How do POLYGLOTS maintain their languages?

Hello everyone! It's Mylangs back here!
This time I'm back with a video with the topic that many asked me: "How do you maintain all the languages?"
The more we use, the easier to maintain the languages! This is what everyone knows, right? but what if we can't use all those languages all time time on daily basis?!
My video might not be the definite answer but this is my theory of how polyglots, at least I, maintain the languages.
Let's learn languages with me!
Love,
Mylangs

    In my experience polyglots don't necessarily have the best pronunciation. They are much better at grammar, syntax, or vocab. This has two reasons. First, polyglots often study languages as a hobby and may never have lived in or visited the country of which they speak the language. Second, you can only acquire a great pronunciation if you specifically train it or are very talented (which is rare).

    My six year old daughter is a polyglot. I'm Italian-Vietnamese so I taught her both languages along with English (I'm native to all three plus she goes to an International School) and my Korean husband talks to her in Korean. She's also been taking Mandarin lessons for three years now. I don't think she'll grow up having an accent in any of the languages.

I learnt English when I was 3 years old, French at 22 in 4th year in University, Spanish at 25 in the US, Portuguese at 26, Dutch at 29 in the Netherlands, Mandarin and Bahasa at 41 in Sinapore. I maintain my proficiency in these languages by listening to music, watching videos, reading newspapers and meeting native speakers of these languages.

    My native language is English, but I occasionally used an odd dialect of Irish when I was little when my great grandmother was still around. My grandmother grew up in Cuba, speaking English, Spanish, and Irish, however, she never taught my father Spanish, as for it was her “secret language”. When I was 11, my best friend moved away to Turkey, so I started learning Turkish hoping to speak the language with her over FaceTime. When I was 14, I began learning French in school, but it wasn’t until I was 15 when I discovered my knack for learning languages. Since then, I brought Irish back into my life and I started teaching myself 8 more different languages to this day, bringing my total to 12. (That being Arabic, Romanian, Portuguese, Hawaiian, Scots Gaelic, Swedish, Afrikaans, and Dutch to add to English, Irish, Turkish, and French) My levels of proficiency vary between the languages, but I always try to study the ones I am most passionate about everyday, but I try to spend about 15 minutes with all of the other languages each week to keep it fresh in my mind. One of the main tricks I learned is rewriting out each lesson in a certain color slowly, repeating new vocabulary and sentences out to myself, which then visually, audibly, and tactically practice the language, which helps me remember it so much more. Using a different color for each language also helps me to not mix up the languages. I’m definitely going to raise the difficulty of my self teaching after seeing this. For the most part, I’ve been doing easy to medium difficulty lessons every day, but I’m going to raise the difficulty when I find the time to. I’m also going to start scheduling my language learning, as for I’ve just been doing everything somewhat impulsively and quite randomly. I think it’s also time to bring in those songs and interviews again, and I will definitely try watching some shows in my target language. My main issue with learning is that many of the languages I’m learning are dying languages, or only spoken in very small regions. Languages like Irish, Scots Gaelic, and Hawaiian are rarely, if at all, taught as a first language, so finding natives who I can practice the language with is quite difficult, if not impossible. Do you or anyone here have any tips for learning those sparsely spoken languages?

    I'm Filipino. It's almost expected we speak 2 to 3 languages (or dialects). Since I'm from the Tagalog region, I speak Filipino so I'm bilingual, knowing only English as my other main language. Filipino and English is equally valuable to know for Filipinos. Now I am also studying Japanese. This one is all self study. So since my Filipino and English has been established for 17 years, I'll never forget it. As for Japanese, it's harder to study because I don't have anyone else to talk too. There are a lot of words I forget, but those I always hear in animes I watch, it becomes ingrained. So studying Japanese, anime, Japanese songs, they are my resources to retain my knowledge. Anime songs, looking up their translations and checking if they are accurate. When watching anime, I can even determine now if the subs are direct translations or not. When I am familiar with the vocabulary in the sentences, I can understand it even when spoken fast in the animes. I don't have to translate it in my mind. But when new words spring up, I have my smartphone ready and I look them up in the dictionary.

    I have just discovered this channel, and being a polyglot and language enthusiast myself, it is very interesting. Thank you!! I believe that in order to maintain the languages you speak, you have to use them or somehow "have them in your life" everyday or almost everyday. Here how I try to do it (not always successfully): I work in English, German, French and Spanish. So that is kind of covered (also Spanish is my mother tongue, I live in Germany and I have spoken English for over fifteen years). Then, I have an hour of Russian class at least once a week, and try to practice at least one more day per week. I am not advancing much though, so I think it would be better to introduce a little bit of Russian practice everyday. Also, I speak Catalan to friends and relatives almost on a daily basis (and it is also my mother tongue). And finally, I recently started learning Italian by using Duolingo and watching videos everyday. It does help a lot and I understand 90% I would say... But it is also very chaotic for me, since I have never learned exclusively that way (without any grammar or any sort of course). So, whenever I try to speak it I feel like I am making it up... That is why I am thinking about getting a teacher or a tandem partner! A big and interesting challenge would be to learn a completly different language, such as Japanese. But to be honest, I am kind of afraid of failure... This was also what I used to think about Russian and it is actually my favourite language right now... I am also often afraid to start a new language out of fear of forgetting the rest. So if I start a new one, I have to make sure that I keep the rest in my life somehow (even if it is just by listening to a couple of songs)...

I speak 3 languages relatively fluently (swedish and English I use constantly in my daily life, but Russian, which is the language of my family, I don’t personally use much, so while I’m rusty with speaking it I DO know it, if that makes sense?) and 1 language I am currently trying to study (French, especially for school studies, I’d say I’m at about intermediate level?). I worry a lot about forgetting my languages, but I’ve realized that it gets very easy to get back into if you’ve previously been using them and start to slowly ease into them again.

    My father was unilingual French for his first 20 years. Lived in English for the next 40+ although 30 of that was in Quebec a French province we worked and had family life in English. By that point he was starting to have a bit of difficulty with French. It came back quickly when he started spending more time with French people [after a third move] but he was surprised by the decline. There are also stories of people who come to Canada late enough in life to know their native language but too late to really pick up English as a Native language to the point where they end up losing their native language but never develop English to true native level and end up having no native language. It might take decades but you can get a decline in even the firmest language if you don't use it. My spelling isn't all that great but decades of being dependent on spell checkers has wrecked it much more.

    a personal history from my trip to Tokyo. Here I am 5 in the morning, trying to find out, how to get back to my hotel. So I ask a construction worker. Lucky for me, he have been living in Canada for more than 15 years, he used to speak fluent English, but he tells me, that since he have been back to Japan now for almost 30 years. That his English has gotten worse. Now he thinks that he can barely understand or speak english, because as a contrsuction worker in Japan, you do not have many chances of listening or speaking english. We talked for about 10 min, in English all the time, and I was surprised, about how well his english still was, even with little to none usage for around 30 years. He was greatful that he got the chance to speak english again. I am a none native speaker of english. I am from Denmark. I study Chinese, and after that, I will learn Japanese, and Korean. When I live in China, I think in Chinese, and sometimes I dream in Chinese, or Danish, or English, or German. And my German is very bad.

    Great video! Even though I don’t speak Korean, I have a decent knowledge of Chinese characters through learning Japanese and now learning Mandarin. As a result of watching Kdramas and Korean KZread shows, I’ve picked up quite a number of more difficult Korean vocabulary since it’s shared between 中韓日. Even though pronunciations are different, it’s not like having to learn new vocabulary all over again, but learning the same word with a different pronunciation. Your parents made the right decision in making you learn hanja since it’s a mark of the highly educated and it has helped you immensely in learning Chinese and Japanese.

    My native language is finnish and I speak fluent english. I'm in intermediate level in Korean and Swedish, and beginner in Japanese. I was intermediate in spanish but because I couldn't use it, I pretty much forgot it. I started spanish again in my university from scratch and it felt like I've never studied the language because I really had forgotten it all. I also have studied french as it was mandatory in one degree program but I wasn't that invested in it so I forgot it all. I try to maintain korean by watching k-dramas and talking in korean with my korean friends. I'm not good at talking in swedish even though I understand it well so for my new job I took a challenge and added swedish flag to my name tag so that I can really develop my skills with swedish-speaking customers. Currently, I am not invested in studying japanese but I occasionally refresh my memory by watching japanese shows.

But, if the British Empire wasn't a thing there would be no US, among other established nations, so the UK definitely had its hand in making English so prominent. Also, I have noticed that Japanese actually takes some of its English loan words from British English, and when I was in Japan, a good portion of people who spoke English did so with an English accent.

    I’m kind of the same with maintaining my languages. Just watch some TV shows and read some books and try to speak them every once in a while. The more advanced they are the easier they are to maintain. And I agree that if you are able to learn a language fairly quickly through massive immersion or something you can forget it very quickly. I’ve seen people do it. I’ve never had to worry because learning always comes very slowly for me. I’ve been learning Vietnamese for close to seven years and it’s been a hard fight every step of the way to make progress.

I don’t speak Korean, but I picked up a little bit when I was there, even though it was just a layover for 18 hours. There were some things that I needed, and I learned the words for them. I did start to learn Korean last year, but then I stopped… I will pick it up again though I think.

I ever doubted if those polyglots were really proficient in several languages at the same time, but you really are!!! I am just wondering how do you learn a language from scratch, especially the strategy. For example, how do you spend your time on it? Do you keep reading along with monolingual dictionaries? or memorizing lists of words?Massive inputs is before outputs or just practice speaking and writing at the very beginning. I think people really hunger for " the genuine knowledge" about language learning strategy. There are lots of myths out there. Can you share your insights about these?Many thanks.
