here are three essential tips to learn
foreign languages faster and easier
before i get started i just want to
mention that all of these tips are also
available on my website ryan's
languagetips.com if you want even more
tips for how to study more efficiently
and faster then be sure to check out my
blog posts on my website so tip number one
one
is focus on phrases and sentences now i
think we can all agree that there's no
perfect way to learn a language and i
mean even here on youtube a lot of
people disagree on what the best method
might be in my opinion one of the
fastest ways that you can really
progress in a language is by focusing on
learning phrases and sentences let me
give you a little example of how i was
able to use this tip to really jump
start my chinese learning so about three
years ago before i even started studying
chinese i was playing a video game
called pubg
and i noticed that i had a lot of
chinese teammates and they would often
communicate usually in chinese now it
was a bit frustrating for me to not be
able to communicate with them so what i
ended up doing was i went online and i
looked up some really simple phrases in
chinese phrases like let's go
or follow me and at the time i had
absolutely zero understanding of how to
pronounce words in chinese or chinese
grammar or anything of that sort
now watch this as soon as i say
something in chinese they're all going
i simply just tried to copy exactly how
the phrases sounded to the best of my
ability and i would repeat them over and
over to my teammates saying things like
let's go now two things happened as a
result of this number one my chinese
teammates got really excited whenever i
would try and say phrases their
excitement gave me a lot of inspiration
to keep learning new phrases and keep
trying and testing different sentences
that i learned the second thing was some
of the teammates that i met in game
would later add me as a friend and we
would play multiple games and by playing
multiple games with someone i would
start to develop a friendship with them
and we would be able to help each other
in our different languages now keep in
mind this is day one of me learning
chinese now you're probably saying what
about grammar or tones those things are
extremely important you need to know
those well that's absolutely correct
but what i realized was after learning
sentences and phrases for a while i was
eventually able to pick apart certain
grammar points such as past tense and
things like that i think this method of
picking apart sentences and phrases that
you learn is a lot more interesting than
learning single words or single grammar
points at one time and based on my
example from playing pub g i was able to
use those phrases and sentences i
learned immediately if i just spent the
first day learning individual words i
don't think it would be very useful to
go on pub g and say to a chinese person
fiji
so in conclusion i think learning
phrases and sentences can be a great way
to start studying a language and you can
focus on learning grammar and
pronunciation kind of as you go filling
in the gaps so to speak because at the
end of the day you can't be perfect when
you're learning a language it doesn't
matter who you are everyone's going to
make mistakes and that's completely
normal the important thing is that
you're talking and practicing from day
one so tip number two repetition is
absolutely essential so repetition is a
pretty common theme for language
learners i know for myself personally i
cannot learn a phrase one time and then
remember it forever i need to see that
phrase 10 11 12 times i need to repeat
it back to myself and say it over and
over again so that way i really
and i think a lot of people who use
textbooks to study kind of fall into
this trap where they learn something
once and then they completely forget it
by the time they move on to the next
topic if you really want to remember
something you need to be practicing it a
lot and this applies to a lot of
different parts of learning a language
learning how to pronounce a word
learning a certain phrase learning just
a word in general all of these things
require a lot of repetition in order for
you to actually really get it cemented
in your brain
call me crazy but i often walk around my
house repeating phrases to myself that i
had just learned in a foreign language i
try and repeat them with correct
pronunciation and repeat them in a
natural manner and by doing this i'm
able to actually use that phrase when i
need to in conversation with someone and
[Applause]
and just going back to my last example
for a second this actually really helps
when learning phrases too if you're
repeating a phrase often and practicing
it with people often you're gonna
remember it but if you just read it once
from a book and expect to remember it
that's probably not gonna happen anyways
key point of the second tip repetition
is key and practice repetition whenever
you can practice phrases around your
house practice pronunciation when you're
out walking practice new words you
learned when you're in the bathroom
the third and final tip and i've kind of
already mentioned this already is
practice what you've actually learned
what is the point of learning a language
if you're not actually going to use what
you've learned in a real world situation
and with the internet today there are so
many good ways to be able to practice
with people it's crazy let's say you
learn some new phrases and you really
want to practice them well like i've
already mentioned you have video games
as an option two of my favorite video
games to practice are pub g and vr chat
in addition to video games you also have
language exchange apps so two ones that
i've heard that are pretty good are
hellotalk and tandem and the best part
of these apps is that you're meeting
people that share the interest of
language learning with you so it's far
more likely that they'll be very patient
with you and very understanding when
you're practicing it also means you can
get direct feedback on what you say and
again this direct feedback will help you
build so much confidence in your
language learning journey if you want to
step it up a notch you can use apps like
omegle or ometv
i will say you do have to be careful on
these apps there are certainly people on
there that do not want to practice
languages and i will leave it there but
it's really hard to beat because you're
connecting directly with native speakers
of certain languages this gives you the
opportunity to practice with native
speakers from the comfort of your own
home not to mention you're basically
having a real life conversation with
someone so it'll help you become more
comfortable when you actually are
talking to people in real life as well
the last option is you can go laoshu or
xiaoma style and just go out in public
and start talking to people now don't
get me wrong this can be very awkward
and embarrassing for people but it can
also lead to so many awesome outcomes as
well oddly enough when i was in china in
2019 i was out by myself walking through
a night market in a local part of town i
was probably the only foreigner in the
entire area but i said you know what i'm
going to speak some chinese to people
and at the time my chinese was not good
but regardless i went up to the food
stall with dumplings and i said to the man
man nihal
and the guy working the food stall got
so excited and so interested and he
started asking me all these questions
there was also a family to my right that
overheard it too and they were very
surprised and so then they began asking
me questions and in broken chinese i was
talking to them and trying my best to
communicate what ended up happening was
the family actually invited me to their
store for dinner so we headed on over to
their store and i got to have some great
food and enjoy some drinks as well and
of course the guy introduced me to his
whole family and he made me take a
and then after we were finished eating
he showed me around that entire part of
town and keep in mind all this happened
simply because i tried to speak a few
words of chinese now i'm not saying
that's going to happen for everybody but
some awesome things really can happen
when you immerse yourself in a foreign
language anyways i hope you enjoyed
