Today I added French to the five languages I already study on Clozemaster it's a good habit.
Before the week is out I hope to be in the top 50 out of 1300.
Olly Richards when you do the Clozemaster challenge don't forget to put all 10 flags in the thumbnail and on the title too it'll be epic it'll be fun.
Thank you for the great tips here.
When I was backpacking in Quebec, Canada decades ago, I studied the fundamental vocabs and expressions of French. I was able make basic requests and interact with the locals. 2 years later the company that I was working for in Australia had business guests from Quebec (who builds speech recognition technologies). I took them out to lunch and shared my very limited French language skills that I could remember. They were surprised to hear the Quebecol accent from me. As I had not travelled elsewhere to learn/use other variances of French, I didn't know any better about how I had sounded.
I just started your intermediate Japanese and already finding myself falling down the rabbit hole and I'm still on lesson 1
Watching videos in Japanese is not hard - I'm actually going over a series I utilized over 20 years ago, and finding myself understanding more this time around. I also enjoy the game show "Attack 25" which has had a long run so you can easily find videos on UA-cam.
The challenge is speaking it regularly. I have my brother's family to practice with, fortunately and then it's just a matter of sticking to Japanese.

Thank you. We have saved time
Thanks 😊
You’re awesome !
Thank you :)
The last one is not “instant messaging.” If you had actually watched the whole video, you’d have found the last one was the app/sites were you can find a language exchange partner. As in, you help them with your English speaking knowledge and they help you with their French speaking knowledge.
Another one: whenever you're walking somewhere read the plate numbers of the cars you're walking past. I used to do that when I needed practice learning numbers and letters.
Nope
I like that idea!
Genius thanks
If you're walking somewhere without cars, describe people you see to yourself :) like una mujer con pelo negro
I'm 15 months into learning Arabic and I do pretty much all of these, except the flashcard one. I've found lots of success by using these methods which I've picked up on my own along the way. I'm at a point now, where I'm able to consume non-learning Arabic content and more-or-less understand it at a level that isn't totally over my head, which is motivating and exciting because it feels like a whole new world has opened up to me.
You really hit the nail on the head when you mentioned consuming "non-learning content". I've done the same with Russian and I constantly digest travel vlogs, podcasts, entertainment in the target language. It tricks my 🧠 into learning without feeling like I'm sitting through a grammar lesson🤓
One thing ive gotta do is stop watching videos on how to study and just keep studying lol. but I do enjoy watching these
I like this guy. Really, Olly is great.
I'd like to share with you.
A quarter of century ago I was studying hard to learn English. And I was practising long self-talks. I used to have long walks in the nearby meadows and I would talk to myself. I was telling myself something about something, or (rarely) pretending to be taking part in a conversation. When I lacked a word, I was trying to go around and find another, rather simpler or simplified version of saying the same.. Many times I missed words. When I came back home I was curious about pieces of vocabulary I didn't know. I attended a course in English at that time, and I think, I was the best person in speaking in the group. The shortage of vocabulary made me search for it in my old Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English (from the 80-ties).
Soon I passed a Cambridge exam (FCE) and I decided to enter a school for English teachers in my country (Poland). In order to do it, I had to take an entrance exam. It was an old proffessor of linguistcs, prof. Kleparski, who examined me that day. (Just a moment before i had been preparing myself (by secret talking) in the toilet.) He, the proffessor, started. He asked me a question in English, and in this moment all English stood before and ..as if... was inside me. I was relaxed, and I was speaking and speaking, without interruption, words & frases were coming to me, when needed, the practice of omitting words and frases I didn't know resulted in simple language, but really fluent. I passed.
So, it is true. Strange may it seem, but self-talk works and after long practice gives the result.
I would add podcasts to this list. They usually do take more than 5 minutes, but you can listen to them while doing other things - commuting, cooking etc.
Yes! Connecting the activities/habits to your day! Most days I listen to Noticias en la Mañana, and sometimes Noticias Telemundo 6:30 pm (which is typically a little longer), from Telemundo while driving to/from work. It's technically their live video newscast recorded, I think, but it works great in podcast form so I'm glad they share it as a podcast!
For Spanish: Jorge Ramos podcast, Ted en Espanol are also great
Learning Russian I listen to Russian with Max while doing mundane tasks. It's super helpful and I pick up something new every time
For me flashcards are an absolute must, and I indeed do my own sets rather than downloading default ones, for the exact reason that Olly mentioned funnily enough. I use spaced repetition and my Russian vocabulary expanded way more since I do this because I listen to music and write down words or sentences that interest me and I also get to understand more and more the music I listen to :)
Habit/Tip 9 blew my mind. Thanks, Olly!
With the flashcards point, I don't think it matters if you put a single word down, as long as you also include an example sentence, which helps you to remember the word in context. That's what I do for any new German words I come across.
your videos are always helpful, but somehow this one was even more helpfuller! I'm going to try the music and the short stories (and always having a book handy) like right now...cuz I need to re-learn German by August 2024. Big Thanks!
Thank you Olly. Really good tips!
Talking about YT (when u're at an intermediate level): The very best to me is finding vloggers in the target language who make content for natives ofc that also make the extra effort to put subs in their vlogs! 😎
In this way, they can help both foreigners who already live in that country and as well as all the people who dream of visiting or living there.
I'm looking for brazilian portugues vloggers 🥲
💯 agree, YT vlogs in the target language are an incredibly effective tool
Thank you so much! I will definitely try these tips. I always watch movies in French to help me learn the language better.
1) work with a tutor on Preply or italki🧑🏻💻 during the early stages
2)Practice with native speakers: Tandem app, video chats, local Meetup groups
3)YT content only in target language, subtitles target language
4)language learning videos in target language
5)podcasts in target language
Thanks Olly!
Very helpful and informative video I think.
Wow, I guess I should listen to Snoop Dog from now on to learn English. Great advice
I checked out a Russian children’s book from the library. I happened to get the one that had a typo that meant something naughty because of course that would happen to me. Kids’ books are great because they are geared toward little people learning their native language. I also pick up Russian community newspapers at the local European bakery. I can pick out words here and there but I learn new ones too.
Thanks for the suggestion. I like the idea of watching TV and my target language is a way to get some extra language exposure. Would it be better to watch a show that was produced in my target language, or to find a show you’re already familiar with and change the language.
8:40 I am curious to hear what you think about the people that actually promote "no speaking" periods for the first few hundred hours of language study, Olly. Apparently, you do magically start speaking after enough input, according to some ideologies lol. Would really like to know your thoughts .
The tip on using Spotify lyrics is brilliant. I may finally be able to understand the theme song from Midnight Diner, 深夜食堂.
for noel(xmas) im getting french for dummies(book) and maltese verbs book so im learning technacily 2 languages! love from canada
Olly best mentor❤❤❤
Love when you said: What is your favourite thing to watch on yt, apart from this channel of course. hahah, well said
Feeling the “Atomic Habits” motives.
Damn y'all are fast! 20 min video posted 10 minutes ago and already ppl commenting
Makes you wonder!
No you re slow...wow maybe people look when they get the notice
@JoshPecksDad or little babies with nothing to say just stupidly wanting attention for being first and not watching cause their life sucks....Mommy Mommy look at me I'm first can I sit at the big kids table now
plaza sesamo is great for newbies to español, loads of different inputs and songs
Do you know where I can get access to the best learning techniques and technologies in general?
Interesting tidbit. At the end of this video, I noticed the Korean word for friend Chin-gu is similar to the Japanese word I just learned shin-yu. Both these words probably use the same Kanji / Hanja. I already knew the other word in Japanese is tomodachi which probably doesn't exist in Korean.
Shin'yuu is 親友, which is 친우 chinwoo in Korean. 친구 chingu is 親舊, which was loaned from literary Chinese.
Tomodachi is 友達. 達 tachi is a plural marker, so you're right it doesn't exist in Korean.
The making the new UA-cam account is a great hack
All these ideas are found in a new book called HOW TO LEARN A LANGUAGE - The 7 Strategies of Highly Effective Language Learners by Simon Brampton - Get him on your channel!!! 🤩
Or my German teacher who was using most of these in the mid 1980s. Obviously, we didn’t have podcasts then, but she had us watch German movies and had frequent potluck meetings where we all had to just chat in German for an hour with no English allowed. . . She had us making our own flashcards, counting coins, singing with music, and reading cartoons like Calvin and Hobbs in German, too.
Hola, Olly! Estoy intentando aprender español. He comprado tu curso " bulletproof memory ( aunque no era aceptada al grupo de facebook) y tengo la pregunta siguiente: the bit where I do the first one, the bit where I write the word down with the definition and play with it paying attention, how carajo can I do that with whole phrases and sentences?
Que carajo haces? Que día carajo tengo!
You Tube has (mini apps?) calledChrome (@etc. co.s) et extensions that highlight, save, translate etc. words (& more?
See certain polyglotters like Zoe
of Zoe languages, Lindie Botes?,
Ruri Ohama? Dr. Izzy Searleseyc.?, etc.
Good luck!
I do self talk too, those Spaniards must think I'm crazy. 😂
Maybe I should start wearing headphones while doing it so it seems like I'm on the phone.
Go Toulouse!
I understood the boat with many cannons pretty well, but the movie I couldn't understand without the subtitles. The voice is too unclear. Is the movie available with subtitles in Italian?
In my flash cards, I put the source of the word in the flashcard in addition to the number of times I've failed to recall the meaning of the word.
Do you know any French comic books? I can read online
Olly bro please take the Clozemaster 10 languages 10 questions each challenge it would be a really cool way to showcase your talent and inspire others for fun.
What is that challenge? I’m interested
@@Ivaylo1 download the Clozemaster application
choose 10 languages that you think you may someday study or that you find interesting.
Have a piece of paper and a pencil sitting next to you if you can video The challenge that would be cool.
For me my languages of choice were French Dutch Indonesian Russian Turkish Arabic Mandarin Tagalog and Hindi.
to my astonishment in the Russian Indonesian and Turkish I scored a 10 out of 10 I got I scored a 9 out of 10 in French and a 7 out of 10 in Dutch the others weren't as outstanding but still it was a lot of fun.
@@Ivaylo1 if you choose languages like interlingua and Esperanto I guarantee you'll be surprised how well you score if you take your time also Latin is a good one to choose.

Sounds about right in French. See if you can find a language game, to help with that. Like a computer based one, for language learning. My oldest learned French well enough from an hour with it, that she was a volunteer teacher assistant in a 2nd grade French immersion classroom just 6 months later.
Hello 🎉
Im way too early also trying to learn a language that doesn't have any movies with subtitles and not many books. How should I approach this?
What language?
What is your objective learning this language? If it’s talking to people in your family or community, then maybe taking an output-forward approach makes more sense, since there isn’t much input to work with. If you just like learning the language because it’s linguistically interesting, then reading grammar studies is OK in and of itself, even if you’ll never become fluent. If it’s a dead language with only a few written surviving texts, then just focus on translating those texts. Does that make sense?
@@alexandrah535 yeah I'm trying to communicate with my family and people around me
@@alexandrah535 how should I approach the output method though? I've only seen input methods
@@mariamcneil3838 Im learning Hmong
Those language apps or websites where you each help each other learn each other’s language? I quit all of them because the other people kept getting banned for using the app/site as a dating app.
Interesting viewpoint. I'm using hellotalk. I don't have a profile picture or post social pictures on my timelines. I understand how that can be true when people use it as social media and not expect social media outcomes. The major issue with this app is that it can be distracting based on level. I wish I held off until B2 instead of B1.
I've been watching your channel for a while and it's inspired me. Can you please talk about what's going on in Palestine and whether knowing Arabic gives you any perspective, being able to watch and understand reports from the ground in Gaza? Or if you know Persian as well, how that helps you understand the Afghan refugees' struggles as they are being evicted from Pakistan?

I am actually going to disagree with you here because I think wacthing videos/movies/podcasts (also readinh books) is actually the real backbone of my language learning and everything else is the bonus content. Dedicated "study time" is not super great because it kinda puts subconscious pressure to me that I must instantly everything I have studied and it is obviously harder to commit time to active studying.
Just getting exposed to a lot of words in many different ways seems way more useful to really make progress

I'm not convinced listening to music in the language you are trying to learn is all that effective. Cripes, I can barely understand the lyrics of English-language music, and even then, the grammar in songs is often...let's say, horrible.
Agree. I wouldn't recommend this as a start for someone learning English. The music might be enjoyable for the listener, but depending on genre, the lyrical content can range from the profound, to incoherent ramblings, to blasphemous drivel. No harm in it, as long as the listener can discern differences in what can be considered "artistic license" - or whether it even deserves a license.
We live in a world where content creators need to create content. It's up there with "Change the language on your phone.
Apart from the points you've raised it comes with an opportunity cost. If you sit down and listen to a bunch of songs you've had very little in the way of exposure to the language compared to something like reading.
It helps your ear get used to the sounds of the language you're learning. And if you're following the lyrics while listening it helps you get better at reading at speed.
Heck, he disses TV watching in the language, but I guarantee you'll get a lot more out of that than listening to music in a language.
I think everyone knows there's going to be a stack of artistic license going on in any music from any country. We listen not to learn phrases, but to learn more about the culture and the rhythms of the language. @@toms8937
On UA-cam, I watch some Watchmojo videos : they're entertaining and available in multiple languages.
