im learning english and i want to learn germany .. i watched this video without translation and i understand everything..actually this video makes me happy cuz now i know that i can learn both languages at the same time.. thanks man im glad that i found ur video and ur channel ♥

It's perfect for me. I don't like talking to people much, but I do love languages

I was hoping someone would post songs in different languages that would include greetings and simple phrases for ordering and useful questions but seems theirs nothing on utub

I am using Lingopie. They have subtitles and if I don’t know a word, I can click on it and it tells me. I’ve learned a lot reading things over and over. I believe this program has comprehensible input no matter what ur level is. Just a thought

Long hair was better.

偶然このビデオを視聴しました。聴いていたら，日本語への愛について日本語で話されていたことに感銘を受けました。また日本語の学習を再開されるとのことで，このビデオは2年前のもののようですから，その後日本語をまだ続けておられるとすれば，さらに上達されたことと想像しています。Robinさんの最近のビデオも視聴してみます。また，日本語で話されているビデオがあれば良いのですが。私は日本の研究者で，英語は論文読みなどで使いますが，会話は苦手なので，高齢ではありますが，最近，会話の上達を目指して練習を始めました。ロビンさんの日本語に負けないように頑張りたいと思います。Thank you so much for your wonderful story about Japan and the Japanese language.

I usually talk to my horse when I go out for a walk and pretend its a visitor from UK visiting my country for the first time. Unfortunately once I didnt realize there was another person with a dog behind me...

Hola amigo Robin, e muy buena de verte otra vez !

Very interesting , thank you very much .

Read the first chapter until finish without distracted..and learn about main character, place or other detail. In the next chapter will be easier to understand.

Did you want to Shanghai last week? I saw a man in airport business lounge just like you .

This was helpful. This explains why I cant maintain the new language at a high level.

It is a great tutorial for using Notion. I already watched it several times. Thanks a lot Robin!

I do not usually comment on videos. I am just a pretty private person and find the internet, or, communicating on it, to be intrusive, but I had to comment on your example with Babbel. I consider myself a fairly advanced German learner. I had a few semesters in college, but due to mental health struggles, I did not retain much. Last July, I revived my German, and since I am unemployed, and have massive amounts of time on my hands, I was able to put in five to seven hours a day. That being said, I went back to an early lesson on Babbel, and found out that the last word in German compound words is the one we refer to when deciding what the article for that word is going to be. I know you understand what I am saying, and I do not feel the need to make it any clearer. So, yes, I agree with you. I also learned how to read German prices through an early video meant for beginners in German. I have found that early on, especially regarding grammar, there is so much potential anxiety about having to understand and then retain what you are being told, because you are not comfortable listening to the language, that coming back to a beginner lesson, while already advanced, just allows you to fully absorb the message or lesson. That is my two cents. I have enjoyed your videos for some time and I am glad that your situation seems to have improved from your early years in the game of language learning. Be well.

Hi, now in retrospect, what do you think of the Speakly app for learning Finnish? How does it stack up against Duolingo?

Merci, Robin. Tu est genial.

I just want you to know that tonight I studied the entire Chinese alphabet, because you did Chinese!

Welcome back, Robin! You are truly an old soul.

Very practical and detailed advice thank you so much ❤

I'm using this very same method with two of your videos; the podcast study method and the one where you explain how develop speaking skills talking to yourself.

I have a French Assimil book, and I got bored with it. I cant find it now.

Thanks for the sharing!

I try to understand some English books but I can’t understand these cause I don’t know so much vocabulary this is the main reason why I bought English books what can I do in my situation?

Guys, I'm looking for a serious learner for exchanging languages I'm a native Arabic speaker I wanna practice English and Spanish. If you're interested, reply 😇

So sexy with this look ❤ miss more videos

I'm trying to learn Mandarin for fun via Duolingo. I'm not sure if I'll really be able to speak and understand it. For now, I'm just having fun :D This is very inspiring! Thanks for sharing!

Your enthusiasm is very infectious ❤

❤

Best video ever.

Wow! I love your Italian and I am Italian myself. Impressive ❤ I hope one day I could learn and speak German the way you speak Italian. Amazing. Thanks, this is a huge motivation!

How much extensive reading is enough each day.

Qué video tan bonito. Gracias, Robin.

Totally agree with you ! To be capable to read and understand foreign languages is a curious sensation but such a comfortable one ! France from France. Thanks for all yours videos !

I know it is not about memory it is about acquiring the language over time i would say..

I enjoyed this video

Que tal? Muy bien.. For me, not so well. My husband died last year, but I am hanging in there with the help of my languages. I also started sharing Spanish with my friend. We are doing 3 words a day in Spanish. It doesn't sound like a lot, but with the grammar it makes a full lesson.

I love the casual "ne" 🤭 absolutely authentic 👍 Overall pretty good🫡♥ ich hoffe, du hast nicht aufgehört :)

I just seen this video! you are ACE! Je suis français et parle américain anglais à un haut niveau, car j'ai vécu plus de 12 ans aux États-Unis et plus de 25 ans au Royaume-Uni (ma femme, mes filles et mon petit-fils sont anglais). ...but have an accent: for English, as a non native language, the truth is if you did not have a parent that was anglophone or did not go to an English speaking school when from a very young age, you will have a foreign accent. En ce qui concerne les accents anglais, il y en a beaucoup qui peuvent être forts dans certaines parties du Royaume-Uni, et dans des pays qui parlent l'anglais de manière en partie officielle, comme en partie l'Inde et autant la Jamaïque par exemple, et ils ont des accents forts. Je me suis enfin décidé à réviser mon dialecte espagnol Mexicain (aux États-Unis, nous vivions dans le sud-ouest, en Californie en fait, où le mexicain en tant que langue était fort et souvent utilisé). Aussi, à Long Island , NY, j'ai appris de l''espagnol (Costa Ricain) en 1 an avec une femme qui s'occupait de nos filles ). Mais j'adore l'espagnol Mexicain Oui, un jour je vais être très bon en espagnol mexicain et pour me détendre et parce que cela me rends heureux, comme faire le Mexicain, je vais faire pour m'amuser aussi, pour un plaisir holistique, un long cours de langue Choctaw (Chahta anumpa) pour ses sons relaxants et apaisants. ainsi que des éléments culturels éblouissants et naturels. Même essayer le grec et j'en reste là. Thank you for having hugely inspired me to re-learn the power and usefulness of languages . AND AS MUCH that to do a language because it can make one happy! Merci de tout coeur! Dabbing can then lead to one or two languages, or more, that really might hone your time and energy to learn them because you discovered their inner beauty or/and identity within some cultural or specialities that some country(ies) do. 👍💜

Thank you for making this video ❤

Really, when you speak a little nervous that will make listeners a little nervous also.

Thanks for your fine talks. Best wishes!

A fine discussion, thanks. French has been my main foreign language since 1991. My learning included long breaks.

Cartoons I’ve found are awesome for language learning

I learned good German in 6 months. To really learn a language one has to listen and talk with people. That’s how you really learn. Now depending how stubborn you are, you can do it quickly or more slowly.

I've also learnt languages using personal methods. Robin MacPherson's approach emphasises independence in language learning. While some actively seek out opportunities to speak, he prefers a more organic process. I can relate to this as I prioritise developing a basic level of fluency independently. My own language learning experiences, such as becoming fluent in Italian during a month in Italy, are consistent with this approach. MacPherson's reluctance to impose language practice on others, such as Japanese exchange students, reflects a respect for their learning goals. Instead, he focuses on self-improvement until he feels ready for real interactions. His method involves constant repetition, sentence manipulation and thoughtful discussion with himself about emotional content. This approach fosters independence and confidence, preparing learners for meaningful interactions when the time comes. It's a refreshing perspective that empowers learners to take control of their language journey at their own pace.
