    I have a question. Will this work for a complete begginer ? I mean, how could someone who starts learning a language be able to understand words in this context ? Or maybe I don't very understand how the 20x methods works. If so, can someone explain it to me please ?

    • @OneWordataTime1
      @OneWordataTime1 11 дней назад

      That is a good question. If you sit and spend the time understanding what is being said, then yes it can help. But if you're expecting to just listen and absorb the language without understanding, that won't help much.

    • @frenchy8894
      @frenchy8894 11 дней назад

      @OneWordataTime1 so this is not for a begginer right ? Because without looking what does each words means in a dictionary it's almost impossible to understand something (for a begginer still). Or does looking for the meaning of words can be down here ?

I'm using a specific podcast, extracting the full transcript of the conversation and mastering "ngrams" that are spoken very frequently in a 1-hour episode (approximately 60 trigrams per week), which will at least make me fluent in understanding connectives before understanding key words, having a faster understanding of the content even if I don't know the words presented.

Cannot read or write hindi though. So I am very confident that doraemon can teach me the basics of my beloved **Arabic** Language In sha Allah.

    9:59 shots taken 💀and the meetings culture definitely deserves that. Awesome reflection, and congrats on the 1138 days mark! On your first lesson, the way I like to think about it is having both a why and a what, and realigning them continuously. The "why" is just a long-term goal which serves as a compass, your "what" is the next step that you take towards there (or following the analogy, path on the map towards the goal). Regularly reflecting on the relationship between the two and whether your current trajectory is aligned with your end goal is just systematizing your learning to make sure you stay on track. Though honestly, I think many people have a tendency of turning a simple reflection into an overthinking session and doing this could derail them completely 😁

    unterhaltsames Video. Hab ähnliche Erfahrungen beim Deutsch-Lernen gemacht und ich finde auch die von der Zeit produzierten Podcasts absolut hörenswert. Als Amerikaner wie Sie genieße ich im besonderen deren Podcast OK America. Ich interessiere mich dafür, zu sehen, bzw. zu hören, was die Deutschen von uns Amerikanern und unserem ein bisschen wahnsinnig gewordenen Politiksystem halten. Ich bin auch derselben Meinung was Ihre Zielsetzungsstrategie angeht. Im Laufe der Jahre habe ich mir unzählige solche Mini-Ziele gesetzt. Von Anfang an war mein Hauptziel eines Tages in der Lage zu werden, Herman Hesse auf Deutsch zu lesen, und ich habe letzten Sommer dieses Ziel erreicht indem ich sowohl Steppenwolf als auch Siddharta fertig gelesen habe. Das nächste Ziel lautet die Verbesserung meiner Sprachfähigkeiten. Schreiben, Hören und Lesen fallen mir leicht aber das Sprechen von Deutsch liegt mir auf gar keinen Fall, was wahrscheinlich primär an einem akuten Mangel von Übung liegt. Bis dato ist meine Sprachreise die eines Einsiedlers gewesen, also diese Unzulänglichkeit wundert mich deswegen nicht. Nochmals tolles Video und viel Erfolg bei Ihrem Weiterlernen dieser schönen Sprache.

    When I started learning German, I was going to language school in germany, but not really progressing. I started watching a german cartoon, and all of the sudden I was understanding a lot more, and then from there i moved on to drama's and stuff like "lie to me" and played in in german with german subtitles. These things let me level up my german really high really quickly.When I was a child though, I moved to the US wtihtout ever hearing the English language before, I learned how to speak in english after one summer vacation of watching cartoons like Thunder Cats etc. It helped me learn to speak and understand in English, and then school just helped reinforcxe what i learned.
