Do these 3 things to learn any language

[@christel3742]

Reading is a great way to learn grammar as well. Seeing verbs conjugated in action does more for my brain than memorizing tenses in German

[@AfroLinguo]

True. Writing is also in this category! I did a lot of writing when I was learning german and it helped me understand most of the grammar

[@christel3742]

@@AfroLinguo That’s a good point! I want to start a journal for that purpose.

[@AfroLinguo]

@@christel3742 that will definitely help

I wish you all the best, glad to see you keep making videos

[@believeonChriststaystrong7589]

He’s spot on. this is what I do a lot with learning my second language and it helps. Speaking, thinking in the language, listening, and increasing vocab. A lesson I’ve had to learn is to be patient with myself even when I don’t understand because it will come in time. For anyone reading this, hang in there and keep at it, take a little break for a couple days if you need to but don’t give up you will get there

You should do more videos on specific topics, extensive reading, intensive, srs, how to take a lesson, how dl could actually be helpful, how to work on pronunciation, etc…

Loving these videos! Thanks for making them. Hello from Milwaukee!

[@FingtamLanguages]

So glad you are enjoying the videos! :)

thx for this awesome input

[@Andrei-vo4eq]

That's being my experience for the last 5 years.. I listened to thousands of hours of English but I only did like maybe 100 hours of talking total. Now I understand everything but my speaking isn't perfect yet. I do reading out loud these days and my vocab is increasing slowly. I'm planning on using memrise as a space repetition system.

[@rebel5669]

I want to overcome my hesitation of speaking L2. Like whenever I'm having a monologue inside of my head everything's fine but when I have to jump into a dialogue with another individual, my mind gets frozen and I don't have any words. Also I don't have anyone to practice with. Your suggestions will be considered valuable in this regard.

[@Saad-ul6py]

These suggestions fit more for intermediate speakers

[@FingtamLanguages]

No, actually anyone can do them. There are ways to get started with these three tasks even from day one of learning.

[@philippuhrig3681]

Nice video, although I feel like srs becomes more useful the further down the line of your language learning journey you are, because then the words bscome ao rare that it is hard to aquire them. In the beginning one is always confronted with the same words over and over so that for me it doesnt seem necessary to actively put them in an srs. Keep up the content mate !

[@FingtamLanguages]

Thanks! No matter what level you are at, I recommend doing SRS for only about 10% of your study time. In my opinion it's just there to support the other two tasks.

[@ADHDlanguages]

I would love to see some actual research on this. My gut feeling is to agree with you though. Particularly because many common words have a greater complexity that can't be captured in a simple definition as easily.

[@pchicrlo]

With reading, how often do you suggest re-reading the same material before moving on to new material?

[@fannyfish2205]

Have you read the syntax book by Andrew Carnie?

[@aamirnagaria2189]

Does having English subtitles while watching movies/shows in our target language help or defeats the purpose?

[@engwithrano7830]
