашивают их перевод. Но при этом все как ты сказала: я люблю родной язык и мне важно его сохранить в себе. Так что в новом году обязательно начну им заниматься! 💪

[@sunnatradjapov1005]

Можно с вами связывать?

[@Atchikaru]

I feel you about the Russian so much! I'm Russian-Ukrainian too but I grew up in Finland, so I answer my mum in Finnish and I understand Russian on a (nearly) native level, but I struggle with vocabulary and understanding why stuff happens (like I know the grammar but only by "just knowing", if that makes sense xD) Я может тоже начну маме деньги платить если буду отвечать на финском хаха идея вообще супер

I have so much going on in 2023 but I want to challenge myself, I want to see how much I can push myself. Your a big inspiration for this, so thank you for that

[@ariana.solodovnik]

I also want to do better in Russian since it's also my first language and to perfect it in Ukrainian because I'm also half Ukrainian and don't know how to speak it. I want to reconnect with the Russian side and Ukrainian sides of my family. I was never taught how to read and write, so this gave me motivation !!! Hope you will achieve these goals !!!

[@corvusway]

when you said that living in a another country to naturally pick up a language depends on the experiences you have, as an introvert i totally agree with that '-' good luck with your languages goals! i'm starting french this year and this is the first time we're learning the same language together x

I would love to meet you in Paris for a langage exchange !! Russian was also my first langage but growing up in France made me speak Russian way less and I actually relate to you soooo much because I respond in French to my mom even though she speaks Russian to me hahaha Im really glad I found your channel ! 💕

[@bella-hi2ii]

you’re inspiring me so much. my language goals are brushing up on my Albanian and Spanish. once I master these, i’ll move onto a language that I don’t know at all. Also it’s the opposite with me and my mom. I try to speak Albanian with her but she speaks English because shes so used to it😂 Thats why I lost Albanian in the first place because we both spoke English to each other

Love this video, I have a lot of language goals myself, thank you for making these videos 🙏💖

[@captainsalaska]

can i suggest something? i hope i'm not crossing a line, but when you said you want to create six from scratch videos in spanish, russian or french, maybe you can talk about the book you read in that language. for example, you said you bought wimpy kid book in french and maybe you can talk about that wimpy kid book in french. it's just a suggestion lol but i loved your language goals, seriously. wish i could be this focused on the languages i want to learn lmao

Being able to read a whole book in Italian is definitely a great achievement.

[@fisicogamer1902]

Wow anna! the struggle to not add new languages to learn is real lol. I feel you. I've gotten a lot better at controlling it, thankfully, but it's still there. Also why harry potter is because it is an easy reading that becomes complex with time. It's not about the words per se , it's about how to manage hard grammar concepts and a complex context system in order to obtain meaning. Mind you, I've never used it, I am just showing you what other people told me.

im very glad i found your page and all these comments. ppl around me don’t have much drive to learn other languages or they speak one other language, but everyone thinks i’m very dumb for attempting to continue Mandarin, still dabble in Italian, and recently adding spanish. i haven’t even told anyone i’m starting Portugués. im glad i am stumbling upon youtubers, redditors, etc who already know its possible to learn multiple languages and do well at it! i love your videos anna, they’re so helpful

[@giovannesouza6870]

As a brazilian, I think portuguese is quite similar with italian, but far from french 😂 it’s kind hard to pronounce words in french. Words in russian looks easier for some reason, specially because of the R sounds for me

[@bhutchin1996]

When I started learning Brazilian Portuguese, I noticed a lot of French loan words in your language: la grève > a greve, le soutien > o sutiã, le maillot > o maiô, le métro > o metrô, la boite > a boate, e outras palavras que não vêm à mente por enquanto... When learning French, one needs a lot of native audio, whether through a course like Assimil or content on KZbin or Netflix. I started out learning French with a phrasebook with only about an hour of content on audio cassette, fita-cassete - I don't know if you remember those... - and I've been self-correcting my pronunciation ever since.

The Harry Potter thing is definitely real lol. I think it’s because everyone knows the story so well. There’s definitely some “magic” words that maybe aren’t super useful, but really the vast majority of the text in the book is “normal” vocabulary lol.

[@bhutchin1996]

I think one reason why the Harry Potter translations are popular is because they were *professionally* translated. The author didn't decide to run everything through Google Translate and call it a day. I see this being done a lot nowadays, unfortunately. :-( It's a good resource, however, for pasting foreign-language content and hearing how Google or Bing "speaks" it. In some languages they do a good job.
