      i am currently studying across several language pairs, heavily reviewing and writing them as often as I can. One I learned a little in my youth. In both now, I mix the audio and subtitles which has been so much fun every time I understand or can the joke or character's intention. I learned too that those translations are sometimes not true to meaning. I also use keywords in Spanish, German etc to search for videos in those target languages.
      Key to retaining anything is to constant review. I have several markers of how well I am doing.
      -- first when I can guess.
      -- second when I know absolutely my choice is wrong even without knowing the word.
      -- third when I know all the other choices are wrong.
      -- then when the word seems to come automatically as if implanted in my subconscious.
      I've started using them in my calendar, journal and notes, unless it's intended for others or important records. I study everyday at least 15-30 minutes. Every day or at least several consecutive days.

    Duolingo lower than videogames? Don't know about that. On my 400-th day of Duolingo I had a solid B1 and was able to travel to Madrid for a month and talk with the locals. It should be B-tier. While it might not make you fluent, it exposes you to all spects of the language - reading and listening, writing and speaking. It gives you some grammar, but doesn't overwhelm you. And it's super easy to use - you just follow the lessons. It's underrated.

    • @ryanl483
      @ryanl483 16 дней назад +5

      Agreed. I think Duolingo should be higher. It won't make you fluent and it doesn't pretend to, with B2 being its highest possible grade. Then you would need to find other, more immersive, methods. As a tool to get you from from A1-B2, however, I think it's great.

    i have been living in spain for 2.5 years and i still speak no spanish with broken spanglish.
    just because you are inside a country and living doesn't mean you will become fluent . You really need to find hte right people to practice spanish with ..spain is becoming very international that 1/3 people you meet will speak english well to you. I have tried to speak spanish outside to locals and they respond back to me in english becaues they are so frustrated trying to figure out what im saying and makes me feel so dumb.
    I think the bottom like is motivation and drive. Without that it doesn't matter if you live in spain or not.

    This is a great overview of options. I would rate RUclips higher on ease. It's the primary (almost exclusive) way I learned Spanish for the first 8 months and I continue to use it to advance (although now I focus on teachers whose videos are entirely or almost entirely in Spanish, e.g., Hola Spanish, Español con Juan, etc.). Although you have to search a bit for good teachers, some of the best (e.g., The Language Tutor, Qroo Paul, and others) have structured series on their channels to help people build their knowledge in a logical way.

    For those who didnt take language classes seriously in high school like i did because imo us schools only focus on suffixes and words but never properly teach students how to properly apply said lessons in conversations. A friend of mine whose peruvian reccomend duoling for me to learn spanish as a beginner, but only as a “stepping stone” to get merely a introduction to some of the basics of another language. It works better as a tool to use alongside other tools and lessons. After that you need to do more learning a language requires dedication and yes it can be expensive depending on the methods one has or uses to learn it. But i hear its worth it.

    If you are planning to learn any language not just Spanish you must use all of these methods even the ones with fewer stars (except the sleep one because it's not even logical) I'm telling you this out of my personal experience as a polyglot, I'm a native arab and I learned french, English, some Chinese and some Japanese using all of these methods, you just need to choose a language that you love so that you can always be motivated, it might seem hard but if you really love the language you're learning you'll achieve your fluency goals for sure.

    I saw a great bit of advice - watch a limited number of Spanish (or any language) Ted talks, say 5-10. These will usually cover good vocab and pronunciation in real context. Watch them repeatedly, with translation subtitles on initially, then off, basically learn how to speak along with the Ted Talk. Also learn the main conjunctive verbs (about 50 main ones) and practise using them.
    Immerse yourself in the language thereafter through Music, TV, reading, writing and esp speaking as much/frequently as possible. The tools help, but doing really drives home the learning.

    Actually… I think Duolingo is not that terrible. I have just started learning French there. I think that as long as I don’t use Duolingo as my main learning, I will be able to progress. For example, I spend about 30min a day on Duolingo + I constantly immerse myself in the language by watching films/videos is French even though I understand very little. Then I also watch videos on RUclips and soon when I understand the structure of sentences a bit better I will start my own little diary/notebook where I will write my own sentences and search for new words to learn. I also have friends who speak French (natives) who check my prononciation. But I really enjoy Duolingo, I don’t want to throw it away. Can I succeed with this plan??
    Also - I am fluent in English, but I’ve only spoken it for about 6 years, so I use the same methods to learn a third language that helped me to learn a second language

      ​@@JerryRegistre​​​ I challenge you to take the Clozemaster 10 languages 10 questions each challenge. Pick any 10 languages video yourself taking the challenge and inspire us. (whether you have studied are familiar with or not). This is a fun opportunity to showcase your talent with a little bit of humility proving you too are human and still a language learner. You can put the flags of the 10 languages you choose for the challenge in both the thumbnail and the title and tag the video as #takingtheclozemaster 10 languages challenge. While also tagging the languages of the challenge. When choosing from a diverse variety of languages consider this, to include some of those you're familiar with, those that you are not, and those that you will later learn. Choosing to include a conlang like Interlingua and an ancient language like Latin will keep the challenge diverse while bringing recognition to these languages (you may surprise yourself). Consider getting a hold of Clozemaster they may be interested in sponsoring the video. We as a community of language Learners need a challenge that we can all appreciate and try together. To get the most out of the video challenge adjust the settings as follows: put the skills to listening, the question count to 10, and the mode to multiple choice. Then you can adjust the account to dark mode (as it's more attractive) and the default speed to 75% for better hearing the questions. Doing a dry run will ensure all the settings are correct. Keep a notepad by your side to keep track of the language scores. Before you end the video it would be nice if you encouraged other polyglots and language Learners to take up the challenge.

I think Duolingo is helpful because I actually learn and retain most of it. I feel like once I can get enough words and phrases that I can listen to a sentence and get the gist of it then I can start using context clues to figure out what I don’t know.

    I tried the movie method. There are a lot of Disney movies that I know by heart. So I figured by switching the language to Spanish I would easily learn. But they were talking too fast for me to understand so I turned on the subtitles. I quickly learn the subtitles do not match the words coming out of the mouth.

    • @trevinodude
      @trevinodude 5 месяцев назад

      It also depends on the movies, I learned. One way to ease yourself into learning Spanish by listening (according to my Mom who used this method as one of her tricks to learn English when she came to the USA) to music… but also looking up the lyrics so you can break down the parts of a song you can’t understand due to the speed of the singer or the inflection they used when singing. Essentially, using the lyrics to force learning at your own pace. Never actually tried it myself in my Spanish learning journey, but I’m going to try this for myself. Hopefully this suggestion helps somehow.

      I did the tier itself based on effectiveness (left a small note on this in the video) since the core question for a lot of people is what’s the best way to learn fast. And then I included the cost and ease ratings.
      The hope is that people can filter out methods that pass their budget (or ease if they have a threshold there), and then they can pick the most effective method left.
      I asked a few language friends what would be most helpful, and they thought that this route would be better for them rather than balancing across all 3 factors for the tier ranking.

    What video games did you like for learning spanish?

      I used video games late in my Spanish journey when I was hovering around intermediate/advanced, so I mostly used League of Legends (flipped settings to Spanish and found people on Discord to play with in Spanish). I'm working on something to share for all the games I used to learn English, since I started from 0 with video games there.

    I see "learn it through watching TV" for a lot of languages and honestly I don't see how it can be that effective. Outside some notable repeating words (hello, goodbye) there's just too much chance of getting words wrong and barking up the wrong tree, and that will harm your ability to learn. This applies to music even more so. I mean, how many times have you misheard lyrics in your own language? And you plan to learn _another_ language this way? That's goofy.

    1:22 B2 is not "you can have simple conversations", that's A2. And you cannot get to B2 using Duolingo, you can get to A2 at most.
