The Problem with Comprehensible Input for Language Learning

The Problem with Comprehensible Input for Language Learning
even as a Chinese, I have to think about how to pronounce the tone when I encounter the characters I have never met. don't worry about it, it's normal. I think you can just regard them as different words, so the tones are there for you to learn more characters faster.
6:50 yarsss i love podcasts,, and you get to learn a lot about the culture too. currently doing it with japanese and it already helps a lot with listening!
Very good mandarin. Just perfect
Thank you for your advices! They're helping me a lot. Can I ask you: in anki do you only put the audio for the words that you need to learn, or also for the entire sentence? Because for many of my sentences I don't have an audio recording
I find I speak Chinese everyday when visiting China and Taiwan but rarely speak Chinese in Malaysia where I live as if I mess up it is unlikely I will meet those people again...
Those podcasts are much harder for beginners to understand, than some channels like Lazy Chinese - Comprehensible Input, Xiaogua Chinese. And probably more similar channels.
Hm, i just searched hsk for anki and downloaded hsk1-3 with tones, audio, examples. So i wonder why you had to struggle in the beginning.
You should SELL your Anki Decks. I would play a hefty sum for those.
those anki decks should be pure gold, almost magical I must say
Check out Simon's Chinese interview here if you haven't already: ruclips.net/video/XSswFJ4nrOs/видео.html
Looking forward to watching this later today. Loved the last one. Will could you put a link to the podcast you mention here: 7:51 Thanks!
Thanks so much Daniel!
I’m not learning Mandarin Chinese but I definitely understand the importance of imitation and not relying on learning words visually.
Great video! Thanks for sharing! :) Am I the only one who dislikes spaced repetition techniques like Anki? I’ve tried it at least 3 times during my Mandarin learning journey, only to give up every time because of how boring, stressful, and inefficient it feels to me. I would remember the vocabulary on the cards, but I’d struggle to recall it in real-life situations when needed. And that’s despite using sentence mining and other well-documented techniques, by the way. Could it be that spaced repetition techniques work for most people but not for me? Or am I just gaslighting myself?
Yeah I mean, its not just you. It works, kind of. A bit like hammering in a screw with a hammer. People exaggerate its effectiveness. I find ultimately your brain only takes in so much, and only absorbs what it wants to. It can be useless or useful words, in context or out of context, doesnt matter. It does what it wants. So yeah SRS works just don't expect miracles. Its a long slow grind and maybe you only are able to do a few a day long term. Also you might not see results for a long time.
It could be that Anki just doesn't work for you, but it could also be how you were using it. How many cards were you adding a day? Did you try and make sentences with the words you were using? Were your cards based around 'recognition' or 'recall'?
It is definetely boring and stressful, you're not gaslighting yourself there, but is also the most efficient tool to get new vocab, hands down Just don't over do it
No you are right…Anki/SRS is super boring and very inefficient long term (studies have proven this). It’s much more fun and efficient to do what’s called extensive reading or reading material that’s 98% comprehensible to you. This is called pleasure reading and studies show it improves your vocabulary by about 1,000 words a year. You may think you can “go faster” with Anki but that’s not true because of something called the affective filter (hypothesized by Stephan Krashen) You won’t acquire as much vocabulary from flashcards as you “force” recall your brain shuts down and doesn’t remember as easily. This is why a lot of Anki users experience burnout and don’t keep up with their reviews or quit altogether. Even a lot of the cards you do remember you will lose within 6 months to a year. It’s much less stressful to read and listen to comprehensible input (98% comprehension rate) and to let those words bake into your subconscious with the natural repetitions of the words on the pages.
@@janelle.loves.languages can you link the source for the anki studies? 1000 words a year is basically 3 words per day, I can't think of a most inefficient method than this, I could cram 1k words in anki in 7 hours and probably master them just doing the bare minimum reviews. On top of that you only learning vocabulary that's common, maybe the 1k to 2k most common words, good luck acquiring more rare or obscure words that are still very necessary (2k+) it will take ageeees for every word.

Need to mine for batteries for that smoke alarm…
I'm new to Anki and watching your videos helped me get started today. Thanks!
Also see (Ms.) Ruri Ohama on 2nd language brain. Video channel her name.
Oh my gosh!! This looks amazing!! I'll be sending my kids to this camp as soon as they meet the age requirements, whatever they may be 🤣 Brilliant video, thanks He Wei!
Wow! Love this video! 首先我想说,你的中文真的非常好!!才学了三年就说的那么好,真的很厉害!!! I really love how you break down the process of language learning - I hope you don't mind me doing a plug for my own video (ruclips.net/video/8e7qG7xeR94/видео.html), but I think that there's quite a lot of overlap between your tips and mine, especially in relation to starting out with structured content before transitioning to more personalised content. I've tried Anki for Russian without much success but to be honest, I think the consistency simply wasn't there 😭 Great tips, I've subscribed to your channel and look forward to exploring the rest of your video library! 加油!!!
!! 好厉害哦。很佩服你们!
I think I'm like you, I'm trying to mix all these method together, but also I need make some adjustments to speed up the improvement speed. Can I ask you how much time have you spent every day to study chinese? That is the same language I need to learn
Hi, very impressive progress big kudos to both of you :) I am learning Mandarin, and I find that making flashcards while listening to podcasts or after a class takes so much time that it almost makes me feel like I am silly wasting time… do you have a similar experience? And then I consume a lot of content in Chinese but if I was to note down everything I would have to quit my job. Am I alone feeling this way?
I think you're making too many flashcards. Set yourself a clear goal e.g. today I am going to learn new words from this 30 minute podcast and then write down those 5 sentences and after you've finished watching/listening copy and paste them into anki. A lot of language learning is working out what to learn at what time and prioritising. Really hope this helps!
@ thank you Will, this is super helpful, will give it a go 🤗
You're the only non-native Chinese teaching channel on RUclips who seem comfortable having conversations in Chinese. All the other non-native "teachers" don't seem comfortable speaking for any amount of time on video, especially in a free-flowing conversation. They always talk in English and only occasionally speak Chinese. Your obvious comfort and mastery makes me feel a lot more confident in your methods.
Really appreciate the comment! I think your definitely right, this is sadly so true and is the reason why and try and do as many videos as possible in Mandarin :)
@@willhartmandarinI can't wait for your next videos!
👍🏻👍🏻

AI is crazy these days, that video looks 100% legit
That's because it is legit lol
@ it was a joke my bro
Very impressive. I didn't understand at the start, when using Tandem / HelloTalk etc language exchange, did he type back and forth or speak back and forth? If speak, how did he get from zero to conversational?
That's a very good question. At the start I was just using the very little vocabulary I had gained from a few pages of the HSK1 book to try and type a bit of Chinese, but as you can imagine this only lasted for like a few seconds before I had to switch to English haha. After this however, I would just try to use all the Chinese I could before I didn't know how to say something and when I didn't know I would just ask my language partner to help me translate it. Obviously during the very start I was mainly using English but I would slowly gain more and more vocabulary each day and try to use it whenever I could. In terms of speaking, I was very hesitant to speak at the very beginning because I was so shy to speak Chinese out loud haha, but once I got more comfortable with the language I would slowly increase the amount of voice messages I was sending in Chinese and this eventually allowed me to start having little conversations in Chinese and I pretty much just did that all the way until the point I'm at today. Hope this makes sense :)!
So the trick is having Chinese friends lol.
have you ever tried the marilyn/mind palace method for memorizing ?
I have, but I prefer the keyword method for language learning. It's a mnemonic method developed by Paul Nation that works really well.
Will,视频最后提到几个网站。是哪几个?(是不是忘记提供了?)另外,视频最后,你谢谢Lynn老师,我预期她会说“不客气”,她居然没说。(感觉没有体现中华文化的礼貌。不过可能对着镜头紧张吧?她的面部表情,看起来有点拘谨。)
我是中国广东人,我看你的视频,才知道三声加二声,第一个音只发音一半😢(但企鹅,水果我是会发音的。难道学语言,因为听多了,就能约定俗成?即使我不知道这种发音规则。)
发现2:35,字幕“一生”,不小心打错字了。应为:“一声”。
2:41的“三生”,也打错“生”字了。(应为:“三声”)
优秀、爱学习且谦虚的帅哥!未来可期!前途无可限量!
Will,你也是非常真诚的人👍🏻👍🏻
今天是感恩节,感恩你制作这么多学习视频。祝你感恩节快乐。现在中国时间是11月28号下午1点22分
谢谢分享
2:50的“那句话”,我猜你想表达的是:“哪句话”?
你的视频,让我觉得很感动。你参加比赛那段。我流泪了。
你很谦虚,善良,也很感恩。非常好的男生👍🏻👍🏻
有一次,我在中国的电视节目上,看到你出现在上海一个活动,太开心了。挺喜欢你的视频,我想找个时间把你以前的视频看完。希望能从中找到学好外语的方法。感谢你的分享!希望哪怕某条视频流量不高,你也不要放弃更新视频。因为说不定哪一天,你的分享会改变了某一个人的人生。感谢你!
Will你真是中国通😂什么词都认识,666👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
谢谢分享。视频很用心,点赞👍🏻👍🏻
突然发现,可以通过你的字幕,学英文!
何威,你的普通话发音比很多中国人的更地道👍🏻👍🏻
Soy de latinoamerica y de verdad se escucha las oraciones completas y con el sentido intacto❤
thanks youuu
Something the two of you have in common, other than extensive use of Anki, is having a native speaker friend who is willing to let you practice speaking with them, and patiently correct your mistakes. I'm just curious why they were willing to help you so much for free. Even my own wife (a native speaker) won't help me like that! You guys are lucky to have such friends.
Totally agree, it's mainly because we both found language exchange partners so we did the same for them in English. Once you've gotten pretty fluent there's not much pressure on native speakers to have to correct you as much
@@willhartmandarin Oh, so it was a language exchange. That makes sense. Probably the best way to learn, without having to pay money, if you can find a suitable partner.
