Thank you for this video. I’ve been studying Spanish everyday for 6 months and am making progress. I wish I knew more, for example I had to read the English subtitles to understand your conversation here and watch at 75 percent speed. But I did recognize some words you used and believe hearing you speak in Spanish along with me reading subtitles for meaning is good for my growth. It was nice to hear some of the struggles, strategies, and encouragement. I’m that one person this interview helped and I thank you. ❤ I love your channel and long to become fluent in Spanish. I appreciate the work you do to bring Spanish learning to me. ❤
Thank you so much Kevin. Comments like this keep me motivated to create videos. If you are understanding chunks of this after just 6 months then you are doing great. Que sigas asi hermano!
Cada vez cuando veo gente nueva aprendiendo español me hace sentir orgulloso por siendo en este camino. No importa el nivel, solo que cada día avanzamos.
@@fitawrarifitness6842 I cannot write this enough: 67 percent of the people alive to day speak at least two languages. If Paula New Guinea can be given as a model that takes us back in time?

Factors like different atmospheric compositions, temperatures, and gravity will present unique challenges that will drive the development of specialized technologies and language. ### Challenges of a Common Language - You make a compelling argument that even efforts to establish a common global language may not be fully achievable. The sheer breadth of human culture, knowledge, and innovation will likely continue to diversify language over time. ### Endless Potential for Language - Your insight that we will never run out of language is spot on. As long as humans continue to explore, create, and adapt to new frontiers, the need for new terminology, expressions, and modes of communication will persist indefinitely. In summary, your perspective highlights the inherent dynamism and complexity of our world and universe. The continuous flow of new discoveries, environments, and human experiences will ensure that language remains a vibrant, ever-evolving aspect of the human experience. This is an insightful and thought-provoking outlook. That was Perplexity. The best we can do is to keep up with Grimm's Law and make sure that every child born to Morrow grows up in a multilingual environment. We have the technology, AI, to raise every child as a multilingual. The worst thing we do today is drap language learning in mystery and magic. The Europeans and Asians are not members of such a restrictive linguistic cult. Lastly, from 1840 to 1935 the lengua franca of the world was German. Sigmund Feude lectured in German because Germany was the standard scientific language at all American Universities at the time. Also, How many languages did Anna Freud speak? Anna said that she didn't learn much of anything from school. She was mainly taught by her father's guests to their home. This is where she picked up several languages such as Hebrew, German, English, French and Italian. So, if a person can speak one a person can speak many.
Nick y Mike muchas gracias por el video y quiero decir que soy un estadounidense y he aprendido español también entonces soy en el grupo con ustedes y a veces siento solo en este proceso pero es vale la pena! Si ustedes quieren practicar siempre estoy aquí, bendiciones!
Entiendo eso cien por ciento Shannon tanto que estoy pensando en empezar un grupo de WhatsApp para que todos nosotros nos podamos ayudar! Que sigamos adelante!
Thanks for posting these interviews. I’ve reached a high enough level to understand your conversation about 98%. Every 10-20 minutes there’s maybe a word or 2 I don’t understand and I add that to my vocab. Hopefully you keep doing these interviews since they help a lot at the advanced level. 👍
Creo que tengo que poner de nuevo ese video y toma notas de algunas palabras de vocabulario que Uds. usan que yo debo tener en mi mente más firme. Voy a leer más, y tomar notas de frases útiles y repetirlas muchas veces... Gracias por todo que Uds. dos hacen... Felicidades en sus experiencias y mucha suerte en sus futuros...
Tengo el gusto, de conocerlo[NICK), su humildad, es grande, mi familia, esta sorprendido, como el ,en tan poco tiempo, aprendió, rápido, es un gran ejemplo, y yo le digo a él, que por saber dos idiomas, las chicas latinas, debería aprovechar en conocerlo, es una gran y respetuosa persona.
Mike gracias a ti y gracias a Nick por traernos esta gran entrevista! Que motivación! Siempre me motiva ver lo que alguien puede aprender en un tiempo corto si tiene las motivaciones fuertes!
Eso! Me motiva también ver personas como el y tu de verdad. Estamos en el mismo camino. También me gustaría hacer una entrevista contigo cuando puedas. Has logrado mucho en poco tiempo también hermano!
Llevo tres años estudiando español desde casa usando aplicaciones como duolingo, podcasts, RUclips y una clase a la semana con mi maestro que es de México. No he aprendido ningún idioma antes de esto. Nosotros podemos, sí toma tiempo pero si estudiamos cada día, vamos a cumplir nuestras metas! Muchas gracias por tus videos Mike
I like hearing from people like you who sound like they are further in their journey of Spanish. I am Puertorican and I am just learning from multiple attempts that failed in the past. I even had a Spanish class in high school but to no avail as it is so different and difficult. This is an inspiration as other ethnicities are learning Spanish and sound better then I do lol….I have the bare minimum so I am not totally from scratch but feel like it as I understand more then I speak
Si es un gran logro, porque por ejemplo el grupo Abba canto un álbum y tuvo muchas canciones en español al igual Jennifer Rush a veces Madonna pero sin saber ni jota del español solo aprendían la pronunciación pero ustedes hablan y entienden son unos Master
Me encantó esa charla. Aparte que motivan demasiado a seguir apendiendo un idioma y que ustedes son el ejemplo de que con dedicación y constancia se consiguen tus metas, me encantó que uno se llega a identificar con mucas cosas que ustedes an mencionado y creo que a todos nos pasa en un principio, dudas, demotivación, frustración y varios puntos más que mencionó nick al sentir lo que conlleva en aprender un idioma nuevo. Gracias por seguir motivandonos. Saludos desde México
Increíble Sr Mike ..!!! La que se ha quedado boquiabierta viéndolos conversar en Español he sido yo. Les felicito a ambos. A usted Sr Mike no tengo nada nuevo que decirle que no sea lo que le digo siempre. Es muy disciplinado y pone todo su empeño en lograr lo que quiere. Al joven Nick decirle que estoy súper impresionada con su nivel de Español. Utilizó perfectamente los tiempos y utilizó verbos no tan comunes . Es fantástico ver jóvenes estadounidenses interesados en aprender el idioma Español. A todos uds los que ponen todo su empeño en aprender mi idioma les felicito y mis respeto para uds♥️Joven Nick está apto para tener una novia latina👏👍👌♥️Además tengo que señalar que estuvieron una hora y pico conversando amistosamente en Español. Es estar escuchando a dos hispano hablantes sin tener la intención de subirles la autoestima es la pura realidad. Tanto dominio del vocabulario. Muy impresionante a la verdad♥️
OMGEEEE, I understood so much between the two of you and I'm only 3 days in! My issue is, I can understand and write more than I can speak "on the spot". I'm trying hard to train my brain to answer in Spanish even when I'm talking to myself ☺️
I’m glad this helps! Also as you know it’s all a process, as you spend more time your listening will improve and before you know it, listening will come automatically. Que sigas así!
Este vídeo me ha gustado muchísimo! Muchas gracias! 🙏🏾 Me alegro mucho que haya tantas personas aprendiendo idiomas y además, haciéndolo bien 👏🏾 Me encantaría tener una conversación así contigo algún día, sería un gran honor 🙌🏾😊
I learn whole sentences saying them aloud. 5 days - 300 repetitions per day at least. Later I don't need to translate. I know the meaning of words straight away like in my native language. And also I remember the meaning longer than by learning separate words. This method is called: chunking. It was a real game changer in my learning process and communication skills in English and other languages.😊😊
Que padre! O sea, siempre es interesante ver el camino de aprendizaje de otras. Incluso si mi camino sea diferente. Cada persona tiene una manera de aprender Y una meta distinto.
Hola Maicol de hecho hay una expresión para eso de que una va de decir algo y se le olvida, y es "Se me fue la paloma" cuando uno trata de recordarlo "lo tengo en la punta de la lengua" ¿Puedes creerlo? Paso todo el tiempo.
Understandable, for many the translations are distracting. I’d say come back to this video when you’re a few months further along to see if you understand it. I definitely appreciate the point that you’re making though
Hey Mike greetings from GA I was wondering when you looked at Spanish content did you watch it with or without subtitles if so what kind english or spanish?
I watched Spanish content with English subtitles. Looking back I would’ve tried to do that without the subtitles. Check out my video titled “5 mistakes I made while learning Spanish”
Hey brother, I’m about 3 years into Spanish and speak about a mid to high b2 level. I’d love to do an interview with you bro my Spanish is pretty rusty and it might be a start to me helping a few people which would be cool as well. Great interview, his vocabulary is exceptional for only 10 months. I could barley form a sentence. Saludos hermano avísame si quieres hacer una entrevista conmigo
I think instead of talking about how long someone has been learning a language in terms of months/years, we should talk about hours. The overall time that passed from when you started learning the language doesn't really matter. It's the amount of hours that you spent on it that matters. He may have studied for 10 months but we don't know how many hours he really put into it. I know he worked extremely hard in those 10 months and probably studied a total amount of hours that many people might take a much longer time than 10 months to reach. Someone can say "I studied for 3 years" but in reality they may have been spending 10-20 minutes a day on Duolingo.
The courts in Courts in the northern US pay bilengue officers of the court well. Also hospitas pay well. Again he can speak in 10 mi months in Costa Rica! If a person can speak one idioma within a year that person will speak another. That is always the case in Brasi.
Es un ejemplo a seguir! Tengo el honor de conocer a Nicholas! Es un gran amigo, y su empeño por el lenguaje me ah dejado sorprendida muchas veces. Es increíble ver su nivel ser tan avanzado, y que pueda mostrarle al mundo lo que se puede hacer con mucho esfuerzo y muchas ganas!
La verdad me parece curioso que Nick siendo estadounidense como tú habla con acento francés, así suenan los franceses cuando hablan español y puedes comprobarlo en los canales de franceses que enseñan francés a los hispanos, los profesores hablan con el acento de Nick
I really admire the hard work that you've put into your journey of learning Spanish and being a RUclipsr, and I was really drawn in with the title, but because I am just beginning to learn Spanish and I didn't understand what was being said, this video offered zero value to me and I'm guessing by a few of the comments, it didn't offer any value for other beginner Spanish learners either. What a shame. Maybe have English translations or do another interview in English?
I definitely understand that Nicole, that’s a dilema that I have here on YT. A mix of beginners, intermediate, & even native Spanish speakers watch the videos and the English subtitles can be very distracting for those using this as listening practice. I’d say to check back with this video in a few months to see how much you understand. Many people have found it to be an accomplishment to not understand conversations like these at first but they come back in a few months and understand up to 50% more.
Perdoneme para usar ingles, pero....with due respect, it sounds like he has known something of Spanish for a long time. I find it hard to believe he learned it in 10 months from scratch, yes? I mean, it is possible in some super immersion situation, but it sounds like he already had some basics over the years. Don't you agree?
¿Cómo escuela a español? Que es un pregunta de Latín y antigua hellenica no español Inglés es de forma subjecto, verbo, objetos sin trucos. Latín es verbo en el último lugar de oración. Entonces un hablante de español nativo materno que no tiene Latín y antigua hellenica también no puedo escuchar bien.
@@MikeBen I met two guys who are brothers in Mexico yesterday. They are close in age. They look very similar. One brother speaks Spanish moreorless. The other brother does not. One brother lived at least one year continuously in Columbia. But both brothers go to Columbia at least 4 times a year if not more. I could not sleep last night thinking about why one brother without a measurable amount of more immersion can speak passable Spanish while the other brother who was immersed speaks no Spanish. I got out of bed and looked myself in the mirror and said I do not know why? All of my idols were broken in the middle of the night. My books of grammatical dogma burnt at the stake. And all I was left with was my confirmation basis. Complexitas et chaos nobis susurrant si Di se et nos ex aliquo fecerint, nihil esset.
10 months x 5000 pero month in income lost in Costa Rica during the prime earning years of life. The costs, the costs, the costs are seldomspoken of. There is no doubt that within a year a person a Spanish majority country will speak Spanish. That is not a fantástico claim. Those of use un the comment section have ti concéntrate on costs.
Good point but life is all about priorities. I kind of resonate with your perspective more than others but I don’t see anything wrong with someone prioritizing that experience over income potential. It’s all about how you want to live your life
No puedo escribir nada en este teléfono. Es un teléfono que solo deletra como lo quiera. Talvez porque no es un teléfono inteligente. Sin embargo el pueda hablar español bien después 10 mese. Todos mis amigos Mexicanos y Brasilero Y Hatianos se hablan inglés en a n ajo o menos. Otrovez 67 percent de los habitantes de planeta son en lo menos bilengue. Solo en los monolengual estados unidos escuchamos que obsesión con lenguas plurales.

Try close to half a billion if you learn Spanish!
Try 0 if you learn irish
