From personal experience I needed to master the basics of the foreign language at home first, otherwise I wouldn't be able to make sense of anything when it came time for full immersion But yes, that full immersion is eventually crucial, making that foreign language binot/i/b foreign!

Comment from : @melody_btsrocktheworld781

I usualy call this "jumpstarting", I hardly ever get to speak english (even though it's my mother tongue) so I tend to stutter and forget words when speaking it to other mexicans, so when I'm sure I'm going to need it I kind of watch a movie or listen to music in english trying to jumpstart english in my brain It works like 90 of the time, but what really works is getting drunk, whenever I get drunk I can jump from spanish to french to english without a stutter

Interesting Language is culture
Comment from : @HanHan_147

This is an interesting application of context dependent learning brMy take-away is that yes, you might want to practice thinking about home etc, so you can get better at it, not not think about it In fact, practice many different settings so that your language isn't locked into once place

Comment from : @rachellaroche9393

as someone who is fluent in english but who does not have it as a first language, i notice i tend to mimic the person i'm talking to, and the longer the conversation the more i adopt their way of speaking, so if i'm speaking with a british person i become more and more british, but as soon as some german starts speaking english to me i feel my accent become more and more choppy the same with spanish as well, i am still learning the language but i noticed as soon as i came home from a language trip to spain, maintaining the language became much more challenging learning languages is hard

i can't take part in the cultural immersion debate since i didn't learn english by living in another country; however, i do think that i'd boost my overall skills by settling in one moreover, everytime i watch a seeker video i end up being frustrated because the anchors speak way TOO fast and my listening comprehension just can't catch up with everything they say i even lower the video's speed i guess i'll keep trying!!!
Comment from : @jamilmoscoso6776

True in my experience I cannot speak Spanish with an American even though we are both fluent in Spanish I always thought it was because I became more self-conscious of my language and any mistakes I made, but maybe it's just association or a combination of both

That is the coolest T-shirt you have ever worn This video has me thinking that If foreign technical writers want to produce instructions in English, maybe they should have old re-runs of Gilligan's Island in going in the background We might actually get instructions that we can read

but what if I'm trying to learn at home…
Comment from : @dustinm2717

I am not fluent in either Spanish or German, but it is possible that I learn these languages to fluency No offense to my fellow Americans, but I have actually had a glimpse at some European culture, such as rugby and orchestral music, and I actually think that some European culture is better than our own (I also like pizza, but I don't know whether or not it counts)

Don't learn Mandarin plz, As a Chinese I dont like foreigner who speaks my language and I will only reply them in English when they try to talk to me in Mandarin
Comment from : @Abel_Y

Last school year, I was in my 3rd year of French, and I was in my 1st year of German The teacher for the German classes was also a French teacher, and lived in France for a period of time Therefore leading to her having a bunch of French stuff in the classroom as well as German When I was in German, I would constantly switch to French due to the fact that I would see the French things in the classroom
Comment from : @Katt1848

I knew this was a real thing, When I was learning English sometimes I felt like I current get the right accent but in some cases I had it, I could only speak very well with certain people, but there were a few Who I couldn't pronounce it like I wanted If anyone has the same problem please contact me I will help you
Comment from : @santos7963

Comment from : @Channel-xy2wj

Whenever I speak Spanish, I end up adopting the accent that I am hearing, to the point the other person is curious to know my country of origin It is unconscious and I hope they don't think I am making fun of them

Hey I'm Northern Irish, and I am planning to learn a 3rd language after I become fluent in Spanish It's a choice between Portuguese, Irish, and MandarinbrbrPortuguese because it's similar to Spanish and it's easy to learn It's a beautiful languagebrbrIrish because it's the language of my ancestors and I want to keep the language alive But it's really hard to learn The language is very unique and that's what I love about itbrbrI am thinking of coming back to learning Mandarin I went through a phase as a preteen of learning Chinese, until I found out there were not many classes

once i was in madrid (capital of spain) with my czech grandma, i speak a bit of spanish, so i did the talking, but once we entered a restaurant and the staff immediatly started speaking with my grandma, she replied "ano" (czech for "yes")brbri had to explain her afterwards that in spanish, "ano" means anusbr brbroh and fun fact, in spanish "curva" means turn (as in road turn), in czech, "kurva" (same pronunciation) means whorebrso we had some fun while learning spanish

So, did they think the fish was being hunted when given an Australian prompt?
Comment from : @Roxor128

This true! When I was living in Ecuador as a Peace Corps Volunteer, I became fluent in Spanish because I was fully integrated in the community for over two years I was hardly speaking English nor was I hanging out with English speakers most of the time Also, I meet immigrants all the time in the US and the ones that come as adults and stick with their immigrant communities are not fluent in English even if they've lived in the states for several years Learning a language takes two things-- the will and the immersion That is the recipe! I hope to be trilingual one day

Im learning dutch and latin and written mandarin, all of which are hard Im already fluent in spanish and english I was trying to talk to someone who is fluent in Hindi and english in english And i forgot the word "girl" in english It was awful and we stopped talking after that because i forgot how to speak our only shared language Pro-tip: don't learn more than one language at once, you'll fuck up really bad

Comment from : @Twitch_Bear

I am slightly put off by the reference that the American's view of the fish picture is showing optimistic "Leadership" qualities over the Chinese response of "being chased" You might back that segment up with some very grounded cultural philosophical ideals from the Chinese culture in an image that are lacking in the West

Comment from : @jhonatansepulveda2899

culture really matters when you learn the language, in Chinese there exist many words with extra meanings and feelings When people write some sentences with "autumn" and "fallen leaves", they usually means "upset", because it's the way those poets in history expressed their feelings "White hair" means "sad", "snow in June" means "Injustice"，"Red beans" means love, there's a word"green fat red skinny" means a girl would look more skinny in red dress
