make sure to turn the quality up hehe and comment your own thoughts and things you wanna share !!
It’s hard to stay motivated when you’re trying to learn a new language. However, I’ve learned that by combining your entertainment time and your language learning time, this is an easy way to stay motivated as a language learner. I personally like to use Immersive Translate to generate subtitles to my CZcams and Netflix, and that’s how I’ve been learning Vietnamese, my target language. I’ve already learned a lot so far, which is really great.
that’s great! i agree with everything you said :) good luck on your journey ! i’ll try out that subtitles technique
New viewer here! I love your attitude and general outlook towards language learning. I've been learning mandarin for over a year now, and I'm studying really hard to try and solidly reach HSK 4, and I just want to say! 加油！The beginning with mandarin is definitely the hardest-- once the tones stop feeling so foreign, it starts to be a lot easier to remember them and pronounce them, and once you have a bunch of radicals and characters memorized, it's a lot easier to memorize new words because they'll often reuse the same radicals or even whole characters.
谢谢你的视频，我期待你的下个！
ah i always look up to you guys in HSK 3,4,5 haha 🙏 this is some good advice! i agree the beginning was pretty hard haha but i think i’m easing into it slowly now! i’ll try to use this advice from now on! thanks for sharing, i’ll keep this in mind, 谢谢你!
Your video quality is so awesome! Just found your channel. You should totally keep dreaming to live in Japan, you never know! 😊
ah thank you!
i love that you talked about how language learning isnt that deep 😭 its so true ?? ive been thinking of this too lately. sometimes we take it too seriously but really, we could be making it a fun and lighter process
ah exactly! people make it a life or death situation but… it’s not meant to be like that 😭 glad u resonate with that haha 🤞
You're so right about the "corporate academic setting" ppl use to study languages. Maybe we are just brainwashed into thinking you need to be doing only "serious and productive" things in a "seriuos and productive" way to feel accomplished!
for sure! it shouldn’t be something we feel burdened about
