    Hi Jo! I'm a 19-year-old American and have only ever spoken English, but recently I visited Italy with my family and it was honestly like a whole new world opening up to me. I'm a huge people person so it was kind of frustrating only being able to say things like 'ciao' and 'io parlo inglese' to communicate with non-English speakers. I'm starting to seriously learn Italian now for the day I go back and reconnect with some of the sweet people that I met during my visit, and I just wanted to say that your content is very inspiring for me and makes me excited to enter into this new opportunity and journey, despite all the frustrations that I know will come with it.

Essentially certain languages she learned without the involvement of her other languages and she would have conversations in italian and mixup swedish. I'll link the video below, but it has alot of great exercises to help.

(I can't type in korean on my computer). I understand it when people say that if you speak a language and try to learn another that's part of the same branch it's easier, but I enjoy learning korean more than I enjoy learning spanish. A lot of the times when im trying to speak spanish im unsure whether the im talking spanish or just using a portuguese word in spanish pronunciation. Whereas in korean everything is new and i know exactly where i am on the language. Also, whenever I'm learning something new, I always speak the last language i learned. Quando eu tava aprendendo francês, pensava muito em inglês, aprendendo espanhol, penso muito em francês, e etc. The switching is also ever present, i love it, but it is also frustrating when I forget the word i want in the language im speaking and can only remember the one in other language

    I've been learning Spanish for the past two months, and I really notice that from the first week as a beginner, the words, and the phrases were so romanticizing😊😊, and after a while, they started to mix in my brain making it difficult. 😂
    I like the way you've made me to understand the theory of language learning, that is, what happens when you are at this stage of learning. Rather than using paper and pen, I like using software flashcards for studies, in which I've been used to.

Lo estoy aprendiendo ahora mismo. I LOOOOOOVE languages. Can't say if it is hard to learn. The only two I learned/am learning are German and Spanish; the other languages were a package deal I received at home, during infancy. Everything is easy then!!! Besides, I like it so much (the studying new languages part) that I can't say if it is difficult or not. Commitment, that's what it's all about, I guess.

    The brain mixup thing is the main reason why I don’t learn Italian or Portugese after having learned French and Spanish. The last language I learned to a conversational level was Spanish. Already knowing French, that was relatively easy. And it spoiled me. Because right now, I’m learning Mandarin. And I can’t believe how difficult it is: The most frustrating aspect is probably the disconnect between written language and spoken language. But it’s also a fun challenge. 我觉得中文很难,但是我也很喜欢中国人和中国文化。

    The construction analogy is so real lol it really does feel like a work in progress that needs hyper focus and “building another highway” or learning another language while you are still working on a previous one feels messy. I have a hard time doing that. So far, I am only able to focus on one at a time. At least until I’m over the beginning level, then I feel ok learning about another one.

    Ich bin quasi bilingual aufgewachsen. Deutsch und Teochew sind meine Muttersprachen, wobei ich tatsächlich eher nur Deutsch als Muttersprache fließend sprechen kann.
    I am also fluent in English as I’ve taught myself through video consumption and interacting with natives on social media how to actually speak, besides learning English in school.
    我也上了中文课,但是那时候我和本族语同学上了课。我每次听不懂他们说什么。所以我的普通话很差。
    En la escuela he aprendido el español también. Creo que es una lengua muy bonita. Pero no puedo hablar en conversaciones. Mi español es muy básico con muchos errores. Pero ahora estoy mejorando mis habilidades en español.
    و أنا بتعالم العربي مصري، لكن انا بتكلم شوية بس. أنا بحب العربي.
    There probably were errors in Mandarin, Spanish and Arabic as I don’t speak them well. But I did manage to teach myself English fluently. And regarding your question, yes language learning gets easier but also harder the more you learn. It’s both, but in different ways, like you said.
    What makes it easier, I think, is that the general learning process becomes more accessible and tangible, as one has accumulated many different strategies over time and already has been through several language learning journeys.
    But on the other hand it can also get confusing if the acquired languages aren’t fully “ripe”. In a sense of being fluent. I am definitely guilty of “language learning jumping” where I don’t finish a language until I’m fluent. Hence I do mix up many words between different languages, especially if they’re from similar language families.
    And even if languages aren’t from a similar language root, I still sometimes mix up some languages. For some strange reason I’ve been mixing up Spanish and Egyptian Arabic, even though they’re from totally different language families. It’s a mystery to me honestly. Hopefully this struggle ends when I finish my goal of learning Spanish until fluency (a recent goal of mine).
    I actually discovered your channel after having looked for Egyptian Arabic videos. Very entertaining!
    I’m also very impressed of your progress in Flemish. It seems like you speak quite early in your language journey! I am quite the opposite but it did inspire me to maybe break off my routine and just dip into realms of speaking a little earlier than I feel comfortable in. We’ll see but I am definitely in awe of your progress and dedication! 😄

    I‘d say I‘m fluent in 5 languages. Yet two of them are Spanish and Italian. If I focus on one the other gets weaker. I‘m still trying to figure out how to overcome this.
    Regarding the question if language learning gets easier after having studied many languages. I‘d say yes. I‘m now learning Turkish and Grammar patterns as well as phonemes are way easier to distinguish and understand for me. It really helps me to grasp the language faster because I can use the language knowledge of the other languages (even if they are not in the same language family). So the Grammar and Pronunciation aspects get easier (imo) but the output is still the hardest part.

That happend right before COViD started, at the end of 2019, so we ended up not going but i enjoyed the language study so much that i kept it going for 5 years now.)
    Italian ( I’ve been learning Italian for the last few months)
    Russian ( I like the way it sounds lol this is my most recent language)
    Honorable mention:
    Portuguese: i once tried learning portuguese but at that time my love for languages wasn’t as strong as it is now, so i stopped a short while after but…… my twin bro speaks it semi-fluently so i try to speak to him in portuguese, every chance i get.
    The funny thing is most brazilian people i’ve interacted with in the past could somewhat understand my native language if i spoke slowly.
    So therefore, i could prolly pick it up easily if i were to relearn Portuguese.

    gosh i totally relate: the italian-spanish highways in my brain are always crossing each other.
    i'm not super disciplined learning languages, but what i noticed with time is that understanding becomes easier (a conversation, a movie without subtitles...), but talking doesn't get necessarily easier - the effort to drill the verbs and all is ... the same, maybe.

    Mi piace moltissimo imparare le lingue. Adesso sto studiando l’italiano con il mio marito que nasceu no Brasil. A gente fala português, espanhol, inglês, francês y ahora estamos aprendiendo el italiano, de hecho vamos a Italia esta semana para hacer un curso de italiano juntos. Najifunza pia Kiswahili kwa sababu nafanya kazi katika maendeleo ya kimataifa na nina miradi Tanzania na Kenya. Saya juga sedang belajar bahasa Indonesia karena orang tua saya dari Indonesia dan saya ingin menjaga hubungan saya dengan negara tempat orang tua saya dibesarkan. Je parle français et anglais tous les jours au bureau car je travaille dans le domaine du développement international et j’ai des collègues du monde entier so I usually speak 4 or 5 languages per week with family, friends and colleagues.

    That is so true. I started learning Chinese, then started learning Spanish 3 months later. Whenever my brain could not think of the word in the language I was speaking, it substituted with the other. They are not even close to the same, so I think I learned too fast with no enough depth, but it was interesting how thinks connect in our brains.

    Het wordt niet noodzakelijk makkelijker ma adesso ho una strategia per imparare. ça prends beaucoup de temps et du travail pero sé la manera que me conviene. You basically have the tools that work for you, wat het proces makkelijker maakt, but you still have to put in the work.

    C'est tres difficile! Jestem z Polski, więc mówię po Polsku, English has always been easy for me y cuando empeze a viajar tambien pude hablar un poco de español. Agora quero ir para o Brasil, entao estou aprendendo portugues aber auch ich habe viele deutsche freunde und so versuche ich, ein bisschen Deutsch zu sprechen. C'est la meme chose pour le francais :)) I think it does get easier and I've noticed hat my bran gets extra flexible when I switch countries often so suddenly I speak Italian just because I know enough similar languages to patch together a conversation. But I also get a brain freeze in French because I have to filter out all the Spanish and Portuguese words first :)) Maybe, the more languages the easier it gets but also the older you get the slower the construction workers in your brain become?

    Eu sei português por ter nascido e crescido no Brasil. I know english because I moved to the U.S. , but I'm still not fluent because I'm really shy to practice my speaking skills, but I'm can understand pretty well. Estoy aprendiendo español con un curso en mi escuela, me parece interesante lo parecidos que son el español y el portugués, y al mismo tiempo son muy diferentes. 私も日本語を勉強しています。その理由は、日本を旅行したいからです。その文化を知り、ネイティブの人々と話せるようになりたいからです。また、言語、特に文字がとても美しいと思うからです。インターネットの情報だけを使って独学で勉強してみます . For now, these are the only languages that I know/I'm interested in learning, but maybe I will try to learn others. My goal is to become a polyglot before I turn 18!

    It's not that people just expect higher quality but once you're realy good and tu perds ton accents dans la langue les personnes partent du principe que tu es native speaker and they just don't get it if you confundes palavras ou não tens o vocabulário certo e a palavra que corresponde melhor. Á 10 anos a viver em França e o melhor que me podem dizer ainda é "oh mais t'es portugaise ? mais tu parles si bien et t'as même pas d'accent!"
    Love your work !

    English is my first language but I have studied a ton of other ones. Le français est ma 2eme langue et j l'étudiais dequis 8 ans. A esta momento, estudio español en la universidad, pero es un poquito difícil porque cuando hablo en español, a veces cambio al italiano. Parlo solo un puo d'italiano perche sono un cantante professionista e noi come cantanti dobbiamo studiare l'italiano fin dalla giovane età. I have also studied Salish (the native language of where I am from) as well as Mandarin, Greek, German, Dutch, Norwegian, Farsi, and more but I am not proficient in any of those languages lol

    With each language, it makes me feel more like I have a better sense of how to do it...but doesn't get "easier" so much as "more efficient," if that.

    :)) brasileira aqui :D A good thing is that I got pretty good in English pretty early in life. So when I got in to language-learning as a hobby, I already had well established English habits. Pero, ahora estoy aprendiendo español y no me acuerdo de escuchar podcasts en la lengua, no conozco tantos youtubers ... Entonces, tengo menos tiempo de exposición en la lengua.
    But my goal is to finish 2025 fluent in spanish. I have this crazy life goal of being fluent in 1 language for each decade of my life.
    (So, 3 languages and some others in beginner level)
