I'm learning Spanish for my New Year's resolution. I'm putting it here so I can comment at the end of the year if I procrastinated, or if I actually learned the language! (Edit: See further down my post to see an update!) Anyways, best wishes to all of you on your language learning goals and thank you Ikenna for these awesome videos! They're very motivating. 🙂 Edit: Happy final day of 2022! I decided to clean things up a bit because it got too wordy. How did it go? Well... I'm able to understand and talk about basic things in the present and future tense. While I slowed down a bit with the busy school year (yup, I'm a teacher!), I did practice a lot with my Spanish-speaking students. I would have phrases memorized (and written down in case I forget), then I would repeat the phrase to them. Many times, certain words would keep popping up, which would help with memorization. The students would cheer when I make up a sentence on the spot or pronounce a Spanish phrase perfectly. I can understand a lot of children's shows when I watch them slowly, and much of it when it's in regular speed. Reading children's books, and short Spanish stories are much easier. A good test was during parent-teacher report card pickup. We would have Spanish-speaking parents come in. They would ask me if I speak Spanish while speaking slowly, and I could actually have a small conversation with them! Only problem is that I'm still awful with the past tense (so a goal for next year!), but the parents understood by context if I was speaking in the past (I had a Spanish-speaking teacher with me in case I mess up terribly.) And for those wondering how I learned, it's: Duolingo, lots of short Spanish-speaking videos (I don't have much patience watching long videos), I play movies I already know in Spanish as background noise as I clean the house, I listen to Pimsleur (my favorite app!), read short Spanish stories (Dr. Seuss in Spanish is fun, Olly Richards' books are nice, and you can always find stuff online), read a bunch of KZbin comments on Spanish videos (to keep myself current with the "hip" phrases, LOL, even though I have no idea what most are because people tend to shorten words), took a Spanish class online for a couple of lessons, and speaking with other Spanish-speaking friends, students, and shops/restaurants. Oh yeah, a side note... I studied French years ago, so I would often accidentally mix French into my Spanish. Anyways, thanks everyone for keeping me in check! I had no idea many people would be interested in my journey. Maybe I'll do another update next year. Best wishes to all of you in 2023!

[@Impauseible]

Ikenna inspired me to start learning Japanese so that I can move to Japan some day. I have been watching him for the past year and he is what inspired me to get this far. I lost my motivation after I asked a college professor that taught languages if it was possible to self study Japanese. This is what he told me “It is impossible for you to self study a language especially one as difficult as Japanese. You need a classroom and a teacher to learn, you yourself is not enough to learn a new language”. I just sat in the car and watched a video of Ikenna talking to native speakers and impressing them and getting to interact with others on other sides of the world all by self studying languages. Ikenna in the small chance that you will actually read this, ありがとうございます、イケーナさん！ Update: It’s been a few months and I hit my goal in May 2022! Of course I revisit Japanese and review but I’ve started on my next language: Korean! It’s going pretty well and my notebook is filling up. Thank you all so much for your support and I am still working towards my goal of living abroad!

Of course the college professor is going to tell you that a classroom is needed, it's literally his job to teach. The wonderful thing about the internet is having resources to learn just about anything that you want. You can absolutely learn a lot of Japanese on your own. If you want to get to a high level you will need to talk to native speakers, but that can also be done without a needing a college course.

[@Leopardvixen369]

@@lithasunset I tried to learn Ukrainian and Russian at the same time. Language teachers and people who are fluent will tell you not to learn multiple languages at the same time. Just one language requires so much work and dedication!! If you are studying two languages at once, you will have to do twice the amount of studying every day since you must study daily and immerse yourself in the target language to become fluent. I gave up on the Ukrainian because the vocabulary was so similar and also because there are very few resources on the web for self-studying Ukrainian. There are tons and tons of Russian resources out there! Both languages share about 60% percent of vocabulary, but the other 40% will just confuse you because it’s so much like Russian. Ukrainian grammar is also a bit different with new patterns to learn for noun declension and conjugations of verbs/adjectives/adverbs/pronouns. Both languages have an extensive case system. It helps other people to know what parts of the sentence are the subject, verb, direct object, preposition, etc because Russian and Ukrainian have flexible word order in sentences. Just one noun in either language can have 40+ different suffixes!! Slavic languages are very difficult to learn. Not as difficult as Mandarin or Japanese, but plenty difficult.

[@freddykrueger6910]

The hardest part for me was to choose which language I wanted to start learning first. I decided to learn Spanish because my grandfather, even though he’s lived in the US for years, still speaks fluently and still has a very thick accent so I figured it would be easier to speak to him in his mother language and it would also make him happy. I’ve been learning Spanish for a while before this video but your methods have been working really well for me. Some other languages I want to learn are French, German, Japanese, and Korean. Sorry for the long comment but learning languages is just something I am very passionate about and dedicated to. Happy learning everyone!

[@praisetelesto]

Hello sir, how are you doing right now? Have you reached conversational fluency?

[@FloXXVIIII]

También estoy aprendiendo español durante 3 semanas. Haré todo lo posible para lograr este mi intento. You are not curious. I used translation. 😂

[@DidiEkpenyong2]

How are you doing now?😊

[@Alejandra-iv9es]

Notes: Ikenna's definition of conversational fluency: ♡ Easily have long conversations with native speakers ♡ Sometimes watch TV without subtitles ♡ Connecting with people ♡ Flirting Conversational fluency does not mean perfection by any means! You'll still make mistakes but you will be able to connect with people which is the most important part of language learning. The Ikenna Method: Level 0 - Preparation Level 1 - Beginner Level 2 - Intermediate Level 3 - Advanced We will not be going into level 0 and level 3 for the sake of time ~ Level 1 - Consume (Typically lasts 4-9 months) Level one is broken into 2 parts or stages 🤍 Stage 1: ♡ Soft landing ♡ Dry but effective ♡ A way to review ♡ A way to have fun to stay motivation 🤍 What is a soft landing? Using a beginner course/resource that will softly introduce you to the language without scaring you away: ♡ Pimsleur ♡ Michelle Thomas ♡ Language Transfer ♡ Beginner textbook These gently guide you into the language, however, in tandem you want to be using something that is dry but effective 🤍 Dry but effective: Start learning from a list of the most common 1000 - 1500 words in your target language and jot down 5 - 10 words everyday. Do this as you are going through the beginner program. Something dry and a little boring in bite sized chunks everyday is sustainable. Soft + dry = win 🤍 A way to review everything You want to use a tool like Anki or another Space Repetition System (SRS) to store words you are learning 🤍 Fun - Consuming the language in its natural form You want to be listening to media and immersing yourself in your target language. Get as much of it in your ears as possible ♡ Watching TV shows (can use subtitles) ♡ Podcasts ♡ KZbin ♡ Music • When does Stage 2 begin? After you have 1. Learned the most common 1000 - 1500 words 2. Finished a beginner course or two 🌸 Stage 2: 🌸 Look for easy reading materials: ♡ Graded Readers ♡ Webtoons Translate Read as much as you can, pictures in comics make them easier to get through 🌸 Find some resources that help you learn the basics of grammar in your target language ♡ KZbin ♡ Small Grammar Course ♡ Grammar textbook 🌸 Continue to store new words you learn in Anki or whichever SRS you are utilizing ~ Level 2 - Output (6 - 12 months to Years) 🌷 Practicing your speaking skills for atleast 1-3 months ♡ italki ♡ HelloTalk ♡ Preply ♡ Tandem ♡ Interpals Find tutors and penpals to practice your speaking with. You cannot get conversational if you never practice speaking 🌷 Continue watching TV shows in your target language with subtitles in your target language as a main activity ♡ Jot down and save words every 10 minutes The coolest part about reaching level two, aka conversational fluency, is that the language will stick with you for the rest of your life at this level. You are never going to forget it. Level 2 is the point where you can decide to keep advancing and push past conversational fluency or you can decide to start learning another language. ~ The Ikenna Method video course explains all 4 levels in detail and includes access to a community of other language learners

[@JohnnyYeTaecanUktena]

My question is. Who in their right mind would want to have long conversations with anyone? I am probably a introvert but that just pops in my head when people say that

[@Alejandra-iv9es]

Ah everyone is different. I'm an introvert as well but I enjoy longer conversations depending on the topic. You can always learn languages with bite-sized conversations but longer conversations are what will ultimately really imprint the language in your brain and cause exponential progress. Best of luck to you!

I still have small conversations with my co-workers in Spanish, and I still sing my favorite Spanish songs in the car often (and god I love it), but I don't study like I should. Nowadays, the most I do is listen to the Language Transfer course. I'm around lesson 45 or so. To be honest, I never studied hardcore, even immediately after posting that comment. I really need to find a Spanish show that I like. I tried 2 and then didn't bother after that. I think I just have to make a plan and stick to it.. set rewards and stuff. I think the problem is that "learning Spanish" seems like such a big task that I don't know where to pick back up. I don't know which vocab I should learn next, and I've been nervous to try out speaking sessions on Italki for fear of being bad, but I know these are all just limiting beliefs. if any of you guys have recommendations, let me know for sure. Thanks for your inquiry, but how are your language journeys going?? @@Cutebabiesz222

I can only speak English rn and have been intimidated by language learning ever since I became interested in the hobby, having no clear path on something this foreign is definitely off putting. For a beginner jumping in the deep end (with Japanese) this course is exactly what I needed. Now that I think about it the direction is probably the most difficult part of learning a language, with all of the varying courses and methods. With so little progress being made as beginner learners sometimes we forget that our brains are pattern recognition *machines* capable of amazing things if we figure out how to let it work. I don't think I will be learning 20 languages or anything but I hope in a few years I will at least be bilingual, which is more than I could have said when I was 17. I wish I could thank Ikenna lol but this comment will probably get buried.

[@RecklessInspirer]

Thank you so much for recording this video for us!

[@e-genieclimatique]

in brief: In this video, the speaker presents the Akena method, a language learning method developed by the speaker himself after learning seven languages over ten years. The method aims to help learners achieve conversational fluency in any language within 6 to 12 months. It consists of four levels: preparation, beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Level 1 (Beginner) focuses on consuming the language and typically lasts for 4-9 months. This level is divided into two stages. Stage 1 involves a soft landing using beginner programs, learning common words, reviewing with spaced repetition systems, and watching TV shows in the target language. Stage 2 starts after learners have acquired 1,000-1,500 common words and finished a beginner program or two. In this stage, learners engage in easy reading, learn basic grammar, and use Anki or a similar program to store and review words. Level 2 (Intermediate) starts when learners know around 2,000 words and understand half of what they hear in TV shows. This level emphasizes output, with learners practicing speaking through websites like iTalki, HelloTalk, or Tandem. Additionally, learners should watch TV shows in the target language with subtitles in the same language. The speaker also announces the launch of the Akena Method video course, which offers a more detailed step-by-step guide to reach conversational fluency. The course covers mindset, important language learning questions, special techniques, and a customizable approach depending on the learner's personality type. The course also grants exclusive access to the creator's Discord server and a discount on his upcoming app.

I’m learning the Croatian Language, my dad was born in Yugoslavia in 1972 and he’s fluent in Croatian but I’m fluent in English only and did my research and apparently the “Croatian Language” is one of the hardest too learn out of any Language if your fluent in English. That’s not gonna stop me though I’m gonna be consistent and stick to my routine. I’m actually excited too see how my progress will be over the weeks/months I’m in no rush to see results just going to take it day by day.

I think between your method and the app (when it’s ready) I’m absolutely going to have the best tools possible for learning Korean (and everything else). My goal after that is Ukrainian which won’t be that difficult for me at all as I was fluent as a child and can still speak a little. And after that, Spanish (I already know some). I’ll be a polyglot thanks to you! After Spanish it’s French and after French it’s Italian. Then Japanese and then Portuguese. Seriously. I’m not stopping. I might do Polish and Russian to top it off. Russia bastardized the Ukrainian language so it won’t be that hard.

My plan is similar to yours. I’m a native English/Punjabi speaker, know a fair bit of Spanish as I’ve been learning it at school and college for several years, formerly learnt French as a young child but have forgotten a lot of it so this kind of gives me a bit of a head start. I plan on perfecting my Spanish, learning all the French I’ve forgotten, and picking up as many as I can afterwards! My main goal is to become fluent in Dutch to surprise my native speaking Dutch boyfriend 😂

I started leaning arabic, and of course it is not the same situation at all so i am not as motivated and not learning as fast at alll.

Hi Ikenna. I wanted to pick your brain regarding an issue I started having in my early 20’s. My first language was Spanish and I have parents that were born/raised in a Hispanic country. As the years have passed by, I felt my skills slipping. At first it wasn’t too serious but I knew that I had to start to formally teach myself Spanish if I wanted to maintain a flowing conversational level. I never buckled down and did that. The more I matured, the more I’d get in my head and second guess my intuitive Spanish-speaking. Now I can’t get across anything without stuttering or pausing. It’s embarrassing. I try to form a study plan but I always get discouraged. It’s beginner’s grammar that I need to start with but these books always include a huge chunk of info I already know, such as vocab, and I get bored. I understand Spanish very well in person. Sometimes I miss a word here or there watching tv. My accent is still spot on. Do you have any tips for me on what to focus on? Edit: I can also read Spanish. I write it at a 5th grade level with grammar mistakes.

[@jeremybuckets]

If this method sounds simple-maybe even a little too obvious-that's because it is. There aren't really any secrets to language learning. It takes a lot of input and some output over a long period of time. Props to Ikenna for not trying to dress anything up with fancy "learning hacks" that are actually useless and just bloat the product for marketing purposes, and even more props for giving a realistic timeline instead of this "fluent in 30 days" crap that only demotivates people after they fail to live up to that impossible standard. I can't vouch for the paid course specifically, but I can only imagine what you're paying for is Ikenna having done the work to curate the input at each competency level for you. Yes, with enough time and energy, you could do that yourself for free. But I imagine for a lot of people it will be worth having that curation done by a professional instead. Anyway, best of luck Ikenna, I liked your channel and I hope you're health and your business will continue to look up.

I have POTS, too, and it's incredibly disabling, as you very well know. I'm glad to know that the brain fog and everything else that comes with having this particular chronic illness doesn't hinder your ability to learn languages. I was diagnosed 3 years ago, and it pretty much halted everything in my life, including learning languages (and keeping up with a language I started learning 20 years ago), so I'm delighted to know there's a method out there that works WITH people who have this, though, of course, I'm sure it's not totally your target audience for it. Anyway, I loved this video! I decided about a week ago I'm going to learn Croatian since my family comes from former Yugoslavia around the Croatian/Bosnian border, and this is, in some small way, a way I can connect with my past and to learn the culture. It felt daunting to get to a B1 (or even B2) level in a year, especially since I saw how many hours it takes to reach it!, but I'm determined.
