If there is one thing I've learnt from you this year Steve, it's to repeatedly listen and read in my target language on a daily basis. As a result, my understanding has improved greatly. Now it's my speaking ability that lags behind. That's my next challenge.
@@Skylar_Shines I've been learning Māori (New Zealand) since the beginning of 2019. I'm now at a B2 High Intermediate level. I'm still immersing myself in the language every day. My goal is now to improve to an advanced 'C' level. How about you?
You might like it or feel better by focusing on it, but you don't need it (apart from situations where it is required). Learning new patterns of communication has never had anything to do with grammar in our evolutionary process. It all comes down to using language for things that increase dopamine and things that lower cortisol.
I award this idea a solid "meh." Yeah, memorizing phrases is great because you don't have to think about them when you just spit them out. Also, repetition is good because not only do you "learn," but you become able to recall what you've learned *faster.* Not having to think about grammar would be great, but that only works if you've memorized phrases for every single thing you want to say... Practice recalling and applying each grammar rule to get faster at applying it, and you'll be able to construct any phrase you need; learn idioms and fixed phrases to increase your speed in specific cases. (I'm a native English speaker and software engineer who has been teaching myself Japanese for 7.5 years, has read upwards of 4500 pages of Japanese text, and translates manga for funsies.)

What do you think are the best ways to overcome language barriers?
There's no barrier, just some hurdles, really.

I’m curious on what language you’re currently learning and how much you’ve improved

Hello Mr. Andrew how are you doing. I hope you are safe and in good health.
this is how you learn anything and everything
Not things like base jumping
Swahili with ngeli and like all the words are so similar. I feel like you need the grammar.

Do you mean that if I don't understand what people say, I will never learn?):
Is it true? If you know only 3000 words, can you speak a foreign language?
Hmm... I think I prefer immersive language learning because of the faster learning...
How is conversing with others who speak that language not immersive?
