Speaking 6 Languages! How to Learn Languages and Become Multilingual?

5 жыл бұрын

Speaking 6 languages to tell my story about how I learned Finnish, German, English, Swedish, Japanese & Chinese. I love languages so I wanted to share my thoughts on how to learn languages and become multilingual. Ep 24⬇See more below⬇
Finnish language is my mother tongue. Finnish is so rare that one has to learn foreign languages to survive. :D German language is my first foreign language and I am learning German again after a long break, since I currently live in Berlin. Learning English has always been somewhat challenging for me, but after living abroad it has become easier. I have also learned a little Swedish, but the most passionate I am about Japanese language and Chinese language. After learning Japanese I thought it would be fun to learn Chinese as well. Nowadays, I can speak Chinese more fluently than Japanese. Learning Japanese and learning Chinese are quite different from how to learn English, but that’s what makes learning languages fun.
I don’t know if I could call myself a polyglot, but it would be great if one day I could become truly multilingual or a polyglot speaking multiple languages fluently.
I hope this video inspires you to learn languages, since learning languages is so much fun!

DragonSwordMountain of course it is possible! But it really makes a difference in HOW you learn chinese (just like any language). She went to university and to start like this it is perfect cause she would just study for hours and hours every day. Just a real pitty she didn’t have a chinese roommate. But after innitially studying a lot with books you have to start watching shows and listen to music etc etc and eventually make chinese friends or get a languagr partner. At one point you won’t be able to get passed the intermediate plateau without thatbapproach

I am English and spent ten years learning Japanese and also two years German. Your Japanese is absolutely excellent. As a native English speaker, I find German absolutely easy and in two years, I can pretty much talk about anything and understand most stuff. Japanese is just plain hard. I don’t find learning language easy anyway, but Japanese has been very challenging, although I’m pretty much fluent now. I have never lived there and so I’m sure my Japanese is a bit rubbish really, but good enough! I found for myself, if you’re learning a second language, the best way to speed it up, is to start learning a third... if changes your brain and you start to understand “language in general” more. That’s just my thought anyway. Appreciate any tips or thoughts from others. Thank you! :)

I agree, watching tv in the language you are learning is very helpful. I have especially used this method in learning Chinese. In Chinese tv shows or news they luckily use Chinese subtitles most of the time which I find very useful. If you are at the very beginning of your language learning path, then I would probably recommend to use English subtitles or subtitles in any language you can understand.

Facial expression and vocal intonation is crucial to language learning. For example, in German if I were to be very expressive and nod my head while speaking others would think I'm crazy, while if I weren't to do so in Korean those whom I speak to would think I am uninterested or not listening. When speaking English in India I would wobble my head to express excitement or pleasure, where as in Ireland I would be asked if I have Tourette's.

In my country, the Netherlands, we learn four languages during highschool: Dutch, English, German and French (most schools also offer Spanish as an extra multi-year course). German and French we get for the first 3 years and then we choose one to specialize in (in my case German) for the last 3 years. So by the time you finish highschool you're basically fluent in three languages and have decent knowledge of at least one other.

Haha, I am in the opposite case with you that my first language is Chinese(I am not Chinese) and Japanese, and then later started learning English at school by first the grade. I went to a Spanish and German course when I was in middle school, and Spanish was ceased after 2 years of learning because I wasn't mentally prepared for that. Still that Spanish knowledge helps me later learning Portugues, feeling ease and joy since this time I know what I am doing with such a beautiful language. Currently, I am planning to go study in Finnland(My favorite country on this planet), yet I haven't started learning the language since there are not many resources. One day I will be like you, Kaisa A, lol!

All the Scandinavian languages were very influenced by the Hanseatic League traders from the 1400s to the 1800s, and they spoke Mittelniederdeutsch or Middle Low German. You can see it very easily in Norwegian words like "snakke"(to speak) or "forvandling"("transformation", similar to German Verwandlung) etc.
