I have learned best fully immersed in Ecuador or Peru during winters over the past four years. I have been reading Spanish newspapers for years with less rapid improvement.
Wow Olly! What a wonderful deep dive! Thank you so much!
It was great fun to make!
Lucy, I like you speaking Spanish👍👍👍
Precious woman !
Luccy!?!?!if u learned spanish at 18 yo,how old ru now🤔🤔🤔
@@mhrmhr3722 😂😂
We love learning English with Lucy, now we will love to learn Spanish with Lucy.... 🙂
Great idea!
How many of you have been caught by Lucy's charm? I bet millions of people are increasingly motivated to enhance their English thanks to her. She has a clear and charming pronunciation, she always shows us her best smile, she is very funny, she is talented, it is easy to fall in love with her channel! Thanks Lucy !! I'm a fan of you.
Good thing to know. I'm mexican so when I was in high school I suffered from bullying because I was a stutterer back then so everything I read or spoke in my native language (spanish) at school made me uncomfortable and I was being laughed at. I just realized this bad experienced helped me getting fluent with english. I immersed myself into the language since I wanted to escape from what I was living. I feel so thanful to the english language for embracing me. Btw I don't stutter anymore but I can stutter in spanish when I get nervous, I've never stuttered when speaking english somehow so I guess that's weird
Thanks for sharing
That's awesome! :)
@Seòras Gracias por compartir tu experiencia, es interesante y a la vez curioso como la tartamudez desaparece con la confianza o solo con hablar otro idioma jaja, Feliz año, saludos.
slow down when you t t t talk or just pause when you feel yourself stuttering and reset
stuttering is just your brain and mouth getting out of sync
Wow, i did not know that!!
Hey Richard, I love the way you structure your videos. Thanks for doing them
Love the video, thank you Olly!
I just watched this YT video after watching your 11 best YT Spanish CZcamsrs for learning Spanish. Lucy's story about how she learnt Spanish is very interesting. Motivation is key...along with other factors. I will check out some of your recommended Spanish CZcamsrs.
I think I'm in some sort of lack my skill in speaking fluently in English except listening or reading or writing it as I'm not a native speaker, (as you may predict with my name) so I've subscribed Lucy's channel somewhat 6 months ago, and her videos helped me so much to have better English skills, but today when I saw your video, Olly, I just got to know the most accurate methods or we say key points to have an accurate fluent speaking skill of the language which is not your mother language.
Thanks very much both Lucy MA'AM, and you, Olly, for guiding me to get me know how do I deal with, specifically for my IELTS exam!
Thanks again❤️
Love this video so much, thanks a lot, Olly!
This is Lucy, and Olly, at their best. They are such brilliant promoters of how to learn a language, getting it and working at it.
Wow it's beautiful how she said that she practiced fluency instead of perfection. I need to try that!! Thank you.
Excellent video! I quite feel the same that Lucy did with Spanish, but my case concerns about Finnish. Yeah, I fall in love for Finnish and I'm studying it really hard for now eight months. More than speaking I language, I do believe it's a matter of creating a new version of you, as Olly pointed out.
I learned English from movies and series mostly, I wasn't so lucky at school with languages. and now thanks to Lucy I managed to find English easier and funnier. I'm learning Spanish via Duolingo now.
thank you for sharing this, this is so inspiring.
This video hits every nail in the head. That's exactly how I learn languages.
I am freeking addicted to this series. 🕺
Thank you.
Glad you like it Leul!
Yes, can't wait for the next one
Ella es inspiradora y me da esperanza.
Great video Olly, really love the content and production of this
I think this is the way I learned English, less Immersion but more knowledge at home, I'm now 18 and people ask me where I'm from because I sound English but I still have a bit of an accent so I'm here to sort that out, but I am content with the level I have today I'm totally fluent and capable of writing reading and even improvising in English, but with more to learn I think I might pick up a few of your videos, for now I'm going to bed. Great Video, Love From Argentina
Loving this series Olly!
Cheers Shane!
100% true speaking a new language makes you feel like you get a new identity, it might even change your personality
One thing I find useful when studying a new language (I started learning Spanish in 6th grade back in 1962 - and I'm still learning snippets of languages as I approach 70 years old) is learning songs. I start by hearing the song and more or less parroting the words, then I go through it line by line, word by word, and try to grasp the literal and figurative meanings.
What a fascinating story! (Edit: I love the part about Lucy noticing things and the part about her not letting go. That’s what I want to do. If I don’t understand something or don’t know how to say something, I will not let it go!)
This is so cool! I love it 🙌🏼
Thanks!
Totally agree!! I'm absolutely pro to move a native country if is possible and go out...you will have to talk! I went to Paris when i was at the University and now i'm in Dublin...and my English and French move to another step! Even i weekly see Lucy's videos and learn. Nunca la había oido hablar en español, habla muy muy bien!!!
This video is really well edited 👌
Im currently learning Swedish (I speak German, russian and English, and German and English really helps with Swedish) and look what I found out:
Duolingo is actually not the worst place to start, especially if you're learning a language out of you're (I forgot what it's called) language group. If you already speak English, which is a Germanic language, and you wanna learn Swedish, which is also a Germanic language, Duolingo is so helpful. This also works with Romanic and Germanic languages, so if you speak a Germanic language like English, and you wanna learn Spanish, Duolingo is also a great place to start. If you actually take it seriously and do all the classes to max, you're actually gonna remember the words and grammar. Of course Duolingo can't teach you a language, but as a starting point it's great. It's kinda like you're playing a game. But if you rush it it's not gonna work.
Me ha gustado mucho tu canal.
Lucy is great! I still remember her stories about her friends and boyfriend in spain😝 she's funny, smart and talented.
Another compelling video. I'm still practicing french hoping to reach fluency as well.
Je te souhaite de parler français couramment!
@@damien5688 merci beaucoup 🥺
As a guitar player for many years I’ve seen so many parallels with learning an instrument to learning a language.
Repetition
Formulas (methodical approach to memorise rules)
Training your ear
Committing to learning both theory and playing by ear (classes and fun)
How dots connect without realising (muscle memory from repetition)
Learning to read and speak (observe others playing and respond)
Just some examples
Such a great insight!
That is true. While learning (a language or music) you develop the same skills. Rythm, tone, etc
The thing about Lucy-I watched a good amount of her videos, she's great-is that she's sounds so andalusian, so local, so in tune that you end up thinking she was destined-fate is not real, passion and dedication are-to speak Spanish with that amazing sevillian accent she has. The fact that she's capable of sounding like a genuinely funny andalusian woman is just so fun and amazing!
PS.: I'm from Sevilla and she's definately made me think "man, she's one of us" more than once...
I am Costa Rican and Canadian citizen, I speak fluently spanish and English but when I moved to Montreal, Quebec thought it would be a piece of cake learning French...It wasn't! For many many years I struggled to the point of becoming shy and insecure to the point of giving up. I even learnt more Italian in the process (Italian friends). Sometimes I think that the Quebecois culture is not very patient with newcomers but I shouldn't blame them. I love French and quebecois French is so charming...Hopefully I get some good hints from your cool channel. Thanks
This was me! I was just like Lucy, although I didn't start until I was 18. I stared at uni on an accelerated course for beginners, and I was obsessed with getting good enough to be able to go to Spain for Erasmus. I definitely identify with the escapism and wanting to feel different. I also loved shocking people who couldn't guess I was English!
Impressive!,👍
I Love to learn spanish, It Just clicks within me! thank you for sharing this content.
I recently started learning Tagalog about 4 months ago. I wanted to communicate better with my coworkers (90% of the people I work with are from the Philippines) and even after only 4 months of steady studying 30-60 mins a day I’ve started noticing things “clicking” as I listen to the language spoken throughout my day. I find that the more words I learn and the more I start to “connect the dots” the easier and more fun it is becoming to learn. There’s even a few basic conversations I am able to take part in and understand. I have been struggling with “fluency” over accuracy, I find I’m spending to much time thinking about the proper way to say something instead of just saying it, would love to find some help in this area. I feel like learning words and breaking conversations down in my target language is working. But I also feel like I can be doing more to speed up the process
She's a great hearted person
amazing!!
I hope I’ll be able to have a story like this. I’ve been learning Spanish for 5 months and I can understand and speak a lot but I still have a looong way to go to get where I want to be. 😂
I am already learning Spanish. But Lucy also influenced me💝🇧🇩
I had a similar experience while stationed in Germany 88'-90'. I would go out with my soldier buddies, and none of them would try speaking German. I always had more fun, even if I made one mistake after another. I noticed that the German people treated me better for trying. I felt like I am in their country I WANT to try to speak their language.
I left Germany and moved to Italy where I started again, with only a phrase book. I practiced very hard, met my wife, and got the most out of my time in Europe.
I have been learning Spanish now for about 3 years, It is easier with the background in Italian (Verbs).
Great video.
When I learned Spanish in graduate school, I had the opportunity to spend pretty much all my non-studying hours with a group of people from the Dominican Republic (who were friends of a classmate's who knew them from his time in the Peace Corps). Maritza and her fellow students were SO accommodating and patient with my horrible Spanish.
But I kept at it. By the end of that first semester, I probably had more outside-class hours than any of my other Spanish-language cohorts. Like Lucy, my goal has always been having a conversation, not being 100% correct. So I would speak and make mistakes...and sometimes my friends would correct me and sometimes not. But it helped a lot.
Another thing I noticed was, years later, when I taught English as a Second Language. I was surprised to find that the mistakes my students made in English actually helped my Spanish...because just as I had "Anglicized" my Spanish at first, they had overlayed their grammar onto English. So if I heard something that was wrong in English, but close, I'd note it and then compare how you'd say it in Spanish. This helped tremendously, especially with word order in questions.
I love her this beautiful lucy 😍 she helped me lot to improve my english muchas gracias luc 🧚♀️
Wow! Great
The accuracy vs. fluency thing is something I see a lot. My dad and his friends are from Pakistan, some of them are more accurate than me in English and have more advanced vocabulary. While my dad and some of the others speak really simple, kind of broken, English, but are very quick and have good accents. It's really cool to think about this after watching this video.
"A new identity" with fluency happens in any case. I'm not sure if it's a new personality or a development of the personality you have that only comes out in the target language.
In my parallel universe, I'm fluent in Spanish.
It’s an awesome place, that parallel universe, isn’t it? 😅
Hello Olly
Thank you again for the inspiring video! I myself would rather choose sounding native than like a robot! I needed some inspiration to carry on with my language studies!
Baie dankie
Groete Christo
Do you usually speak Afrikaans?
I'm 16 n i (actually) just started learning english to bcm fluent in it ... like 9 months ago when i was 15 . I nvr really cared enough bout becoming fluent n i couldn't understand anything when i would watch an english movie or listen to english songs . I couldn't evn understand lucy at first when i started watching her videos evn tho she speaks so clearly.... so i started watching her nd other videos as well with captions . I wasn't actually planning to become fluent in English bt "it jst clicked" like u said n also cz i had nothing better to do during the whole lockdown n i didn't feel like studying jst after giving my 10th board exams ..........nd it feels really good to hear sm1 say " ur english is getting better n u kinda almost sound like a native speaker sometimes( not completely tho i haven't achieved thaaaat level of fluency) ..... Like lucy i was hell-bent too on not letting go of something that i couldn't get . It's kinda similar to Lucy's story apart from the fact tht she worked reaaally hard n i jst learn English at home, watching videos on youtube without evn moving a finger 😅 bt in the end all that matters is tht I'm trying nd it's actually made a difference . I could tell the difference b/w the accents n kinda know 2-3 accents myself n I'm aaalllmost fluent in English , not completely cz I've nvr really conversed with a native speaker n my english is not perfect , I make some mistakes here n there ( not so often now like i used to) bt I'm hoping that I'd reach there one day 😊
Converse with me if you want?! You’re English is great! Maybe just don’t abbreviate as much
@@Khapresha thanks nd I'll keep that in mind from next time😊☺️
Thank you from Colombia Olly
She is brilliant, I’ve watched half of her videos despite being an English native!
Me, too! And I'm American. Funny, isn't it? (I know a lot of men like to watch her simply because she's gorgeous, but she's much more than that.)
What I would *love* is an interview with Lucy where she explains how she comes up with her teaching methods. Because (as far as I can tell) she never studied ESL pedagogy; she seems to have her own ideas, and then researches them and creates a video. She *is* brilliant!
@@LauraMorland
😂😂
Yeah.
Me too!
When I was that age I learned English as my second language. I didn't think about vocabulary, grammer, or learning strategies. I just wanted to understand what John Lennon or Robert Johnson were singing. Later in life I improved my English by reading Harry Potter because the German translations were not available and I wanted to read the books as fast as possible. - Now, much older, I learn Spanish as a student (because I live in Spain) and it is so much harder, even as I listen to spanish music and read spanish books. I'm afraid of making mistakes while speaking. Speaking English is like a second nature for me these days and I'm not afraid of making mistakes. - So learning a language as a teenager is imho no problem as long as one really wants to learn the language. All the people I know that lived in a foreign country with a different language as teenagers learned that language and are still able to communicate in that language.
I spent a year in France as a student, radio was a massive help, as was just sitting in cafés listening … but the one thing I found that improved the most was my accent/willingness to make mistakes - some of which were epic 🤔
The smoothest transition into "like, subscribe and turn on notifications" ever :)
I’m trying hard :)
I really like studying languages by myself too. I am 14 and I speak 3 languages: English(fluently), French(started 6 months ago but I can speak quite well) and portuguese (my 1st languague)
Being Portuguese should give you a "leg up" into French. In my opinion, Portuguese is closer to French than Spanish is.
When I was studying Portuguese in Porto, I kept annoying my teacher when she was explaining a grammar point to me, and I'd respond, "Oh, it's the same in French!"
@@LauraMorland Hey, we met here again. 😃😃
Yeah, but Italian is the closest language to French.
Btw, are you learning any language ?
@@LauraMorland Most french expressions can be translated to portuguese in the literal meaning. I still think english helps a little more cause' the pronunciation is closer and the way the languages are written can be more easy to understand when translating
Olly! You should 100% do JJsays. She's amazing
The thing is her Mandarin tones are off a lot.
Me encanta lo de "puedo ser otra persona" concuerdo mucho con eso.
Lo que me sucede con el inglés es que mi discurso es muy “emprendedor” haha supongo que es porque en inglés me la paso escuchando contenido de desarrollo personal y cosas así.
Cuando hablo en español sobre eso, me siento extraña, pero cuando hablo en inglés de emprendimiento o de desarrollo personal, siento que todo fluye muy bien ¡Es súper extraño! Gracias Olly por hacer este video, me pareció que resumiste muy bien la entrevista con Lucy destacando los puntos clave y emotivos. Gracias, Lucy😊 por compartir tu experiencia.
Exacto, a mi me pasa que cuando hablo en ingles voy al grano de lo que quiero decir, en cambio con el español puedo tardar mil años en decir lo mismo. Creo que un segundo idioma te hace sentir que sos otra persona muy distinta
I'm here as her student 😍😘💙💙
you should link your podcast episode with Lucy. I had to search and click through 7 pages to get to the full podcast episode before finding it.
I *really* wanted to see the entire interview, but Instagram was trying to make me sign up for an IG account (no thanks), or connect through Facebook (don't want to open that Pandora's box either). :-(
O grande desafio é aprender sozinho. Tendo uma lição online aqui e outra ali. É difícil quando nem o professor suporta seus erros de gramática. Mais difícil quando você tem algumas necessidades mais urgentes depois dos trinta. Mas o importante é perseverar. I can understand you, I think it's a good start.
In a world dominated by the english language I find amazing how some native english speakers have the will to learn a new language so good, this is rare props to you Lucy!... but why is that perhaps, when it happens the other way around is not so impressive? verdad? por eso a todos los hispanohablantes que lean esto y aprendieron ingles a los ventitantos y hoy en dia lo dominan, god job! :) you deserve a beer
Thank you. Yes, the desire and possible opportunity to be different, after living most of my life here in South Africa.
Hi Olly, I believe we have here some good ingredients for a language learner: attitude... fundamental; opportunity... to use the language. And if opportunity doesn't come your way, attitude has to make it happen.
After 10 years of unsuccessfully learning English in school i finally became kinda fluent in English when I was 16, after a few months of watching Game of Thrones. I started watching TV shows in English for the first time in my life and the first one was Game of Thrones with English subtitles. At the begining I was pausing almost every frame to read the subtitles and understand what they were saying. Sometimes I didn't understand a word and I wourd Google the meaning. With time I had to stop less and less and I didn't need to search for words anymore, cause I already knew the vocabulary of the show. I started watching other shows and then you tube in English when there were no subtitles yet. My English lebel skyrocketed in the first few months, I feel like I became fluent in a few months. It's been five years, my lebel has improved of course, but I feel like the big change from not fluent to fluent happened in a few months
Great trailer for this interview 😆
Any native English speaker who has learned a foreign language to fluency is a superstar.
There's really not many.
So impressive since we are really far behind other nationalities.Most young Europeans speak 2-3 language nowadays.
It’s extremely disappointing how superior America claims to be, but we aren’t in the important things.
It's kind of funny how you get the impression that most people are amazing at foreign languages because that 8s all you see on CZcams. The very few Americans who bother to master a foreign language do it because they have talent and passion. You don't really need to master a foreign language in the USA to get ahead. If you did, more people would learn.
XD
Attitude > method is gospel of language learning
Amen to that!
Escapism & identity shift definitely a thing with total immersion language learning.
Super interesting, would u do one with ikenna?
What have I found interesting in Lucy’s journey? The fact that she got to live in Seville. I’m Jamaican and I did French for 6 years and didn’t look at it anymore for about 7. But now I want to travel and maybe live in France for a little while so I’m trying to become more fluent, but it’s so hard 🤦🏾♀️
Hi! Try Français avec Pierre ! Pierre is the best CZcams teacher of French! (And he happens to live in Madrid.) Just search on CZcams for it. I'm fluent in French (I'm an American living in France), but I still watch his videos because they are so entertaining, and I always learn some little point I had missed along the way.
You did French for 6 years? Awesome!I've been studying Spanish and French since I was 14 years old. My Spanish is fluent and my French is advanced, despite never formally sitting either language at school. I only studied on my own, talking on apps etc. My accent is Colombian Spanish and Caribbean French. Go for it!
@@Lava_splash seriously, you’re an inspiration. I would love a Jamaican that I could talk to in French from time to time. My instagram is @the_crystaljems. I would really appreciate being able to talk to you
I like lucy's learing journey
Please, return the program English with Lucy in usual format. It was the best way to lean fluent English!
Of course she will. This was a one-off.
Lucy !!Awesome, Amazing, Dashing, ⚘💚🕊
Bewildering, fascinating, stunning, unforgettable, striking!
@@storylearning yes 👍
Is this video about how Olly Richards from being a fan of Lucy fell in love of her? 🤔
I like how she was talking about a formula, I think it was Noam Chomsky that talked about the science of a language. If it's a science then there has to be formulas and equations, and there are definitely that in a language, especially Spanish. I love being bilingual.
Hi Olly, I was wondering if the meeting was on zoom?? and whether you recorded it as usual?? or Lucy has used a separate camera and then sent the video to you??
Thanks in advance, this will help me a lot if you answer my questions.❤❤❤
Yes, it was on zoom. Normal recording.
Wonderful comments on the psychology of foreign language study...never heard this from anyone else
I have been working day and night to improve my English language fluency for ages. I am actually getting better by the day but I am facing a lot of challenges from most people around me; discouraging me by ridiculing or making fun of me or even sometimes mimicking me. They said I sound stupid trying to sound like the native speakers. This is not encouraging at all. I am literally shutting everybody out. Word of advice, please.
Sorry to hear that. It’s really important to find a group of “safe people” who you can practise with regularly. Language exchange, study group, Italki tutor, community events, etc. I suggest trying hard to find people like this.
Sometimes you can't tell people what your hobbies or goals in life are cause they are to narrow minded and can't think big enough. Just keep on doing what you're doing and be proud of yourself. Seek like-minded elsewhere instead.
@@experimentingme7669 thank you bro, I appreciate.
His Spanish is sooo good. And it's weird, normally British people are reall lazy to learn spanish, even when they are livimg there. the effort Lucy did is uncommom and extraordinary, a good example that everything is possible.
Having a natural talent for languages likely helps as well.
I always seen lucy bella videos
Good my teatcher Locy
I totally get and relate to Lucy, I’m in the thick of it but with German..
I think some of these reasons match mine to be fluent in English but I didn’t realize till watched this video
I have always wanted to speak British English!
It's amazing when an English native speaker achieve to speak Spanish with a native-ish accent like Lucy, Superholly or Grengasho.
Just bought your book short stories in Spanish
This reminds me a little more of my own learning style
I'm still new to learning spanish, but I studied accents before I got interested language
So I'm used to paying a lot of attention to a speakers mouth
But I try to stick to speakers in video to make it less awkward
My trick to learning Spanish is being born to a Spanish speaking family and in a Spanish speaking country.
Speaking Tagalog in the Philippines is like being a movie star. The thing is though the place stops being foreign that glass tank feeling just goes away. I kind of think of the Philippines as another county of England.
I live in Mexico but don't have the opportunity associate closely with people so as to make new friends to practice español so I make a point of stopping pretty much anybody and ask, "disculpe, dónde está la oficina de correos?" and then ask a lot of follow up questions. Good fun.
It won’t fool me. I still catch that hint of Spanish in my proud British big sister after more than 50 years with a full life the UK…just to irritate her with by Spanish bluntness… but she knows I love her 😁.
Well if you have followed her she dated several Spaniards while living there. So she truly immersed her self into the culture. Now because of the path she employed in achieving language and culture fluency I’ve recommended to others CZcams people adjusting to life in Spain directed to her channel. I was going to send this to her, but you might be a better option. So I’m from the US and it is a verbal aphrodisiac when we hear the Irish, French and the UK accents spoken. So I’m watching a HBO series with a British and Irish cast. However, I’ve decided to watch the dubbed Spanish version, since I can understand it as well. But I wanted to see how different the translation might differ. It’s pretty spot on to the English version, however what it’s missing is the Irish and English accents I’m accustomed to hearing. I would like to hear an English and Irish person be the person dubbing the voices in Spanish to maintain the flavor of their native tongue. Lucy went total Castillian, but I’d prefer the Andusian pronunciation from southern Spain. Why I bring this up, because I once saw a young Korean female panhandling at a fast food restaurant speaking in English and in fluent Spanish. The combination was impressively beautiful to watch and hear. She maintained her native Korean accent while speaking Spanish. She was a non native English speaker. I almost applauded for her flawless performance. Had I thought of it at the time I might have recommended that she go into becoming voice over actress for movies and animation. That job occupation income would provide her a better lifestyle and work environment.
Thanks for then interesting anecdotes!
It's impressive! She learnt the hardest Spanish there is, Spanish from Spain! I speak Spanish and I find it hard! I need subtitles! They speak fast! It's weird. I love it.
I mainly watch Spanish films/series/CZcams from Spain, with a decent level of understanding. Whenever I watch someone from Latin America (apart from Argentina and Chile) I’m absolutely shocked at my increased understanding
@@Scott_Raynor 🥰Well done! I love that you love Spanish!
@@AndreaAvila78 me gustaría viajar a España en el año que viene para practicar mi español! He estado estudiando la lengua desde hace 1 año, y cada dia estoy mejorando. Es una lengua y una cultura buenísima
@@Scott_Raynor 😀❤️Me parece una idea excelente! Vas a aprender muchísimo en tu viaje a España. Yo no conozco ese país. Espero poder visitarlo algún día también. 🥰 Me encanta el acento español.
Sorry, but it is not the same when you try to speak the language in a Spanish speaking country where people embrace you even if you make mistakes. Other story it is amongst English accents. They ignore you and think they are superior. Nasty way of being from their behalf . So different! That’s why for so many people learning Spanish is a beautiful journey.
this is soooo true
Indeed !!
You teach me English and I can help you with your Spanish. I am Spanish native.
Want to practice?
She has a very good accent I swear to God If i know her i didn't know it was a English Speaker to Speak you to get used to different vowel 5 in total has different sounds in English and some consonant sound a little bit different like T, B, V, P, K, D, i would say that it would be weaker than English
My goal is to learn Spanish before I become 18 this year. Hoping 😭
Lucy's partner should do a deep dive into Spanish language and both should only speak Spanish at home from now on. That way you can communicate with the world online and during planned visit overseas. It gives you future opportunities, for example retiring in Spain or South America and do sustainable farming or tourism etc overseas.
I don't want to speak in Spanish , I need to talk with the people in English. It is all. I am pleased to listen to Bella Lucy in Spanish "tiene su gracia" ( she's funny , nice , and attractive too) so too much handsome to be a teacher because their student does not listen to her speech, only look at her impressive smile. she is one of my favourite teachers. I shadow her.
don't matter I have accent in English like her spanish accent.
