    what I've experienced so far as a learner is that the most important criterion in learning a language is continuity. Actually, learning a language depends on many different factors like age, intelligence, will, goal, and many other factors. and I believe is not achievable in just one year. of course, you mentioned that fluency meanings differ from one to another and it's really true. this is a process that needs steadiness and a good method of learning. "slow and steady wins the race".

    Repetition is boring and some people think that will take so much time to master a decent level of language for speaking, at least daily usage. But, I am so glad that I've been more than a year learning French with Duo, accomplishing level A1 and working on A2 level. Now, I am taking course in Udemy starting from 0 and it makes me easier to follow the lesson, even better! Now, I am pursuing my B1 Level for this year in Duo, and hopefully finishing B1 level from Udemy course. And, I am gong to take conversation class next year to get myself comfortable with speaking in French! InsyaAllah

      @@loistalagrand It depends on the goals of your program, but I think one way to stand out would be to focus more on vocab (like you mentioned in your video) and combine that with a glossika-type mass sentences SRS. An interesting way to implement this might be a set of 4-5 cards where the first card is just the definition, i.e. "to eat" with the response being "comer." Then the following sentences of the set could combine that vocabulary term with grammar points, i.e. "He ate the cake" followed by "El comió el pastel," "he is eating breakfast" "El esta comiendo desayuno," etc. Customizability is also huge and is the reason Anki is still the king of SRS programs (I've also put probably thousands of hours into Anki, just not for language acquisition purposes). I almost dropped Glossika on the first day I had it because you can absolutely no control over the SRS algorithm.

    Question: when you say watch without subtitles, do you mean turn off native language subtitles or turn off all subtitles, even in target language? Cuz in Japanese, I feel like it’s wasted to turn off Japanese subtitles when learning since it simultaneously lets you associate meanings to the kanji and also because of how contextual the language is (to the point that most Japanese TV utilizes hard coded subtitles with effects and for emphasis.). At the very least it helps me parse words and understand context before then trying it without.

    • @Otome_chan311
      @Otome_chan311 5 місяців тому +3

      If you're wanting to test fluency, subtitles off. If you're learning, subtitles on in the language you're learning should be fine. Though you should turn them off at some point because using subtitles is a crutch. You need to be able to hear and understand without seeing the subs.

    Thank you for this informative video, Loïs. As a French learner myself, I would love to have this level of fluency one day. Un vrai défi ! But besides your impressive English, the info you gave was really helpful. I agree that a lot of online language learners make the process seem easy; however, they don't always show the grueling process of listening non-stop to TL content and the time it takes to learn new vocabulary.
    Do you have any experience with Glossika? I recently subscribed to it for C1 French and some beginning Russian. I lost my motivation to continue with Anki and wanted an all-in-one audio + sentence structure, which Glossika seems to provide.
    Lastly, as a native English speaker (American English), I just wanted to help out and say that when it comes to the word "motivation" -- think of the first "o" as the sound of "eau" rather than "à". Your English is absolutely amazing and I'm about to binge-watch your other videos! Great info. Merci beaucoup. About to join the waitlist for Fluent Falcon.

    • @loistalagrand

      Thanks a lot for the feedback! I actually have a lot of experience with Glossika. I was in a similar situation where I was getting burned out with Anki, and I was looking to make the switch to something audio-based.
      I used Glossika for a while, but there were a few things I think could use some improvement.
      Being a software developer, I decided to develop my own software (the base for Fluent Falcon, which I'm polishing right now).
      However, for people who aren't programmers, Glossika is great. It can get extremely repetitive, though. The Glossika algorithm makes you hear the same sentence countless times in the first few days of learning it (compared to Anki for instance).

And i have tons of good cartoons with subtitles, only a matter of time before i become good. İ have lists of vocaboulary, i gathered books to study. İ see arabs all the time i can practice on and the teachers here are very kind. İ also have arabic keyboard, i even know how to write in classic arabic only have to press the dot.

But I am really bad at speaking and the problem is that I have NObody to speak with in English. No native speakers. No people who at least know how to speak English as I do.

      I've never lived in an English-speaking country either. I recommend that you take a look at sites like iTalki / preply / LiveLingua to get a tutor. There are plenty of native speakers who will talk with you. It's fairly affordable.

To date, she can't read in English and can only write a few words yet she is extremely fluent in English and can have a conversation on any topic. If you just want to be conversational in a language a lot of the advice given on the internet is great but all of it is not necessary

    Hi,this is Nikhil Gautam,it's been 3 month's I seriously started learning English language,I am doing excellent infact I am already working on the three pillars you talked about which are like pronunciation,vocabulary,grammar.I daily learn 17 to 20 new common words in English language,I daily practice with diff video to improve fluency,I daily read novel for atleast 30 minutes.You are 100 percent right that learning new vocabulary is the most difficult task,it takes time,it takes energy,especially when you revisit all vocabulary from beginning.I played this video because I wanted to know to answer of few question how much time it will take me to reach level which I call "upper intermediate level",I also got to know that atleast how much words you need to know to understand basic English conversation and to have conversation in English language.
    Finally, if I have made grammatical mistakes, I am sorry from the bottom of my heart,I didn't do that intentionally.

    "6,000 words if you actually understand a movie"
    that's just very subjective and depends on genre and also the language. For example, in a language based on the latin alphabet like Spanish or English, it is mainly vocab based on genre. If you watch a sci-fi film, just knowing 6k common words will mean you probably are having a hard time understanding sci-fi related vocab. Throw in a more difficult language like Japanese and now you have a very versatile language which can be both a blessing and a curse, like 10 different words that all mean the same thing but are used in completely different contexts....
    Even knowing the most common words will not get you watching a movie comfortably. I know close to 30k words in Japanese and am just know getting comfortable watching a movie or show mostly without pausing (but usually have jsubs on) . This may also be a good time to mention, as I'm sure you know, there is a difference between active vocab and passive vocab. I know 30k words and have almost no issue understanding the language....but when it comes to speaking it I am basically a toddler, mainly because I only focused on input and close to no output....so I would say I can use less than 1k words in conversation. Understanding and knowing how to use it are 2 different things ;)
    Although, while most learners of a language seem to have the mistaken idea that having an accent is a bad thing and that they should always strive to "sound" like a native, I actually think the opposite: people should embrace their accent. Everyone has an accent, that's unavoidable. If you learn American English, you think you may not have an accent, but listen to someone from New York, Texas, or Alabama...they all sound very different. Not to mention if you compare English from different countries like the UK or Australia.

      I suggest first learning the Korean alphabet "Hangul/Hangeul" and how to pronounce the sounds associated to each letter.
      Then if you want to use a traditional approach, use Billy's 3 books: the "Korean made Simple" series.
      If you want a more input-based approach, use Korean grammar in use (KGIU) beginner and watch the UA-cam channel "learn Korean in Korean"
      If you like watching Korean UA-cam videos or dramas, continue watching them and turn off native language subtitles and turn on Korean ones when you are ready to begin input. I recommend "migaku" or "kimchi reader" to look up vocabulary from subtitles.

    I have been commenting on many polyglot and language sites about the fact that all known language programs and classes at all schools fail. After 13 years of failure to become basically conversationally fluent in Tagalog and during that time spending several hundred hours searching for methods, I realized the truth. Think about it, any exam with less than 60% success is a failure. Imagine classes failing up to 60% continually. No language program or classes achieve greater than 60% basic fluency. Why? Something has been wrong for a long time. I contend no program or classes even get to 5%. Learners or acquirers drop out due to hopeless failure. Very short-term tests give a false impression of accomplishment since the ultimate goal fails. Question all programs and classes. Any rationalizations are hiding failure. The polyglots had better all get together and figure out what has been and is wrong. If any other subject had such failure an immediate fix would be attempted. Not so with languages. It just continues as it has for over a hundred years never achieving over 60% much less 5% for all those attempting basic fluency.
