[@GoLongAmerica]

If you're learning Spanish in the USA, you can get language immersion in most big cities.

[@JerryRegistre]

Great point-Miami and NYC have tons of Spanish speakers. It’s not completely the same as being in a fully Spanish-speaking place where you can’t use English as an out, but it’s a solid start

[@comounaverdura]

Tienes razón.

[@alanguages]

To the op, Not exactly. I was in San Diego and was in Little Italy, the people there didn't speak Italian and it definitely was not an Italian enclave. I heard it used to be, but now there are many Mexicans and just people who speak English. No Italian immersion at all.

[@GoLongAmerica]

@@alanguages I heard that most Italian Americans don't speak Italian. It's sad.

[@alanguages]

I heard similarly. They are likely how many generations in the USA though. I think it is also reflective in the Americas. Many Italians in Argentina and Brazil, but they also just adopted the local languages of Spanish and Portuguese.@@GoLongAmerica

[@BEYOURLANGUAGE-hr1gb]

I have been watching lots of videos on how to learn a language, and now I know what to do. 1. listen 2. write 3. speak 4. do dueling and pimsleur or any other resource. yay now I am going to become fluent! yayayay!

[@freecss9330]

[@wagonhound_official]

Living and working in Houston, TX for the last year is the best thing I've done for my Spanish.

[@JerryRegistre]

I was so close to moving to Miami or Texas at one point 😂

[@BrendaD72]

I lived in the country part of FL, where there’s a lot of agricultural work. Meaning lots of Spanish speaking neighbors. It’s amazing how fast you pick each others’ language up when you have to learn to communicate.

[@Acekanine]

i just need something that explains actual stuff like grammatical structure instead of vocabulary now, thanks for the list, was very well put together and very neat editing as well

[@JerryRegistre]

I'm glad you liked it. If you need grammar for Spanish, I started on StudySpanish.com and eventually switched to Manual de gramática by Zulma Iguina

I’m going to be a foreign exchange student in Colombia next year. I’m watching this to learn as much Spanish as I can before I go but I’m so grateful to be able to study in another country for a year. I’m doing it through rotary and it’s definitely the most affordable way to immerse yourself in another country for a long period of time however there is still a lot of preparation but they can help you through some of it if you have questions. Thanks for the video!

[@slim_bubblegum]

I am from Colombia, I hope you have a good time in my country, if by chance you come to the city of Cali I can show you some places. (I'm learning English)😊

[@tarknural5963]

another amazing video, thanks!

[@JerryRegistre]

Happy to hear that! 🙌🏽

[@NotDaisyNYC]

This is a great overview of options. I would rate KZbin higher on ease. It's the primary (almost exclusive) way I learned Spanish for the first 8 months and I continue to use it to advance (although now I focus on teachers whose videos are entirely or almost entirely in Spanish, e.g., Hola Spanish, Español con Juan, etc.). Although you have to search a bit for good teachers, some of the best (e.g., The Language Tutor, Qroo Paul, and others) have structured series on their channels to help people build their knowledge in a logical way.

[@JerryRegistre]

I’m happy you liked the overview! And I’m definitely with you on the usefulness of KZbin teachers-I spent a good bit of time going through Spanish with Vicente when I first dove into Spanish. And those packaged series definitely make it easier to find the right videos

[@arhanghosh2744]

[@user-lu8cw5iv1r]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SHARING ! Understanding other languages, especially Spanish has been challenging for me. However, with the help of useful extensions like Immersive Translate and DeepL, I've been able to overcome the language barrier.

[@OzkAltBldgCo-bv8tt]

​@@JerryRegistreJerry I left you a resources list you could make a video using those resources all 14 of them that were not mentioned in this video. I'm imagining you using these resources for other languages such as Portuguese or French. Once you do duals on Lingo Play it becomes exciting and addictive. Whenever you use a translator pen instead of having to switch to Reverso application to check or look up a word you save time. It is fun to let your voice flow while singing to the Lirica karaoke Spanish app and getting the backstory at the same time as a lesson. Babadum is so Elementary and so easy that even a kid could use it stress free and fun.

[@JerryRegistre]

@@OzkAltBldgCo-bv8tt thanks for sending them! Did you email them? I have a long list of emails to get through, but I do plan to keep working through it slowly over time until I get through them 🙌🏽

[@OzkAltBldgCo-bv8tt]

@@JerryRegistre actually I left it as a reply in the comments scroll up to your first comment that you there it says Jerry resources list. One last thing nobody is mentioning Hello Talk social media hardly As just a place for language Learners to gather I have yet to actually use it for much study. In the future the translator pins won't have to connect to the internet because everything will be downloaded into their hard drive. This will be awesome because you'll be able to take it into more remote places. For some reason my translator pin would not accept the hotspot from my phone. It has to be WiFi.

[@fernwehtwl]

i have been living in spain for 2.5 years and i still speak no spanish with broken spanglish. just because you are inside a country and living doesn't mean you will become fluent . You really need to find hte right people to practice spanish with ..spain is becoming very international that 1/3 people you meet will speak english well to you. I have tried to speak spanish outside to locals and they respond back to me in english becaues they are so frustrated trying to figure out what im saying and makes me feel so dumb. I think the bottom like is motivation and drive. Without that it doesn't matter if you live in spain or not. I also met an american who lived in barcelona for 10 years and still in A1 Spanish

​@@JerryRegistre​​​ I challenge you to take the Clozemaster 10 languages 10 questions each challenge. Pick any 10 languages video yourself taking the challenge and inspire us. (whether you have studied are familiar with or not). This is a fun opportunity to showcase your talent with a little bit of humility proving you too are human and still a language learner. You can put the flags of the 10 languages you choose for the challenge in both the thumbnail and the title and tag the video as #takingtheclozemaster 10 languages challenge. While also tagging the languages of the challenge. When choosing from a diverse variety of languages consider this, to include some of those you're familiar with, those that you are not, and those that you will later learn. Choosing to include a conlang like Interlingua and an ancient language like Latin will keep the challenge diverse while bringing recognition to these languages (you may surprise yourself). Consider getting a hold of Clozemaster they may be interested in sponsoring the video. We as a community of language Learners need a challenge that we can all appreciate and try together. To get the most out of the video challenge adjust the settings as follows: put the skills to listening, the question count to 10, and the mode to multiple choice. Then you can adjust the account to dark mode (as it's more attractive) and the default speed to 75% for better hearing the questions. Doing a dry run will ensure all the settings are correct. Keep a notepad by your side to keep track of the language scores. Before you end the video it would be nice if you encouraged other polyglots and language Learners to take up the challenge.

Nice video thanks for putting me onto Dele I’ll definitely try to achieve it. Another way someone can learn Spanish in terms of immersion would definitely be Twitch there are thousands of people streaming at any given time and whilst their aren’t subtitles it does a pretty decent job at realistic immersion.

[@JerryRegistre]

Nice out of the box thinking 🙌🏽 Twitch will probably give you some real colloquial phrases (and maybe some you won't want to repeat in public lol), but as long as you're learning and enjoying it, it's a win in my book.

What is that language game that uses A Link to the Past as a platform?

[@Barboy0]

How is going to Spain S tier if in categories of cost and ease it's ranked super low? Is the tier list purely about effectiveness?

[@JerryRegistre]

I did the tier itself based on effectiveness (left a small note on this in the video) since the core question for a lot of people is what’s the best way to learn fast. And then I included the cost and ease ratings. The hope is that people can filter out methods that pass their budget (or ease if they have a threshold there), and then they can pick the most effective method left. I asked a few language friends what would be most helpful, and they thought that this route would be better for them rather than balancing across all 3 factors for the tier ranking.

1:22 B2 is not "you can have simple conversations", that's A2. And you cannot get to B2 using Duolingo, you can get to A2 at most.

[@SimplyNani7]

I tried the movie method. There are a lot of Disney movies that I know by heart. So I figured by switching the language to Spanish I would easily learn. But they were talking too fast for me to understand so I turned on the subtitles. I quickly learn the subtitles do not match the words coming out of the mouth.

[@trevinodude]

It also depends on the movies, I learned. One way to ease yourself into learning Spanish by listening (according to my Mom who used this method as one of her tricks to learn English when she came to the USA) to music… but also looking up the lyrics so you can break down the parts of a song you can’t understand due to the speed of the singer or the inflection they used when singing. Essentially, using the lyrics to force learning at your own pace. Never actually tried it myself in my Spanish learning journey, but I’m going to try this for myself. Hopefully this suggestion helps somehow.

Personally, I'd recommend Immersive translate. I'd start learning foreign languages for free earlier than i did. It was one of my best choices.

[@KateDexter]

Actually… I think Duolingo is not that terrible. I have just started learning French there. I think that as long as I don’t use Duolingo as my main learning, I will be able to progress. For example, I spend about 30min a day on Duolingo + I constantly immerse myself in the language by watching films/videos is French even though I understand very little. Then I also watch videos on KZbin and soon when I understand the structure of sentences a bit better I will start my own little diary/notebook where I will write my own sentences and search for new words to learn. I also have friends who speak French (natives) who check my prononciation. But I really enjoy Duolingo, I don’t want to throw it away. Can I succeed with this plan?? Also - I am fluent in English, but I’ve only spoken it for about 6 years, so I use the same methods to learn a third language that helped me to learn a second language

Yeah it makes no sense. I finished like every lesson on duolingo french the longest course, and that has helped me immensely, previously i had 0 french knowledge. Netflix doesn't teach you anything. It's only good for practicing listening skills. But that can be said for like any foreign video with audio.

[@JerryRegistre]

Totally agree with you that Netflix isn't great for beginners and that Duolingo wins in that camp. But as soon as you get past the beginner stage, I definitely think that the volume of vocabulary and language you get exposed to watching a single episode of a show is so much more than what you'll get in 2-3 hours on Duolingo. So for me, Netflix immersion beats out Duolingo for speed of learning. But it is more challenging. (I did a lot of Netflix immersion to prep for my Spanish exams, personally).

Yes. I'm fluent in french and I struggle with duolingo still. The pace is waaay too slow and the mistake system is unforgiving. It also doesn't do well with grammar explanations. You also can't choose what you study, especially at the beginning

When You Want To Learn Spanish But Tu Idioma Nativo Ya Es El Español :v

[@bjoernoswald2473]

so the title of this video is bullshit. it's not HOW you would learn spanish if you'd start over again, but "my personal language learning methods/means tier list". Also I don't agree because if you would start all over again you would START at a beginner level first before most of the higher tier options become interesting. This list is already from the perspective of somebody who is in the A2-B1 level of a language if you ask me.

[@adrianbergesenfedaque8016]

Un C2 es mejor español que el de la mitad de la gente nativa así que enhorabuena.

I really need ChatGPT to understand: *MAS LENTO POR FAVOR* lol... trying to talk to ChatGPT is like trying to talk to a Dominican in fast forward... Es imposible jajaja

[@trevinodude]

I never realized AI would be useful in learning a language… but then again, I never felt the need since, at my workplace, half of the team I work with speak Spanish only (forcing me to practice more to become more fluent… still nowhere near C2 level though, but they are teaching me and I’m getting better) although I have to tell them (especially my Spanish speaking manager) “Más lento, todovía no entiendo cuando usted habla muy rápido.”

[@Santiago00]

@@trevinodude I have some friends who speak Spanish, but they all live on the East Coast. I live in California and I can't be bothering them three hours behind talking bout teach me, teach me lol... Sometimes I get to talk to them but eventually I want to get to the point where I can go to one of these open air markets near me and buy some clothes and food and talk to the Mexican folk around here. (and eventually solo travel there, and several other countries) I've got a ways to go, but ChatGPT helps me and I guess it works that it speaks fast because that's how real people speak, but as I'm learning, it helps to hear it slow.

[@trevinodude]

@@Santiago00 I can relate to that. I’m a Latino that grew up in Texas… but due to complications never learned Spanish. Sometime hearing the language slowed down to digest it just helps make it clearer. I’m glad AI is helping you learn, I just lucked out with the people in my life… but still, you gotta use the tools you have. I commend you for finding a way to practice. Takes dedication to keep looking for a way.

If you put Duolingo on F, then your family will go to hell.

[@calvinspiff4348]

Mexico is next door... why go to Spain?

[@trevinodude]

Maybe he had more of an interest in Castilian Spanish. No matter how fluent you are in a language, each dialect of a language is still slightly different enough for the small nuances to be interesting to learners. Like how Americans say sneakers and British people call them trainers… such a small difference but it just seems more different than it is.

You lost me at promoting cheapgpt, you naively speak happy about it because you’re just a consumer, not the people replaced

[@JerryRegistre]

Like most technology, it has good and bad sides. You’re right that AI is going to bring a lot of challenges with it (e.g. taking away jobs, making mistakes, etc.). But there will be some improvements, and the one that I called out here is for language learners. I’m still playing with it to see other ways language students might get use from AI like ChatGPT, but it definitely has a lot of potential. Cheers 🙌🏽

[@biomuseum6645]

@@JerryRegistre plenty of people learned a language without this

[@trevinodude]

@@biomuseum6645The point Jerry was making is that it’s an option that’s available for learners and an options he did that helped him… just because you don’t like it doesn’t make it any less effective in practice. Like Jerry said… technological advancement often comes with its positives and its negatives… but as you also said, people can choose to learn a language without AI. So if you don’t like it, you don’t have to do it, but it would be a bit disingenuous if AI helped him and he didn’t at least mention it.

[@user-ms1sq9kn3u]

i just need something that explains actual stuff like grammatical structure instead of vocabulary now, thanks for the list, was very well put together and very neat editing as well

[@JerryRegistre]

I’m glad you liked it 🙌🏽 If it’s Spanish grammar you’re looking for, I had good experiences with StudySpanish.com and the books Gramática esencial (Rojas) + Manual de gramática (Iguina)

[@OtHaku]

Someone on your comments once said eleven labs had nice text to speech voices and now my main method to practice listening. I still hear videos in English (like this), Chinese and so on. But if I need custom phrases to practice new vocabulary, I use eleven labs. // Thanks for the VR recommendations! This is the first time I see those recommendations, and I had no idea I could do such things on my headset

[@JerryRegistre]

Thanks for sharing, and I’m glad you found the video helpful! I’ll check out the speech voices too
