I personally never understand when people say they learned a language just through watching television. They must have some other input or way of knowing what the words mean, for example, translating as you watch. I think a lot of people create the false illusion that you can just put the TV on and absorb a language. When in reality it actually takes a lot of work and effort. Another great video Zoe, thanks 👍🏻

If you read Ferdinand de Saussure, you will discover that by hearing a language very often, although at first it sounds like a continuous melody, in time you get to make distinctions in that language, to separate words or parts of words etc. So it's definitely useful to watch series in the language you want to learn - especially if they are subtitled - , precisely when you are a beginner, because at some point you learn how to recognise words. You also acquire thus a very important passive knowledge of the language, which will be useful when you will start concentrating on books and grammar. At that moment, you will have the impression that something feels "natural" or seems to be "already known", without you wouldn't know exactly where from. In my country, half of the population that watched subtitled Spanish telenovelas in their youth have a pretty decent level of Spanish now :)

I agree with you, i started watching movies and series when i was like, 8 years old or something like that?, and that's the way i learned basic English (I also played video games with my sister who knew more English than i, but it didn't help that much in my learning process), 3 years after that, KZread was my favourite and most used app, and that's how I became much better at the language, watching videos of content i liked with subtitles in Spanish and that was all, and that could be compared to watching series or movies with subtitles, i never had classes of the language, the 85% of things i know about English is thanks to KZread. Maybe it was because i'm still young and it's easier to learn languages, at least that is what i have heard before, but still, i don't think that is completely useless to watch series, videos or movies in another language trying to learn it, even when a person is "old"...if there are errors in my writing, i would like to know.

I am learning both Dutch and French through multiple avenues and I found that watching TV shows and movies are one of the best tools for those who don’t have much time or energy to devote toward learning a new language. Most of my ‘study’ sessions occur in the evening after work. I found that I needed to start with Kids shows to obtain vocabulary and general structure and then I was able to graduate to more complicated shows, although I had to watch multiple movies and shows before I could watch more casually. Also, Disney+ is a great source for language learning since most of the movies are dubbed and subbed in multiple languages. I’m definitely far from fluency in both languages, but I’ll get there someday! Good luck everyone! Thanks Zoe for the nice video!

Veel geluk met het studeren 🤓

Here's what I'm doing with Russian now trying to go from B1 to B2. 1) I start a series, I watch 1-3 episodes right through with RU subtitles, extensive watching for pleasure. 2) I then download the subtitle transcripts and read through them intensively translating all unknown words which automatically get added to a flashcard list. 3) After each transcript I will watch that episode again until I'm up to date and then continue with another 1-3 episodes extensively. I often forget words but I do pick up many, I try to find a balance between studying as intensively as possible but not so much that I get bored. I want to get through the series as fast as I naturally want to as if it were in my own language.

Do you have a precise app that you use? I’ve heard of Lingo pie, but I am wondering what you use

I always thought I'm too lazy for learning from watching. I focus on the action, story and totally forget about writing down the notes or just new words. But at certain level I see some advantages like training pronunciation while watching with subtitles or simply get used to the sound of new language. Also lately I really enjoyed the feeling when I can finally watch some videos without subtitles and still understand a lot 😄

In my humble opinion, watching vlogs is more efficient. And you do get better results if you listen, not watch. As our eyesight helps us a lot. With most of series its quite possible to understand whats going on even if you dont speak language a lot. I started watching a turkish series as i am studying turkish, and after 45 mins time it was like i just was enjoying myself. So I switched to a turkish guy who was making vlogs about supermarkets and trips, and that was great! Series may work if you do some tasks, like retelling what you've seen but do the most people do it. I doubt it.

I love how you mentioned quality studying, and the way you separate your time and energy into morning and night study sessions, your strategy is very logical and easy to accomplish, I can definitely see the consistent studying in this method will generate results and that's very motivating. You, yourself is a great example, seeing how much you have improved your English in one year's time, thank you for sharing your insights and being so inspirational!

I love your videos. You always give me some motivation to learn more. I am currently struggling with integrating in my routine arabic and russian studying sessions. Thanks for the tips. XOXO from Mexico City.

Thank you so much. this is clear cut and I barely get that from videos about languages. I need guidance and structure because I haven’t studied in a while and i’m always working.

You always have a way of dropping something that's relevant to where I'm at in my language journey. Great as always

That was really useful. I used to do this to practice the pronunciation. But now I have to focus deeply and challenge myself. Thank you ❤️

I mostly learned english through games and videos, but I did have some basic lessons when I was young. I also read and wrote a lot and later I spoke it a lot. I think it also depends on what languages you already know. If I were to be able to learn through movies with almost no lessons, it would probably have to be german, Norwegian or Swedish, since I already am Danish and speak English and Dutch.

Thank you for the timely and helpful video! I've been trying to jump on the bandwagon of "learning" through media, but was quickly overwhelmed by how much I couldn't recognise and understand.

Thank you very much for your job

Yes, watching films and t.v. is an effective way to learn. It's to be done in conjunction with other things. You will passively learn things as well as actively notably pronunciation, stress rhythm, tone pitch, set phrases. Your goal is to totally saturate your brain with the target language so much so that you internalize it. You can and should listen to your target language while you sleep for this reason. Vocab reinforcement while sleeping works. Not active learning but passive immersion and acquisition can and do happen passively including while sleeping.

Thanks Zoe

I like that you got right to the point Zoe. So yes I'm an A2 so I began watching films- Nettlix is great to use subtitles in OTHER LANGUAGES- it's worth the money.

Thanks for this video in my situation i learned some basic English when i was at high school but after that i never tried to learn English anymore but i really liked watching English series and movies but i always watched them in my native language subtitles but i could hear them speaking English all the time and after years of watching like maybe 8 years i can understand 80 percent of watching movies and i can speak and write like this which i never practiced or anything and i know it's not perfect but yeah i kinda acquired the language i didn't study it and I'm like at intermediate level all i can say is that it is possible to learn a language just by watching movies and series even in your own native language subtitles but also takes time like takes so many years

this is exactly why it is important to combine the two kinds of resource to cover different skills

I learned English just through basic education at primary and secondary school and later with films/series/programs. That was it. No bilingual school, no academies, no private tutoring. I just paid attention in every single English class and remembered everything. By the time I got a scholarship for a 2 weeks summer course in Bristol, even though English had been my second foreign language in Bachillerato (equivalent to Preparatory and Baccalaureate or Junior and Senior Year) I had a B2 level.

Hi, Zoe! Thank you for this video! I'm studying Levantine Arabic, and, as you know, it's not easy to find learner-friendly TV content. You mentioned watching Turkish TV with Syrian Arabic dubbing. Where did you watch this? And were there also subtitles in Syrian Arabic?

Hello Zoe and friends! I know this question is of a topic different to what is presented here - but to some extent there may be a connection as it all relates t interest and what you find engaging in a language. Especially Zoe, i admire your focus and dilligence when it comes to your studies! How do you let go of a language without the guilt? how do you literally say 'goodbye' to a language and not struggle to feel badly? it's been very difficult and i'd really like your thoughts on this and/or others too

watching youtube videos & tv shows helped me the most when i was learning english. when i was younger i couldn’t care less about english classes, but consuming content online & attending classes (even though i scrolled on my phone the whole time haha), helped me to become more fluent. sadly, i never learnt grammar, so even though my level is C1 (i just finished academic english course at uni), i struggle with basic grammar. now i’m trying to learn german and i’m starting to practise my grammar from the very beginning & studying vocabulary in context. however, even though i’ve been trying to learn german for years, it just never sticks to me. a few days ago i started to binge a new netflix show and decided to watch it in german with english subtitles (ik many people say that it’s a bad way to study languages and that it’s not helpful). hooowever, now i’m starting to recognize some words and after a whole day of binge watching the tv show, sooo many german words sound in my brain. i think that tv shows are a great way to expose yourself to a new language and it just makes studying vocabulary and grammar much simpler.

I find reading subtitles is ok on a ' second pass' through a film, when I hae picked up the gist, but there are still many points of uncertainty. That also helps with recognizing the rhythm and pronunciation, which I then immediately vocalise under my breath, because that helps me to internalise and then eventually use the language I have just been exposed to. I also find that subtitles help even if they are translations into my own language (English), because then I can 'back translate' into the source language of the film ('oh, so that's how they say it!')

And I am at the second step of my schedule. :) Since I am a French native, who's originally Moroccan, and speaks Arabic and English, also can speak a bit German and Japanese, I fell in love with languages.

I think as a beginner you can still learn things such as intonation and try to hear new words by hearing them several times and looking them up. I srill watch movies in my target language with both TL subs and English subs. this has more to do with absorbing how pwoplw speak naturally and try to catch some words here and there.

Apart from what you are so clearly explaining here, I think one aspect should be emphasized: Watching movies and series can be effective as ONE activity among several. You won’t be able to learn a language through JUST movies and series, but they can be one interesting learning tool alongside others. (And yes, I imagine that some people will now start to protest by mentioning Krashen and his input theory. Sorry, I don’t buy it. If you are old enough to comment on youtube, you are very probably too old to “acquire a language like a child” by just listening. And even if it works for some people, it will not be a quick or effective method, whereas it will be great in combination.)

I have learned Hindi by watching Cartoons since I was 4 years and now I'm 13 and I can speak both Hindi and English fluently ☺😇 Now I'm trying to learn Korean !

I think for those like me and are not study focused with book or flashcard learning, watching tv and moves, reading books, playing videogames set to target language are great ways to learn once your at around A2. I wouldnt have gotten to intermediate had I not given up the books and just dove in, bc if i dont like a way of learning i'm not going to learn anything by forcing msyelf. Trying to do book things and flashcards just made me dread spanish bc it felt like a chore, but engaging with thigns meant for native speakers and just having fun made me learn more. If I'm watching something in a language i dont speak or a game has original audio in a language i dont speak i set the subtitles and menus to spanish. Now my weakest spanish skill is speaking since i left spain and its harder to coordinate time to play online gaes with my friends there due to time difference, but that's fixable.

Subtitles for Arabic would be awesome if they matched the dialogue. Unfortunately most times the subtitles are in the formal language while the actors are speaking informally.

It's dissapointing to only see 8 languages on Lingopie. Hopefully they will add more soon. Thanks for the helpful video Zoe.

By the way @Zoe.languages you have great pronunciation. I have 1 recommendation that may help improve it a tiny bit: you are saying “collity” for the word quality. It’s correct pronunciation is closer to “cuh wah lity”. Not trying to be nit picky. We all understand you so it’s not a big deal but it can help improve your pronunciation that much more for words that have the “qu” letter combination in English

super

I don’t want to disparage anyone in the language, learning community, I like a lot of the people involved in motivating people to learn languages… But as someone who went from being a monolingual English speaker to being able to speak three languages in addition to English, I think it’s an intentional miscommunication, as a way of attracting attention, and sort of getting people on a kind of bandwagon. The key to the falsehood of learning languages through watching series is that it’s never all someone does to learn language… It’s just what they spend most of their time doing or they’re culling that material for common vocabulary, grammar, field, specific, Terminology, etc. It’s also one of the most indispensable ways to accomplish ear training for a specific language. But if you really look at the methodology of most of the people, saying they were the language by watching series on Netflix or wherever else, it’s never all they’re doing, it’s a component of a larger framework that usually involves a lot of hours with spaced, repetition, software, and some kind of grammar resource. The only people, for example, that I’ve heard tell me this who have successfully learned another language (in this case, English) were people that watched a lot of TV, but they forget that they also went to school where they spent a ton of time in contact with English, and it was necessary for daily living . But watching TV was never all they did either. Great video, it was absolutely spot on!

I personally learned english through watching movies and series since I was young, but i’ve never intentionally watched them to learn the language i just picked it up with time

Out of curiosity how would you rank the languages you feel comfortable in? Are you more comfortable with French than English? Etc

My native language is Serbian. I was born and raised in Serbia. As a kid I watched Hollywood movies (with subtitles) and listened to music in English. When we started learning English at school in 5th grade it took me a bit to figure out how to read and after that it was smooth sailing. The teacher actually asked my dad if we ever lived in the US or if I had English classes before. Now as an adult I am learning a few languages and still the best way for me is through listening and reading but now I have to incorporate some grammar and a lot of exercises as well. Nailing the accent takes me a bit longer as well. As a kid I wasn't learning English, I was watching movies and listening to music. I also had a lot more free time.

All language learning is about repetition and imitation. Imitation is a basic instinct skill of humans as a species. From experience, the earlier the individual starts learning several languages at once, the better the brain of that very individual retains information. Imitation is underrated because people have limiting beliefs and limited time to devote to learning new skills or languages. One needs to be as enthusiast as a baby or a child in exploring and learning new words, new concepts, new things. It is also better for someone to plan a language learning as a long run venture. To make it short, repetition, imitation and genuine motivation make it through the journey of polyglots.

Learning Spanish for almost 3 years. And it all depends. Watching something dubbed into Spanish is easy for me but that accent isn't natural as it's almost too clear, kinda like a news caster in English. Watching something from a native country for me is better but what's better for me is youtubers in your target language. I tend to not use subtitles also unless I really need to, probably is 10% of the time.

I just want to point out that reading is the best way to improve your language. Watching videos with subtitles is like listening while you follow along with a book except there are visual cues if you watch the actors and listen to their tone of voice. When you are first starting reading in a foreign language you do the same things Zoe describes for beginners in this video. Ditto for intermediate and advanced. Beginners need to spend a LOT of time translating and should have the script to accompany native speaker pronunciation.
