Comment from : @borisbudai9238

I have a question here,brbrWould this be realistic here- br" I wanna learn Russian and be fluent in it because I wanna speak it at the UN and in my Disability organization as a 2nd language for the organization " brbrI watched this because I felt videos I saw like " I know 16 languages FLUENTLY and here's how I learned them " or some other video like that and I also have been feeling lazy also, that's what's been killing my motivation so that's why I watched this video :3

Personally, I have a passion for learning languages, especially Italian I love this language so much It's so beautiful and systematic at the same time Italian culture and cuisine motivate me to practice it I was obliged to learn English by the Thai Ministry of Education, saying it is very important to learn this language If you don't know it, you'll lose job opportunities in the future Sometimes, we lose a good chance to learn other languages
Comment from : @seguiiltuocuorefollowyourh3693

Learn a language means to attain the chosen skills of the languagebrStudy a language means to improve the chosen skills of the languagebrLearn to do something means to become able to do somethingbrbrThere are 5 language skills:br- reading comprehension: your skill of reading texts and understand itbr- listening comprehension: your skiil of listening to speech and understand itbr- readlistening comprehension: your skill of readlistening to audiotexts and understand it Audiotext is a text with its version in speech and you can read the text and listen to the speech at the same time As for readlisten, it means to read a text and listen to the speech version of the text at the same time Audiotexts may be videos in english with subtitles in English, audios with transcription, etcbr- speaking communication: your skill of communicating to others using speakingbr- writing communication: your skill of communicating to others using writingbrbrIn order to learn these skills, you must study them correctly Unfortunately, a lot of people who desire to learn one or more of these skills can't do it successfully because they don't study correctly and don't know why they can't learn i've been through this difficulty before, but eventually I find out that the correct way to learn languages is the same we learned our native language and we learned it unconsciously, so we don't recognize the real way of learningbrbrThese are the correct way of learning these 5 skills:br- reading comprehension: read a lot of English(for instance) by paying attention to what you're reading until you get used to as much as possible of Englishbr- listening comprehension: listen to a lot of English by paying attention to what you're listening to until you get used to as much as possible of Englishbr- readlistening comprehension: readlisten to a lot of English by paying attention to both audio and text until you get used to as much as possible of English It teaches you the correct pronounce of what you're reading and helps you to improve listening easierbr- speaking communication: actually, in order to learn it, you have to listen to a lot of comprehensible English speech by paying attention to what you are listening to As a result, you learn to speak sentences with many vocabs and good pronounciation naturally, without thinking about what words you wanna speak and without using mental translation to form sentences in Englishbr- writing communication: You have to read a lot of comprehensible english texts by paying attention to what you are reading As a result, you become able to write texts with correct ortography and grammar I am a portuguese speaking person from Brazil, I learned a bit of English as a second language using the correct way of learning languages and there was no need to write what I mean in English translating from Portuguese to EnglishbrbrThis is the truth about language learning, you probably believe in different methods, but every people from the world who learned any languages learned the languages in the correct way I hope this to be useful for you and helps you to learn the languages you want we only understand what we are used to lisen and read i wanna know your comments about this :)

Being fluent in German is not an unrealistic goal, it's a long-term goal
Comment from : @thatyoutubechannel9953

the government put in a rule that you have to learn at least 1 language for gcse if you get certain grades, which is fair enough I've been learning French for 4 years (I would have chosen Spanish but I didn't get to choose) and still can't hold a conversation My exams are in 7 months so I need to start learning NOW lol
Comment from : @aoafruit4001

one tip is to listening to cds while driving just to get your ear acquainted with the sounds even if you don't understand everything at first

your tips is very useful thank you some people get abset because of failing in speaking with a native speaker as example
Comment from : @mohamedelsadig2197

Definitely agree with go with what you're interested in Most of my students who grow the fastest do just that On top of that I'd add focus: I'm interested in tons of stuff, but I find that when I hone in on just one or two things (like, say, learning how to talk about my job or playing a particular game) I grow a lot faster

Comment from : @Thisula_Nisula_Siheli

I would also like to add being able to express yourself Not just "I am happy, or I am sad," but also be able to explain why The quicker you are able to express your emotions in your target language, the quicker you can start functioning in the language
Comment from : @noname89636

I also agree with focusing on a niche area When I was learning my first second language, Spanish, I focused on the fashion industry I love fashion and it made learning the language fun and it allowed the words to stick I was able to start reading fashion blogs and magazines in Spanish at a much quicker pace and a lot sooner Againbuild language confidence
Comment from : @noname89636

I think that building quick confidence is a key factor As boring as it might seem, learning how to introduce and talk about yourself in your target language helps to build quick language confidence as these are words that are most likely to stick at first
