Learn Any Language & Improve Your Grammar

[Egon]

The best tool for language learning:

The theory behind it:

This is true, I didn't ever "study" English, yet I'm pretty confident with my speech and grammar to the point I became a translator over time. When I found the JoS I didn't understand English at all except scarce words. Upon immersing and reading over and over I've achieved fluency level, also from watching videos of people speaking natural English, unrelated to language learning at all (Pewdiepie). My younger sister achieved advanced level English even earlier through PC games and media - none of us got good English classes at school (and other people had the same classes but didn't learn any of it).

The truth is I hate methodical schooling (brainrotting), I hate writing, and I hate making charts of whatever nature. I've only felt the urge to write things down like now and translating when I really loved what I was doing. The child pill worked wonders for me and has been the working formula of the Ages, where you absorb and repeat the knowledge because your brain learned to love the process, like a child who is learning how to speak from their parents, and repeat things over and over.

The best way to learn a language is immersing yourself in it. One good method is the natural method, which is not about methodical grammar learning but actually speaking the language. Pimsleur and assimil are great resources.

The Best way to start is the Michel Thomas method ,where they teach you the sentences and words that can help you survive in a Foreign country. 90% of all languages are not even used. Find it on Torrent.

When starting one shouldn't stress on trying to speak it, but receiving input. Your brain will do the work of making up conversations and repeating sentences on its own, as you repeat what you have received input from over time, and attempt to imitate what it sounded like, like in the examples above a child doesn't start with speaking but receiving input then repeating what their parents say.

A person can become fluent in 2 years with this method. One language I'm interested in learning is German and Russian.

I've always been interested in German. I've read of Cuban immigrants stating Russian is far easier to learn than English.

But I always found learning another language as silly. When am I gonna employ or use it. Sheer fact is not to be a downer but our Euro members seem more multi-lingual and learning many things.

I've often wondered why another language. Like I said when am I gonna use it.

Is it a property of enhancing the brain i.e. a language can improve the mind. Frankly with my bilingual in Spanish and English. I criss-cross the words and made me a worse person. I learned Spanish first then English but my main mode of speaking in my mind is English albeit sometimes I throw in Spanish. I guess it helps but often with mixing and changing words around combining them Spenglish basically.

Is it worth the trouble learning another language? Hitler in Dr. Dalton's translation of Mein Kampf stated he'd rather people learn syntax and basic properties rather than waste time deep diving something that is considered useless or unusable in everyday life. I kinda get the thought he simply wanted people to be filled with less things in their head and focus on other subjects.

This is all you need.

Agreed. I started learning German by listening to music and reading stories and books. Still not fluent but have learned a lot in the last couple of months in surprisingly little time spent. Not really useful where I live but I love it and feel drawn to it. It feels more natural to me than learning Chinese like I was in high school (Although my teacher was awesome and we did learn a lot )
