Hi how can I contact you?I have too many backlog and I didn’t really understand the solution?can you help me?

Im an English as a Second Language teacher here, I have learned a lot in my training. Basically you need comprehensive input, and immerse yourself as much as possible. You need listen, speak, read, then write your second language. Each of these four are assessed on their own. So you must use the language as much as possible, take risks to go beyond your comfort level, and keep growing. If there is something you dont get well, practice that and let what you do know flow.

Is this better or lingq and why? I think they are kinda similar no?

Great software, but boy do they need to make it easier to install...

1. Glad to see you back and making more language learning content! 2. I loved LingQ, but the price for lifetime only covers one language. I would've gladly spent the (about?) $200 if it gave me unlimited use of the website forever (like Drops does). Thanks for sharing. Glad to see a free version of LingQ.

Danke!

Also is there an option to turn off the highlighting ? I abhor it because it makes it harder to read. I use a eink screen.

What do you do when you don’t understand the sentence despite the dictionary lookup due to grammar etc

Cool. I've been using FLTR, pretty similar.

Besides native speakers, no-one can really lörn görman, unless your name be Genius. This is a polyglot and native German speaker talking to U.

It appears to me extremely inefficient to consume tons of input just to understand the meaning of "Besen". Looking the word up in a dictionary takes a few seconds only. Done.

I use ChatGPT to convert the raw transcript of the video, if they don't got nice subtitles, into good sentences without or minimal errors for LWT.

Reverso is great for this!

What’s your opinion on

You remembered your password, nice 🙂

do you have any videos on lwt?

Have you tried the combo VocabSieve, KoboReader (available in android and kindle) + anki ? vocabsieve also works with subtitles that are selectable.

Ich probiere die selbe Dinge in zwei Monaten machen, aber für Deutsch. Gibt es ein Programm wie Learning with texts oder Lute für Android? Hast du Empfehlungen für mich(irgendetwas decks)? Viel Glück!

I am a 56 year old fart with tech not to mention just trying to learn Spanish now going since end of March, only 4 months. Very motivated since the USA too much emphasis on STEM now in school, so languages, music, the humanities get kicked to the curb, sad too, since my Dad was a college English prof and Dean from way back when in the 1970s, 1980s....although he and other members of my family literally knew no other languages, as far as I know. Yeah, I know, us monolingual Americans and our country pretty sad now, but watched your "motivational video" and of course plan to keep at it for as long as takes or maybe getting back into French too, since quitting aquiring a skill/s like this is NO option at all for me, unless I want to be bored with banal American films, TV series and depressing politics for the rest of my life. So many, multitude of videos and sites/tech that is a steep learning curve for me, truly overwhelming and just trying to learn now a 2nd language. Main question is, I have a Windows 7 quite old now laptop but still runs like a top. But, your downloading page with all the steps is NOT straightforward for a person like me at all. Am I missing some big thing here or is it that complex and also won't work with my old computer anyway??? Pretty savvy though a "growth process", so I finally found the highlighter in DeepL which is also great for word phrases, words, so have that installed at least now, as also "Immersion translate" for double titles on videos finally, truly great. Never ever liked LingQ though since seemed like a racket when your program obviously does same exact thing, nor Readlang which seemed so limited to me also. I look at reading aids like these and yours like they would also help me improve my vocab in my native English as well, never stop learning, always be improving even at a snail's pace, stagnation is NO option!!

Is there anhthing like Learn with Languages or Lute for andriod?

I am studying Egyptian Arabic and getting nowhere so I am tatally going to do this.. Got me some elementary audio books and away i go.

What if for example I want to speak German with an austrian accent, but the vast majority of content in the language is from Germany? Would I have to take on the German German accent?

What's your opinion on Lingopie?

Putting it in video game terms is so fun!! I tried something similar befpre but couldnt stick to it, i think tracking my progress could help

What about shadowing audiobooks?

What about just shadowing audiobooks like Harry Potter?

What is your opinion on shadowing books like Harry Potter instead of native speakers? Still helpful? Or will it make you speak in an odd fashion? I’m asking because I find it easier and find more breadth of vocabulary doing this, but I can’t help but feel I would be better off shadowing natives via podcasts etc.

Where do you find comprehensible input for arab and japanese?

Just use Kobo Reader Rocks, thank me later.

That's cool an all, but what did you notice, how much better did your comprehension (& production) get, was there diminishing returns or compounding effects, how much of the passive listening could you focus on? That's what I as a viewer am mostly interested in - not your history or your spreadsheet.

Hey so do you recommend I start monolingual? Im at 4500 or so japanese words so far and I really want to boost my progress in terms of readability

In letzer Zeit habe ich mit dieser Methode Deustch gelernt. Es ist sehr effektiv, aber ich würde eine Mischung mit anderen Methoden empfehlen. Ein bisschen Grammatik wird dir bei den Details hilfen!

Wie sieht's heute mit deinem Deutsch aus? Hat alles geklappt!

how to limit the number of learning?

Wonderful

I learned Spanish for 10 years to no avail, then someone introduced me to comprehensible input 4 years ago and my progress skyrocketed. I am now in a level where I no longer have problems conversing with someone in Spanish.

bro, what anki decks did you use for german B1

Stephen Krashen has a famous video , using teaching the German language to introduce the concept of 'comprehensible input' to an expectant world. He draws a circle, and then draws a nose on it, and says 'die Nase'. He points to his head and says 'Kopf'. He writes the symbol '2' and then says 'Zwei'. Allegedly, this is 'comprehensible input'.... I beg to differ. How in the world is that not the very definition of explicit instruction, when Duolingo showing you a picture of an apple with the words 'La manzana' underneath is held up as an exemplar of explicit instruction?

I do not understand how a beginner can learn by reading something as advanced as Harry Potter...? Even if I know the individual words it is far from automatic that I will understand the sentence. The sentence structure in French many times makes no logical sense to me. I require an actual teacher on hand to explain. A dictionary alone doesn't cut it

British journalist Andrew Marr is my parent for learning pronunciation.

You sound like Omar Rudburg

Don't learn vocabulary, don't learn grammar, don't look words up! In the end it will just be don't do anything, in fact don't bother at all.

Look at the Birkenbihl method for learning languages.

If you’re learning a language very very different pronunciation, how do you use anki? Wouldn’t you be vocalizing it wrong in your head?

Language Reactor addon for chrome works good for this

Speaking any language is simple if you live in that language environment for some time totally immersing. Speaking has two layers such as sounds and meanings. You can't learn this you have to acquire it through habit formation. Speaking comes to you just like infecting a disease when you living in the infected.

Get down to the point, dude...

You can't learn a language overnight.

Did you download LWT to your PC? I have a Mac and am having trouble downloading

Going through a similar journey. Learned German to pretty good comprehension, switching to Spanish. Glad to see you back!
