THE 5 WORST LANGUAGE LEARNING TIPS!

[@LinaVasquezOfficial]

What is the worst piece of learning advice YOU have ever received?

[@alexanderbirdie2217]

Somebody told me: *"Spanish is the most easiest language, so you should learn it."*

[@ixymujin]

Alexander Birdie I agree tho 😂 if you only know English and that’s your native language then it’s going to be easier to learn Spanish first. Just me?

‘learn spanish. you’ll use tht. German and Norwegian are USELESS. they won’t help you in the REAL world’

[@The_Lord_Of_Confusion]

the dumbest advice I´ve read on some blog: 1) don´t learn for more then 15 minutes per day 2) don´t use authentic materials, stick only to the beginners textbook and nothing else 3) don´t learn every day, twice a week is enough 4) focus only on grammar, listening is not important 5) don´t expect to understand a native speaker any sooner then in 3 years this sounds more like a joke to me, but no, the author explained every point in detail, saying this was her experience with learning english (she is czech) ans so this is how it should work for everyone.. right...

[@ajanni2009]

1. is so true, literally everyone says to me "why are you learning russian, why don't you learn something more useful like spanish or french" - This is the most discouraging thing people say. They don't understand why you are learning the language, maybe you are learning out of interest or you are learning it simply because you want to.

Lots of love to you! 💕 Yes, the choices we make are there to serve us and should serve our passions and greater goals, no matter what they may be :)

[@Howtogetfluent]

Great advice, as usual Lena. The one about learning a "useful" language resonated in particular. I learned Welsh. Nearly all speakers above the age of about six are bilingual in English and there are only about 600,000 speakers altogether but...decades later, I still haven't got to converse with them all ;) and the language has probably opened MORE doors than my more widely spoken languages. So, folks, go for a language where you feel a need or a strong connection.

[@LinaVasquezOfficial]

Yes! That’s amazing Gareth!

[@darraghdonnellan6125]

Dr Popkins' How to get fluent True, as a semi-native Irish speaker I'm often asked why I put effort into "useless" languages and the most common statement I get is "They all speak English anyway". I dislike the quasi-obnoxious attitude that English should have a special privilege.

[@Howtogetfluent]

Yes....We need equal respect from the majority culture....

[@theinternationallanguagees9213]

“ save yourself the time , save yourself the trouble , you’re not going to succeed” BRUTAL!!! HAHAHAHA that was funny. Also filling in the gaps with grammar instead of intensively studying is some of the best advice i ever heard.

[@jeremyemilio9378]

The topic of grammar is not necessarily through,i am one of the weird one who learns a language in reverse,i learned nothing but grammar for the first 6 months when learning german before i even started input. For me ,i am grammar obsessed and will not sleep until i find out why a word is conjugated in a certain way or word order or say,akkusativ or dativ etc...

[@Jasav92]

I love studying the grammar as well when I start learning a new language

[@masteringfluency]

I have noticed some people really do learn best this way. I wish it were me, but I need to hear how people speak it to truly absorb it.

[@mena376]

me too

[@Avtandil_74]

I think for German in particular it's necessary to put in time with the grammar, particularly in the beginning. I tried a soft approach for a long time with a lot of input, and I regret it. I tried Assimil, reading, Glossika and TV, and I found that I can understand a lot, but producing a correct sentence was almost impossible for me. I've started over using a grammar book and a lesson book in tandem, going through everything recursively, memorizing declensions, and it's paying off.

[@brendon2462]

@@Avtandil_74 Just copy and mimic native speakers. They already speak correctly. All languages have a certain way of saying something. Or a best way to say something. Eventually you will understand and get an intuitive feel for structure, word order, and grammar. Then you will be able to form phrases on your own. But, you aquire some grammar automatically and indirectly. Through massive input and exposure. The grammar is within the sentences.

[@missmatti]

Haha.. that first advice was what made me stuck FOR YEARS in even picking a language to focus on. I studied French in school and then I went to Barcelona and studied Spanish. Then I have barely used either language and "I didn't want to add another language to the mix" and then I tried to strategize which language of the two that was most useful "Spanish is the second most spoken language in the world" "But French is an official language in Canada" etc. A week ago I decided to study... Korean! I cannot remember since when I have been so excited to learn a language ever and immerse myself into Korean culture! 🤗

[@margueritedepompadour7031]

I just love grammar. I always want to understand why a sentence is a way or another before I learn it. Therefore it doesn´t have to be a mistake to learn much grammar in my opinion. You just shouldn´t force yourself to learn much grammar if it demotivates you

[@AfroLinguo]

Yeah! I think you are right. Grammar is quite important if you don't wanna sound stupid when speaking. When I was learning German, I was doing a lot of essay writing and this forced me to learn the grammar rules in a fun way. How do you generally learn grammar?

[@AfroLinguo]

@Tim 0341 Ah. Ok I see. Wow! She is really smart. How about you? Do you like take language classes, or do you also learn by just trying to use the language?

[@heatheranneultimatetravela2264]

Thank you!! Finally someone who isn’t saying “why are you learning Pashto instead of Spanish?!” The one worst tip I keep seeing over and over is “You can only learn one language at a time.” Around the world kids in schools are learning multiple languages at a time as the norm. And I get burned out on, and bored with, one language if I study it exclusively. I prefer to learn at least 3 at a time!

[@bravegirlarise7672]

Thanks Lina! I used to be very grammar focused in school. I studied Spanish in high school and university. One of my classes went to Mexico for 10 days, and we were to only speak Spanish as much as possible. My confidence and conversational skills improved by the end of the trip. However, after returning and not having to speak it as much, I felt I lost that progress because we went back to "textbook" speech and not every day speech. Now that I quit focusing on grammar, my progress with learning other languages has improved greatly. When I told a family member I'm learning German, they asked, "Why? Do you know someone from Germany?" 😕 I have several reasons for learning it, but I didn't realize I needed to know someone in order to want to learn it. 🤣 I love learning other languages in general. I would've learned more early on but was encouraged to stick with Spanish because it's more "useful" in the U.S. I'm glad I found your channel! 🤗

[@diyaelizabeth13]

I'll need them for work, technical engineering stuff too. I respect all languages, I wish I could speak literally every single one. People are so fking wonderful, we could all sit down and have dinner and laugh. Someday maybe.

I'm learning Polish for no particular reason. I just wanted to learn a Slavic language but I don't like Russian so I chose Polish. Whenever Poles ask me why I'm learning Polish I always come up with a BS excuse like "my bf is Polish" or something like that

[@getalife214]

Everything I see online contradicts itself and at this point I am just finding what works best for me. Hablo español y inglés con fluidez, pero estoy aprendiendo al menos tre más porque la cultura no me interesa. Bijvoorbeeld, leer ik nederlands te spreken. Het is mijn favoriete taal, maar ik kan het niet goed spreken. Mi siguiente idioma más avanzada es el esperanto. Mi pasigis 2-3 semajnojn studante ĝin intense, sed mi ne multe zorgas pri ĝi. Espero que en el futuro me enseñe el ruso, el rumano, el noruego, y el indonesio. Corrígame si hiciera un error en cualquier idioma. It feels wrong to consider myself a polyglot because I'm still discovering what works for me and what doesn't. I've already ruled out all of these tips except for the grammar one, simply because I like to have an understanding of how the language differs from my other languages. Finding connections to my other languages helps me out tremendously. That doesn't mean I learn it from the start, though. I haven't studied Dutch grammar because it's close to English, which means I just picked up any small differences automatically. So relieving to find an actual polyglot confirm that I'm not making a mistake by ruling out terrible advice.

[@MelissaJetzt]

You can't speak until you've listened. You can't write until you've read. The first step of language acquisition is input. You can certainly try to output as you go, but don't expect much. A ton of polyglots make videos of them learning a "new" language that's in the same family and it looks like they've done an incredible feat right away. It gives people unrealistic expectations. I wish more of those KZbinrs would be transparent about that.

[@Mellyouttaphase]

You absolutely rock! Thanks for another great video :)

[@chvhndrtntlr3482]

Worst advice: - speak immediately on first day, good but it will be the best if you listen a lot and read alot first so you really make a meaningful sentence or phrases, do it immediately make you building grammatically bad sentence or phrases - don't use bilingual sources because it makes you growing habit to always translate it to your native language

[@AZ-ty7ub]

Disagree on the second one. I use bilingual resources frequently and find them quite helpful- it gets me acquainted with the way the language is actually used and I've never had an issue with it causing me to translate it in my head. Guess it just depends on the person.

[@GloriousDestiney]

2:10 exactly i went to a school to learn french 2 years ago and i didnt learn much i could still go back but i decided not to my mom always asked me “why are you learning chinese? Learn french its more useful for you” or she says “learn spanish its easier” well i dont feel attached to french when i learn it, it doesnt make me excited plus its a bit hard for me chinese is easier than french in my point of view, as for why not learn spanish?, well spanish is indeed easy i once tried it for a day it was simple but the only thing that makes me prefer chinese more is because im more into chinese culture and language and it may be hard for other people but to me its pretty easy, not everyone finds chinese easy and not everyone finds french hard it just depends on that person.

[@mchobbit2951]

For me, it would be any kind of flashcard/anki overuse/reliance. Like the advice that complete beginners should do only flashcards and prononciation practice, no textbook, no native material, nothing else. It just sounds like the perfect way to discourage people. Another one I heard? You should put every word, phrase, grammar concept you don't quite understand in a book, movie etc. into anki. That would absolutely kill my desire to read and watch anything and leave little time to read and watch anyway. You are just constantly making and reviewing cards. Also, I don't think everything you encounter will be so important that you need to learn it by heart. If I forget the verb for "to give birth to a lamb" or the French word for "junebug", it just REALLY doesn't matter all that much. If it comes up again in a book, I can look it up again. If it comes up in a movie, there will be clues. And eventually I'll either learn it or not. Personally, I love grammar so I don't find it boring whatsoever. Yes, you can overdo grammar and if you already dislike it to begin with, too much focus on grammar can be disastrous. Even someone like me can get to the point of overdoing it and getting frustrated with certain grammar concepts...that's usually when I know that it's like to step away from grammar and just read, watch and listen for a while.

[@migueltrujillo8929]

When I started reading in German I would write down every single unfamiliar word that I came across, look it up and put it into anki. And then I would review anki. That lasted all of three weeks. I found reviewing anki and flashcards in general to be counterproductive as A) I was having to review too many words, most of which were unimportant B) I was reviewing the words out of context and C) I just hate reviewing flashcards anyway. I just found that just straight up reading and looking up words as needed, that I would quickly learn which words were indeed worth committing to memory as they'd keep reappearing in the text frequently enough. As for less frequently occurring words that I felt were worth committing to memory, I would just make a list of a few words or interesting phrases (no more than like five maximum at a time) and review them throughout the day. And sure enough, I found that just doing that was enough to increase my reading comprehension (to the point where I was reading comfortably through advanced-level books in a matter of months). At the end of the day, it comes down to learning in a way that you find interesting and engaging. It might not be the most scientifically effective learning method out there, but at the end if you are making progress and having fun at doing so, then it is the best way for you.

[@jamestribble7644]

I think you should start with grammar but not like complicated grammar something like basic sentence structure is something you should start with so you “no speak like Tarzan “

[@ВладиславШевченко-с8р]

Well, for me personally Being able to talk to as many people possible is the goal whenever I choose which languages to learn the first thing I think about is weather ill be able to speak this language. Because a really bad thing happened to me once. I learnt a language to A2 and found that not a single person wants to speak the language with me and switch to either Russian or englisch. And that was a really frustrating and unfortunately a deal breaking experience for me. So I learn languages only if im 100% sure I'll be able to speak them after ive learnt some

Yeah, croatian language is pretty big challenge, especially for the Asian guys coming from countries with no grammar languages. But at least it's not tonal and we have only 30 letters :D there's some strange things going on with the noun endings in Croatian depending on the role of the noun in the sentence and yeah, so many words we share with the Russian but some of them have totally different meaning so you need to be careful about that ;)

[@wypimentel]

The first advice comes from people of the Country the language is spoken, I don't speak Irish, but I said to some Irish friends I would learn it, they said "Why on Earth are you going to learn it?!", and after some months there (Ireland) I understood why they said that, the Irish Language is almost restricted to transit plates, almost no one speaks Irish nowadays (exception to some cities), their knowledge of it is of a 3 years old child.

[@Sakura-zu4rz]

Wowo, Thank you very much for sharing your information and thoughts. I have a frustrating experience.

[@caller145]

The grammar one... yeah I have experience learning that way. English is a second language for me. I had to in school since the third grade... but at the time I wasn't motivated to actually learn so I just did what I had to as homework. A lot of grammar and lists that I had to learn. Didn't help that my own language is very different to english. Well my grades went down.

I have to disagree about grammar not being important.

Without a foundation of basic grammar, word recognition and meanings would be more difficult to learn.

ANY reason is a good reason! leave me and my old fairy tales alone please 😭 also that i can't learn several at once. excuse me, i have adhd (y'all know how it is with that cyclical burnout), so i cant put all my energy into something too quickly and too much or else i'll lose motivation, and im flourishing rn, so boom! casually proving you wrong

Also, you can go to language exchange gatherings to meet other language learners like you and practice. Such meetings can be found on the App called Meetup.

Other bad advice is not to translate to your native language.

I have to strongly disagree with the "useful" aspect of learning languages. When people give this particular advice, What they mean is; learn a language that you are going to use. It doesn't matter if the language is popular, if it is spoken by millions of people. What really matters is; if you will never have the chance to use it, What is the purpose of learning it. Cheers.

I kinda see your point. Yes the language should be something you can get an use out of. But too many people mistake that to mean just job opportunities and such. And the thing is, it's easier to make a language you can speak useful if that makes any sense. I learned english because of memes. I had to study it in school so I didn't start from zero but until I started to scroll through the internet I wasn't really able to have conversations and so on. I didn't even want to learn english, I just scrolled through my daily dose of memes and learned by accident. Then I met a guy who doesn't speak my language so we communicate in english. Very useful. That wouldn't have been possible if I didn't know english. When you learn a language new doors open for you. Yeah I know that it's easier to reach those doors if you live in a foreign country for example, and if you learn a small language on the other side of the world.. not so much. It would be a lot harder to make that language useful for you in your daily live... but at least you can understand more memes if that's what you're into
