This is easily one of the best channels for language learning. It’s extremely underrated. Extreme levels of detail, very insightful, very practical, no BS, clear presentation of information, and results to back it up. Because of how radical your method is and the level of success, you establish a pretty good reference point for other learners. I didn’t realize until having watched your videos what specifically I needed to be doing to finally lock in my Spanish. I’m planning on doing it now. I literally need to write about things I commonly talk about and rehearse speaking them. It’s so simple, but I was too focused on consuming a wide array of inputs, and my Spanish is like your French was-a lot of recognition, but speaking lagging well behind. The wildest part is you don’t have a ton of uploads, but I’m subscribing anyway.
getting fluent in 6 weeks is BS. this is not one of the best channels. really? 6 weeks? you mean to say got fluent faster than a native italian who has lived in italy with italians everyday? it takes years my man.

Learning like a native isn’t efficient nor does it make sense to follow that path as a language learner. Natives start learning their languages right out of the womb and take years to learn it, while that is essentially their only job, doing so 24/7… this isn’t practical for any language learner that has less than 3-5 years to study the language uninterrupted. It’s also unreasonable to learn this way, because it doesn’t take advantage of the fact that as a person who has acquired one language you already know most of the general concepts, consequently your process to learn should be different than a native learning their first language and, given the same amount of time and exposure as a native learning their first language, the process should go faster. It can go even faster if your methodology is refined-e.g. like the US military’s language learning institute which has found an extremely aggressive approach to teach languages in 1-3 years. They admit though that their process works because of how much surface area of the language they cover in that fixed window of time-it’s effective because it’s comprehensive, and it’s fast because they’re getting in a similar number of hours as though you were studying the language over an entire college tenure. All that to say-there are no shortcuts. It’s just about reps and avoiding major missteps. My biggest takeaway from this channel has been to work on script writing and practicing. It’s understated how important doing this is for reaching fluency. So I’ve set this as a goal in my two target languages-Spanish and Japanese. All that being said, did this guy get “fluent” in 6 weeks, depends on how he’s defining it. He probably did become really comfortable with a small working set of the language and capable of talking about topics adjacent to what he learned. However, I wouldn’t be surprised if random topics outside of his comfort zone are very rough-there’s just not enough time in 6 weeks to absorb that much content. So we’re in agreement there. I just like some of the concepts he presents here-specifically writing a sort of manifest about all the things you ever intend to talk about and reviewing it daily. More channels should highlight how useful this could potentially be. I will agree with you in the general sense though. His timelines aren’t important to me, because they are kind of nonsense.

One thing I will challenge him on though is how he works on acquisition of the culture, because learning a language goes beyond the ability to understand and employ grammatical structures… it’s also body language, knowing when to use what, understanding how to approach each encounter in a culturally appropriate way. The issue with becoming extremely fluid while lacking a depth in the culture is that native speakers may expect more of you and your errors may become more jarring-this is just speculation though. E.g. if a guy with a fluid American accent commits tons of technical and cultural errors, I’m more likely to hold them to a higher standard linguistically than a person with many pronunciation errors. Fluency can be a double edged sword.

It helps to just remember where you should use it. Howhighly surprised was I when I found out that I could just say whatever I wanted without thinking about how to put it into words.
3 years ago French, 2 years ago Spanish, 1 year ago Italian.....Whats next?? Dude, you will never get alzeimers if you carry on like this! I am learning 2 languages simultaneously and your tips have come in handy. You rock!!!!
I'm trying to do it with Persian so let me ask you... how do you deal with the fact it's another script? Do you take any additional steps? For me the biggest problem is that I cannot easily identify the words, like I don't know if it's gerund or not, so I think I might be missing something before the actual first step that he's doing.

Awesome stuff!
I love this so much! I used to memorize scripts for my Japanese final presentations and I have to admit learning that way really kept the vocabulary and pronunciations into my head. Granted I was memorizing my lines that I spoke and others that were said but I felt like it truly helped me to remember some phrasings, vocabulary and grammar points (we had to include specific kinds for the finals). I knew it was useful because of how we can memorize songs and the vocabulary and intonation within it. But it never really occurred to me how useful it could be and how well it translates to building a base vocabulary for speaking especially for using this method. And that it could be such an effect, although somewhat challenging, way to learn grammar. But the benefit is so much greater, it's amazing. They say that genius leaves clues and I'm so glad you've been chronicling your method and progress. You really opened up a whole new door to language learning! 👏 ✨️✨️
Been using LingQ to learn Italian for the past month or so as I have a trip planned to mid November there, couldn't put too much time due to work this month but definitely will try to get as much comprehensible input as possible before the trip. I've been using this method to learn English for the past few years and it really boosted my comprehension. I've always enjoyed this type of video of people putting a lot of effort in a short period of time and getting incredible results. Keep up the good work bud!
Young man, you have discovered an amazing language learning system. I'm going to start with Spanish and use your system. Unfortunately, I won't be able to devote as much time as you did but I think I can give about two hours a day. I will post a comment in your How I Got Fluent in Spanish as I progress. Thank you for sharing.
Glad to see we didn't have to wait another year for a follow-up lol. Can't wait to see what happens at the end of this because I've been digging your Spanish method. Another language or two you and might put other methods and apps out of business.
Please drop the rest of your method, as this is really inspiring. I'm now following your method as it is such a creative and fun method to learn a new language. It is way far natural compared to the traditional way and it also solves the question of how kids learn a language and why we cannot learn like them! Please keep it up!!
this channel and the channel days and words are straight up the best language learning channels on youtube. both of them literally showcase how on 1 form of content is the best way to learn a language. just repeat, repeat, repeat. golden
Dude, I missed your videos so much! This is really a great exercise bc it allows you to practice pronunciation, speaking in sentences, getting a feel for sentence structure, building vocabulary, etc all in one exercise. Definitely picking out a video for Japanese after watching this and trying the exercise out!
Thank you so much for these videos!!! I’m a homeschool mom and you have inspired me to not only use this method with my kids, but for myself as well. Sending you love and high vibes my friend🤓
You’re an inspiration. Your technique helped me learn Spanish and I’m still not the best at understanding heavy business (complex wording and formalities are a hurdle), but I am conversational and can hold my own in native countries, casually. Keep grinding!
@@Topsealguy Shoot me a DM let’s chop it up. Mi novia es Dominicana y quando mi fui a la isla, todos de gente decir que “ya tu sabe! Tu seguro que no Dominicano?!” Dije que, “nah, soy de Nueva York…pero tengo amor en mi corazon pa ti, la cultura.” 😂 Senor Language Lords es el trato real!
L-O-V-E the thoroughness of your videos to get us quickly to a beginner conversational level! I've studied several languages too, some to fluency. I suspect your methods work well for you because of the similarities between French-Spanish-Italian and your skill in picking up Latin based languages. I wish you would (prove me wrong and) try a technique for a language that is more difficult for English speakers, like Swedish, Finnish, Russian, any of the Asian languages...I wish you great success with the journey and I'd love to see how long it takes you to converse and how/if you have to tweak your process. Thanks for another great video!
Reminds me of how I had to memorize the three little pigs in french when I was in grade 8. Still remember 90% of it, was the only french class that I actually learnt something from
You sir are a king. It’s amazing how we can solve problems with no money. How doesn’t the entire US education system make us all do this for a month, we would learn how to think and be some much more intelligent. You know how to think as opposed to following instructions. Keep it up!! You are doing great work.
Broski it’s good to have you back, I honestly thought something happened to you when you ghosted for bare time. Keep dropping the content and I promise your channel is gonna skyrocket, I shared your video to all of my friends 🤞🏽
i started learning Japanese early November, and I just spent every hour of this 4 day weekend studying every major particle. can’t wait to try out your methods, i’ve been looking forward to actually speaking for the longest time. i hope you’re cooking up something for the “harder” languages. i’m interested to see how your method changes.
What an incredible video series man! Cannot express enough how grateful I am for a resource that articulates the EXACT problems I’m having while learning, and their causes but also how you’ve iterated on and solved them. I’ve spent months building a passive vocabulary in Italian using frequency dictionaries and input, writing etc. but haven’t been able to eke out intelligible phrases in conversation practices with real people. Months! Somehow I stumble across the exact problem I’m facing and actionable solution for it. Thank you, I can’t wait to try some of these things to solidify my base.
I did the French study routine for 1 month and gave me a good base level communication with Natives. I promise, it worked. And everyday for 5-6 months have I not missed anything in French content and speaking. Although after the first month, I wasn't as intense to it anymore but I still didn't slack off. Thank you brother for showing that it's possible. Peace! 🙌
While watching the videos one thing I kept having trouble wrapping my head around was how you were practicing the translation. In the video we see you reciting the Italian but I didn't see you saying something in English then repeating it in Italian or vice versa. I was thinking what good does it do for him to just be able to recite things in Italian if he doesn't know the translation, well other than getting the pronunciation and familiarity with the sound of the language. Common sense tells me you memorized both English and Italian but just spoke the Italian part but for some reason my brain just got stuck in the mud because I did not visually see you doing it, so I tried something. I played the Easy Italian video and tried to memorize each sentence as it appeared on screen. I read/spoke the English then as I spoke the Italian in my mind I was thinking the English portion and doing that it, whatever block I had went away and the method, even though it was just a few lines of dialogue, was really effective. I look forward to utilizing this method. Also your videos helped me realize Iwas not spending nearly enough time studying so I am going to have to become more disciplined and consistent with that.
Comprehensible input of any kind will only increase your passive vocabulary, every form of studying a language will actually only give you a few active vocab/phrases and a whole lot of passive vocabulary. To start seeing success in building active vocab you have to speak the language, correct your mistakes and then speak again and again until you no longer need to correct any mistakes the way Language Lords shows in his first video, that form of learning was the best thing he's come up with so far. What he does here in this video is extremely unnecessary, he could've built a huge passive vocab base by reading through this exact script with complete understanding (Meaning looking up all the words and understanding every line spoken) 2-4 times a day and accomplished the same thing in a week, in fact he could've done it with two videos in a week, at the end of the day him memorizing the script was to build his vocab and get a sense for grammer without studying it, reading with understanding would've helped him achieve exactly that, memorizing this script has just made him quite familiar with the vocab it contains nothing more. But maybe I'm wrong seeing as he was able to communicate a few thoughts through Italian through only this method of learning...
As a native spaeker, i would rate you 8.5 out of 10. You just need to improve double consonants and the general tune (Maybe focus more on syllables). Remember to pronounce the E at the end of the words too. Great work!
My man I just wanna let your know how impressive it that so many people wanna watch your content on UA-cam only based on a few videos! Your content is dope Cheers from Denmark
Dude you be on demon time I was revisiting ur old videos and wondering where u been and low and behold u was in the cave cooking up another master piece learning a whole new language that’s really cool I aspire to reach where u at and finally crack this Spanish
This is what the military does, learning most common basic words for simple communication with target culture area. It is blood for the body. The hydraulics essential for transporting less common words. I like this approach. One way to have fun with it, is take a sentence and change a noun or verb or adjective and make it sound funny. Like the 'madlibs' books for kids.
I absolutelly love this agressive aparoach. I deffinetly will try this with German. Where did you find out about this? It must be like the best system of learning languages because I really don't see anybody recomending so much effort and having this good accent and results over all.
Did you just pick an "easy Spanish" video and memorise its entire script? - my only fear with doing that is I will only be able to recite those words without knowing the meaning of what I'm saying.
@@sylenx02 well tbh at this point I don’t have the time to do it anymore so I changed my learning method to comprehensible input but really any video that interest you or Easy Spanish works too
Your method rules so hard. All about just getting straight to it. I myself am fluent in Spanish, and I can speak a couple other languages on a basic level. A lot of people around me think I’ve got some special knack but I really don’t think I do. Your method shows how doable learning a language is and can be for anyone. You’ve just gotta put in the time and go about it wisely. I love how clear you make everything. We await your next vid!
This is great stuff, and a useful counterbalance to those gurus who claim that all you need is input. If you're like me, you can achieve high levels of reading and listening and still not be able to speak a word. I need a lot of consious speaking practice, and this seems like an efficient and fun way to start. And I particularly like the idea of using a little vocab to fluency at the outset. You need a foundation to build on! In my experience, one of the key problems with language learning is that people move on too fast, before they have really mastered and internalised the point they are working on. Being able to slowly write out an exercise is not nearly enough - it has to become easy and automatic...
Tenes mucho talento, seguí así. Tengo 14 y me inspiras un montón. Yo también estoy aprendiendo francés por mi cuenta, quiero aprender italiano, polaco, ruso y alemán. Inglés ya sé. El ruso lamentablemente lo tuve que dejar porque me quiero concentrar en el francés y capaz de vez en cuando en el polaco. Por tu video me dí cuenta que el italiano es muy fácil para mí en pronunciación, así que voy a empezar a estudiarlo. Saludos desde Argentina.
Great to see the evolution of the process. It will be interesting to see hour much time it takes you to learn a language that is completely different from Spanish or French, like Russian or something. Would you say that the total number of hours you put in to each language matches the amount of hours that it is estimated for an English speaker to learn the language?
1. I don't know how effective this reeeaally is, but I do like a lot of Cam's techniques & admire his dedication. 🥰 2. I get what he's trying to do here but I prefer his other technique of memorizing personal stories/monologues. I just think it's more useful to memorize sentences having to do with one's own life (family, hobbies, travel etc...) than sentences having to do with random YT lang videos. The vid does add the listening component which is valuable. 3. The thing that makes Cam's techniques work for him is his dedication, the hours he puts into them... but make no mistake, this rote memorization shit is PAINFUL ( this is why lang learners search for less painful techniques such as comprehensible input & immersion). It will take a lot of motivation & focus to make this work. 4. I can see myself memorizing a couple of short personal monologues or conversation scripts (ala Moses McCormick), but not this long ass video memorization. This is a little crazy. lolol Thanks for the vid!
I'm only 2 months into learning a language, so I'm gonna try this method. If i see drastic results you better believe I'm gonna make a video and credit tf out of you lol this seems like a super effective method! Thanks 😊
I’m glad to see you’re ok. Your first vids I saw were so inspiring. Then you disappeared! Very interesting series for the Italian journey and I can’t wait to see the rest.
This is so interesting! Would be really interested in how you maintain fluency, do you still do exercises in French? How often? Is it easy to forget everything?
Hi there, your experiments are great, i am looking forward to the results. You also need to consider the fact that spanish french and italian belong to the same family and therefore it is so much easier to learn one of the if you already know one or two of them. I propose to try this approach with a language that belong to another family of language to see if it really works. You may choose german or swedish or what ever. I love your videos, thanks a lot for sharing them, i am very curious to try out that 5min speaking technique of yours with german, i can read books but my speaking skills in german sucks and i realised that i cannot go further without actively recalling words and phrases , thus speaking lol

Very grateful that you've taken the time to break down these steps. I'm using them to learn Esperanto. Not as much source material around, but many people produce vlogs and I have come across a whole documentary in the language!
Y'all i think he burned out. The thing is, i really think he's for real and that he really does learn these languages the way he describes, teaches, and documents it. Just that, doing it the way he does simply isn't sustainable. If he has a full time job, what he's doing is going to put a strain on so many aspects of his life: mental health, physical health, and financial stability. Not everyone can risk their day jobs on a UA-cam career, or put in 8hours of study time on top of a job. Also, learning languages the way he does is so, so intense. People generally need 2-4 years on average to learn a new language and achieve fluency WITH FORMAL CLASSES. Imagine shoehorning all that knowledge in 1-2 months. That's terrifyingly insane. I'm actually SO GLAD he's taking a break. Doing it like this seems like it makes you forget to be kind to yourself, setting a precedent that every attempt at learning must be achieved under extremely high criterias. This just HAS to be stressful. Cameron, if you see this, I'm glad you're taking a breather. Take all the time you need. I've learned so much from you already. Be kind to yourself.
I'm currently trying to do the same in spanish, and can confirm it's really intence. I'm getting some success, but yet I go really slow, much slower than he does (did), it's really frustrating.
Hi! New subscriber here. I really admire you for your commitment learning my native language, your doing an amazing job! I would like to try your method to polish my Turkish, I was wondering about those extra words you added to the vocab of the video...maybe I'm asking for too much but could you tell us which one you learned?

I've watched your videos since you were learning French. Me dejas asombrado, con cada idioma nuevo que aprendes tus técnicas de aprendizaje del idioma mejoran. I know a little bit of English, well actually I can understand when people speak but my speaking isn't good, I don't practice it. Me gustaría aplicar este método con el frances, italiano y portugués, pero me pregunto si lo podre aplicar con el chino o coreano?
from an italian your doing great if I can say one thing tho is that I think your spanish as affected the pronounciation of the world "forte" 13:25 because I heard it as "fUorte" in the first video too
Yes your method is correct. We learn traditional arabic book through memorizing sentences and repeat it 5-10 times a day. Fortunately we didn't practice much as for your suggestion OUTPUT. We understand what other people are saying but we stutter as when we replying to them
Veramente molto bravo, complimenti. I video che hai pubblicato finora, però, si basano sul parlare l'italiano. Che cosa succede se un italiano ti inizia a fare domande?

I love this so much! I used to memorize scripts for my Japanese final presentations and I have to admit learning that way really kept the vocabulary and pronunciations into my head. Granted I was memorizing my lines that I spoke and others that were said but I felt like it truly helped me to remember some phrasings, vocabulary and grammar points (we had to include specific kinds for the finals). I knew it was useful because of how we can memorize songs and the vocabulary and intonation within it. But it never really occurred to me how useful it could be and how well it translates to building a base vocabulary for speaking especially for using this method. And that it could be such an effect, although somewhat challenging, way to learn grammar. But the benefit is so much greater, it's amazing.
They say that genius leaves clues and I'm so glad you've been chronicling your method and progress. You really opened up a whole new door to language learning! 👏 ✨️✨️
And in my case, dialogs in French. Hopfully I might apply it to other languages.
Been using LingQ to learn Italian for the past month or so as I have a trip planned to mid November there, couldn't put too much time due to work this month but definitely will try to get as much comprehensible input as possible before the trip. I've been using this method to learn English for the past few years and it really boosted my comprehension. I've always enjoyed this type of video of people putting a lot of effort in a short period of time and getting incredible results. Keep up the good work bud!
We want new video!!!! Come back pleaseeeeee
Young man, you have discovered an amazing language learning system. I'm going to start with Spanish and use your system. Unfortunately, I won't be able to devote as much time as you did but I think I can give about two hours a day. I will post a comment in your How I Got Fluent in Spanish as I progress. Thank you for sharing.
Im a native but im just available the weekends
did you learn spanish? after 1 month
how is it? 😊
Are you able to hold a conversation speaking in spanish yet?
Glad to see we didn't have to wait another year for a follow-up lol. Can't wait to see what happens at the end of this because I've been digging your Spanish method. Another language or two you and might put other methods and apps out of business.
Please drop the rest of your method, as this is really inspiring. I'm now following your method as it is such a creative and fun method to learn a new language. It is way far natural compared to the traditional way and it also solves the question of how kids learn a language and why we cannot learn like them! Please keep it up!!
Glad to hear it. Had to take a little break lol. But new video next month.
@languagelords I'm so happy! I love your channel and your methods ❤
we want it bro@@languagelords

this channel and the channel days and words are straight up the best language learning channels on youtube. both of them literally showcase how on 1 form of content is the best way to learn a language. just repeat, repeat, repeat. golden
Dude, I missed your videos so much! This is really a great exercise bc it allows you to practice pronunciation, speaking in sentences, getting a feel for sentence structure, building vocabulary, etc all in one exercise. Definitely picking out a video for Japanese after watching this and trying the exercise out!
Thank you so much for these videos!!! I’m a homeschool mom and you have inspired me to not only use this method with my kids, but for myself as well. Sending you love and high vibes my friend🤓
You’re an inspiration. Your technique helped me learn Spanish and I’m still not the best at understanding heavy business (complex wording and formalities are a hurdle), but I am conversational and can hold my own in native countries, casually.
Keep grinding!
Prove it

Shoot me a DM let’s chop it up.
Mi novia es Dominicana y quando mi fui a la isla, todos de gente decir que “ya tu sabe! Tu seguro que no Dominicano?!” Dije que, “nah, soy de Nueva York…pero tengo amor en mi corazon pa ti, la cultura.” 😂
Senor Language Lords es el trato real!
thanks for getting me interested in languages! i'm now getting better and on the way to b2+ in 3 languages
L-O-V-E the thoroughness of your videos to get us quickly to a beginner conversational level!
I've studied several languages too, some to fluency. I suspect your methods work well for you because of the similarities between French-Spanish-Italian and your skill in picking up Latin based languages.
I wish you would (prove me wrong and) try a technique for a language that is more difficult for English speakers, like Swedish, Finnish, Russian, any of the Asian languages...I wish you great success with the journey and I'd love to see how long it takes you to converse and how/if you have to tweak your process.
Thanks for another great video!
Waiting for the next in the series. Been 10 months. Hope you're ok.
Love your videos I get so much motivation from these!
Reminds me of how I had to memorize the three little pigs in french when I was in grade 8. Still remember 90% of it, was the only french class that I actually learnt something from
You sir are a king. It’s amazing how we can solve problems with no money. How doesn’t the entire US education system make us all do this for a month, we would learn how to think and be some much more intelligent. You know how to think as opposed to following instructions. Keep it up!! You are doing great work.
You have to write a book outlining your methods. like a self-help for language learning.
Broski it’s good to have you back, I honestly thought something happened to you when you ghosted for bare time. Keep dropping the content and I promise your channel is gonna skyrocket, I shared your video to all of my friends 🤞🏽
Definitely going to try this method!!!
i started learning Japanese early November, and I just spent every hour of this 4 day weekend studying every major particle. can’t wait to try out your methods, i’ve been looking forward to actually speaking for the longest time. i hope you’re cooking up something for the “harder” languages. i’m interested to see how your method changes.
How is it going
What an incredible video series man! Cannot express enough how grateful I am for a resource that articulates the EXACT problems I’m having while learning, and their causes but also how you’ve iterated on and solved them. I’ve spent months building a passive vocabulary in Italian using frequency dictionaries and input, writing etc. but haven’t been able to eke out intelligible phrases in conversation practices with real people. Months! Somehow I stumble across the exact problem I’m facing and actionable solution for it. Thank you, I can’t wait to try some of these things to solidify my base.
I did the French study routine for 1 month and gave me a good base level communication with Natives. I promise, it worked. And everyday for 5-6 months have I not missed anything in French content and speaking. Although after the first month, I wasn't as intense to it anymore but I still didn't slack off. Thank you brother for showing that it's possible. Peace! 🙌
While watching the videos one thing I kept having trouble wrapping my head around was how you were practicing the translation. In the video we see you reciting the Italian but I didn't see you saying something in English then repeating it in Italian or vice versa. I was thinking what good does it do for him to just be able to recite things in Italian if he doesn't know the translation, well other than getting the pronunciation and familiarity with the sound of the language. Common sense tells me you memorized both English and Italian but just spoke the Italian part but for some reason my brain just got stuck in the mud because I did not visually see you doing it, so I tried something.
I played the Easy Italian video and tried to memorize each sentence as it appeared on screen. I read/spoke the English then as I spoke the Italian in my mind I was thinking the English portion and doing that it, whatever block I had went away and the method, even though it was just a few lines of dialogue, was really effective. I look forward to utilizing this method. Also your videos helped me realize Iwas not spending nearly enough time studying so I am going to have to become more disciplined and consistent with that.
You need to watch his previous video about learning Italian. Then you'll understand how entirely this method works.
What matters the most is comprehensible input.
Facts
Comprehensible input of any kind will only increase your passive vocabulary, every form of studying a language will actually only give you a few active vocab/phrases and a whole lot of passive vocabulary.
To start seeing success in building active vocab you have to speak the language, correct your mistakes and then speak again and again until you no longer need to correct any mistakes the way Language Lords shows in his first video, that form of learning was the best thing he's come up with so far.
What he does here in this video is extremely unnecessary, he could've built a huge passive vocab base by reading through this exact script with complete understanding (Meaning looking up all the words and understanding every line spoken) 2-4 times a day and accomplished the same thing in a week, in fact he could've done it with two videos in a week, at the end of the day him memorizing the script was to build his vocab and get a sense for grammer without studying it, reading with understanding would've helped him achieve exactly that, memorizing this script has just made him quite familiar with the vocab it contains nothing more.
But maybe I'm wrong seeing as he was able to communicate a few thoughts through Italian through only this method of learning...
what matters most is input, it doesn't have to be comprehensible, your brains not stupid
@@lloweywhat are you talking about
2 videos coup sur coup ! Tu nous gâtes 😀 encore bravo pour ton talent ! A plus
As a native spaeker, i would rate you 8.5 out of 10. You just need to improve double consonants and the general tune (Maybe focus more on syllables). Remember to pronounce the E at the end of the words too. Great work!
I was looking for a feedback from a native.
Super!
Love the method, but also his video editing skills are next level!
this channel is better than any language learning content i seen before.
My man I just wanna let your know how impressive it that so many people wanna watch your content on UA-cam only based on a few videos! Your content is dope
Cheers from Denmark
Hi Cameron, no updates on the channel since 8 months ago. Everything OK? Would love to hear from you. Great language learning content!
YES! Thank you for doing all the research for this method and sharing it with us! Your explanations and tips on what to prioritize are so helpful!
Dude you be on demon time I was revisiting ur old videos and wondering where u been and low and behold u was in the cave cooking up another master piece learning a whole new language that’s really cool I aspire to reach where u at and finally crack this Spanish
This is what the military does, learning most common basic words for simple communication with target culture area. It is blood for the body. The hydraulics essential for transporting less common words. I like this approach. One way to have fun with it, is take a sentence and change a noun or verb or adjective and make it sound funny. Like the 'madlibs' books for kids.
We miss you king 👏🏽
I absolutelly love this agressive aparoach. I deffinetly will try this with German. Where did you find out about this? It must be like the best system of learning languages because I really don't see anybody recomending so much effort and having this good accent and results over all.
This video is very helpful. Gives me a new approach on how to study language 💯
I started using this method with Spanish and I can see more progress than before!
Same
How’s it going now?
@@bigbobabc123 I can speak but I have to think what I have to say but that’s only because of my lack of consistency and practice
Did you just pick an "easy Spanish" video and memorise its entire script? - my only fear with doing that is I will only be able to recite those words without knowing the meaning of what I'm saying.
@@sylenx02 well tbh at this point I don’t have the time to do it anymore so I changed my learning method to comprehensible input but really any video that interest you or Easy Spanish works too
I love this brother. Your content is fantastic!
Your method rules so hard. All about just getting straight to it. I myself am fluent in Spanish, and I can speak a couple other languages on a basic level. A lot of people around me think I’ve got some special knack but I really don’t think I do. Your method shows how doable learning a language is and can be for anyone. You’ve just gotta put in the time and go about it wisely. I love how clear you make everything. We await your next vid!
Wow, absolutely incredible! Cameron I'm already integrating your techniques in my pursuit of acquiring Mandarin Chinese. Grazie tante! 谢谢你！
This is great stuff, and a useful counterbalance to those gurus who claim that all you need is input.
If you're like me, you can achieve high levels of reading and listening and still not be able to speak a word. I need a lot of consious speaking practice, and this seems like an efficient and fun way to start.
And I particularly like the idea of using a little vocab to fluency at the outset. You need a foundation to build on!
In my experience, one of the key problems with language learning is that people move on too fast, before they have really mastered and internalised the point they are working on. Being able to slowly write out an exercise is not nearly enough - it has to become easy and automatic...
Well done! Portuguese is waiting for you😊
tysm, you're the best !!
Could you try learning Mandarin next? It would be fascinating to see how well this method works when learning a non-European language!! :)
Tenes mucho talento, seguí así. Tengo 14 y me inspiras un montón.
Yo también estoy aprendiendo francés por mi cuenta, quiero aprender italiano, polaco, ruso y alemán. Inglés ya sé. El ruso lamentablemente lo tuve que dejar porque me quiero concentrar en el francés y capaz de vez en cuando en el polaco.
Por tu video me dí cuenta que el italiano es muy fácil para mí en pronunciación, así que voy a empezar a estudiarlo.
Saludos desde Argentina.
Bro, this video has been realized 1 year ago, if bro has an learning time of 4 - 6 weeks, imagine how many languages this guy knows now at 2024 😦
I would like to profess my gratitude towards the universe for leading me to this video.
We spend a lot of time with a little vocabulary rather than spend a little time with a lot of vocabulary .....Dammmm you hit me 😂 TRUE
Great to see the evolution of the process. It will be interesting to see hour much time it takes you to learn a language that is completely different from Spanish or French, like Russian or something.
Would you say that the total number of hours you put in to each language matches the amount of hours that it is estimated for an English speaker to learn the language?
Where is the rest of the series? I'm really excited for it:)
Nice video man, keep putting that effort every day!! Your pronunciation is good!!
1. I don't know how effective this reeeaally is, but I do like a lot of Cam's techniques & admire his dedication. 🥰
2. I get what he's trying to do here but I prefer his other technique of memorizing personal stories/monologues. I just think it's more useful to memorize sentences having to do with one's own life (family, hobbies, travel etc...) than sentences having to do with random YT lang videos. The vid does add the listening component which is valuable.
3. The thing that makes Cam's techniques work for him is his dedication, the hours he puts into them... but make no mistake, this rote memorization shit is PAINFUL ( this is why lang learners search for less painful techniques such as comprehensible input & immersion). It will take a lot of motivation & focus to make this work.
4. I can see myself memorizing a couple of short personal monologues or conversation scripts (ala Moses McCormick), but not this long ass video memorization. This is a little crazy. lolol
Thanks for the vid!
I have been waiting for your videos man keep up the good work
I'm only 2 months into learning a language, so I'm gonna try this method. If i see drastic results you better believe I'm gonna make a video and credit tf out of you lol this seems like a super effective method! Thanks 😊
How is it going so far? 👀
Please update us 😂
For a fun challenge you could also try to learn an italian dialect and see the differences between italian and maybe venetian
Definitely going to give this a try!
I’m glad to see you’re ok. Your first vids I saw were so inspiring. Then you disappeared! Very interesting series for the Italian journey and I can’t wait to see the rest.
This is so interesting! Would be really interested in how you maintain fluency, do you still do exercises in French? How often? Is it easy to forget everything?
Hi there, your experiments are great, i am looking forward to the results. You also need to consider the fact that spanish french and italian belong to the same family and therefore it is so much easier to learn one of the if you already know one or two of them. I propose to try this approach with a language that belong to another family of language to see if it really works. You may choose german or swedish or what ever. I love your videos, thanks a lot for sharing them, i am very curious to try out that 5min speaking technique of yours with german, i can read books but my speaking skills in german sucks and i realised that i cannot go further without actively recalling words and phrases , thus speaking lol
Have you tried it with German yet? :)
Where’d you go ?
How long till the verb conjugation video !??? we're ready

two years ago i learnt english almost by accident, I used to watch too much tiktoks lol this shit works, you don't have to learn grammar that much like in school
Great job man.
If you need an Italian native to practice, contact me.
Amazing! This method is similar to how professional classical musicians learn a difficult piece by heart
Not just classical. Aussie guitar player said, it took him a month to nail down a 10 second section of the OG's music as he prepared to play it as a tribute. A month for 10 seconds!!! Let that dedication sink in for all budding musicians, language learners et al.
Ho guardato questo video adesso è voglio ringraziarti di cuore perche non capiva come era possibile potere capire tutto ciò che sento ma non essere capace di parlare bene, grazie Cameron!
When's the next video man??
Very grateful that you've taken the time to break down these steps. I'm using them to learn Esperanto. Not as much source material around, but many people produce vlogs and I have come across a whole documentary in the language!

I needed this! Thank you 😭😭😭

Y'all i think he burned out. The thing is, i really think he's for real and that he really does learn these languages the way he describes, teaches, and documents it. Just that, doing it the way he does simply isn't sustainable. If he has a full time job, what he's doing is going to put a strain on so many aspects of his life: mental health, physical health, and financial stability. Not everyone can risk their day jobs on a UA-cam career, or put in 8hours of study time on top of a job.
Also, learning languages the way he does is so, so intense. People generally need 2-4 years on average to learn a new language and achieve fluency WITH FORMAL CLASSES. Imagine shoehorning all that knowledge in 1-2 months. That's terrifyingly insane.
I'm actually SO GLAD he's taking a break. Doing it like this seems like it makes you forget to be kind to yourself, setting a precedent that every attempt at learning must be achieved under extremely high criterias.
This just HAS to be stressful.
Cameron, if you see this, I'm glad you're taking a breather. Take all the time you need. I've learned so much from you already. Be kind to yourself.
I'm currently trying to do the same in spanish, and can confirm it's really intence. I'm getting some success, but yet I go really slow, much slower than he does (did), it's really frustrating.
he quit his job for youtube at the time
I wish he would upload again😔
you are awasome bro!!!
Hi! New subscriber here. I really admire you for your commitment learning my native language, your doing an amazing job!
I would like to try your method to polish my Turkish, I was wondering about those extra words you added to the vocab of the video...maybe I'm asking for too much but could you tell us which one you learned? I have a vague idea but I'm not very sure about the ones you chose to learn. Thank you in advance! 😊
When you do these challenges, have you thought about live-streaming each day to show what they look like real time? Could be a cool idea
Thank you for your work! I'm very glad seeing your progress :) Don't stop! You inspire me learn English... Could you tell me, do you planing learn Russian (if it is not secret)?
I've watched your videos since you were learning French. Me dejas asombrado, con cada idioma nuevo que aprendes tus técnicas de aprendizaje del idioma mejoran. I know a little bit of English, well actually I can understand when people speak but my speaking isn't good, I don't practice it. Me gustaría aplicar este método con el frances, italiano y portugués, pero me pregunto si lo podre aplicar con el chino o coreano?
Where are you bro? Comeback
Where is he? Why he is not posting? It's been a year already.
Pazzesco. Miglioramento incredibile. Complimenti da un Italiano
from an italian your doing great if I can say one thing tho is that I think your spanish as affected the pronounciation of the world "forte" 13:25 because I heard it as "fUorte" in the first video too
Yes your method is correct. We learn traditional arabic book through memorizing sentences and repeat it 5-10 times a day. Fortunately we didn't practice much as for your suggestion OUTPUT. We understand what other people are saying but we stutter as when we replying to them
Veramente molto bravo, complimenti. I video che hai pubblicato finora, però, si basano sul parlare l'italiano. Che cosa succede se un italiano ti inizia a fare domande? Riusciresti a capire una conversazione tra italiani?
Sarei curioso di scoprire che metodo applichi per imparare a capire l'Italiano. Grazie
