Hope you guys go some value from this video :) If you are struggling, or have tried and failed to learn a language before, definitely try to make use of the tips in this video.
Thanks for watching, tons more videos to come :)
Ikenna what can I use as an alternate to Assimil for Korean. They don’t have the complete version for Korean. By the way, I read your book and I think it’s great!
@@ArlisaSThomas hey thanks! I'm starting Korean my self in 6 months so I don't know much about it yet, but perhaps "living language korean" search it on amazon it's rated very well :)
Ikenna okay I was looking at living language but I wanted to get your insight in case you had started learning korean or know someone that was. Thanks and I see the improvement in your videos! Keep up the good work!
Can you do a video on key factors you need to know about each language you already know
You could also do mukbangs in different languages
Ikenna is my favorite anime character
He has the looks too
He does look like an anime character tho lmao
He is Zuko from Avatar cartoon xD

also me: watches 3 hours of youtube related to learning

@@raitoo6155 true
shimmy shimmy koko sTAPH lol
Tbh, watching how to learn is a lot better than watching viners or something stupid, because studying videos will motivate you to study.
@@valesth4903 facts
Ikenna: don't tell anyone you're learning a new language
Also Ikenna: *creates an youtube channel to tell people he's learning new languages*
Cause he ACTUALLY DID, but if you're starting you shouldn't, you will run out of fuel and things are better when unexpected
Lmfao 😂
to be fair it's literally his job
The true reason why most gave up / faiIed learning a language is, because most hum’ns didn’t choose a pretty language like Dutch & Norwegian & Welsh etc with mostly pretty / poetic words that one would actually enjoy learning! There are about 38 to 50 pretty languages, while most languages are a non-pretty language - the pretty languages include all Germanic languages (which are also the prettiest and most refined languages ever) and all Celtic languages and most Latin languages (including Portuguese / Galician / French / Gallo / Catalan / Spanish / Italian / Esperanto / Occitan / Latin / Corsican and their dialects) and, Hungarian also seems pretty, from what I noticed! I am learning about 15 pretty language at the moment, and I usually prioritize Dutch & Norwegian & Welsh - I’ve learned more than 6.500 base words in Dutch and over 3.500 base words in Norwegian and also in Swedish in a few months!
The big terms fab and Santos (meaning Saints) etc only reflect me The Saint / The Leader / The Goddess / The Lady / The Queen / The Princess / The Star etc and the pure / Holy / absolute being etc, and such terms cannot be misused in names or yt names or comments etc, and must be changed / edited out - numbers also cannot be misused by hum’ns in yt names etc, and special names such as Adam only reflect my pure protectors aka the alphas, and cannot be misused by hum’ns, and all unsuitable names / terms etc must be changed and edited out, and words like end and tin and fun and be and over / ver etc only reflect me, and cannot be in yt names / names etc, and must be edited out!

@@fashiharz8584 it's a struggle. 90% of arabic dialect resources are in Egyptian. All i found is this online show called Kazdoura, these two lebanese in their 20s riding around trying and reviewing takeout food. that's about all i got ahah
@@Brigister yeah me too. I know only "mamnou3!" On RUclips and they have like ten episodes.

@Mariana Uzumaki cuál idioma quiere aprender?
@Mariana Uzumaki Yo estoy aprendiendo español y mi primer idioma es inglés. Pero debe mirar a canales como SuperHolly, o empezar a ver televisión en inglés. Pero no sé como mucho ya sabe. Y desafortunadamente inglés es más difícil entender cuando personas hablan qué cuando personas escriben y leen como cualquier otro idioma. Deseo que podría ayudarle con su hablar, pero no pienso que mi español es bastante.
Derek Carter
¡Lo hiciste muy bien!
Algún que otro detalle como en la última oración, sería: “Deseo poder ayudarte, pero mi inglés no es bastante bueno.”
En lo cuál no concuerdo, le falta un poco más de trabajo pero se puede leer y entender.
¡Sigue así, que pronto hablas y escribes como un nativo en el español!
It’s because it creates a similar chemical affect in the brain as actually completing it.

I've decided to learn English this year and now I can watch this video without subtitles and understand almost everything.
Pd: I'm from Argentina
Vamos todavía!
¡Brava! Pero... *ps
Wwow youre very smart
In a year??? I've been learning english 10 years in school, and I needed to learn by myself too... lol School is useless, proofs are here.
A, Quiero aprender Japones despues de Español :)
I am native Polish speaker, and I learn English and german in school. But I don't want to learn german, but I may start so:
Polish was my first language,
English was my 2nd language,
Spanish will be my 3rd language,
Japanese will be my 4rd language, or 5th if I will finally accept that I need to learn german at School ;)

4:06 - 4:11 "You have to cultivate discipline, not motivation. Motivation is fleeting." So simple but So profound!!! If nothing else that line has changed the way I view learning. Thank you!
You are right
Easier said than done. You don’t need motivation for physical things like working out or brushing your teeth but for more mental things like learning, you need some sort of reward, incentive or motivation for it to be worth sacrificing time
I'd you're not motivated you won't learn whatsoever
The special and big terms / names Reed and Lucas and You and cultivate etc cannot be misused by hum’ns, and must be changed, and pronouns can never be with a capital letter when referring to hum’ns - I am the only being reflecting names such as Reed and Lucy, and pronouns can only be with a capital letter when referring to me THE superior / important being aka The Goddess / The Lady / The Queen / The Princess / The Star etc, while nature related terms / names and other purity / big terms etc only reflect me, and all unsuitable names / terms must be changed and edited out!

Because of people learning Japanese for anime when they can just watch the dub

So many people ask me why I'm learning Japanese, and that I'm a weeb, and blah blah blah. Thankfully, there's Soooo many more supporters. It's really cool that people actually CARE.
ikr....but when they called me weeb i just said that im a language learner
Sol, it's nice to know there's people who like learning other languages as well!

And sorry if my English was bad, it's my first language.

Unfortunately, there is no easy solution but to just do it. If you have any free time, dedicate it towards language learning instead of scrolling through TikTok.
I am going to learn Japanese and I will become the hokage!

Pimsleur is simply too UNDERRATED!!! Pimsleur (which is free in most UK libraries) basically gives you essential elocution/pronounciation lessons from native speakers. I completed Pimsleur French I, II and III and i couldn't recommend it more. It taught me how to pronounce French syllables, words and phrases with great accuracy, natives would constantly be impressed at my accent considering the short time I've been leaning French (1 year 5 months). Can someone speak fluent French after completing Pimsleur alone? No. Yes, in the sense that you can fluently say phrases in French, however you will not be able to engage back and forth with natives beyond a superficial level, because the vocabulary in Pimsleur doesn't nearly cover the incredible amount of words or the tenses (past simple, continuous) you will NEED to know when conversing with native speakers, there's no getting around actual grammar and vocabulary study if you want to really speak a second language - Pimsleur is simply an aid, but an incredibly effective one at that.
How much does it cost?
where tf is pimsleur. ive been to three libraries and no sight
@@haltdieklappe7972 it's an app
Pietro Pesaresi but theyre saying you can get it at a library in the uk
lol there aren't just three tenses in French
Bro that outfit is it, I need it!
Raw asf
Hi, PINGU. I didn’t know you wore clothes.
for me its simply:
Day 1- motivated and exited to lean the language
Day 2- completely forgot about the language thing
4 weeks later- remembers about the language and the cycle continues
This guy speaks NINE languages... N👏I👏N👏E!!!
that's mad!!
He speaks 13
7
Yes that's not bad at all, considering how young he is. (I mean, he looks young doesn't he?).
I failed at Spanish cause I wasn’t really interested in it so I never studied it so I started Japanese and I really enjoy it!
Awsome!
Jajaj, qué mal XD
Wow Niceeee👍🏻
I failed My M. A
T. H in school ha ha
You either need a good end goal that excites you and makes learning the language worth it or you need to really enjoy the language itself
*21 days for a habit, 70 days for a lifestyle*
90* days.
Depends vastly on what habit it is. 30 days for drinking water every day after dinner and around 120 days for working out
And i would love to see you speak with tourist and other people in the langueges you can speak
one day definitely :)
When I was leaning English"still learning" my friends use to come up to me and show me a random words that they thought were in English most the times wasn't , but if I couldn't translated it, they would start laughing and making fun of me, and after that I learned my lesson🤐 , and my English has improved a lot after since🙃
Your English is really good!
do they even know english themselves, if they don’t, who are they to laugh at you when they don’t even know how translate it themselves and those words aren’t even english most of the times.
People has got to stop being so negative about learning languages. Usually there are a few languages that are "accepted" which are usually the languages we learn in school such as English, French, German and Spanish (at least where I am from). If we tell people we are learning those languages it is okay and often even encouraging. Like how people even expect us to speak English. But when it comes to languages that are not one of the common ones we learn at school we are often criticized for wanting to learn them. We get questions such as "why do you want to learn that language, you'll never use it" and we all of a sudden get to hear more negative things and jokes about the culture and country of the language we want to learn. The thing the people saying this don't understand is that when people close to us say these things it discourages us to keep learning the language we want to. Because we care about other people's opinions about us, especially people close to us.
This might or might not be more common among the older generations, but I think as a new generation who is much more globalized and accepting we need to take this into consideration. It's never a waste to learn a language ♡♡♡
Love your comment, especially the last line, thankfully my parents are fine with it, my mother is even telling everyone about it, even after i told her NOT to, well everyone in my city knows about it now
can't agree more!
so true , as a sikh we are taught that the more languages and cultures you learn about the richer and open your life becomes , it helps expand that similarity we have as one human race ; to feel that sense of family not strangers
next video is a music one >:)
It will be awesome
YASS❤️
Cool
Je suis curieux de savoir dans quelle langue ce sera, ik ben erg benieuwd 🙂😁
CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH IT !!😅
I wish I had heard not to tell anyone I was learning Russian back when I first started, cause you're absolutely right. People are so negative about learning languages, it's insane. :///
i really geeked out on the music in this video, bonus points to whoever knows which tv shows/video game most songs came from 😎
I recognized a one piece song in the beginning. Heheheh
Ikenna your my inspiration
I'm loving the "Shiki no Uta" mix from Samurai Champloo!
You had a song from one piece. I think it's called "The Strongest One". Then I actually had a mini orgasm when I heard the song from K: return of kings. I think it was "Kizuna" or "Firing" but, I always get those two mixed up. Then I had another orgasm when I heard "Mikoto Suoh's theme" at 9:27
Also I love that you had the 2nd opening of Durarara!! At the end of you video
I didn't recognize anything else though
The great champloo

I just found your channel a couple days ago from your language videos and I just wanted to say I love your attitude about language learning and videos! I’m hopefully gonna check out your book soon and I’m super excited :)))
J'aimerais trop savoir bien parler anglais 😍
about not telling people I think that if it's people whom you share the same interests with, it's actually better to tell them, I have been a part of a challenge in twitter and it was really motivating bcuz a lot of people are participating and it's motivating me to keep going as I see others and people with the same interests always motivates you
not everyone has such supportive people around them which is why i agree with not telling anyone
I think this goes so far beyond languages, these things apply to learning everything really
Very true!
I think you are the best channel I’ve ever come across since exurb1a
Logan Snyder lové Exurb1a❤️❤️😭
You haven’t met laoshu505000, bro can speak 50 languages and beyond.
There's so much wisdom in this video. Especially in that part about dissuading (is that a word?) 👌
David Lendl yes lmao
That is a word. 👍
motivation is temporary you have to be driven and passionate, build a disciplined mindset and stay in your lane. don’t let people who doubt you get in your head.. unfortunately the haters are usually the loudest..
make it personal
stay hard! and enjoy the process
Thank you so much for showing me Pimsleur! I have tried for months now to learn Japanese but i got nowhere, i tried so many methods and services. i really doubted anything would work because of my Autism and Dyslexia.
but i finally tried Pimsleur and wow it ACTUALLY works!!
I'm mindblown..
I can definitely agree with the whole 'not telling people' thing. When I started my first language outside of the home, German, I tried to share it with everyone. One specific person I thought who would be a good resource was an Austrian girl who lived nearby, but it ended up being quite the opposite. When I shared I was starting to learn German, she looked at me and told me, "uh you shouldn't learn German, since you weren't raised there... you're nationally American,". It hurt me to hear this, and I ended up stopping German because of this- and have never truly regained the motivation to learn it.
So now when I start a language, I keep it to myself until I'm conversational or at this confident in it. I have found I am far more focused and disciplined because of this.
Whenever I get discouraged on my language learning journey, I just watch an Ikenna video. 😎

Thanks for the pep talk~ It's true. Telling people often has negative connotations.
you're doing a great job ,keeping the gooood work ^^
Why I started with language learning?
Cause I was tired of reading subtitles.
Down with -English
-Hindi
-korean
Now I'm starting with my Chinese basics.
I'm Egyptian and I became fluent in English by only watching TV shows, movies, vlogs and listening to pop songs. I'm learning Korean and I really wanna learn Chinese ❤❤
thats why dubbed versions exist
I was very lucky. I had great success from the get-go. From a young age I started learning languages. My uncle married a woman from Mexico City when I was 10 years old and my uncle would interpret everything to her. He was a polyglot. I heard the language when they would visit and would learn phrases here and there. I also learned about Mexican culture. When my aunt would speak English, I'd hear her Spanish accent. When she'd say my name, she'd say it with a Spanish accent. Her relatives from Mexico would come and I would try to learn as much from them as I could. I didn't really speak the language, however. Later, I met a girl at school who was an American, but spoke fluent Spanish. She had had lots of Hispanic friends and boyfriends. She told me if I actually wanted to learn Spanish, I had to hang around lots of Spanish-speaking people, get audio courses from the library, listen to music, watch television, movies, soap operas, read books, use text books and learn grammar. So I took her advice and became obsessed. I created my own language learning environment and constantly rehearsed the language in preparation for speaking with native speakers. I tried to learn all of the patterns I could (grammar/constructs/verb tenses/conjugations) so that I could manipulate the language and say anything I wanted. Everything was in anticipation of speaking with natives. I also started meeting lots of Spanish-speaking people at the ESL classes (English as a Second Language). I started hanging around Spanish-speakers almost exclusively and determined I was going to be a Spanish-speaker and adopted a new identity (or rather an additional identity as it were). In school, I took three languages and ended up doing independent study because the classes were ridiculous. I tell my story on my RUclips Channel. Check it out. I also learned several other languages in a similar way. I speak six languages and focus mostly on having the highest level of fluency in each language and endeavor to speak with an excellent accent. I'm a polyglot, but quantity is unimportant to me. I speak English, Spanish, French, Brazilian Portuguese, Italian and American Sign Language. I'm a court interpreter (English-Spanish) and also teach both of those language. In addition, I have a website dedicated to language learning/interpreting. www.corynicolas.com
I have to admit, I was skipping your videos when they appeared as ads, but these tips have been useful. Thank you!

I did Pimsleur French and I thought it was a very good program. I was going to try Rosetta Stone until I read that it's not that good and too expensive. I supplement with various online stuff. I'm not fluent, but I can make my way in a French conversation.
Try assimil next :) very good for french
I cracked Rosetta Stone and it just throws vocab at you
Bonne chance!
I related so much when you talked about hiding your language learning. That was low-key me with Arabic.
Thanks I was struggling about the things that are not worthy in my life and what the people says but this video made me change :) thank you so much Ikenna
This was very helpful. Thanks great vid 👌

duolingo
pimsleur
assimil

Also me - start teaching my big brother Korean too

Thank you! I will be purchasing your book...
For Korean I recommend LingoDeer and Talk To Me In Korean as mains!!
I always watch videos like this when I can't be bothered studying my language.
Very well put together video! All great advice, but one difference I’ve had is by telling as many people as possible that I’m learning a new language so I feel more accountable, sometimes it’s that little push to get my head back in the game
It was a very helpful video for me.Thanks!
That 15 year old kid is literally me a few years ago, I constantly had doubt but now i know i wasn't alone.
6:12 This is so much relatable. I'm a 15 years old learning Japanese and I stop my program when I hear anybody passing.
True and same, how's it going?
You‘re so great and so right!!
Good work brother keep up the positivity
I'm a big Pimsleur fan when starting a new language. Check your public library. Mine has a TON of Pimsleur for free!! (i'm in the United States, so i can't speak for other countries)
Cool thanks

So many resources on RUclips, just have to search. For example search comprehensive input *language name*

@@YoungCardiac Remember to use different resources as well, Pimsleur will only take you so far.
Try immersion.
Great advice.

I am actually so thankful to you because I watched one of your videos about pimselur and I couldn't get it, but I discovered an amazing similar tool that worked magic for me called Language Transfer I am using this to learn spanish and in one month I can build a lot of sentences that I didn't think that I can even say 😭
language transfer is a great program too, if they carry your language
It makes me so sad that the best advice is to keep it to yourself. I 100% agree but it is still sad
You are such a great and inspirational young man! I have made tremendous progress in my french, just by watching all your videos and subscribing to your channel. I am buying your e-book FME, but you made me cry when you got no love for wanting to pursue your goal. I am so glad you did not give up! You are changing lives more than you know....thanks for sharing your gifts! Trust me when I say that you would make any parent proud to have as a son just by your sheer fortitude to do great things in your life! Keep teaching and merci beaucoup!
I very much appreciate your style and your tips as well..i’ve always thought that learning languages was something for just some people,but now I know that if you’re motivated and you can stay focused,you really can learn anything in life (not just languages)I’m speaking from experience.Thank you very much..you’re also kind of supportive.Look forward to watch other videos..
