Stick with comprehensible input and when you have digested enough you will automtically start speaking. That has been my experience. Because of subconcious mechanisms, language learning isn't as simple as, if you want to speak, practice speaking. Output uses the pattern recognition abilities establilshed by recieving comprehensive input. Trying to speak before you have digested sufficient input just doesn't work.

@@amala1406 I find it easier to write than to speak, because I have time to think about how to conjugate my verbs and what gender each word is (a real struggle for English speakers). However, I also find comment sections intimidating! How do you do with journaling - just writing for yourself? BTW - you definitely got your point across in your comment. That is pretty good for intermediate level English.

It doesn't have to be the same genre you want to write, especially at first.

I speak English natively, tengo veinte-y-cuatro años hablando Español, полгода назад я начал усиленно изучать русский язык, quattro mesi fa ho aggiunto studio dell’italiano in modo più casuale, und ich begann ungefähr drei Wochen später Deutsch. I have become an addict, and when I start getting mind-weary, I spend a few minutes studying something else. I’ve been alternating between Latin, Greek, Japanese, Hindi, and Hebrew, pretty much in that order. Language study has brought me so much joy, and studying more than one language at a time has kept it fun and new and engaging for me. It’s probably not the most effective approach for everyone, but I find myself really enjoying it. Quiero desear a todos Ustedes lo más éxito y gozo posible en sus esfuerzos lingüísticos. :)

I believe there is a point where, if you get to pass it then learning a language becomes easier. What I have found is that, after the second language the next ones I manage to comprehend and to assimilate them faster, because I find similarities... It's amazing how many people can't get to achieve another language with all the tools available today!! when I started learning languages around 40 years or so ago, there was no internet. So everything was by the book, with a teacher and learning was as slow as a snail, but after all I could learn two languages... thank you for sharing!!

One thing I learned by reading Edgar Schein was that we need to access our ignorance in order to obtain knowledge. Lydia is the perfect example of it to me, she is probably the most skilful person I've ever seen discussing language learning and it is possible to perceive that she has talked to many people and deepened into how other people learn languages. More than the advice she gives, it is very useful to pay attention to what active listening can do to you. It can turn you into a better person, who contributes to society in many ways.

One motivation is the find the people first and then learn the language. I have started learning languages because of people that live in my community. For example, the person working at the Chinese restaurant. I start just by asking them how to say "Hello, how are you" in their language and then I learn a little on my own and come back practice what I learned and ask for more phrases.

actually, you don't have to speak a lot to learn to speak a language. Speaking english didn't help me learn english at all, the period during which I was making the most progress i basically didn't speak to anyone. learn the phonetics in the beginning, go through a textbook or two, and then just consume large amounts of content you enjoy. At some point you start thinking in the language and from that point speaking becomes easy and it makes sense to polish your skills in actual conversation. feel free to check out the All Japanes All The Time aproach (which is not as specific to Japanese as it might sound) and the Mass Immersion Aproach, both helped me a lot, maybe they will also be useful for anyone reading this

Define your goals clearly: It's important to have clear goals and know exactly what you want to achieve. This will help you create a plan and stay motivated. Create a system: Create a system that works for you. This can be a schedule, a checklist, or a daily routine. The key is to create a system that is easy to follow and helps you stay on track. Make learning a habit: Learning should be a habit just like any other activity. Incorporate it into your daily routine and make it a part of your lifestyle. Track your progress: Keep track of your progress to see how far you've come. This will help you stay motivated and focused on your goals. Focus on one thing at a time: Don't try to learn too many things at once. Focus on one thing at a time and master it before moving on to the next thing. Stay motivated: Find ways to stay motivated, whether it's through rewards, accountability partners, or reminding yourself of your goals. Embrace failure: Failure is a natural part of the learning process. Don't be afraid to fail, instead use it as an opportunity to learn and improve.

It’s weird when you suddenly know words out of nowhere. I’m learning my first ever language that’s not English and I am only about a month into it and I am suddenly understanding words that I learned 3 weeks ago and then I can sort of guess what they are saying and at least 8/10 times I get it correct. Then when I get them wrong it somehow makes me go over mistakes and then it’s 10/10 all the time. It’s about filling gaps in my opinion. It’s tricky tho. It’s my first none fluent language i’m learning so it’s tricky to connect my brain to my tongue because I’m my mind I can say the phrase beautiful but in reality it is a big mess! I always end up swearing 😂 I’ll hopefully get better at it and not offend anyone.

I've heard you need to understand input before being able to output well, and that forcing your speaking before being able to listen and understand input is a waste of time and can actually hurt yourself because you are learning incorrect speech patterns and pronunciation. Thoughts?
@aprasovsky

Not exactly. You are talking about Stephen Krashen's hypothesis, but there are several crucial points that should be clarified. 1 - It's a hypothesis, a theory. There's some evidence supporting it, but it is still not "the proven truth" about how language learning occurs. 2. The problem is not that you might learn wrong speech pattern or poor pronunciation - the problem with "early speaking" (again - according to Krashen's theory) is that our brain simply doesn't work that way. You can't and you won't speak well, until you accumulate enough input, until your brain processes sufficient amount of language in "passive", perceiving way - only then will you be able to produce language, fluently.

Listening goes first , always. This input is the foundation of all other skills. Passive learning such as vast reading and writting which teaches how to narrate stories and how to compose coherent narration in all times do for sure precede fluent speaking phase. One might try to skip those phases but in practice sooner or later needs to obey natural order of things in foreign language learning. Especially if one does need to reach real fluency. What always takes years. Fast track is possible only for very narrow scope of usage. For any serious job involving linguistic skills people do get tested on fluency of all skills anyway. In a very scrutinized way. So yes, it's good idea to learn languages but it's long term time investment. Saying this while revising and working towards 3 difficult C1 level exams in languages from one linguistic family. Sadly sooner or later any attempt at any time saving shorcuts ends with " let's not rush things and get down to serious work on this one aspect". As for your question- brain needs to atune to the sounds of a new language what takes human brain about a year of life each time when it happens. And it goes for just passive listening phase, with very rudimentary level of understanding the content of this input.

I enjoy listening to Lydia speak, and I agree with almost all of what she says. However, I am not convinced by her first point, which is that time is the only variable as regards how long it will take to learn a language. Surely efficiency comes into play. If a good method is twice as efficient as a poor method, then the time it would take would be halved.
@raynathompson
@raynathompson 4 жыл бұрын
That's true, but I think that every method works for someone, it's just difficult to figure out which one (or more) works *best* for you personally. It's definitely not helpful to jump around from method to method or course to course, because you aren't actually reaching the final levels that one teaches. You get stuck in beginner mode of a dozen various courses. BTDT Sometimes I think the do-it-yourself mentality and plethora of options available in our internet-connected world has made us perpetual chasers of something "more efficient" instead of settling down to do the work and put in the time. And I think that's part of what she was trying to convey in her presentation. Certainly, if you find what you feel is a more efficient course or come to prefer a certain method, you can recommend that to others.

Nice! I speak English and German, I'm learning Japanese and Spanish now :) I'm learning both, but I'm putting more time into Japanese because it's much more difficult than Spanish. I'd say it's a 80/20 split of my time.

Why not use a calendar or diary? Just mark the minutes and what you did. 10 minutes reading text, 15 minutes listening to podcast, 5 minutes writing vocabulary, 10 minutes flashcards, etc. You can even write it in a plain notebook, or use a note taking app like Google Keep. Or use a spreadsheet so you can add it all up. Make it easy enough to do daily, but giving enough feedback to keep it interesting to do.

Just try to get exposed to your target language as much as possible. Try to watch videos in your target language on a daily basis. It will work wonders after a while.

Why do so many people quickly become fluent in English? Its my native language, ,and Ive witnessed people going from zero to fluent in two years in Chicago. I've been to 94 countries and lived in dozens, and I rarely meet any expat who has become fluent in those languages. Is English just very easy? Is it because theyve been exposed to English all their lives before taking up learning the language?

Many young people in Western Europe listen to English music. So you cannot practically avoid English when you switch on the radio. There are many cultural pull factors that enhance people's motivation to learn English. There is a general feeling that you are only "with it" when you understand the terms for the newest trends, which are all English(even though loanwords might change in their meaning sometimes). So all that leads to a massive passive vocabulary build-up, which often is enough for (very) basic communication. So even if grammar is not a person's strong point, some kind of pidgin will always come out. And this might indeed make learning the local language something some expats do not bother with... Of course there might also be another disadvantage in not having an obligatory foreign language course in the secondary education of some English speaking countries.
