Of course you can! I feel like I wasn't able to actually reach fluency myself before exercising this way. I hope you learn all your target languages soon! ☺️

I've been finding a lot of youtube videos of people who like to learn a lot of languages and it's been really nice. I always limited myself bc I thought it wasn't possible so it's been nice to meet this 'community'

Right bro! It just be for clicks.

@@AlexaSerafimides find entertainment/media you enjoy in foreign languages . For Japanese I like anime/video games/youtube channels so I can constantly expose myself to them. To me Japanese is the easiest language because there’s thousands of anime and video games (and I’ve literally watched thousands and played thousands lol). But you can also watch and play them in any language nowadays, although it’s even better if you do something that came directly from the country to start off. For Brazilian Portuguese I like watching Easy Portuguese series as they do street interviews and show off culture naturally. (Love the super warm/friendly vibe and aura) There’s a lot of Easy language series on KZfaq that you can find for your language of interest most likely. Since you’re interested in multiple languages I would recommend just looking for interesting videos on KZfaq until something resonates with you. And those Easy series have subs on your language so you can screen shot them and show them to ChatGPT and ask it to break down the vocabulary and grammar , you’ll be able to learn extremely fast with technology helping you to. And can make flash cards as you learn culture and enjoy entertainment. You can experiment with learning completely different languages spending 15-30 mins on each daily first , or if you do similar languages maybe spacing them out a little like every other day to avoid confusion , and getting the pronunciation down in both . You can do more time if you’re having fun, just don’t burn out. I’m doing both Spanish and Portuguese nowadays and sometimes it can be confusing if I study them too close together because I’m a beginner in both. I’m fluent in Japanese though so I generally just use Japanese and then one Romance language at a time. And am also doing Chinese which is easier for me since I know Japanese. But it’s easy to burn out when I’m not having fun and kinda just force myself to do everything daily. Because of my positive experience with Japanese I know I need entertainment or to find something I can enjoy to get into the other languages more eventually. But if you have a reason for learning certain languages you’ll be able to continue them more naturally.

Hi!! I am trying to learn Spanish too. I am not good at it, but I want to practice:)

Thank you!!! I hope this helps you in your journey!

Thank you for watching!

Hope it helps! 😊

Learning languages one at a time is probably one of the worst pieces of advice possible. You have to keep them active in some way, even if you aren't studying them in the same way or level! I feel like people see language learning more as a "studying" way instead of "speaking," which is a way different process in the brain. I am glad it helped! 😊💌

Nope! Sorry for the unclear instructions! I just go one language & one sentence without repeating the same thing. I think it really imitates a more natural way of talking. I imagine it as if having three friends who all speak different languages and that I would be talking to each one in order if you know what I mean.

Yes! This is why it's so important for your languages to be used as often as possible, with each other. This is also why learning languages completely separately is likely a bad idea..

Yeah, that was my problem as well. Output is complicated when you do not train this way… No problem! I use the boya wireless mics, to which you can find the link to in my description box. It is my absolute favourite! Also please note that it is an affiliate link and I would be benefitting from your purchase through the link.

Definitely! But also, the most effective way of learning a language is to push yourself, let's say, if a word is very similar in Spanish & French, and you didn't know the word in either, you can then look it up in your native language and learn the word in both of your target languages.

Interesting! That, to me, sounds more like code-switching. There's a lot of information & research done on this topic, specifically due to bilingual households. It was pretty much the case in many households in Turkey with kurdish people!

@@RalinaEvin idk about buzzwords for something, i put it down to there being no word in their language for dining table or something like that. But only nouns and only in their native tongue. Interesting.

Yes, and no. Using your target languages to use newer ones is another way of exercising this concept! Code-switching is a more natural, subconscious thing depending on your environment (Korean Americans will speak English with each other, but maybe switch to Korean around their grandparents). The main idea is that if you don't want to get confused speaking either Japanese or Korean, you should switch between them as often as possible and train your brain to essentially be able to seamlessly switch between languages like a native in both.

@@RalinaEvin Thank you🍀

If I were to take a guess, I'd say she's from Turkey.

@@officialpaulsinwill Her english accent does sound turkish, i guess her channel name is not her real name then.

Do you refer to her British accent? I think it is good, definitely not perfect. She is a very impressive young woman, that's for sure.

To be honest, I think you could start now if you wanted to! At this level, you could totally make it work, as you will have a beginner vs A2 level. However, keep in mind that how you feel about it is really important!!

@@RalinaEvin do you think starting mandarin now will delay the pace of my French?

I was wondering the same! It doesn't sound natural and make it harder to keep up for me. Edit: the fact that I'm not a native speaker isn't actually an issue here. It is a normal speaking speed, but not her normal speed. It is sped up and that disturbs my watching/listening.

@@Alex-KnzAs a native English speaker this sounds like regular speed to me 😭😭

@@Zargo09 Same here. Most KZfaqrs (especially American ones) speak far too slow for me so I have to watch on double speed and it's sometimes frustrating when they're so slow that even double speed isn't enough, but I wouldn't assume they've artificially slowed it down and I feel these comments are a bit unnecessary. Different accents / individuals speak at different paces, that's why the x 0.75 / x 1.5 tool exists so we can each have our needs met.

@@Zargo09 I think his English listening comprehensio might be on a lower level which is why he would struggle with sped up vids like this which is totally fine of course.

Idk why it sounds normal to me-

@@Zargo09 The problem is not the speed itself because it is actually a normal speaking speed and I can understand what she says. The problem is that it is obviously sped up and doesn't sound natural. Some moments even sound more sped up than others. I find it disturbing. It distracts me from what she's actually saying and I have to focus harder. The 0.75x speed make it sounds more like her natural speaking speed. I don't know the point of doing this instead of just keeping a natural unedited audio.

@@Alex-Knz I think she just speaks quickly - I have ADHD, speak extremely fast, and am a native English speaker and to me she doesn't sound unnaturally fast. I usually watch videos on 1.5 - 2 x speed and even when sped up she's still within normal range for me and I personally prefer faster speakers. I think the issue is more so the mic / audio quality which is giving some artefacts/ might be peaking a bit, and when she's edited she's cut very close to the speaking so there aren't as many pauses. In any case, she's obviously a relatively new KZfaqr, and practice with this and better equipment come with time and money. I think you could have given this feedback in a more encouraging way, especially as many people watch at different speeds and have different needs so it's not a hard and fast rule that she is too fast or is too slow. Just a thought :)

@@kera-oregan As I said, speed isn't the issue (cuts either), but the way it sounds is (video LOOKS sped up too, not just audio). ADHD? So you might understand why some details can make it more difficult to maintain focus for some people. I've watched a few of her other videos and they don't seem to be sped up like this one. If I gave this feedback in a harsh way, I didn't mean to, I only use the words I know. I should've also explained the issue in more detail in the first place. Yes, people watch at different speeds and have different needs, it's for this exact reason the video shouldn't be sped up and let people the choice of the speed. I'm not the only one saying this video is sped up. You seem to be able to understand why this can be an issue for other people but also seem to invalidate our experience by saying yours is different. --> "Just a thought :)"

Thank you! I myself watch videos in 2x speed, and that is why I tried to keep it as concise and "packed" as possible, without any pauses. The phone I am using for filming & editing is a bit glitchy, though, and it might be a reason why this turned out this way! I am so sorry if it was bothersome! I'll try to keep it as polished as possible next time!

forgetting word is common.... even in native language people forget words... in that case try to represent the word in alternative way... next time you will remember...

Exactly!! Forgetting words is completely natural to everyone, even native speakers. To improve your vocabulary, I recommend reading novels. I'll make a video about that as soon as possible!

It’s completely normal. Just make sure there’s not a lot of time in between learning sessions.

The big point of this exercise is to keep your languages active and be able to switch as fast as possible. Say you're at A0 level in Spanish, A2 in French and B1 in English. You will then use all these languages at the same time, for example, translating between English and Spanish instead of your native language, so that you can improve all your target languages AND be able to speak without mixing them up & stuttering while switching from one to another! Let me know if you have any other questions ☺️
