So true that context and the "feeling" of a word is more important than the definition. By exposing yourself to a ton of the language, you'll naturally realize when certain words are used over others. WAY back in the day, I used to try to use the "1000 most common Korean words" lists to learn vocab... what a waste of time. Learning through context is 1) a more effective way to learn and 2) way more interesting than a list of words.

[@Neville031]

That’s interesting! 😊 How did u expose urself to your target language? I’m currently learning Spanish and the ‘top 1000 words’ is one of my methods too and tbh I don’t like it (despite some ppl highly suggesting it). I really want to learn effectively as I can

[@SomedayKorean]

@@Neville031 I honestly stopped trying to memorize words for the sake of memorizing words. I watched a lot of TV shows and would listen to grammar podcasts where they would introduce different sentence structures and stuff (didn't do practice exercises or anything - just listened to them and then started noticing them everywhere in the TV shows I was watching). I would take note of new words when they were introduced but I wouldn't then go and actively study them, I would just eventually pick them up from them being used so much, if that makes sense.

[@theresnomap]

Thank you so much for uploading this. Each point that Jonson made was full of insight and real consideration of how to communicate his experience and share the tips with Korean learners. It was very comforting to hear some of the things you covered in this short interview and his comparison of learning a language to developing a personal relationship with another human being was spot on.

[@TheIndependentLanguageLearner]

“Language learning is nothing more than being a copycat” that’s so true!! I feel like talent and logic are extremely overrated, while exposure and comprehension are way underrated. I love how Jonson explains the mechanics of language acquisition. Thank you Lindie for such an amazing interview!!! ☺️

[@kaidenshin5251]

I'm a Korean, and you're Korean is phenomenal Lindie. Keep up the good work!

[@mapbernardo]

That last advice was the best!! I'll start thinking that learning languages is like exploring an entire village (the language) with different people (words) and different personalities (grammars). I'd be open to a lot of them to be able to learn quickly! Thank you so much for this. ❤️❤️

[@oumi1224]

As someone who speaks 3 languages and learned 2 others, Korean grammar is hard in a sense that whatever you're learning, there's ton other way to say it. Even for the present tense! Which is one of the most basic and used tense. In the other languages ( English, French, Arab Dutch and Spanish), there is one way to conjuguate a tense and that's how you gonna use it no matter the context. Korean language is really tricky. Good luck to everyone learning it!!

[@rensvh98]

16:27 - end is so insightful! Personifying a language as a person you want to befriend / fall in love with / get to know better. Or a village whose inhabitants you all want to meet. I really like that concept. Some words / grammar structures you will only encounter occasionally (like the doctor or your favorite local band), but you still know that they exist and that you have to use (see) them sometimes. And that it's very worth doing so. Great video as always, Lindie! You're an inspiration

[@Yumyummy8312]

Hey Lindie, I've been learning Korean for a year and couple months, I've been improving, which showed I was working, but over time I went into this never ending abyss, because I started to loose motivation, everytime something motivates me, I would tell myself, "yes, back on track!", But by the next day, it is as if that motivation never existed, ya know, back at square one, but today, I decided to go back to my Faves when it came to language learning, you are one of them, from morning to noon, I've been on Korean, and I feel great, I felt like that first time I was learning Korean, and watching this video, helped me break down certain walls, Thank you so much Lindie, you have inspired me, I'll definitely check Sponge mind, and Jonson was great, I enjoyed the tips, 린디씨 감사합다!!

This is very helpful. :) Even if some of it may go without saying, it definitely does help to be reaffirmed of the right things to do. Learning a language, especially during a pandemic, is inherently lonely at times. It's like going through a dark tunnel with no end.

Ashley thank you!!!

[@karinaddc6949]

17:24 Right! We all may like or others would try to sell us the 'native level'. Actually, when you start this deeper connection and immersion in language learning, you open your mind and this relation becomes intimate and individual. It depends on the contexts or people that surround you, culture, ideologies, etc to express this way or that way. We don't have to express as others will do. I think that the highest level is when we start to understand all those nuances and manipulate them as natives will do.

[@rae.......]

I remember having a lecture on German grammar and being like "this is a mountain I refuse to climb!!". Years went by, German faded out of my life and I am now learning Korean and I think that this perspective towards grammar is really useful. I think that I will use texts to learn grammar by reading something and then using my grammar books/notes as references. The more I see the grammar structures the less often I'll need to check for references - plus studying grammar is dead set boring and a huge roadblock! If this method works for me I think that I will eventually lose the mindset of thinking that something is not worth learning and progress in terms of having a greater variety of ways to express myself.

[@Armoaty]

너무너무 감사합니다! Ive been really confused about context of words and similar meanings. Thanks for doing this!💝

[@jktm7785]

The amount of words that have similar meanings or even pronunciation is also making it hard for me. When it comes to grammar, I never put this kind of filter in my head because I tell myself "I never know when I'll encounter this so it's better if I learn it." The biggest struggle for me is practising speaking. Hopefully I'll improve it at some point. I've been learning Korean for a few years now and I can also sense when something sounds awkward or not. Exposing yourself to the language is the best way. Despite everything, learning korean is really fun and I enjoy it a lot. I mainly do it for myself, I don't attend any classes so no rush and stress and I'm slowly improving.

[@megons6782]

Very good logical conversation.

[@jwkoreatv]

So useful video!!!! This will help Korean learners so much!!

[@fransmith3255]

That's exactly how I see learning Korean. I feel like I have a relationship with every single word. Every single word I am very slowly acquiring at a unique and different rate, in different ways, with a different relationship for each and every word. Some words come immediately without any work (RARE), (eg , 약 for medicine, I immediately related to yuck! in English, and it's funny, so it was almost spontaneous acquisition in some way), some words I related to the English when I first started (and I think this is the WORST way). Although I also learned 비지 by relating it to English. I'm Australian, so 'budgie smugglers' are men's underpants in Australian English (for hilarious reasons - google it), so 바지 was also easy to learn. 화장실, also an early word I learned, I tried to find Korean meanings to, so I looked up the individual syllables, so I ended up with 화 angry, 장 intestines, 실 room, together 'angry intestine room'. Of course, that's not right, but it was a great foundation for remembering the word. I still do this syllable relationship with every word I learn - I look for what other words I know with similar syllables. These days words are getting more and more easy, because I can mostly relate Korean words directly to other Korean words. Some of my relating might be imaginary (possibly made up by me to make some sense), some of it is correct. Either way, words are a lot easier to remember. Acquisition is the hardest thing for me. I'm probably impatient. I live here in Korea and I want to learn so that I can understand the Korean people I work with (I'm an English teacher) and in the community, and it helps with teaching, I want to be able to join in the chat and understand the jokes. And I'm over 50 learning my first language, so acquisition might be slow for that reason. Also I'm living in an area where the dialect is apparently more difficult (upper GyeongSangNamDo) - lovely old ladies often want to chat, and sadly I just can't understand them a lot of the time. And it's frustrating because it's a 'keep on listening, practicing, participating in the language and WAIT for it to get better' thing, essentially. THIS is the most difficult aspect of learning Korean, I think. 2 years of self-teaching and I'm only just NOW at the top of beginner stage, almost intermediate, but not quite - very frustrating. Although my grammar learning is ahead - about halfway through intermediate, so I've slowed grammar learning down for quite some time now, hoping my listening will catch up somewhat (and 90% of my study time - 2-3 hours per day -is listening, darn it!). The grammar etc is probably not easy, but it's not a particular problem, and learning words is getting easier because I'm learning them in a better way (HOW you learn words, I think, is very, very important! Learn them the wrong way and they take a LOT, LOT longer to go through the acquisition process!!). And these days I generally get my words from my environment (the kids/teachers/friends), rather than grammar books, so that also makes it easier (I have always avoided word lists because I realised at the start that they would not be the best way). Before I started learning I thought the SOV aspect would be the most difficult thing, but that turns out pretty intuitive, actually. The continual working at it with very little/slow improvement to show for your efforts, and not a lot you can do to speed up this 'behind-the-scenes' mental process, is the hardest aspect, in my opinion.

[@paulwalther5237]

This was a great interview! I liked the length - it was longer than most of your other videos and you even made subtitles for us 😊. In general I’m pretty bad at pronunciation. Generally my pronunciation slowly improves like Jonson said and if people try to correct me it doesn’t do much right away but slowly over time it gets better. An exception was the German R. I was just embarrassed by it. I sat down in my room in Berlin one summer afternoon by myself and just started making R sounds over and over and over. I moved the sound back in my throat making my tongue and throat move muscles and it never had. I had a painful sore throat for three days after that. But I had a more German sounding (a bit on the harsh side though) R in my arsenal after and never ever said the American R again while speaking German. I’ve never had this kind of pronunciation success ever again when anything ever. I had to share. I too hate korean grammar although the beginner stuff like subject or topic markers is no problem but anything in the Intermediate Korean Grammar in Use book makes my head want to explode. Do you think it’d possible to learn intermediate and advanced korean grammar patterns from reading and listening without studying it at all? Please say yes.

My personal struggle is the variety of untranslatable Korean adj/verb endings that differ only in nuance added to the root meaning of the word.

Sorry it’s off topic but DO YOU LISTEN TO KAZAKH MUSIC LINDIE? I’ve noticed Gakku TV which is our local music channel on 1:25 in your (or not your) subscriptions and was like WOW WHAT

[@LindieBotes]

Any tips for learning languages that aren’t as widely spoken/ don’t have May recourses? I’m planning on learning Yiddish, Duolingo is coming out with a course but that can only get you so far, I do have family who speaks it though

I'm learning korean since 2018 but I still can't initiate a conversation in korean without using papago to find the words I want to use in korean 😔
