    1. Set a start date
    2. Timeboxing: daily action plan
    3. Visualize: imagine yourself as a new language speaker
    4. One resource: don't keep switching between different resources
    5. No distractions: maybe stick to paper and pencil
    6. Handwriting: convert to digital later
    7. Pronunciation
    8. Experiment: after a few months, perhaps pick a different method. Different methods work better for different people.
    9. Language first, grammar later. 80% comprehensible input, 20% grammar.
    10. Keep a journal.

    Do you guys realise that the feats of this man are the result of a consistent and intelligent effort rather than pure genius (although he might be a genius), that he is a self-made person? So, please, instead of doubting when someone tells you greatness depends more on your will and actions, be open to consider it plausible. I see so much easy admiration and know that many many people choose not to believe something is possible for them. No, my dear friends, knowledge is more of a quest and not a delivery at our door. Keep up the good work, Luca!

    • @AfroLinguo
      @AfroLinguo Před 3 lety +12

      Exactly. So many people choose to label others a genius or a talented person so that they can feel comfortable not trying to attain the success this other person has attained. I believe that what is important is to just make that one is taking steps regularly towards one goal no matter how small and one day one will reach these goals.

      @crazygastrostories5380 Před 3 lety +4

      That's so true. Most of the people are quick with saying: "Oh, you have T A L E N T!" They don't understand that at least 90 % of the "talent" is hard work and possible for most of the people to obtain - when they are willing to commit a large amount of time and effort.

    • @miketimberland4850
      @miketimberland4850 Před 8 měsíci

      I only partially agree.
      I have attained a high level of knowledge and proficiency in many subjects only thank to a complete investment, dedication and hard work.
      I have taken this as an encouragement and a proof that I can reach the same level in other disciplines, if I put the same effort into it.
      Well, the result, after several years of constant hard work, is far below my expectation, which are themselves not particularly high.
      Intelligence and talent are innate.

      I'm learning German too but I'm trying to think in the mind of a child to get going with it - I was fluent in English before I went to school so how did I learn to speak English without books? By having constant audio exposure to it everyday. So what I'm doing is just having German videos, radio and films playing constantly so I pick up the sounds and meanings. It makes the unfamiliar familiar.

    What helped me with my German was the total immersion in the language and even the text books I had at the time were completely in German as well.
    Reading a grammar book in the target language might seem as an enormous effort, however one picks up the useful and correct vocabulary per default, because most of the grammar books come with the example sentences for the grammar points, hence it might be very beneficial for introverts and / or visual people. :)

  • @juancarloshernandezhernand7096

    Thank you so much Luca! That is a super organized way to learn the new target language. With the pronunciation I do the same as you which is to imitate from the very beggining the target language. Also, this method is excellent to improve those languages I usually study. Thanks.

    It's really difficult to stay motivated with so many distractions around but I started incorporating some of your ideas into my learning sessions and hopefully in a few months I will be able to see improvement in my language skills.
    I started learning Italian and European Portuguese and I enjoy watching short videos Easy Italian and Portuguese.
    Recently I watched your video from Poland and as a native I'm truly inspired how well you speak Polish.
    I always admire when I meet foreign people speaking Polish language as there are other, more popular languages.
    Undeniable fact about learning languages is that it gives us a different perspective for many things. It definitely enriches us as learners, we all can learn something from each other.
    Looking forward to seeing your next videos. 👍

    To minimize distractions, I use Chrome for language learning with all of the extensions installed, like LLY, and I use Safari for everything else, including the time-wasters. I close Safari an hour before my daily online lesson, and take it as a challenge to keep it closed as long as possible, hopefully all day. I keep my learning journal as a Google Doc, and my tutor corrects it with me every lesson. I write about current affairs as well as my language learning, which helps when I'm reading the news and gives me a chance to practice with some extreme, highly descriptive and comedic vocabulary depending on who I'm talking about 😉

    Thanks for the video. Your apportionment of learning time between 80% absorption of comprehensible input and 20% grammar study is wise, but strictly speaking it is not an application of the Pareto Principle. The Pareto Principle posits that the most effective 20% of your learning activities - whatever those may be - will deliver 80% of your language acquisition results (insofar as such things can even be quantified this way). Thanks again.

    I love this video! Many thanks to the author of the channel for the recommendations! The problem with many people is that they want to take a "magic pill" or get "secret knowledge" and immediately have skills and abilities. However, the truth of life is that knowledge, skills, and abilities do not come by themselves. You can't learn a foreign language without doing anything, without wasting your time and effort, just like you can't learn to ride a bike lying on a comfy couch, listening to lectures and watching videos about "modern methods of learning" on a bike. To really learn something, you have to really practice every day. You're going to fall down while you're learning, and you're going to get bumps - that's normal! The ups and downs of learning are an integral part of our lives. Motivation from success and depression from failure will always be your study companions. However, every student has problems in his or her studies that he or she lacks the knowledge to solve. It can be: poor memorization of words; no progress in language learning; the student can speak, but does not understand speech by ear; misunderstanding of grammar; incorrect pronunciation, etc. Agree that a problem you don't know how to solve is very demotivating. In order to find the answer to our question we have to spend a lot of time to read videos, articles and books by polyglots. In today's world, we have to solve problems as quickly as possible. I don't have time to study and analyze a huge amount of information. My goal is to master the basic knowledge of a foreign language as quickly as possible and already start earning money effectively in the international arena. I settled on the practical guide by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot's Notes: practical tips for learning foreign language". This book is always in my bag. If I have a problem while learning a language, I quickly find the answer in this book. There are many different techniques and tips for learning a foreign language in Polyglot Notes. I have made my own individual schedule and plan for language learning. Now I know what I am going to study, how I am going to study, when I am going to study and what results I am going to achieve. No problem could stop me! With an effective language learning plan my professional skills are more and more in demand internationally every day. Friends, don't stop there! Everyone has talents that millions of people around the world need! Learn the language and make your ideas and dreams come true! Thanks to the author of the channel for the informative and useful video! Your videos motivate me.

  • @NoemieY
    @NoemieY Před 3 lety

    Great tips! I've noticed you know/learn widely spoken languages, so how about "rare" ones? Because in terms of resources there're not much choices available out there, depending on the language. I've spent a few days trying to find ressources about Ossetian. Only got one learning book in French (which is my native language so great), a mediocre YT learning channel by a non native, a few movies and cartoons with & mostly without subtitles and few Russian websites with basics (I'm good enough at it for basics so that helps). So the hardest part is actually finding audio resources with comprehensible basic content. I'm going to check out that IPA website (you forgot the link btw), but maybe you know other platforms that have audio/videos in not so common languages to recommend?
    Keep up the great content! 👌

    Hi Lucas, thank you for this video. Your part about experimenting and putting language first then grammar sums up my journey and my daughter's to acquire Arabic for 3 years. I have been learning Arabic for more than 2 years part time. I did mainly to support my daughter's learning in school. Beginning of this year, her school has been very focused on too many grammatical structures. She came home crying and at the verge of giving up. My heart went out to her. I tried helping her but I became too grammatical focused to support her. So I finally caved in. I told her and myself not to focus on the marks. I told her its okay if she fails her Arabic this year. I wanted to make language learning enjoyable for her. I engaged someone through italki to talk to us individually and regularly. It was cheaper than hiring a tutor over here. And tutors here though mostly have studied in Middle Eastern countries are still not native speakers and third, they tend to focus on grammar the kids learn in school. Immediately, my daughter starts having positive attitude towards Arabic. The teacher is not only native and patient, she coaches each of us in speaking. Each of us will come prepared for our classes by learning our vocabulary and some understanding of a topic before we each have a conversation with her. My daughter's confidence soared. And she started thinking of questions and answers in Arabic. She is also very curious about her teacher who lives in Morocco. And she has so many questions about their lives there. It has been two full months but I can see the benefits. I too started talking more in Arabic these past months in my school as a result of my italki sessions. I no longer see getting As in exams our target but fluency in the language. I decide to give this 1 to 2 years more to see the benefits from this. My daughter and I are already planning a trip to Morocco to see our teacher. I realise that speaking and listening in the language gi

      If you made it over to Morocco, you would have quickly realized that the local spoken dialect of Arabic الدارجة المغريبية bears little resemblance to the Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) that is taught in U.S. classrooms. Of course, print media and news broadcasts are in MSA but, to interact with common people, you need to express yourself in and understand the dialect.

      @@richardcgs2001 Thank you for the tip. She is learning MSA to study the Quran, Hadith, formal texts and mass media. I had a cousin who studied Fusha first and she picked up 10 local dialects easily from Egypt and Jordan. MSA prepared her for that. I think if your objective is to study the local dialect, your way would be key. Learning the MSA opened doors for us to understand our religion, understand Arabic news and cartoons... but speaking with locals... we can always pick up the dialects later. My girl will learn the Moroccan dialect soon. She is very conversant in MSA now.

      @@kays3956 I certainly don't recommend studying a dialect of Arabic without first having studied MSA. That being said, however, people do not normally talk to one another in MSA in any given MENA country: they speak to one another in their particular dialect or dialects. Even native speakers of Arabic from the Mashriq, moreover, find Moroccan Arabic strange. It is not like a shami or khaleeji dialect. I lived six years in Morocco after studying MSA and found French to be more useful in urban Morocco at least till I studied the Moroccan dialect in Fes. In rural Morocco, illiteracy is substantial and few have ability in any language but for the Morrocan dialect. Anyone who mastered ten dialects has my admiration as, except for Egyptian Arabic, learning resources are not plentiful and would probably be well-served to live several months in each country to pick the dialect up beyond survival level.

      @@richardcgs2001 for sure. I learn a few European languages. And I have been able to use it with my travels However, there is a prime motivator for us to learn MSA. Many reasons why people pick up MSA. For us the benefits are high. The good thing is you are easily understood every where you go in the Middle East even if you are thought of as strange. However, MSA is one of the most important pathsway to understand the Quran and Hadith. And as a non native speaker, we take years to learn to read the Quran. To perfect our reading of it. We started learning the Arabic huruf as young as 2 years. Hence, it is always excellent to spend years learning its message in its original form. MSA gets us there. We love the beauty of the Arabic language. Native speakers may not have this barrier. To have this barrier removed first is a priority for us. It is amazing now Alhamdulilah that we can listen to a Quranic recitation and understand the basic message. This we did through MSA. Connecting with a native takes a second priority but InsyaAllah it can also happen. I speak French so it is not an issue. Connecting with the Quran is our first goal. Thank you for your understanding and sharing your thoughts.

    I am also very traditional in that I like to learn new things by handwriting notes. ☺️
    I agree with choosing one method or type of resource for the initial study period of a new language. But some resources are good in certain languages but not in others!!!
    It can be frustrating to find a source you like but it does not have the same quality in one language as another.
    I just wanted to add that note about language resources. Whereas one language may be extensive and clearly articulated (esp. grammatical matters), another can be confusing and not consistent.

    I loved all of these points. I didn’t realize how much of these tips I use while studying Portuguese.
    Yes, I’m Latino. So my background knowledge of Spanish and French help. But your point on visualization is what really helped me learn all 3 Latin languages more than the knowledge I had. Visualizing me in a real conversation with native speakers motivated me to continue learning the language and paying attention to things I might have taken for granted because the languages share similar characteristics.
    Your system of starting in September is excellent! I too started the school year in September so it may also help me visualize where my progress should be by a certain time of the year based on the school year schedule.

    I absolutely agree with point n.9. In fact, that's how I learned portuguese during my Erasmus... first, I spoke the language (to find a house, to get a public transport pass, ecc...) then I learned the grammar. In addition, I never spent time with people from my own country, otherwise I would have never been exposed to the language.

    Another reason to practice handwriting is if you're learning a language with a different writing system, especially if your already known languages all use Greek-descended alphabets and you're learning kanji. Even from the Latin alphabet to Arabic is a pretty big jump. You may need to write something for a speaker of the language.
    My Bibles are sprinkled throughout with notes in Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic (even if the Bible is in Spanish).

    I seem to be a bit of a dissenter, because I actually like learning grammar. (I think that having spent years in school learning grammar in my L1 [English] helped me here, and my time with learning the grammar of other languages helped me when I took an English grammar course in college [when I decided to go to college after a decade of working in electrical].)
    For me, grammar helps me express myself: I see vocabulary as the building blocks and grammar as how to put them together.
    In my early days of language learning, I relied heavily on podcasts and somewhat on online websites, and would supplement with workbooks I found in a bookstore. I think it worked for Spanish and French.
    I am, however, thinking of ways to refine my approach.

    Hi Luca. I'm a great fan of your channel and have benefitted from putting many of your techs to work in my language acquisition efforts. My question is in regard to Polish grammar. It has been my experience that communication in Polish is impossible without tackling the grammar from the very beginning. It has been my experience leaning in Polish is very grammar dependent. I've been struggling with it for six years. Often putting in more than three hours daily. I'm a student of German, Italian, French, Classical Mandarin, Latin and modern Greek, but have never encountered a language as hostile to the learner as Polish. The grammar seems counter-intuitive. This point can be illustrated by the tendency of Polish children to commonly make the same systematic errors with word case endings. I agree with you that with other languages grammar isn't so important at the beginning, but feel that Polish is the exception. My question is..... "HELP!" Can you think of a method or technique with which I can attempt to put these endings in my brain? I've been hammering and hammering relentlessly for years and my progress is barely beyond B1. I only barely passed the accursed language test for citizenship.
