I personally think that learning 2 langs at the same time can help me enjoy more language learning. Some few months ago I was like "iM gONna LeaRn sPAniSh" And as I progress I notice that I was getting bored of the process but then I invited a new language, Japanese and it gave my learning experience more fun
Learning a language is not hard. It just takes time. You must be willing and never give up. Most important of all you must be patient. Good luck y'all :3!
i m learning Japanese, Spanish, French, Italian and Korea at the same time. at the end of this year, I will come back to give my update. see you then, if you are interested
2:05 I totally agree with you. I commented on your last video about me learning German and Spanish simultaneously from zero in 2018 and how it didn't work out for me so I dropped Spanish. After spending 2 years in learning German alone, I recently started learning French. Learning the two languages is now much much easier after progressing with the earlier language (German). Vielen Dank für das tolle Video.
It definitely is easier to learn a two languages, when they are not at the same level. Es freut mich, dass du es geschafft hast, Deutsch zu lernen. Warum hast du denn Deutsch gelernt?
Hi! I’m currently learning 5 languages at the same time (literally): French, Italian, Romanian, Catalan, and Portuguese. I already am a native speaker of Spanish so it’s very easy for me to understand most of these. For me the easiest ones are Portuguese because it’s just Spanish but slightly different, and Romanian since it’s the one with the most difference between all 6. I don’t get any word confused somehow, but some are slightly harder than the others. I wish well on your journey! Bonne journée/Bonne nuit, ami!
I loved how you stopped just to explain what backburner means, girl that's the kind of language awareness we wantttttt haha also forgetting a word of your own language because it's all a little mixed up, so relatable
I want to learn both Korean and French at the same time, but it's hard because of school I barely have time to do anything aside from house chores, but I this year I'm gonna do my best to study both
@@manoela7373 Korean is hard hehhe but don't let that discourage you, I recommend to start Korean and focus on it until you can get familiar with it and study it along with French
Ive studied Spanish and Portuguese at the same time. Its hard at first, but eventually you learn to separate them. I think in the long run its better off done that way because now I can completely separate them UNLESS I hear the other spoken. Like if I am listening to Spanish music, I am going to end up speaking Portuñol if I try to speak Portuguese and vice versa.
Even native speakers struggle to separate them... I'd imagine it'd be extremely difficult to learn them both at the same time. In Brazil very few people can actually speak (proper) Spanish because it takes a lot of dedication to make your brain understand that Portuguese and Spanish are separate languages
They're very similar languages, so I guess you found it easier to study them together. Portuguese is my native language, and while I've never studied Spanish, I can understand them quite easily 😊
i am learning EIGHT languages at once! i am learning spanish, german, french, mandrin, russian, arabic, japanese, and greek at once. remind me to update at the end of 2024!
I could not seriously learn two languages from the same family at the same time. I remember when I first started studying French and Arabic at the same time a couple years ago, people thought I was crazy! In reality the two are so different that it was actually fairly easy to switch my brain from studying one to the other. Even now, my top languages are French, Arabic, and Indonesian--all very different! Though I'm dabbling in Spanish and Italian as well, I'm being careful not to focus too much on them so I don't get confused, haha!
Wow! French and Arabic are a power combo too because they'll equip you quite nicely to travel to northern Africa if you want to :) My sister and I went to Morocco in 2019 (I speak French and she speaks Arabic) and although the Moroccan dialect is crazy we were unstoppable! With regard to your other langs, it sounds like a great lineup. Good luck :)
NO WAY Elysse I literally cut out the newborn baby analogy with languages out of a video the other day, I view it the exact same way haha I definitely have found for me the "don't learn 2 languages from the same family at once" advice doesn't apply so much, I found doing Spanish and Italian at once really helpful for both, but I can also understand how the similarities and connections that I found helped me improve both could cause others to mix them up... I really feel like (like anything in language learning) it's all a process to play around with and find what works best for each person individually as opposed to something that has a blanket answer. Same with how I like to have multiple languages per day in my life as I aim to have them as integrated into my life and a part of me as possible and when I've ignored languages for a while I find my confidence lost in those and just unhappy I've been apart from them. Overall I definitely don't think learning multiple at the same time is as scary as it's often made out to be, especially when you're in a position where some of the languages are in your life at school/work/in your relationship. A lot of it is just like in school itself, studying multiple subjects likely didn't set any of us too far back and in many cases probably assisted in the others, so why can't that apply to our learning outside of school? Then again this is all coming from someone who decided to do 2 degrees and 2 minors, so clearly I'm someone that likes to have a lot going on lol Love the video as always
That’s so true, I guess not all incorporation of languages is always “studying”. I watch media in Spanish everyday, same with German sometimes, but I’m currently on Portuguese!! I guess I just mean I don’t personally like mixing active study like drills and note taking and lessons. There’s an interesting point too, cause I often see so much overlap of principles between my majors and minors, so it’s cool to recognize stuff from other languages. I just wish they would stay in their own lane. And thank you chica!!!
For 2021, I am learning two dead languages at the same time. Greek and Latin. For the two languages I decided to spend three days a week on Greek and two on Latin because I already have knowledge in Latin. As for modern languages, I am trying to become more accustomed to using subjunctive in French, the present perfect in Spanish along with eventually learning it's subjunctive, and I am also starting to learn Hindi. One thing that I have learned, in regards to learning other languages is to make sure each language you are studying is at a different level than another. As well as, separating the acquisition of each language by changing your writing style. Such as when learning French, I write in cursive. Where as in German, I nearly always write in print.
It's nice to have such specific goals and tasks in each language. and that's such an interesting point about writing style, it makes me wish I could write in cursive and try it out!
I really like how you go straight to the point in your videos and that you keep it real. A lot of people just want to show off to get views!! Great job Elyssinha!
What makes learning my 4 languages at the same time (French,Italian,Spanish and French) easier,is that I have persons in my life who I speak to everyday that speaks those languages natively. I practice with them everyday, and they also provide their assistance and correct my mistakes. So just evaluate yourself and decide the best approach.
Great video! Blocking out time may be more effective, and it might work for some people, but I can never bring myself to do day-by-day switch-ups. I'm more of a "do what I want when I feel like it" kind of learner lol, so hardcore planning doesn't usually work for me. I can do longer periods of "focus" in one language versus another. This month, for example, I'm going to try and focus on my beginner-level Japanese (with my high-level Korean in the background when I feel like doing something else) before switching over to intermediate Chinese (with Korean still in the background). But in general, I just go with the flow. :)
True, I did that lax kind of approach last year for the last 6 months and I feel like I just wasn't good at holding myself accountable. It's good that you've found your shtick though, good luck!
Congrats on being such a young polygon! I’m 33, and native to English and Spanish, but I recently got into the idea of learning Chinese Mandarin, Hindi, Arabic, and Swahili, reasoning that this would allow me to talk to over half the world and in all continents/ major regions (Swahili is #1 African language, and high estimates by Harvard and UNESCO rank it at over 200M speakers, and I hope it can one day become the official African language). Of course, Russian, French, Bengali, Portuguese, German and Urdu all have good reasons to ask to be learned, but I feel that most people from those countries should know English, Spanish, Hindi etc.
@@Carla-ou2yb I think it would be great, to help each other learn languages. I would be happy to help you or anyone else with Russian either. Personally I believe, speaking with natives is only good when you have at least reached A1.
Thank you very much, I was one of those who requested the video. I have B2, in English, and I have started studying German. I am planning to study Scandinavian languages later on, and will be studying Latin as well. Your video helped me to create the right strategy for me. Thank you very much.
I've been studying German for 3 years and I LOVE the language i literally do it for fun. I've been wanting to learn Japanese for a long time. I'm starting by just memorizing hiragana and takana to set a solid foundation
I know english pretty well, so I'm thinking about to learn french and german, but i don't know how to start. I actually don't remember how i started learning english
I can recommend the app Babbel. Or/and a good book plus spaced repetition flashcard app for vocabulary 🙂 and then peace by beace. Better slow but evolving.
I can't say anything about busuu German classes because I'm native German. But I can say busuu Japanese A1 class is awsome. Busuu Polish classes are very poor and I would not recommend them. Because there is no grammar and just vocabulary. Which you can't really connect because polish grammar is highly complex. For polish Babbel is my favorite language app. The quality is high in every language I have tried.
I've already watched a few videos on this topic but I felt like I got a new perspective from this one :) also I appreciate that you don't assume everyone watching is a native speaker of English
Trabajar como tutora de inglés me ha hecho mil veces más consciente de nuestras expresiones y cuáles son menos comunes jajaja, me alegra saber que te gustó
i studying german (main) and korean (little by little, lots of immersion!) atm, and im soooooo excited to build those up to a strong enough level to move on to portuguese, thai, or polish. i dont know which one yet, but the fact that there's a whole entire world of languages out there is highkey AMAZING to me
Nice video! I learned English and French at the same time and it worked perfectly, in many cases both languages helped me to understand better linguistic aspects from each of them.
I actually heard that it’s pretty smart to learn multiple languages because once you get past a certain stage you’ll be able to compare and contrast them. I am “learning” 8 languages too: French, Spanish, Korean, Japanese, Italian, Chinese Mandarin, Portuguese, and Arabic. I have more experience with French and Spanish since I’ve been learning them longer. Naturally, some language skills are stronger than others but I’m good with Hangul and Japanese Kana. I know with most of them I will never be fluent but it’s still fun to learn. With the Romance languages I am learning I love being able to have a general idea of what something means because I’m already fluent with French and Spanish. I see Chinese Mandarin and Arabic as more brain exercises because they are the most challenging to me. Italian and Portuguese I just kind of threw in because I was getting bored with French and Spanish so I wanted the whole set lol. I watch a ton of East Asian films and TV shows so learning Korean and Japanese was just an added bonus. Even if I am not strong in them, I know what people are talking about without subtitles so to me that’s an accomplishment. I say all that to say, people learn differently and not everyone’s language goals are the same. If you want to learn 20 languages just because you feel like it then I say go for it. Obviously if you have plans to do something like relocate to a country that speak certain languages then your priority should be spent on that.
I'm learning Spanish and Russian at the same time. Just getting started and I love it! It's not hard to me. My brother is fluent in Spanish, Portuguese, and French. My sister is learning Tibetan. Mon Feb 7 2022
Hey Nice Channel! I speak Portuguese, English and Spanish and last week I started to study French and Italian. I hope to take some tips here with you! Success!!
Cool idea, I was dabbling in French and started to really enjoy watching French twitch streamers where as with my German, i'm still studying using Busuu and passed my A1 test the other day! I agree using different routines/resources is the way forward! Great video!
Of course you CAN learn that many languages at the same time. But you will spread your self too thin. Fluency takes so many years to achieve. Dividing your time up across different languages only makes that process wayyyy longer. I’m not trying to put down anyone who wants to learn multiple languages at the same time. But you need to be realistic. Learning just one languages is a huge feat to accomplish.
Just remember Elysse (i believe) is studying a language based course at university so she naturally has a lot more time to focus on languages than say someone who has a full time job orare in high school. On top of that Elysse is clearly extremely talented and shes clearly hardwired be able to pick this kind of thing up a lot easier than most people. Dont get me wrong she clearly works harder than probably most of us as well, but I guess for her it doesnt feel like shes having to spread herself thin, even tho we would feel like we were
I appreciate this comment, but I don't hold what I say to be the ultimate truth of course. It all depends on what works for you. I don't think I would ever balance more than three at a time, from what I know about myself. If your priority is to learn a language as fast as you can, of course more attention is going to make you more successful! Thank you for your insight
Hi Max-- I study digital media at school, but I do have 2 minors in Spanish & American Sign Language! Therefore like I said in the video I do get a lot of language exposure just from school. And hey, I don't want you to think that my success in language learning is something you have to be 'hardwired' with-- I work just as diligently as any language learner. I might be good at memorization, but the rest comes from discipline! I just don't want anyone to think it's unattainable to be multilingual or that it's something genetic
@@elyssedavega my mistake! I knew you had done some language courses so i just assumed. And i completely agree with that. Like i said, you clearly work extremely hard and youve inspired me to work as hard as i can in learning german, i attribute a large amount of my success to your videos. I was just trying to point out you had an advantage to most people, thats not anything derogatory at all
@@maxketley681 hey that’s cool that your are learning German! I am too! If you are in to cooking/baking check out “Sally’s Welt” here on YT. All her videos have CC as well.
That baby analogy you used for learning new languages was perfect. I wish you the best of luck this year on your holy quest. I look forward to seeing everything you do in 2021; I've got season tickets to the whole thing haha. Inspiring as always.
Especially if they come from the same branch or family. I'm intermediate in Spanish, but am learning Italian, French, and Romanian all at once. It's not as hard as I thought it would be.
I agree, I'm learning Spanish, Romanian and Italian and it isn't bad at all however I didn't start them all at the same time. Occasionally I add Italian words to Romanian but not often enough to drop one of them.
Swedish language is a mandatory at school here in Finland but I was super bad at it back then, now I'm trying to get back to it again. Kinda also wanting to study german and russian too since russian is so used in eastern Finland and german seems to be very appreciated at my career. What is getting in the way is my very short-lived interests because of ADHD so that's something I gotta fight with. I'll keep watching your videos, they seem helpful.
This video is so helpful for me! In 2024 I’m hoping to continue to grow in ASL and Tagalog but I want to self study Spanish and study Chinese at university come fall 2024. To hear about the helpfulness of having “academics languages and lots of separateness is really encouraging!
I liked your analogy about new languages being like babies, requiring more time and attention than languages you already have a higher level. It matches my experience with english (that I've been studying for a long time and already have a quite comfortable level, though I'm still not fluent) and italian (which I started to study in 2020 and I'm still at a basic level). My italian requires way more time and attention. I think I'll wait a little till I get a more intermediate level at italian, and then I'll start to learn another language.
I agree with your perspective here! I want to make a whole video about studying with anxiety because... for me, learning multiple things at once is crucial to being able to effectively learn. Up until recently, I only studied one language but I was always working on or studying other things outside of that (instruments, academic fields, cooking, etc.) I think when I am only focusing on one thing, it makes it easy for me to enter into a spiral of thinking I should /always/ be studying and then I feel shame when I'm not. By introducing another language into my studying, I've already started to be more effective because I realize my time studying each language is finite and I need to make the most out of it, rather than slowly chip away at every waking minute. Not sure if that makes sense, but as someone with OCD (which can present similarly to ADHD), diversifying what I'm studying and learning is super beneficial.
I can understand that, I’m sorry it’s given you trouble! Try not to hold yourself to the same standards as others, not everyone is in the same situation of course. Keep going
Am studying German and Italian at the same time because I read that studying a very different second language, helps the first language. Also want to holiday in Italy. My German is a lot more advanced than my Italian. Can do both languages in the same session.
the first two has been so important to me throughout my language learning journey, I've been studying french for about 1 year and a half and a couple of weeks ago I started with german, they're from different roots so I won't mix them up and also I gave enough time to be comfortable with my french level before going into a new language
Cool! I've been studying English for 2 years, and I already have some progress, I can able to understand videos like you, and I started to learn 2 mount ago japanese, and I agree with you, if you will study language in 0, it will gets much harder to study.
I’m learning PT, IT, FR and GE together on Duolingo. What’s good about this is that Duo doesn’t teach you the same areas consistently in every language. For example PT lesson 1 would be traveling IT lesson 1 would be introductions FR lesson 1 would be plurals These aren’t actually the lesson 1 for each one, but they don’t overlap in the subjects. They do eventually later as they all will cover all the subjects eventually if that makes sense. I love it.
I’m studying Romanian, Italian, and Portuguese. Luckily my mind decided to let me tell the difference, it turns out a lot of people get them mixed up. For me, it’s easy to find the differences and not get mixed up. I guess I got lucky :p
1:00 I RECOMMEND you study languages of same family at the same time. Because Spanish and Portuguese are now going on at the same time, I make a clearer distinction between them, as they are in different classrooms with different people. If I studied them separately, I would be more confused
this is great! I was getting frustrated because I wanted to learn German and ucranian but felt like if I was going to learn a language it should be spanish (I live in NW America ) so it's really great to hear that that kind of studying works from someone who actually uses it. I work really well switching back and forth, doing a little bit of this, then that, but I thought that would be too much if I was learning whole languages
Same 😂 Spanish for 3 days(Spanish is mostly important) and Portuguese for 2 days. My 4 language would be Italian and my 5th language I’m thinking about either Swahili, German, Afrikaans, or Zulu 🤔
I think that focusing on one language is the best option, but I have a strong incentive to study more xd. I'm gonna study 5 languages this year (including my native one xd). And I'm gonna dabble in Korean (I'll begin studying it maybe a few years from now). But yeah, if you don't need to learn more than one language, don't.
I'm studying 6 languaged at the same time: french, russian, hindi, spanish, greek and arabic. Right now I'm studying deeper french and russian (grammar and vocabulary books, podcasts, Duolingo, music and movies), and the others I'm just learning the basics, getting a good base knowledge (same as above, but without using books or academic materials). All of them are brand new languages for me, except spanish, which I have already completed levels A1 and A2. Spanish also shares a lot of similareties with my mother language, portuguese (I'm from Brazil) which make things way easier. For me at least, so far, so good! And the best thing about learning new languages are all the cultural knowledge that comes with it! I've been reading, listening and watching things about France, Russia, India, Spain, Greece and all the Arab countries, and it's so amazing and enriching!
I have three languages to learn, French Korean and Spanish, since I have millions of reasons to, hope you wish me luck on doing once a month which works for me! Binge studying one language a month is with a go for me ;)
I'm struggling to even get started learning one! Ever have that moment where you keep banging your head against a brick wall and nothing that you seem to be doing is working? That's me and the Cyrillic alphabet!
oh I dont know if this will help but daria at real Russian club here on youtube really helped me understand the Cyrillic alphabet (it is specific to Russian but it's a great way to start) she is great at helping you understand how to pronounce all the letters
I actually really like studying languages of the same family simultaneously! I know that most people don't, but I don't get them confused, so for me I find it really fun. But I think that you need to test it first before making a huge commitment. 😊
Nachdem ich Deutsch gelernt habe, habe ich angefangen Chinesisch zu lernen. Das ist quasi der Ältere Bruder von Deutsch, was Schwierigkeit angeht haha.
Every person says that about their own language because they know it at a high level and think their second language is less complicated because they know less of it
I've studied several languages before and I'd say German is relatively easy for an English speaker to learn. Both the grammar and vocabulary are pretty similar
Good to know, Ellysse. I, on the other hand, chose to study two languages that are rather similar to each other, which are Mandarin and Tibbetan(they’re both tonal.) So I’ll work on Tibetan for six months and Mandarin for another six.
That first explanation makes so much sense about the different families! In HS I took german and spanish at the same time and mixed words up on occaision and overall it made it difficult. But lately I've been learning Russian and started back up on German, and I don't get them mixed up anywhere near as often except sometimes I might say da instead of ja but that's no big deal to me. The other tips in this video are also really good and make me a lot more confident about steamrolling my way to being polylingual.

I can help u if you want. my ig is oneyearinsweden :) what helps me learning the Finnish case is learning them with "funny" sentence like sentences you'll remember or think of in a situation
Those are some great tips! I’m learning Spanish and Japanese. I’m almost an A1 level in Spanish and am a complete beginner in Japanese. I’ll try swapping each language around each day and using different learning methods. Thanks again
Even though i am fluent in both french and english in addition of my mother tongue which is arabic ... I started losing and forgetting words in these languages when i started learning german .. Let alone learning multiple languages at once .. I could never
Reached a B2-C1 in Spanish and I'm going to begin French soon, I hope it works, because I've never studied 2 languages at once. Btw I'm the brazilian girl that is always commenting on your Instagram stories 😂😂
I’m trying to learn Spanish and German at the same time. I chose German to learn alongside Spanish to learn because the vocabulary isn’t similar so I’m less likely to mix them up
Several months after I started Hebrew I tried to learn a bit of German as well. It didn't work out too well because Hebrew was still a fairly new language. I felt like German was stealing time away from Hebrew. It was also a bit harder than I expected. Hebrew has been intermediate for a while, so I can listen to podcasts and watch RUclips videos. That means my study routine looks quite different than it did as a beginner. That makes it easier to study multiple languages at once. In around October I got back into Icelandic. Since it's a language I've previously studied it's easier to study than German. I usually study 20-30 minutes a day. If it's a weekend I might study more. It can also give me a break from Hebrew without losing momentum or getting bored. I find it's easier to stay motivated when I can take breaks. I like studying one intermediate language and one beginner language at the same time. I can appreciate the progress I've made in my intermediate language and the novelty of the beginner language.
Right now I am studying Thai and have been for a little over 5 months (since mid July). But in August when I had a choice to choose an elective class for university, I chose Mandarin because it interested me and my college does not offer a Thai course :( In my experience, I quickly realized that I would put all my effort into studying Thai through all sorts of mediums, and then when it came time to study Chinese I would not only have no energy but would also just not care to learn the language. I became a bad student and didn't really study the language, but rather just did what I needed to do to get an A in the course. Meanwhile, my Thai excelled and I still feel that I am growing exponentially each day. I relate to your point that you should not study two new languages at the same time, as for even right now the amount of attention that I give to studying Thai is too massive for me to feel comfortable adding another language. Tbh, I also think that I just never was passionate about learning Chinese either. But that is my only experience in trying to learn two languages at the same time, and for me it didn't work well LOL.
I personally think that learning 2 langs at the same time can help me enjoy more language learning. Some few months ago I was like "iM gONna LeaRn sPAniSh"
And as I progress I notice that I was getting bored of the process but then I invited a new language, Japanese and it gave my learning experience more fun
right! i feel so much more refreshed because i recently switched too.
I feel like Im at a similar stage with my Spanish. Gotta add something fun :D
@@kinga6606 What did you add and how is your language learning journey now? :)

If the languages are very different and you're at different stages then it's a lot more manageable to learn multiple languages.

2:05 I totally agree with you. I commented on your last video about me learning German and Spanish simultaneously from zero in 2018 and how it didn't work out for me so I dropped Spanish. After spending 2 years in learning German alone, I recently started learning French. Learning the two languages is now much much easier after progressing with the earlier language (German). Vielen Dank für das tolle Video.
I think when you first start a language you should just focus on that particular one until you can mix another one in, cause you are familiar with it
It definitely is easier to learn a two languages, when they are not at the same level. Es freut mich, dass du es geschafft hast, Deutsch zu lernen. Warum hast du denn Deutsch gelernt?

Hi! I’m currently learning 5 languages at the same time (literally): French, Italian, Romanian, Catalan, and Portuguese. I already am a native speaker of Spanish so it’s very easy for me to understand most of these. For me the easiest ones are Portuguese because it’s just Spanish but slightly different, and Romanian since it’s the one with the most difference between all 6. I don’t get any word confused somehow, but some are slightly harder than the others. I wish well on your journey! Bonne journée/Bonne nuit, ami!

Ive studied Spanish and Portuguese at the same time. Its hard at first, but eventually you learn to separate them. I think in the long run its better off done that way because now I can completely separate them UNLESS I hear the other spoken. Like if I am listening to Spanish music, I am going to end up speaking Portuñol if I try to speak Portuguese and vice versa.
Even native speakers struggle to separate them... I'd imagine it'd be extremely difficult to learn them both at the same time. In Brazil very few people can actually speak (proper) Spanish because it takes a lot of dedication to make your brain understand that Portuguese and Spanish are separate languages
They're very similar languages, so I guess you found it easier to study them together. Portuguese is my native language, and while I've never studied Spanish, I can understand them quite easily 😊
i am learning EIGHT languages at once! i am learning spanish, german, french, mandrin, russian, arabic, japanese, and greek at once. remind me to update at the end of 2024!
It’s not the end of 2024 yet, but would love to hear an update on your progress so far! Hope it's going well :)
@@waftsofpetrichor thank you! i’ve been focusing on spanish and french
@@whoistimira nice! all the best with that 🌻
update?
@ ive just been focusing on spanish 😅
I could not seriously learn two languages from the same family at the same time. I remember when I first started studying French and Arabic at the same time a couple years ago, people thought I was crazy! In reality the two are so different that it was actually fairly easy to switch my brain from studying one to the other. Even now, my top languages are French, Arabic, and Indonesian--all very different! Though I'm dabbling in Spanish and Italian as well, I'm being careful not to focus too much on them so I don't get confused, haha!
Wow! French and Arabic are a power combo too because they'll equip you quite nicely to travel to northern Africa if you want to :) My sister and I went to Morocco in 2019 (I speak French and she speaks Arabic) and although the Moroccan dialect is crazy we were unstoppable! With regard to your other langs, it sounds like a great lineup. Good luck :)
@@elyssedavega That sounds like such a fun trip! Yes, I've always wanted to go to northern Africa. I hope to travel there someday! and thank you :)
hey selah, are you an Indonesian?
Hi ! I’m a French girl and I try to improve my English in talking with native speakers so maybe we can help the other in talking together if u want 😊
I envy you because I love Arabic poetry and writers and I am trying to learn Arabic but it’s so hard Lmao.
Elysse you are literally the coolest person ever I hope you know that. Your Brazilian podcast is a lifesaver and your RUclips channel is a chef’s kiss
😖😖 I don’t deserve such adoration!! Thanks so much for enjoying what I put out :)
Whats her podcast? Im tryna start learning portuguese
@@javisantana1 ao seu ritmo: learn brazilian Portuguese through music
NO WAY Elysse I literally cut out the newborn baby analogy with languages out of a video the other day, I view it the exact same way haha
I definitely have found for me the "don't learn 2 languages from the same family at once" advice doesn't apply so much, I found doing Spanish and Italian at once really helpful for both, but I can also understand how the similarities and connections that I found helped me improve both could cause others to mix them up... I really feel like (like anything in language learning) it's all a process to play around with and find what works best for each person individually as opposed to something that has a blanket answer. Same with how I like to have multiple languages per day in my life as I aim to have them as integrated into my life and a part of me as possible and when I've ignored languages for a while I find my confidence lost in those and just unhappy I've been apart from them.
Overall I definitely don't think learning multiple at the same time is as scary as it's often made out to be, especially when you're in a position where some of the languages are in your life at school/work/in your relationship. A lot of it is just like in school itself, studying multiple subjects likely didn't set any of us too far back and in many cases probably assisted in the others, so why can't that apply to our learning outside of school?
Then again this is all coming from someone who decided to do 2 degrees and 2 minors, so clearly I'm someone that likes to have a lot going on lol
Love the video as always
That’s so true, I guess not all incorporation of languages is always “studying”. I watch media in Spanish everyday, same with German sometimes, but I’m currently on Portuguese!! I guess I just mean I don’t personally like mixing active study like drills and note taking and lessons.
There’s an interesting point too, cause I often see so much overlap of principles between my majors and minors, so it’s cool to recognize stuff from other languages. I just wish they would stay in their own lane. And thank you chica!!!
For 2021, I am learning two dead languages at the same time. Greek and Latin. For the two languages I decided to spend three days a week on Greek and two on Latin because I already have knowledge in Latin.
As for modern languages, I am trying to become more accustomed to using subjunctive in French, the present perfect in Spanish along with eventually learning it's subjunctive, and I am also starting to learn Hindi.
One thing that I have learned, in regards to learning other languages is to make sure each language you are studying is at a different level than another. As well as, separating the acquisition of each language by changing your writing style. Such as when learning French, I write in cursive. Where as in German, I nearly always write in print.
It's nice to have such specific goals and tasks in each language. and that's such an interesting point about writing style, it makes me wish I could write in cursive and try it out!
i hate to break it to you but greek is not a dead language
I'm so happy that you posted a new video bc I binge-watched your channel and now I have NOTHING left to watch
queen NO i promise i’ll keep it up then
I really like how you go straight to the point in your videos and that you keep it real. A lot of people just want to show off to get views!! Great job Elyssinha!
don’t get me wrong, i’ll take all the views i can get... i’m gonna start clickbaiting now ansjddjf obrigada Sam!!
@@elyssedavega KKKKK
What makes learning my 4 languages at the same time (French,Italian,Spanish and French) easier,is that I have persons in my life who I speak to everyday that speaks those languages natively. I practice with them everyday, and they also provide their assistance and correct my mistakes. So just evaluate yourself and decide the best approach.
French and French?
whoa that's nice!
How did u find that persons???
Wow,,,6 languages for 2021👍, i hope i can study at least one language this year 😅
The sky is the limit!! cmon
Learning more then one at a time, made me still feel productive whilst not doing much in any particular language, and it makes me stop rushing myself
Great video! Blocking out time may be more effective, and it might work for some people, but I can never bring myself to do day-by-day switch-ups. I'm more of a "do what I want when I feel like it" kind of learner lol, so hardcore planning doesn't usually work for me. I can do longer periods of "focus" in one language versus another. This month, for example, I'm going to try and focus on my beginner-level Japanese (with my high-level Korean in the background when I feel like doing something else) before switching over to intermediate Chinese (with Korean still in the background). But in general, I just go with the flow. :)
True, I did that lax kind of approach last year for the last 6 months and I feel like I just wasn't good at holding myself accountable. It's good that you've found your shtick though, good luck!
Congrats on being such a young polygon! I’m 33, and native to English and Spanish, but I recently got into the idea of learning Chinese Mandarin, Hindi, Arabic, and Swahili, reasoning that this would allow me to talk to over half the world and in all continents/ major regions (Swahili is #1 African language, and high estimates by Harvard and UNESCO rank it at over 200M speakers, and I hope it can one day become the official African language).
Of course, Russian, French, Bengali, Portuguese, German and Urdu all have good reasons to ask to be learned, but I feel that most people from those countries should know English, Spanish, Hindi etc.
Gonna try German and Russian from february! (I have a german exam in a couple of weeks, drücke die Daumen für mich!)
Fingers crossed for ya!
I am a Russian, and I have started learning German lately. Surprisingly, German grammar seems more closer to Russian grammar than to English
If you ever wanna talk to a German native speaker, I'd be happy to help :)
@@Carla-ou2yb I think it would be great, to help each other learn languages. I would be happy to help you or anyone else with Russian either.
Personally I believe, speaking with natives is only good when you have at least reached A1.
Du kannst das. Welches Niveau ist es?
Thank you very much, I was one of those who requested the video.
I have B2, in English, and I have started studying German. I am planning to study Scandinavian languages later on, and will be studying Latin as well.
Your video helped me to create the right strategy for me.
Thank you very much.
perfect!! i’m very glad to help you Omar
I've been studying German for 3 years and I LOVE the language i literally do it for fun. I've been wanting to learn Japanese for a long time. I'm starting by just memorizing hiragana and takana to set a solid foundation
I know english pretty well, so I'm thinking about to learn french and german, but i don't know how to start. I actually don't remember how i started learning english
I can recommend the app Babbel. Or/and a good book plus spaced repetition flashcard app for vocabulary 🙂 and then peace by beace. Better slow but evolving.
@@BumbleBauz thank you, I'll try all these recommendations :)
instead of babbel, i would recommend both busuu and pimsleur. You will read, speak, and write perfectly in no time!
I can't say anything about busuu German classes because I'm native German. But I can say busuu Japanese A1 class is awsome. Busuu Polish classes are very poor and I would not recommend them. Because there is no grammar and just vocabulary. Which you can't really connect because polish grammar is highly complex.
For polish Babbel is my favorite language app. The quality is high in every language I have tried.
THERE’S A REALLY GOOD APP CALLED ‘LANGUAGE TRANSFER’ TRY IT FOR THOSE!!!!
I've already watched a few videos on this topic but I felt like I got a new perspective from this one :) also I appreciate that you don't assume everyone watching is a native speaker of English
Trabajar como tutora de inglés me ha hecho mil veces más consciente de nuestras expresiones y cuáles son menos comunes jajaja, me alegra saber que te gustó
i studying german (main) and korean (little by little, lots of immersion!) atm, and im soooooo excited to build those up to a strong enough level to move on to portuguese, thai, or polish. i dont know which one yet, but the fact that there's a whole entire world of languages out there is highkey AMAZING to me
Nice video! I learned English and French at the same time and it worked perfectly, in many cases both languages helped me to understand better linguistic aspects from each of them.
I actually heard that it’s pretty smart to learn multiple languages because once you get past a certain stage you’ll be able to compare and contrast them. I am “learning” 8 languages too: French, Spanish, Korean, Japanese, Italian, Chinese Mandarin, Portuguese, and Arabic. I have more experience with French and Spanish since I’ve been learning them longer. Naturally, some language skills are stronger than others but I’m good with Hangul and Japanese Kana. I know with most of them I will never be fluent but it’s still fun to learn. With the Romance languages I am learning I love being able to have a general idea of what something means because I’m already fluent with French and Spanish. I see Chinese Mandarin and Arabic as more brain exercises because they are the most challenging to me. Italian and Portuguese I just kind of threw in because I was getting bored with French and Spanish so I wanted the whole set lol. I watch a ton of East Asian films and TV shows so learning Korean and Japanese was just an added bonus. Even if I am not strong in them, I know what people are talking about without subtitles so to me that’s an accomplishment.
I say all that to say, people learn differently and not everyone’s language goals are the same. If you want to learn 20 languages just because you feel like it then I say go for it. Obviously if you have plans to do something like relocate to a country that speak certain languages then your priority should be spent on that.
I'm learning Spanish and Russian at the same time. Just getting started and I love it! It's not hard to me. My brother is fluent in Spanish, Portuguese, and French. My sister is learning Tibetan.
Mon Feb 7 2022
That’s great! Those languages have soooo much material in English to learn from, i’m sure you’ll have a ball Auntie
Hey it’s been 5 months..how’s it going?
Good luck 👍🏻🍀 to you
Hey Nice Channel!
I speak Portuguese, English and Spanish and last week I started to study French and Italian.
I hope to take some tips here with you! Success!!
This was a really good video and a theme I actually wanted to talk briefly about. 👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
Cool idea, I was dabbling in French and started to really enjoy watching French twitch streamers where as with my German, i'm still studying using Busuu and passed my A1 test the other day! I agree using different routines/resources is the way forward! Great video!
Perfect example, I’m so happy to hear you got a good balance 👍
ngl It helps me learn better when I do more than one language
Of course you CAN learn that many languages at the same time. But you will spread your self too thin. Fluency takes so many years to achieve. Dividing your time up across different languages only makes that process wayyyy longer. I’m not trying to put down anyone who wants to learn multiple languages at the same time. But you need to be realistic. Learning just one languages is a huge feat to accomplish.
Just remember Elysse (i believe) is studying a language based course at university so she naturally has a lot more time to focus on languages than say someone who has a full time job orare in high school. On top of that Elysse is clearly extremely talented and shes clearly hardwired be able to pick this kind of thing up a lot easier than most people. Dont get me wrong she clearly works harder than probably most of us as well, but I guess for her it doesnt feel like shes having to spread herself thin, even tho we would feel like we were
I appreciate this comment, but I don't hold what I say to be the ultimate truth of course. It all depends on what works for you. I don't think I would ever balance more than three at a time, from what I know about myself. If your priority is to learn a language as fast as you can, of course more attention is going to make you more successful! Thank you for your insight
Hi Max-- I study digital media at school, but I do have 2 minors in Spanish & American Sign Language! Therefore like I said in the video I do get a lot of language exposure just from school. And hey, I don't want you to think that my success in language learning is something you have to be 'hardwired' with-- I work just as diligently as any language learner. I might be good at memorization, but the rest comes from discipline! I just don't want anyone to think it's unattainable to be multilingual or that it's something genetic
@@elyssedavega my mistake! I knew you had done some language courses so i just assumed. And i completely agree with that. Like i said, you clearly work extremely hard and youve inspired me to work as hard as i can in learning german, i attribute a large amount of my success to your videos. I was just trying to point out you had an advantage to most people, thats not anything derogatory at all
@@maxketley681 hey that’s cool that your are learning German! I am too! If you are in to cooking/baking check out “Sally’s Welt” here on YT. All her videos have CC as well.
That baby analogy you used for learning new languages was perfect. I wish you the best of luck this year on your holy quest. I look forward to seeing everything you do in 2021; I've got season tickets to the whole thing haha. Inspiring as always.
Hahaha i’m glad you resonated with it! And thank you so much, it means a lot. Good luck with your langs too!
Especially if they come from the same branch or family. I'm intermediate in Spanish, but am learning Italian, French, and Romanian all at once. It's not as hard as I thought it would be.
I agree, I'm learning Spanish, Romanian and Italian and it isn't bad at all however I didn't start them all at the same time. Occasionally I add Italian words to Romanian but not often enough to drop one of them.
Swedish language is a mandatory at school here in Finland but I was super bad at it back then, now I'm trying to get back to it again. Kinda also wanting to study german and russian too since russian is so used in eastern Finland and german seems to be very appreciated at my career. What is getting in the way is my very short-lived interests because of ADHD so that's something I gotta fight with. I'll keep watching your videos, they seem helpful.
I'm glad I can help! And hey, that's really interesting to see what languages are mandatory between countries..
This video is so helpful for me! In 2024 I’m hoping to continue to grow in ASL and Tagalog but I want to self study Spanish and study Chinese at university come fall 2024. To hear about the helpfulness of having “academics languages and lots of separateness is really encouraging!
I recently discovered your channel and I love itttt, love from Italy ✨💗
Hi Kristi!! That means so much, thank you :)
no problem 🥰🥰
her voice is so pleasing to listen to 😩 i’m only studying japanese this year but it’s already so difficult whew
i'm glad you think so hehehe. and good luck with japanese!
I liked your analogy about new languages being like babies, requiring more time and attention than languages you already have a higher level. It matches my experience with english (that I've been studying for a long time and already have a quite comfortable level, though I'm still not fluent) and italian (which I started to study in 2020 and I'm still at a basic level). My italian requires way more time and attention. I think I'll wait a little till I get a more intermediate level at italian, and then I'll start to learn another language.
Give it as much time as it needs until you feel comfortable maintaining it!
Fresh insight: using a different format for every language practicing😊
I agree with your perspective here! I want to make a whole video about studying with anxiety because... for me, learning multiple things at once is crucial to being able to effectively learn. Up until recently, I only studied one language but I was always working on or studying other things outside of that (instruments, academic fields, cooking, etc.) I think when I am only focusing on one thing, it makes it easy for me to enter into a spiral of thinking I should /always/ be studying and then I feel shame when I'm not. By introducing another language into my studying, I've already started to be more effective because I realize my time studying each language is finite and I need to make the most out of it, rather than slowly chip away at every waking minute. Not sure if that makes sense, but as someone with OCD (which can present similarly to ADHD), diversifying what I'm studying and learning is super beneficial.
I can understand that, I’m sorry it’s given you trouble! Try not to hold yourself to the same standards as others, not everyone is in the same situation of course. Keep going
Learning spanish french and indian at same time will come after a year to seeee
Remind me guys after a yearrrrr
Am studying German and Italian at the same time because I read that studying a very different second language, helps the first language. Also want to holiday in Italy. My German is a lot more advanced than my Italian.
Can do both languages in the same session.
Omg i learning them both too.
the first two has been so important to me throughout my language learning journey, I've been studying french for about 1 year and a half and a couple of weeks ago I started with german, they're from different roots so I won't mix them up and also I gave enough time to be comfortable with my french level before going into a new language
Cool! I've been studying English for 2 years, and I already have some progress, I can able to understand videos like you, and I started to learn 2 mount ago japanese, and I agree with you, if you will study language in 0, it will gets much harder to study.
I’m learning PT, IT, FR and GE together on Duolingo. What’s good about this is that Duo doesn’t teach you the same areas consistently in every language. For example
PT lesson 1 would be traveling
IT lesson 1 would be introductions
FR lesson 1 would be plurals
These aren’t actually the lesson 1 for each one, but they don’t overlap in the subjects. They do eventually later as they all will cover all the subjects eventually if that makes sense. I love it.
I’m studying Romanian, Italian, and Portuguese. Luckily my mind decided to let me tell the difference, it turns out a lot of people get them mixed up. For me, it’s easy to find the differences and not get mixed up. I guess I got lucky :p
1:00 I RECOMMEND you study languages of same family at the same time. Because Spanish and Portuguese are now going on at the same time, I make a clearer distinction between them, as they are in different classrooms with different people. If I studied them separately, I would be more confused
Hi Elysse! Happy New Year!
Happy new year to you!!
this is great! I was getting frustrated because I wanted to learn German and ucranian but felt like if I was going to learn a language it should be spanish (I live in NW America ) so it's really great to hear that that kind of studying works from someone who actually uses it. I work really well switching back and forth, doing a little bit of this, then that, but I thought that would be too much if I was learning whole languages
Just take the time to figure it out and try some different approaches! I'm sure you'll find what works best for you in no time.
I’m learning Spanish and Portuguese together 😳

Same 😂 Spanish for 3 days(Spanish is mostly important) and Portuguese for 2 days. My 4 language would be Italian and my 5th language I’m thinking about either Swahili, German, Afrikaans, or Zulu 🤔
Been very helpful! Noted and all. Thanks!!!
I think that focusing on one language is the best option, but I have a strong incentive to study more xd. I'm gonna study 5 languages this year (including my native one xd). And I'm gonna dabble in Korean (I'll begin studying it maybe a few years from now).
But yeah, if you don't need to learn more than one language, don't.

I'm studying 6 languaged at the same time: french, russian, hindi, spanish, greek and arabic. Right now I'm studying deeper french and russian (grammar and vocabulary books, podcasts, Duolingo, music and movies), and the others I'm just learning the basics, getting a good base knowledge (same as above, but without using books or academic materials). All of them are brand new languages for me, except spanish, which I have already completed levels A1 and A2. Spanish also shares a lot of similareties with my mother language, portuguese (I'm from Brazil) which make things way easier. For me at least, so far, so good! And the best thing about learning new languages are all the cultural knowledge that comes with it! I've been reading, listening and watching things about France, Russia, India, Spain, Greece and all the Arab countries, and it's so amazing and enriching!
I’m glad to hear that it’s working for you! You obviously put a lot of thought into it.
Update your progress bro
I want a good online class to learn different language's like Spanish, French etc. Am willing to pay any amount for it.
I'll recommend you to Mr Dave Billy, His the best when it comes to online language classes
I have three languages to learn, French Korean and Spanish, since I have millions of reasons to, hope you wish me luck on doing once a month which works for me! Binge studying one language a month is with a go for me ;)

Hi, Can you actually recommend sources to learn Spanish? I would appreciate it.
i feel like this video is long overdue! great idea.
I actually really like studying languages of the same family simultaneously! I know that most people don't, but I don't get them confused, so for me I find it really fun. But I think that you need to test it first before making a huge commitment. 😊
oh god learning german at home 🙇🏼♀️ i’m german and so happy that i don’t have to learn it, it’s so confusing

Nachdem ich Deutsch gelernt habe, habe ich angefangen Chinesisch zu lernen. Das ist quasi der Ältere Bruder von Deutsch, was Schwierigkeit angeht haha.
Every person says that about their own language because they know it at a high level and think their second language is less complicated because they know less of it
@@AfroLinguo Ich liebe deutschen sprachen🙂
I've studied several languages before and I'd say German is relatively easy for an English speaker to learn. Both the grammar and vocabulary are pretty similar
Italian is the most beautiful language in the world. It is like heaven. I recommend every human being to learn Italian. It will broaden your horizon.
“I talk too fast” girl I watch videos in 2x and I felt fine watching yours lol
You're the final boss
Good to know, Ellysse. I, on the other hand, chose to study two languages that are rather similar to each other, which are Mandarin and Tibbetan(they’re both tonal.) So I’ll work on Tibetan for six months and Mandarin for another six.
Sounds like a great plan, just enough time to really connect with them!
Yes, i always get confused when I wanna count in Norwegian and then I count in Icelandic hahaha
That first explanation makes so much sense about the different families! In HS I took german and spanish at the same time and mixed words up on occaision and overall it made it difficult. But lately I've been learning Russian and started back up on German, and I don't get them mixed up anywhere near as often except sometimes I might say da instead of ja but that's no big deal to me. The other tips in this video are also really good and make me a lot more confident about steamrolling my way to being polylingual.
I am also going to be studying 5 or 6 languages this year ❤️❤️
Period!!!

love that for you!!
So , how do you improve in those languages?
I’m trying to learn Spanish and German at the same time. I chose German to learn alongside Spanish to learn because the vocabulary isn’t similar so I’m less likely to mix them up
This was a really good video and a theme I actually wanted to talk briefly about.
Several months after I started Hebrew I tried to learn a bit of German as well. It didn't work out too well because Hebrew was still a fairly new language. I felt like German was stealing time away from Hebrew. It was also a bit harder than I expected. Hebrew has been intermediate for a while, so I can listen to podcasts and watch RUclips videos. That means my study routine looks quite different than it did as a beginner.
That makes it easier to study multiple languages at once. In around October I got back into Icelandic. Since it's a language I've previously studied it's easier to study than German. I usually study 20-30 minutes a day. If it's a weekend I might study more. It can also give me a break from Hebrew without losing momentum or getting bored. I find it's easier to stay motivated when I can take breaks. I like studying one intermediate language and one beginner language at the same time. I can appreciate the progress I've made in my intermediate language and the novelty of the beginner language.
Novelty is refreshing! What an interesting mix of langs.
I really want to learn Spanish and Italian!!! Great video💕😊
Right now I am studying Thai and have been for a little over 5 months (since mid July). But in August when I had a choice to choose an elective class for university, I chose Mandarin because it interested me and my college does not offer a Thai course :( In my experience, I quickly realized that I would put all my effort into studying Thai through all sorts of mediums, and then when it came time to study Chinese I would not only have no energy but would also just not care to learn the language. I became a bad student and didn't really study the language, but rather just did what I needed to do to get an A in the course. Meanwhile, my Thai excelled and I still feel that I am growing exponentially each day.
I relate to your point that you should not study two new languages at the same time, as for even right now the amount of attention that I give to studying Thai is too massive for me to feel comfortable adding another language. Tbh, I also think that I just never was passionate about learning Chinese either. But that is my only experience in trying to learn two languages at the same time, and for me it didn't work well LOL.
oh man. i relate to that last bit so hard about not having motivation for the school language, i was about fed up with my ASL course this semester!
