MISTAKES We All Make LEARNING LANGUAGES

[@CrusaderKnight25]

So basically, to learn a language, you must be persistent, have realistic goals, start with simple general terminology, make your learning material easy to understand and be serious about it.

[@TurkishKatil]

+Josh Velasquez just use duolingo

[@judeekennedy6177]

Berkay Ertuğrul I love duolingo I'm learning bean on it at the moment

[@russellspeed1693]

Have you been spying on me? You are better than the NSA.

[@fusionkamehameha]

Immer wieder lustig deine Videos. Mittlerweile ein Suchtfaktor und die beste Ablenkung auch bei schlechter Laune. :) Ich hatte es auch immer schwer am Anfang mit Englisch, doch jetzt fließen die Wörter nur aus meinen Gedanken und es wird von Jahr zu Jahr mehr + deiner Unterstützung. You are awesome!

[@Ekvitarius]

That must must have been awkward pretending to learn your native language.

[@directioner3153]

😂😂😂 I love this comment!!

[@johnedreslin]

Very cute. Loved it when she started taking coffee right out of the jar.

[@annakosarova882]

Most of it isn't just about languages. I'm currently studying for my graduation exam and I recognised many of the things you've mentioned. And your videos always cheer me up (just thought you might be happy to know that)

[@ivanmomotiuk1709]

Ich verstehe gar nicht, warum irgendwelche Menschen in den Kommentaren unter deine Videos was Negatives schreiben. Ich finde, du bist positiv und ehrlich, und die Aussprache klingt ja nett. Viel Erfolg mit was du machst! Wünsche dir weitere Entwicklung des Channels :) (Und Entschuldigung, wenn ich was falsch gesagt hab' lol)

[@huntsman429]

Ich finde es echt erstaunlich. ich schreibe gerade eine Gedichts Analyse und wollte das metrum rausfinden. hab bei KZbin eingegeben gedichte metrum. ein Video gefunden von vor 2 jahren. (echt cooles Video:)) bin auf den kanal und das letzte video hat mich hierhin gebracht. echt erstaunlich das du immernoch weitermachst. ist mal was neues. Danke und Viel Erfolg und Glück ^^

[@Blaqjaqshellaq]

I'm learning Portuguese and one mistake I keep making is saying "la" instead of "a" for the female "the." (It's "la" in French and Italian and Spanish.)

[@Blaqjaqshellaq]

I've been learning on Duolingo, which works pretty well for me. Another mistake I keep making is confusing "isto" (this) with "isso" (that)!

[@andresiqueira7190]

@@Blaqjaqshellaq hi James, as a Brazilian Portuguese native, at least here inn Rio we don't make the difference between them, we just say 'isso' for both, even if that's grammatically incorrect

[@feebdaed]

i've lost it at "cat fart compilation.. that's gonna be awesome"

[@marbe166]

It's "make mistakes"/"made mistakes", not "do mistakes"/"done mistakes". But you probably know this, since you wrote it correctly in the video description :). Keep up the good work with these videos.

[@VarpunenTV]

Sehr schön veranschaulicht, welche fehler man machen kann. Als Anregung: Das nächste Mal die Musik in den gesprochenen Passagen ein wenig leiser drehen, dann versteht man die besser :)

[@gomongio]

Trixi, you could create a video on Lautmalereien. That'd be interesting to know too... plus I don't really know where to look for them or how.

[@ShutterAuthority]

haha 3:13 perfect imitation of a lot of those annoying German language students who say isch gehe, du gehscht, nischt and all sorts of 'ischts'

[@johanna-7817]

kein mensch sagt "isch gehe nischt" wenn dann "ich geh ned"

[@ShutterAuthority]

Anna-Marie Schmidt haha no! I've heard foreigner students speak like that!

[@johanna-7817]

Shutter Authority okay are u german or english?

[@ShutterAuthority]

Anna-Marie Schmidt Neither. I'm Indian. I lived in Germany for a while and can speak German a little bit. Where are you from in Germany?

[@johanna-7817]

Shutter Authority oh thats interesting. Im from Baden Württemberg :) it s in the south. :)

Love your vids. Rushed to patreon asap ^^

[@DontTrustTheRabbit]

+Matthew M I saw it! Thank you a lot lot lot lot LOT! :* I wrote you a message there.

[@aviatorskool]

you just played out my daily routine there....great video

[@israelcanova]

I don't think fooling around is a mistake, in fact, having fun helps you learn better... and fooling around helps me memorize "serious" words too and master grammar structures. Kisses from Brazil!

[@hu6schrau6aerr68]

du macht echt gute videos freue mich jedesmal aufs neue

[@Quetzalcoatlv3]

1:11 Look at the phone! You cheater :D 2:22 If you had use normal coffee that wouldn't happen ;) 3:33 Funny :p

[@TheWhiteKun]

not just learning a language but learning any subject you can find. (Tomorrow I have a statistics exam and I Have not started to study yet):(

[@ryuuchan8516]

No procrastination here. If I want to do something, I usually do that. Also, I'm an early bird. Get up at like 5-6 am without an alarm clock. Though I sometimes get a little lost listening to music or watch videos, too. But I also don't do the regular vocab or grammar learning, so I don't get frustrated. Overambitious plans? Nah. But I practise everyday. It is fun after all. You make learning look exhausting and not fun at all. Funny translations? Nope. I have no learning sheets, but if I had, I had probably do the same that you did. Learning too complicated things? Depends on how you learn it. All I say is Kanji (Chinese characters in Japanese writing) I don't do do too much either. I'm getting the feeling it's about your way of learning that makes all of these problems.

[@rubinbarbi19]

Alle von dir aufgezählten Fehler kann man ganz allgemein aufs Lernen übertragen. Ist zumindest bei mir häufig so ^^

[@summerdaymorning]

hab ich mir auch gedacht

[@KatzeDerNacht22]

Hahaha learning too much and funniest translation, guilty. I love this channel, my german girlfriend showed it to me, ( I've been learning german for a while now) this is very useful it's also hilarious that helps a lot. Luckily she speaks English and knows some Spanish ( I'm mexican )

[@francescoricci7653]

You have perfectly described myself when I try to learn German! Your video was very funny 😂

[@WEISICHNICHT1234567]

It's clear that you put much effort into this video so thumbs up 😊

[@lillianhittig809]

Sometimes (most times) translations online are not the most accurate so how do you learn if the words aren't correct? I am trying to learn German and I know some of the words I have translated aren't correct so where do you go to find a reliable place to learn words?

[@jaidestrykr7135]

Also... using Google Translate...

[@misreb1]

oh yes...

[@mtlracing1567]

+misreb1 don't touch that poison

[@InsertTruthHere]

1:53 should be => twice as much (and, again, the activity is called studying)

[@eisenjeisen6262]

I think my age is against me, you make me laugh so much, and my heart is in Switzerland!!!

[@georger4710]

hi Trixie trying to learn Polish what is one of the difficult managers the word

[@TheVerkor]

Yeah, It´s absolutely me trying to learn German. I am learning since this morning and I forgot everything....:D you have so complicated grammar and vocabulary, well in my point of view...

[@maksim5078]

Yes, I make all these mistakes. Having said that, I know only one method which really works (and works quickly): this "method" consist on living among people who speak the Language that I want to learn. When you have no way to satisfy your needs but referring to them in the foreign Language, then you are "forced" to learn it... Probably one of the first word that the immigrants learn, as they are in Germany (for example), is "Geld"... When I was in London, as an Italian worker, I remember an Italian friend of mine that, although his english was very bad, could *well understand* the phrase: "if you don't work, you don't get money"... :-)

[@DeutschDirekt]

Small point of grammar from 'Grammar Nazi' to another. In English, you don't 'do' mistakes, you 'make' mistakes. You're welcome! (Subtle sarcasm just for you) p.s. You actually made the same 'mistake' in your video about being a Grammar Nazi! (2:59, approximately!)

[@maboroshi1986]

i find this happens with the languages i've seen, make and do are the same word. "faire" in french doesn't differentiate which is fun with my french friends who constantly mix them up and irish is similar, "Déan" can mean both make and do which occasionally drops into hiberno-english. another one i often see in my french friends is the mixing up of "this" and "that", french not really making the distinction between ce and ca the way english does with this and that. is that also the same in german? i often see german speakers only say "this".

[@Paola-xx6lo]

meine Geschirrspülmaschine hat einen Platten😂😂

[@robinwoods8814]

Als ich Deutsch lernen war, habe ich mich wie das so oft gefuehlt. Und jetzt, seit ich in Japan wohne, lerne ich Japanisch und noch einmal, mache ich, was ich gemacht habe, als ich Deutsch lernen war. Yay.

[@aminlakzian]

hahaha, nice video, I think fooling around sometimes works better than study

[@InsertTruthHere]

1:15 should be => "I haven't done anything so far."

[@simon19661000]

You never ever stop learning a language.

[@InsertTruthHere]

That activity when you sit down to do your work for school or prepare, say, for an exam, isn't called "learning" but "studying." Incidentally it's one of the most common errors among German speakers. But even here I'm not sure if it's intended irony...

[@eagleeye9405]

I find that learning a language with another language doesn't work for me. Instead of using english as the catalyst for Japanese. I am learning Japanese the same way I learned my mother tongue. e.g Qian bei - Cheers- (lift a glass in celebration of someone) or Qian bei- (lift a glass in celebration of someone) Which method sounds easier to you?

[@muhanadalansari9714]

Thumps up to start studying early morning after breakfast 😆 I am facing the same obviously with German and Japanese since I study both... I keep saying I will do this and that and ends up doing nothing .... but there are sometimes where I do really study especially at office a lot of time depressed of work and getting bored so I start to learn few things for entertainment like new vocabulary or daily used sentences... the rest I do remember them from the class or because I did it wrong at the first time and then I will have it sticked in my memory :D

[@notada7525]

I started learning korean 6momths ago and i'm still in unit 1 lesson 2 and i did not even looked into my vocabs since then ich bin ein held

[@dandan7884]

On a scale from 1 to 10 how much do you like spanish? I like 1.1 and I'm from Brazil, which makes the spanish learning as easy as american and british english.

[@InsertTruthHere]

3:30 should be => ...and I've been studying since this morning.

[@rockereivanivan]

I'm learning German, that's how I found your videos but first I learned English, I'm mexican btw and also l learned french and I have to say German is easier than French in my opinion. Thank you for this new video it's always a pleasure to watch your videos

[@OpticObsidiaN]

Eivan lml your native language is Spanish and you think a Germanic language is easier than another romance one? wow

[@rockereivanivan]

OpticObsidiaN I know it's weird but romance languages are difficult to me

[@thegeck0388]

3:34 is not a mistake! Anyway, could you someday explain the pronunciation of the german "r", please ?

[@domenicociarcia6492]

I'm italian and I started learning German two years ago and I admit I got in theese mistakes. At the end of the day I feel very guilty!

[@zaqmp]

Muchas felicidades por estar aprendiendo Español ;)

[@Store_bought_plutonium]

thats excatly what happens

[@OloNadTrolo]

Fooling around, at least the way you showed it in the video, is NOT a mistake. Ability to understand and say silly things is very important as it's a big part of day to day interactions.

[@echtabgedreht]

du bist ein lustiges Huhn! Ich mag das :)

Ugh, I was going to learn more French, but I watched your video instead! Now I'm commenting! Now to sleep. I can learn tomorrow. :-)

[@eddievehovic7029]

When I was earning my first bachelors I'd get stoned then study like a baked hermit. Then attempt the exams in the same consciousness. The Psych dept taught me that. I graduated with honors so I think they know what they are talking about. I should study abroad in Amsterdam. Maybe they got a strain that lowers test anxiety.

[@nikhil.4146]

hey Trixi. please suggest me some German radio channels for intermediate level as I'm struggling to improve my German listening skills being in India. There are some apps for radio channels aber auswhalen ein kanal richtig zum lernen purpose ist ein herausforderung. Könntest du mir bitte die gute channel empfehlen. Zum schluss möchte ich sagen, dass please make videos on the topics which the german-learning aspirants want. bitte.

[@jaimegallegos6299]

Vielen danke Trixie!

[@mahinahmed2316]

Danke, that was very helpful

[@adrianmole2101]

Ich mag deine Zeugs was du machen. Where u come from? Du sprichst deutsch, französisch, english and the hispanic? Great respect cause of no accent in your english german and french.

[@BellaPolii]

das ist so wahr! bitte mach ein video über das Lernen (how to learn one language easily) ;( :D

[@JadedStranger]

Trixie, you've certainly got me pegged. Please permit me to make a small correction: English-speakers do not "do" a mistake, they make one.

[@amrarnaout2343]

Do you recommend any method to learn the German articles? ^^

[@etvdzs]

+Amr Arnaout If you mean learning the noun genders, you really do just have to do your best to learn the gender along with each noun. There are various rules that people sometimes recommend (e.g. nouns ending in -er are usually masculine), but these have so many exceptions and are so difficult to remember that they are actually worse than nothing, in my experience anyway. If you mean learning the cases (nominative, accusative, dative, genitive), any halfway decent grammar book should explain these, although it still takes a lot of practice to get fluent with them.

[@amrarnaout2343]

Thank you

[@etvdzs]

+Amr Arnaout No worries :)

[@polinaolvera]

2:16 is aspirin really still a thing in Germany? I don't think anybody in Australia has taken an aspirin since 1985 ;)

[@lizben3463]

+etvdzs it really is :) why did it go out of use in Australia?

[@etvdzs]

+LizBen@ I'm not sure ^^ I remember it used to be common when I was very young, and I always thought it was cool the way it fizzes when you put it in water :) But later all grown-ups started saying it damages the stomach lining (I have no idea if that's true or not), and we weren't allowed to have it anymore. You can still buy it in the shops here, but it's not very common, most people use other painkillers such as paracetamol.
