Inspired thoughts, well presented! 🎉
Great advice
The best language learning video I've seen. I have pretty much watched them all too. Most people talk techniques, resources, and things like that. I never seen one from the broad perspective of how language fits into our lives, what it is, and our thoughts about it. I actually started with the "this will be easy" attitude, and lately getting discouraged and thinking it's been years now learning danish and i still get lost speaking to natives sometimes. Thus, I've been thinking screw it, I'll never get fluent. You just renewed my motivation to keep working at it. Thanks
This really means a lot to me. Thanks so much! You made my day hahaha
I am monolingual in my first year of university majoring in French and German, and minoring in Spanish. Most tell me, I am insane. 😅. That said my university teaches language learning through flipped learning and I am finding it to be an excellent teaching method. The responsibility of learning the language needs to be on you and your dedication to learning it.
"El que mucho aprieta poco ahorca"
Couldn't agree more! You aren't insane, the challenge will definitely make something great of you, regardless of whether you ''make it". also those languages are fairly connected so you'll find yourself doing a lot of repurposing, which really helps.
By the way, what is flipped learning exactly?
Thank you for the information and the motivation to start learning again! So perfectly stated and i loved the memes 😊❤
Thanks ❤ I'm really glad you liked it!
Feel free to let me know if you are interested in any language in particular for future videos :)
I'm so glad to found this video. Thanks so much. I'm learning English everyday and It's still so hard to me. Your video was quite difficult to me understand, but I'll never give up.
I'm glad it helped :) Keep going! you are doing great!
Espero ver vocês no próximo vídeo. 😉
One of the best videos on this topic I have ever watched. Languages on Fire, you are really burning 🤗😂! And in my opinion, learning a new language is like opening a new door which was closed before. Even if you do not enter the new room/house/garden/path/mountain/cave/... (= if you stay at a beginner level or just learn the script/alphabet or the pronunciation), you can still take a look at this new world and be amazed and enjoy the view. Really a new world view if you take a closer look.🥰😇
We are glad you liked it! Definitely, it is incredible how much you can feel connected to a distant culture just be getting to understand even just a bit of their language. How they say I love you, a song, a poem, greetings, their writing system, some common expression... :)
underrated channel
Me nodding along feeling empowered after misconception 1. Existential crisis after misconception 2 😂
I loved this video and the way you communicate! Subbed!
Really appreciate it! It's important to have a good balance of confidence and patience with the process :)
I just subbed, very good video
I really appreciate it! Thanks :)

I'd love to see videos about greek. It seems to me like there are next to none to find on here. :-)
We'll see what we can do! :) Thanks for the input
i am learning japanese and tagalog
also good video men keep up the work
Got some great resources for learning Japanese :) Will make a video about them sometime. Thank you!
Enjoyed the video. Nag-aaral ako ng Tagalog. My brother and his family live close to Manila, and I thought it would be fun to learn. Get me out of my comfort zone.
Definitely a challenge but I'm sure they will really appreciate it :)
I would like to learn greek , please let me know of the best course to apply this goal or any advice.
If in doubt choose Assimil :D
But people say that’s another misconception: it being about the perfect course or method, but what matters more is committing to language learning…
I agree! Sometimes just getting on with it is the way to go!
I used shows and flashcards mostly for Greek but I was also very lucky to be surrounded by many Greek and Cypriot friends. :)
Scottish Gaelic to learn more about my heritage
That sounds challenging haha! But I'm sure it is amazing :)
I am currently trying to learn Spanish
We have material for Spanish and we will soon start releasing content specific for Spanish learners :)
I got curious to know your mother language
Spanish! Born and raised in Madrid :)
@@languagesonfire2796 I'm English and I chose to learn Spanish in secondary school but the way we were taught killed all my motivation to learn languages which I've only recovered recently. Now, I'm learning German but I think I'll give Spanish another try at some point.
2,000 hours of comprehensible input
Maybe that will do the trick!
But I have realized that without much active practice my skills also fall short. Passive is great and is often overlooked, but it does not train your skills as much as I had hoped.
@@languagesonfire2796 yes definitely. Other active sources like reading and other resources help put the puzzle pieces together.
It's important to know that with comprehensible input, you will pass through a stage of receptive bilingualism, where you're able to understand a language fairly clearly, but not easily speak it. For instance, while learning Spanish, I read Don Quixote before I was capable of holding any sort of conversation.
Pero, en fin, eso es algo transitoria. Llegare algo tiempo en que los palabras del idioma en que estudias simplemente arrive en tuya cabeza como gotas en la lluvia. Esta probablamente occure mas despues que anticipas, pero del todo modo, occure.
In any case, the single biggest advantage of comprehensible input is just that it's vastly more enjoyable than other learning methods. For instance, last night I was up late reading a book in French. Would I have spent 6 hours straight doing boring exercises? No, I don't think so! 6 hours glued to a book where I'm excited to see what happens next is a completely different story. Same goes for watching movies, CZcams, etc. The key to learning a language is making it a fun activity that you can do in your leisure time rather than a chore. Comprehensible input can do that.
