vocabulary, in my opinion, is the most challenging part of learning a language. there's no use knowing all that grammar if you don't even know enough words to attach to it or to understand what it's saying. i've always struggled with just memorizing them since i tend to forget them after. what really helps is memorizing it and seeing it somewhere else. i guess this is where immersion really comes to play.

Correct! Take a thin grammar book to get an overview first, and then use it as a point of reference. After that just keep consuming content in your target language. If you can read the language do sentence mining alongside (~20 cards/day) to enhance your progression. Best of luck!

I am socio-linguistic students and speak 12 foreign languages, and my native speaker is indonesian language. The first input that i do is listening the native speaker. I listen their pronounciation, accents, intonations and stressing without knowing the meaning. I just only know the the language phonetics. Then, the second input is reading the phrase or the sentence. I look for the tv show or talk show of the target language, i read the subtitles while listening their phonetics without knowing the meaning. I only focuse their phonetics. With variety of the voices from the native speaker that i listen, From the heavy voices, deep serious voices, and children voices. If we have got accustomed with their phonetics, when we speak to the native speaker, we can minimalize our difficulty. Word is the sequence of the sound, intonation, stressing, pitch, and speed that articulators produce. The third input is to learning the phrase or sentence, not word by word. Our memory is easier to save the meaning information and recall them. We can make 5 phrases or sentences based on what we have ever experienced. First time i used this way when i learned chinese mandarin (普通话), because we know that chinese has many accents based on the geography. In casual situation, the chinese native speaker don't use the standard pronounciation fully, they are still influenced by their local dialect, that's why we need to learn their phonetics. When i speak to guandong people, i have no difficulty to understand her pronounciation, because before i have got accustomed to listen them. They sometimes reduce the sound "h", for example, 说 (shuo) = suo, like taiwan accent. When i speak to dongbei people (东北人), i can minimalize my difficulty to understand them, because i have ever listened to their pronounciation and speed of speaking. They sometimes reduce word pronounciation from the word combination, it means that they don't pronounce the words completely or fully.

@@KelahCash You will never be able to learn the language like this, hindi is one of the hardest languages for english speakers to learn you cannot play around like that with It and expect to learn It. You should enroll in a lingoda online course If you have got the time and the money. Its one of the best ways to learn a language online. otherwise you should research on your own on how you can learn a language online. I'd suggest to learn from a book that takes you from beginner level to intermediate and has lots practice material. Watch videos on individual topics too and make sure to practice listening and speaking alongside you book. The best way to learn vocabulary is the flashcards methods. Learn about anki and how to use It for language learning. Once you are through A1 level then you can start to immerse yourself in the language more with consuming content in the language. It will start to get fun the deeper you get into the language and the culture. Good luck! I myself am learning my first language, German.

This video is probably the only useful one I’ve found for tips. It’s so thorough and goes further than just, “practice and memorize” thank you! I have always felt lost as to which methods would be more effective for learning

“Don’t memories words, use them!” The best advice

Thank-you Zoe for the great video. I'm still struggling with learning the language but with the help of you , I now see that I can learn the language more easier starting with 5 or 10 words per day.. Keep up the great work Zoe. 😊

Thank you Ms Zoe. You are honest and generous in sharing your journey.It made me reflect on my styles of learning which are laborious but not very effective.My husband is a foreigner and Im trying hard to learn his language.

Really good content! As an aspiring polyglot myself (currently studying German, French and Japanese at the same time), I think I was overlooking the fact that active recall should be the best way to be able to really internalize the words and be able to use them. Thank you for sparing us the effort and time wasted into learning vocabulary using any of the other methods you mentioned and instead focusing on what really brings results!

Zoe, you are wonderful. When I see how fluent and functional you are in all your languages, I am willing to listen to everything you have to teach.

Often times I get stubborn with my study routine but this video inspired me to take a step away from my linear routine. Thank you!

Hi Zoe, you're definitely right! It's really necessary to reflect on one's own learning-strategy from time to time. I am currently not very satisfied with mine. I feel a bit like a slave of the space-repetition-approach and have to do some adjustments. Space-repetition is so time- consuming that other aspects of language-learning are neglected. Your hints are precious in this regard. This Reverso-add-on e.g. was new to me. I think it could be combined with the free-version of LinQ.

Yeah, I haven't heard of reverso add-on, though there is a deepl addon, which is great, but not presenting with much sentences examples. As for space repetition, I also like new app - remnote, it's a bit complicated at start, but creating flashcards is so fast in there and it's free both IOS, PC and Android.

I have just watched your video with the Persian girl, you were both amazing at Arabic👍👍 big thumbs up from me as an Iraqi😁

I am a turkish teenager and i started to read Turkish classics of 19-20th centuries and as you may know there are many arabic and persian words in The Ottoman turkish version so i struggled a lot. Your video is really efficient and now i'll just use them in my own sentences. Thanks!❤

Such a helpful video. I have been learning Korean for going into my third month now, and am using many of the methods you have suggested here. I often do the walking around, looking at things and speaking them out when I can whilst at work, making sentences when I can. I also try to learn verbs by making as many sentences as I can in past, present, future tense, and then build them up with lots of adverbs etc. I admit I have recently started trying to learn lists of new words everyday though, which I've found doesn't work half as well as they're gone from my mind the next day, or lack the context you say about which makes them much harder to learn this way. So I'm glad to have found this video to put me back onto the more useful methods. I also find KZread lessons much more concise and so useful than text books etc, which I've tried but keep moving away from, except to check on details I learn in the KZread videos. The main weakness I have is listening, so will definitely adopt the Reverso tip and try to watch as many videos as I can to help me with that side of things. Do you just download this tool to apply it to subtitles in a video like you showed in this video? Thank you for the inspiration.

@zoe.languages

2 жыл бұрын

Yes, I often use it to check certain words on the subtitles and allow me to continue following the whole video.

1. Get attention to useful and frequent words. Quality is better than quantity 2. Don't only rely on active recall and spaced repetition. Digest actively new words as much as possible (write down the summary of what you learned, listen, catch and speak out loud the word you just learned, and try to review words in 5-10mins before starting your daily routine) 3. Classify the resources which are used to get new words (article, KZread video, speaking) into specific groups and take notes toward these groups. Last but not least, use appropriate notes (app, online docs, notebooks) to review effectively

Omg this video is so interesting! I'm a linguistics major, and I'm studying Spanish and Korean right now. I want to study some more languages, and i have a few in mind for the near future, but this video has given me so much useful information on learning languages. I love learning languages and i get so much thrill from it, just finding out i can understand a word or a sentence is just so exciting. The practicing tip of saying things out loud is reeeally useful, I'm definitely going to be using that now. This video is so useful, I'm definitely coming back to this channel. Thank you so much!💕 I've recently begun to use HelloTalk, it's this app that lets you talk to ppl around the world who wish to learn languages as well. I talk to people on there who want to learn English, and I learn Spanish from them. It's a great way to practice a language. I would recommend to anyone who needs more practice. The downside is that it requires a subscription for most of its features.

This channel is like a hidden gem. I am lucky to be one of the founders. Thank you for making such amazing videos this really helped a lot!

Hi Zoe thanks for your advice, I'll try apply these methods because I'm learning English and for now I'm using active recall and spaced repetition, but I want to use the methods than you recommended it. This is the first video that I watch of your channel. Thanks for inspire me!

Thank you! It was very interesting. I've been studying English for a few months now, combining it with my regular non-language job. (Actually, about a couple of years, but due to external circumstances I've had very big breaks in my studies). At first I just studied vocabulary cards and translated into Russian (my native language) articles or texts that interested me. A couple of weeks ago, a polyglot friend of mine told me that I shouldn't keep doing only translations. That it was a bad way to learn a language. She said that I should try to make language real by using it. Like watching interesting videos in English, writing comments, and not being afraid of mistakes. It really helped a lot! In just a couple of weeks I suddenly began to understand English much better, although I didn't learn a single new word. I just let myself relax and try to understand the meaning of a particular video. I apologize for the mistakes, I suspect there are many, but I hope to get better in the next years and pass some international exam .

You are so right about not memorizing. I am conversing all the time. With the repetition of conversation, I truly learn the words over more time, but I remember them well and in context. More and more, I understand that in the conversation, it is important to connect general words with emotion words. Those emotions will stimulate memorization. For example: I burned my hand on the pot and it really hurt. I thought I was so stupid for burning my hand on the pot.

These tips on this video are super helpful too! thank you thank you!

When I was in school studying Spanish, we would have to either read or listen to different pieces written or spoken by native speakers for native speakers. For example, a news article or a radio show. After, we would write a summary of the piece in Spanish. Once we wrote our summary, we would present it to the class. However, we would present it on our own. We couldn’t just read our summary out to the class. My teacher did allow us to take a small bullet point list with us to the podium, in Spanish of course. After presenting, the class would ask questions about my presentation and the piece and I would have to answer. It was an intermediate Spanish course, but out of my four Spanish classes I took, that work improved my Spanish way more than any other method BY FAR. I of course had to build a foundation of basic grammar and vocab, but nothing improved my Spanish more than the immersed environment my professor managed to create. I spent 7 years after my classes not using my Spanish so I lost a lot of it, but now I’m using the same sort of method my teacher used to help me regain my lost Spanish knowledge and it’s coming back very fast.

I learned English when I was very young, even long before you were born 1982 - 1989. I had a good English teacher back then.. besides, I read English magazines, watched American movies, etc.. English is the only foreign language to learn formally at school ... I learned German 1990 - 94, went to Munich 1993. after returning from Munich, I learned B2 - C1 levels, discussing German newspapers and magazines .. I had a lot of opportunities to speak German with Dutch tourists, because Dutch usually speak German as well. I learned French 1994 - 1996. many French vocabs are similar with English. I learned Russian, late 1999 - 2002 .. I read Russian novels. this is difficult, because Russian is not so close with English .... so far I sometimes try ro read Russian, while I don't learn German and English anymore.. I started to learn Mandarin since 2017, when I was already 48 years old .... and still repeating Mandarin vocabularies.. listening to Chinese-speaking channels in YT .. I also learn Japanese since 2017 for comparison with Mandarin, but not so intensively as Mandarin.. I never succeed to learn Arabic...

@Video talk I'm a 53 year-old Indonesian, have a daughter and a son.. my daughter takes after me, she learned French, Thai, and Korean. my son doesn't like to learn foreign languages, only English because English has become the international language ...

@Video talk I'm already 53... Steve Kaufmann indeed learned Russian when he was 60. now, as he's already 75 or so, he learns Arabic and Persian... I understand 6 foreign languages : English, German, French, Arabic, Russian, and Mandarin with different levels of abilities. I speak German pretty well, and been to Munich to learn German. It was long time ago that I reached B2 level, nearly C1. But it seems that my German deteriorates. I also learned French and Russian, but I don't speak those languages very well like my German, and of course, my fluent English. Now I'm learning Mandarin, and I believe my Mandarin reached A2 or B1 level, because I got Hsk-3 in October 2019. The problem is maintaining the ability. Once you get the B level, you start to be fed up with the language you have learned, unless you have a very high motivation and specific purpose to learn the language. And after that the next question is whether you can maintain the level that has been attained. I reached B2 or even almost C1 in German long time ago, but now it seems that I can only answer relatively correct the B1 level. My German deteriorates. Language is a matter of habits and habitation.... so, now I think I just try to maintain those languages which I have already learned. when I was a boy, I even wanted to learn dead languages like Sanskret and Latin, but as time went on, I changed my mind .. I used to be a language lover, maybe I still am ... but as time goes by, many things happen to me, so I try to make a living first as a government employee, while sometimes doing my hobby repeating languages which I have learned. Thank you ...

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing

Why are you so pretty inside AND out!! 💝Thx for the content girllll

@Zoe.languages you should have more subscribers. So much more. You have such motivational and informational videos. I love them. Thanks for the content. I also learned a number of languages to varying degrees, but now trying to actually learn them to fluency. Starting with French.

I view Anki flashcards as living and dynamic: start with a word, the moment it is learned, add a verb or adjective, then build a phrase. Constantly change them the moment they become familiar, adding new words learned. It can be used as a phrase notebook: constantly evolving, never static. The "Edit" button while viewing an Anki flashcard is perhaps its most powerful feature. manzana to tres manzanas to ¿vende manzanas? to como manzanas todos los días. My flashcards are constantly being edited as my vocabulary grows. Thank you for your wonderful videos.

amazing suggestions.. everytime I watch other language youtubers.. it's always, read, watch, listen.. but never speak... I loved your tips.

read and write should be, listening is the hardest, speaking comes along

You have a huge love to learning language. That makes you be different

Je suis une française d’origine turc. Je parle donc le français et et le turc comme langue maternelle. Depuis quelques années j’apprends l’anglais comme je peux. Je suis contente car j’ai compris toute ta vidéo. Merci pour toutes ces conseils. Je veux plus tard apprendre l’allemand et l’arabe car j’ai des bases sur ces langues et des raisons. En ce moment j’utilise beaucoup de sources pour apprendre (principalement KZread) mais je ne sais pas laquel est vraiment efficace. Un rêve d’être polyglotte comme vous (toi et Iclal) ❤

*İyi ki senin KZread kanalını keşfetmişim.. Gerçekten HARİKASIN!!!! Dil öğrenme konusunda anlatmış olduğun metotları deneyeceğim. Gerçekten çok teşekkürler. Türkiye'den selamlar

Thank you so so much Zoe for everything you teach us 🌹🌹

你真的好棒！最近把你前期的视频都看了，真的可以感受到你越后面的视频发音越正，说明你办法非常有效，因为你的学习办法我重新开始学习语言和博士申请计划，谢谢你！😄

Omg another video with useful tips 🙃 I really appreciate it hugs from Brazil!

Writing sentences and getting them recorded by a native speaker is a way to go for me. I also recommend paper old school flashcards ❤

I'm learning ASL and honestly your channel is so helpful and validating in my studies

Thank you for sharing your tips! Your ideas make so much sense ♡

I am so impressed and you are very inspiring! 💗 Thank you

Here are the things that I learned to improve my English proficiency while watching your video. "Learning vocabulary is an important part of language learning. However, many people focus on memorizing a large number of words each day without considering their applicability in everyday life. Instead, we should focus on learning common vocabulary related to daily life. Categorizing words and using them in sentences with both the present and past tenses is also a way to make memorizing vocabulary easier. You can create categories such as verbs, adjectives, and nouns, and use them in sentences with both the present and past tenses. This will not only help you remember words, but but also understand how to use them in context. Using language learning apps on your mobile phone is an effective way to learn vocabulary. These apps provide vocabulary learning functions with different topics and also have a feature to repeat the vocabulary to memorize them. Learning a language through reading books or watching movies is an interesting and effective way to learn vocabulary. You can choose your favorite books or movies and read/watch them. This helps you naturally and practically understand and hear new vocabulary. Finally, communicating with English speakers is a way to improve your language proficiency. Take advantage of opportunities to communicate with English speakers in daily life. You can join clubs, attend seminars, or participate in online games with English speakers. Exchanging, discussing, and learning from others will help you improve your speaking, listening, and pronunciation skills in English." Thank Ms Zoe very much for sharing the 3 common questions about vocabulary learning. 🥰

love your tipps so much! thank you so much - can't wait to start learning words on this smart way.🙋‍♀️

In learning Japanese my goal is just 2 words a day. I used to aim higher but the study time got ridiculous!

10 per day is easily achievable in under 20 minutes per day including reviewing. If you have trouble recognizing kanji then do the RRTK450 anki deck first. Don't obsess over having perfect retention.

Xiexie Zoe! Thank you Zoe, I watch your videos with great interest. This one too, was very interesting. I like your suggestions, especially to use new words, like the buying from the supermarket example you gave, also to not rely on numbers but use and also concentrating on the first 900 words and learning well. I also watch many language learning videos. Funnily KZread suggested me couple of videos on learning Chinese characters faster and easier so I subscribed to few Chinese language channels. First I need to be intermediate 8n Russian then I am thinking on Chinese. By the way, I also wanted to learn vocabulary faster especially the first 1000 most frequent words using readily available flashcards in Anki. Your suggestion of Reverso is great came across that one on the web but did not about this neat app. I comment a line or two in Russian now after watching Russian language learning videos which is at the moment my only use for now, but your suggestions are cool, like taking notes in that language.

Tahnk you, you just made me discover reverso. I didn’t know that you could translate a word directly from the subtitles of a youtube video and that with the reverson app you could revise the vocabulary with a card. Ant it's work

In order to learn languages you should be smart and very motivated to study everyday. Also speaking to native speakers and travelling is the major key to keep the language alive. I've learned German for two years at school and since I don't practice it I almost forgot everything I learned now I can only remember some basic words.

I homeschool my children and we've decided that all 5 of us in my family will learn together, in hopes that it will be an immersive environment, which will help us all. I'm going to also find a way to play movies, shows and others in that language to help us. My husband and I already speak some German and we know native speakers. We will all become polyglots over time. Spanish will be next, since my husband has a strong base in Spanish from being raised in an area that has a lot of Spanish speakers. I speak a little and understand the pronunciation along with some other basic understanding. Then I think we will let the kids vote on the 3rd language, or if 3 or 4 that we give them a choice from, like Russian, Chinese, Japanese or Swedish.
