I'm all for high-intensity learning, but I get the hesitation because it can be quite challenging and demanding. I appreciate the tips shared here, especially the idea of participating in language challenges. It's a great way to infuse some intensity into your language learning without overwhelming yourself.

[@ShibaHamamatsucho]

I've been with my Japanese wife (only shared language is japanese) for a year and a half now and the amount i learned has been unthinkable. I was around mid N2 level when I met her (High B2) but now I can confidently say i'm High C1 or even C2 equivalency. I'm able to speak casual and formal japanese to such a high level that people often get shocked when i tell them i've studied for 'only' 6 years. I'm really grateful to my wife. Now it's my turn to teach her english, and then italian hahaha. Great tips.

Wait, what is this _"N"_ stage? Thought the language learning stages started at A1 and climbed up to C2.

[@ragnarokofborg]

@@jbhann Apparently Japanese-Language Proficiency Test. N1 is "equivalent" (according to Wikipedia.." to B2-C1 in the European CEFR scale.

As someone who has been learning Arabic in a non-Arab country, it's been difficult to find local speakers. But I'm about 1.5 years into my journey with Arabic, and I've now got 2 local speakers that I've found. One man owns a gas station and another owns a furniture store. Both have been very excited that I'm learning Arabic and so nice to me. I enjoy speaking with them, and it feels so good to make these connections within the local community!

I was in a relationship with a Greek guy who couldn’t speak English at all. I went to visit him in an island 2 hours from Athens. At that time I was learning Greek for 2 years and read better than having conversations. My boyfriend helped me a lot and corrected a lot of the errors I made 😂 back then I spoke better Greek. Now I just read Greek articles.

[@Soreto23]

Wow, that's amazing! Did you study Greek every day? How many hours a day, approximately? Did you learn by yourself, or did you attend classes? Where are you from? :D"

I have a suggestion that’s a variant on Tip #3, travelling to your target country: travel to your target country not as a tourist but enrolled in something of interest to you that you will participate in with native speakers, like a yoga course, or on a hiking trip, or taking a culinary course, or a chess or music camp, or doing a working farm vacation or whatever! I don’t find that one gets much of an opportunity to put language skills to use in a “tourist” setting where pretty well everyone speaks English well and is trained to use it with all foreigners and also where the subjects of conversation are going to be extremely limited. A further variant that works very well in my target language, German, is to go on an organized trip with native speakers! I recently did a two-week hiking trip with a German group in Morocco, organized by a German company. I got two weeks of almost continual German (with a little bit of French and a few words of the Moroccan variant of Arabic and even Amazigh, the Berber language, thrown in!). All of this works only if you’re at least at the B2 level and preferably at C1…

About dating a speaker of one's target language: Jan van Steenbergen, who is Dutch, is one of the founders of what's now called Interslavic, a constructed language for communication among Slavs, and has invented a Cyrillic orthography for Polish. How did a Dutch accomplish this Slavic stuff? By marrying a Pole.

You know it's a polyglot world where there's not a fraction of a shame to be found in the vibe that languages come first, while love may or may not arise somewhere in the backgroud. Daniel Defoe did something similar in Robinson Crusoe where he offhandedly stated in the single sentence on the topic that his wife was not a nuisance to him.

Don't you think "go on dates with native speakers [to learn a language 10x faster]" is a very cheap - to put it very politely - piece of advice?

Unless your friend was born rich I am curious to know what he did to get the independent wealth necessary to travel and enroll in a year-long intensive program like that Looking for ideas on how I can get that kind of freedom to learn languages since I can’t even imagine how fast the process would be expedited

Hungary is way cheaper than Belgium and most "western" countries, so the course was probably relatively affordable to him. Also, living expenses in Hungary are way lower as well.

[@gc3k]

This may not work for everyone, and it's not a magic pill either, but playing audio in your target language all day can help you get in the mood to use that language. If you rented an apartment in a country (or district) that speaks your target language, you would hear that language outside your window-- people on the sidewalk talking, or music and TV playing. At home, or your car or office, you can similarly immerse yourself by using nonstop audio playback, even if the audio isn't loud enough to understand

Luca, I have a problem. All my target language learning resources are in English or my native language, all my target language speakers also speak english very well or even better (in written form), or at least the ones I find online or living here in my city. I am shy / or at least too lazy to struggle in my target language when speaking is really about communication about some topics. my passive understanding of written texts has seriously gotten up the last two years (thats what I mainly practiced), but I barely can speak sentences and still feel not like doiing so. And none of the natives then starts to speak in his/ her language to me, it feels unnatural. seems I stay on the A1 for still some more time, but thanks for sharing the story

[@neilfazackerley7758]

I think that you are always learning when the language is not your own language, even when you are at C1 or even C2 standard. Speed is perhaps not the key to this. To learn new words you have to see the words many times and in many different contexts until they are embedded in your brain forever. This takes time, involves lots of reading and content consumption and is not really achievable in an overnight fix.

[@myself.scheme9845]

I really wonder where you get knowledges and informations of language learning methodology. Research or Blogs?

In short, if u are rich or european you can follow these ''tips''. Thanks for the other videos though.

[@carnivoreisvegan]

There's always ways to learn if you want to. I traveled through Bolivia and met several people who had never native English speaking ability who learned through listening to music and studying the lyrics carefully! Also, there's many opportunities to travel to other countries for free or to even get paid: peace corps is one, working on a cruise ship is another. There's so many opportunities. I recently went to Jordan and a huge % of the population speaks excellent English learned by simply interacting with tourists. Virtually none of these people even had cell phones or internet, and lived in tiny villages.

[@lisanidog8178]

Again what’s the hurry! a did you learn your native language at the speed of light? a of course not! Listening, repeating, situations, and hopefully your parents kept talking to you and of course you have TV and videos. Why the rush! So what if it takes you 10 years to be able to see an entire movie in your chosen language before you understand it perfectly! Why should it matter whether you talk to someone, your pet or yourself or the wall in your chosen language. Are you learning the language to learn something new or to impress! Language learning should be fun. Games, quizzes, seeing movies with subtitles in your native language to understand words or phrases that are new. Do it just to do it! It’s like climbing a mountain. You need your basic equipment so hopefully you don’t fall and bye bye you. Learning a language you have your basic equipment. Words, phrases, practical use, repetition. You have to learn how to use your mountain climbing equipment. You don’t throw everything on. You know what goes where and why. You’re going to learn a language slowly. Listening to the language to get an ear for it. Listening and seeing it in print. Repeating so you get the word right. Learning the meaning. Learning how to use that meaning and where to put it in a sentence. If you don’t know what you’re doing in mountain climbing it’s not gonna go well. If you expect to learn a whole language in here weeks learning how others learn not how you learn, it’s not gonna work out. Learning fast or slow. Why are you in a hurry. You didn’t learn your native language fast or slow, you just picked it up. There is no race. And then you have the perfectionist stage. You’re going to make mistakes. You did that learning your native language. People you practice your language on shouldn’t care your mistakes. Being a teacher of course it matters, but you don’t demean the student. People you practice on care that you try. They’re not or shouldn’t be picky just as you don’t correct people speaking to you in English not so good. You get the drift. One teacher said don’t use this phrase! You’ll sound like a beginner and sound stupid! I called her condescension out! If you understand what they’re saying you as a teacher should be glad you try, now here is an alternative, not treat you like you’re the worst thing that ever stood upright. It does take time to learn a language. I’m learning Spanish because ai love the language. I’m in no hurry. I take understanding the directions more of an accomplishment than being able to understand a movie all the way through. You’re gonna have to watch it over and over. When you get bored then you know you mastered that one thing even if it’s just the first scene. When you can understand a small bit of dialogue without reading the subtitles you know you mastered it. Languages should be fun and for the joy of learning. It’s not a marathon.

[@ludmilamaiolini6811]

I think those tips make sense when you have a good reason to learn fast, such as job opportunities that require an intermediate level in the target language

[@lisanidog8178]

@@ludmilamaiolini6811 you can only learn so much at a time. But if you have the basics then learning real fast helps. But if you’re just starting, it takes a while.
