Tip for everyone learning a language: No matter how many "how to learn a language" videos you have watched, language learning still requires hard work.

I guess youtube decided that after 7 years, it‘s time for us to learn a new language

私は小学生の時に、大好きなミュージシャンと話せるようになりたくて英語の勉強を始めました。 その時の先生が正に「外国語の親」と言える方で私はどんどん上達し、直ぐに英語が話せるようになりました。 敢えてこのコメント欄を見る日本人のために、日本語でコメントしました！

I listened to this lecture almost ten years ago and today I again listen to it and get the point of what he was making us understand. very effective lecture for students who want to learn a second language.

You know teacher is passionate about his topic when it looks like he’s gonna pass out at any second due to lack of oxygen

He forgot one main thing. You should begin to THINK in the language you want to learn. In the process of thinking, which is essentially talking to yourself in your head, use the language you want to learn to express your thoughts. That is very important! When you want to do small talk with somebody in the language you want to learn, think beforehand what you will say, how and why. I found that very useful. I could quickly learn the phrases I needed to but being able to improvise (which small talk actually is) is much more challenging. If you think in your native language and try to simultaneously translate to the foreign language a story, you quickly run into big trouble. That is why you have to learn to think in the foreign language. Then you can become fluent. At least these are my 2 cents...

i have spent 3 years for learning English, i came a cross this video when i was beginner but couldnt understand it and just skip it. And now i am almost fluent and learning Mandaring now and suddenly i came a cross this again now i 100% what he is saying. It really makes sense what he saying

Arabic is my first language and now I decide to learn English , actually when I was in elementary school I used to listen to English songs with lyrics and with the subtitle of my tongue language I’ve been doing this for fun or as a hobby because I enjoy singing then my English got better and better and I gained a lot of vocabulary because of this , now I can understand most of the conversation because my vocabulary has become wider and I have taken learning English seriously I also decided to learn Korean with English but I struggle with Korean a little , as it is the beginning , I love learning languages , I discovered that it is one of my hobbies, especially since I love learning about the cultures of those languages .

Thank you Chris. To be honest this is the one video that has crowned my persistence with learning a new language over the years. Just about the time I was beginning to speak the language in real life (not just typing and listening to it), I found this video and all you said is exactly what I experienced. Much appreciated Mr. Lonsdale.

I have experimented it. I am in India for 6 months now. I speak Hindi with the natives and we underatand each other. The secret is passion and consistency!

My native language is Arabic, I can speak English and German and now I learn Chinese! After that I am going to learn Russian! Best of luck to all who learn languages.

My father is linguistic proffesor and every time he says : if you want to learn any language , your tongue has to touch to the native speakers tongue ...he meant get a partner and you will learn it quickly

7 action points Listen a lot : 12:00 Understand meaning before word: 12:50 Start mixing: 13:35 Focus on the core : 14:01 Get a language parent : 15:10 Copy the face : 16:40 Direct connect: 17:10

Omg these are all so true! I experienced in first ✋. I'm from a Latin base country. By age 23 I moved to an English speaking country. I had studied at school English, totalling 8 years. I assume I knew English. Never practise speaking or listening, just grammar, exams in school. I was unable to understand anyone! But... By month 3 of having to 1) use & listen the language everyday (noone spoke my language) and 2) having a reason to use it (I was studying my degree in engineering in English too). 3) my face muscles used to hurt so much by the end of the day. But then....I one night at a party I realised suddenly I understood people's conversations around me. In a natural way, almost without paying attention. It was a damn lonely learning experience for or a few months but my god it was so worth it!!! I can't tell you in words the feeling of exhilaration when the brain starts making full sense of a new language. I wasn't fluent by month 3 but I made a huge leap that accelerated my learning thereafter.

*********5 Principles********** 1) Focus on language content that is relevant to you. (7:59) 2) Use your new language as tool to communicate from day 1. (8:50) 3) When you first understand the message your will unconsciously acquire the language. (9:35) 4) It's physiological training. (speak, listen) (10:28) 5) Physiological state matters. (You're having fun, you're curious, relaxed) (11:37) ************Actions you should take to learn a language******** 1) Listen a lot. (12:21) 2) Focus on getting the meaning first. (Learn by body language etc, patterns you already know). (12:43) 3) Start mixing. (13:28) 4) Focus on the core (Learn 1000 most used words, go for 3000 for pro level) (13:57) 5) Get a language parent. (15:20) 6) Copy the face. (16:29) 7) Direct connect to mental images. (connect sounds, images, feeling with words) (17:12) 8) Thumbs up? so others can see this.

I believe this! My first language is not English, but I learned it faster than my peers. Not because school taught me well, but because I interacted and spoke with natives! I’m sure I reached good fluency within 6 months, my memory isn’t too good as I was really young. (Around 7-9)

hey .. I was here for 2 years ago to learn English and i got a new job offer after achieving fluency in English but i am here again to get motivated as I learn German now so i just wanted to say guys it really happens and we can all do it just keep trying and learning 🥰

Okay people, here is a long list of methods I've used to learn any new language. I hope this helps! -text/talk to any chatbot in target language(also helps if you're shy to talk to ppl) -Watch UKpostsrs in target language -read in target language(books, children stories, news, poetry, quotes) -listen to music in target language -have conversation with yourself in target language -change phone language -watch cartoons in target language -watch tv series/ movies in target language -write stories in target language -write songs/poetry in target language -watch podcast in target language -think in target language -pretend to be the first humans to speak language (E.g. look at the clouds and pretend you gave it the name) -play games in target language -associated words with feelings -associate words with pictures in your head -watch daily conversations in target language on youtube -listen to songs in target language -apply target language to hobbies/interests(e.g workout videos in french, guided meditation in Spanish, art DIY with German instructions) -write journal in target language -use analogies -find interview/get to know me questions and answer in target language -exercise to videos in target language -watch tutorial videos of any kind in target language -use captions in target language if available. Good luck!!!

既に誰かが書いているかもしれないけれど、日本人向けに・・・ ５つの原則 07:59= #1 自分の関連する言語の部分に集中する（学習ツールを使いこなす）。 08:49= #2 初日から言葉を使ってコミュニケーションをとる。 09:37= #3 メッセージを前もって理解していると、無意識に言葉が身につく。 10:31= #4 肉体的トレーニング（顔にある43の筋肉を使って他人が聞き取れる発音を作り出すこと）。 11:45= #5 外国語を学ぶ時は リラックスしている状態が重要である。 ７つの実践 12:22= #1 たくさん聞くこと。 12:43= #2 言葉の前にまず意味を知ること。 13:31= #3 子供のように（動詞、形容詞、名詞をランダムに）単語を組み合わせること。 13:58= #4 頻繁に使われる部分にこだわる（1000語は日常のやりとりの8割で使われている）。 15:22= #5 外国語の先生（練習・添削家庭教師）を見つける。 16:29= #6 発音時のジェスチャーを真似る。 17:13= #7 言葉を元からある自分の頭の中のイメージに関連づける（直結）。

I found this talk to be very inspirational- I have been making excuses to myself for so many years as to why I can’t learn. And now I have found the answer to help with achieving my goal. Language learning for me has to be relevant, a natural process rather than heavy duty grammar books. My brain just shuts off once the rule books come out.

One of the most informative and practical talk. I was very tens to learn English and my mistake is to first learn Grammer and then write or talk it. But now , i know how to learn it. Thank you so much sir .... Its very very beneficial.

I love how he was almost out breath, shows he was passionate about sharing his message

This is one of the rare language videos that are not pure babbling and you can actually take something out of it. Great

To learn English ,guys, you should only do one thing. you should practice. Yaeh practice try to go back in time and imagine yourself as a baby. How could you learn your mother language? By listening, right Listening and trying to speak. try and make mistakes. it's fine, But in the end i promise you. you will do it

I learned 1000 words in German in 3 months, but since I'm a perfectionist I've struggled to speak, because I'm scared it won't be perferct. This video inspired me to JUST DO IT. "It Doesn't have to be perfect; it just has to work!"

1.5 years ago I knew the base of English and in this time I've made real progress. I can understand a lot of what I hear. I'm extremely upset with my speaking only but I strongly believe to improve it! Thank you for this video.

I want to admit that this is the most interesting and comprehensive talk of all the TED talks I have ever watched.

I'm 17 and i learn english by myself.. I understand everrything in this video, i'm so proud of me.

From my experience, I can tell that he's absolutely right. I'm from Spain and I'm 16 years old, almost 17. I've been studying English since I was 3 years old at school, but it wasn't until almost two years ago when I became better at it unconsciously. I started watching videos and series in English, I read everyday in English many posts on Twitter and I was having fun with it. Nowadays, while my classmates are extremely struggling with it because they only study with books in class, I don't need to open a book because I've interiorized the grammar without noticing it, and also a lot of vocabulary. And that's the important and better part of language learning, just having fun while doing it. Now I'm applying the same tips in my journey studying french, which I´ve been studying for 5 years but I'm still in a very basic level, and Korean. Sorry for this long message but I wish you all a happy language learning!!

This appeared in my feed when I have almost exactly 6 months before I study abroad. Perfect

I'm so grateful to lessons about how to learn any language effectively. To be honest, I'm see this several tips in somewhere and I applied maximally but at the moment I have just recognized that. This things make me feel fascinating and unbelievable. Your hypothesis are truly persuade me. Moverover, you also referd to my country which I very proud of it. See you a journey in Vietnam. Thanks a lot!

Just dive in that language: speak to people, read their books, watch their movies. Go all in.

At school in Argentina we have english classes twice a week for 18 years. All the way from kindergarten to high school. Students leave high school with a very mediocre level. We are told we need to sit for the international exams, the Cambridge ones. The most popular one is the FCE (First Certificate Exam). We are told this is a MUST if you want to have a successful career no matter your field of expertise. I sat for that test. I got a 98 out of 100. And I learnt to speak english just like a baby does, by listening and repeating. My tool? UKposts. Simple as that. My friends who pay attention in english classes didn't get higher than 70, some didn't even pass the test. The way languages are taught at school is counter-intuitive and very stupid. You will never speak a language better than you speak your native tongue. We must ask ourselves; how did we learn our native tongue? and THEN try to replicate that when attempting to learn a new language.

few days ago i decided to focus more on english, on tuesdays i have a task to write some comments in english, so here i am. i wish you a lot of joy watching this show

When I had been to Abroad for studying second language, even though I went to language school, just chatting with native speakers is the most effective way to be good speaker. And somehow our brain never forget the new word that I've heard only once. It's amazing how our brain is good at processing and stocking new word unconsciously.

I am fluent in 5 languages including some of the toughest ones like Mandarin, German , Japanese and currently picking up Spanish so I can tell you that these are absolutely true.

i like how he's really calm and suddenly REALLY TALKING HARSHLY AND LOUDLY

I'm 100% onboard with this. Cause I'm one of those people who learned English for 6 months

I'm a native Turkish speaker, I understood everything you said easily and I gained confidence. Thank you very much for all these invaluable suggestions, I'll try to use them to learn German

I love how this guy is getting more and more excited as the talk progress.

I've learned for one year and three months for myself and I think that I learn enough to speak with other people, I don't speak or write perfect but I read and heard and I understand very well. I started to learn German now and I think soon I could speak in this language too

i watch this video at 2022, the video was uploaded 8 years ago. and now i just want to say thanks to Ted and Chris Lonsdale. this video make big impact in my journey to get second language. Thanks again

I'm so glad I could understand 99% of what he said even though my mother tongue is not the english. And I've learned by my self :)

Why don't we all learn a different language and come back in 6 months to hold a conversation in the comments?

I speak Arabic French English and Deutsch fluently and I'm learning Turkish now 🙏😊

one of the best talks on language learning Ive heard so far

I speak and write English, Dutch, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, German and Catalan. Except for Dutch, wich I learned in 7 months, I never went to school to learn any of the other languages. First thing you need to have in mind is: "If any other person in the world, native or not, can speak this or that language, I can do it too." People call it determination.

I just found my birth family after 19 years after we were separated, the only thing is Dad still isn't that fluent in English after being in the US for 20 ish years. So I am going to try to speed run learning basic Spanish so we can somewhat talk to each other. Wish me luck and see you in 6 months!

Wow this video is posted 8 years ago and this guy's talk still so much useful He is just amazing!

I'm Vietnamese. Thank you very much. Now i'm 58, i learn every thing, every day because of retired man have nothing else to do.

A woman struggled with Dutch, then she came across the principles, she applied these and she learnt Portuguese!

Very inspiring talk! We live in a great time that we can listen such a precious talk from anywhere in the world for free.

This is a really useful video for beginners to learn English like me. I try to apply these lessons to improve my English. Thank you so much for the lessons you shared.

I love seeing how so many people have a desire to learn another language, how many already know multiple languages and those who are willing to help each other. This is what you call a beautiful comment thread that actually feels good to read.

5 principles & 7 actions. 2 things don't matter: Talent, Immersion per se. ................. 5 principles of fast language acquisition: (1). Attention, meaning, relevance, memory (all are interconnected in very very important ways) - information that helps survival has relevance - information that helps achieve personal goals has relevance. So, the principle 1: focus on language content that is relevant to you. (2). Principle 2: Use your new language as a tool to communicate from day one. Like children do. (3). When you first understand the message, you will unconsciously acquire the language. Comprehension is the key. If you don't understand it your brain filters it out. You don't learn it. (4). Speaking. It takes muscle. Proper coordination is important. So start speaking. (5). Be happy, stress free. Don't go for accuracy in the beginning. ......................................... 7 actions of fast language learning: (1). Listen a lot Listen to tons and tons of the language. Brain soaking language. Your brain recognises the pattern of the language. (2). Focus on getting the meaning first. Even before the words. Use body language. (3). Start mixing. If you know 10 verbs, 10 nouns, 10 adjectives, you can make 1000 possible phrases. Language is a communicative process. What a baby does? Broken phrases. But they make the point across. Get creative. Have fun with it. (4). Focus on the core. Every language has high frequency content. Focus on high frequency contents of the language. (5). Get a language parent who understand your broken phrases and doesn't correct you. (6). Copy the face. Expressions. (7). Make image inside your mind. Connecting the mental images in a meaningful way. ................................................................

Highly apprecitate your advice and TEDx Talks for sharing this video. Based on the advice LISTEN A LOT, I just followed and my listening skill has been improving. I have boosted my English rather than before and have more motivation to learn and improve more. And the first time I fall in love with this language. Once again, thank you so much! Very meaningful for a learner like me.

I have learned 20% from this guy and 80% from the analysis of those who have commented.

As a qualified linguist, English language teacher, and student of Korean, my advice is this: 1.Sure, follow this guys advice. They are good ideas. 2.Don't believe you can learn in 6 months, you will set yourself up for disapointment. 3. Old fashioned study of grammar points and vocab lists out of a textbook can be boring, but will accelerate your learning in a way these other methods can't. You should use every method available.

Thank you. I didn't know this rules, but on the same way I learned czech language and really I had a great result for me after 6 months. Now I'll use this rules for improving my English. And I'll recommend this video for everyone

Hey, my native language is Spanish, when I was 8 years I went to the US 3 months, I went to a school I was more a listener. I didn't talk with the other kids because, I only knew how to say hello, bye, some colors and numbers, I watched videos in English, I heard people talking in english everyday, without noticing it, I was able to understand, I remember telling my mom "Mom! I had a conversation with a girl, I asked her what was her favorite color" Yes, it was very very simple, but for me and my mom wasn't. I learned English literally by myself, no one translated for me. The last year I improved a lot, good luck to everyone! If you want to learn a language, you have to be motivated, you have to take it seriously, try listening songs in that language, watch videos in that language, even if you don't understand, that will help you. Right now I'm learning Japanese, Korean and French. I will comeback in 6 months! Hi! I forgot to come, sorry, I have been learning a lot, I’m also in school since October so I don’t have too much time to progress, it has been a little bit difficult, specially grammar, but so far, I progressed a lot, if we talk about Korean, I can understand a lot now. Don’t give up! You can do it! :)

This was one of my main motivators when I started with Italian few years ago (I am Czech, father of 3 kids, I have a full time job). I consider it a great speech, I tried those techniques and I’d say it does work, maybe not in 6 months, but a year, but that corresponds only to your level of motivation. Thanks Chris ❤🫶

I have been learning korean for almost 2 years now and i still havent been able to speak fluenty. Now i am going to put more efforts. Wish me luck

we're all gonna come out of quarantine as polyglots

Excellent point, Chris Lonsdale: EVERYBODY can learn a foreign language in a reasonable period of time. The only question is: Do you really want to learn a new language? Is the motivation behind it your's or is it your boss'es? If the motivation behind language learning is not coming from you, then, my dear friend, you will never learn this language you're struggling to learn.

I have learned six languages, and now I’m learning the seventh this time by myself (Finnish language), and he is right. These are neuropsychological principles that can help you learning anything you want… of course you also need a reliable source of information, like a good language book with the grammar rules (unfortunately without grammar you can’t do anything).

i am chinese prepareing IELTS...thanks for your lecture....i learned a lot...language is a tool to help people communicate....to make people understand each other....no need to be 100％ accurate

if he does this same lecture in 3 other languages, then i'll start taking actions he told.

This video has been sitting in my Watch Later Playlist for about 6 months now.

I'm from Vietnam, I was really happy because I hear you mentioned my country in your presentation

谢谢你老师。What he said is truly effective and efficient. I uses his teachings to learn Mandarin, Korean and Japanese. Huge thank you to him.

1、自分に関わる言葉に注目すること 2、最初からその言語をコミュニケーシ ョンの道具とすること 3、先に言葉の意味を理解すること 4、表情筋が痛くなるぐらい話すこと 5、心を落ち着かせ、心が楽しく好奇心を持てるような状態のときに学ぶこと 実践1、たくさんきけ！ 実践2、意味を知ってから言語知れ 実践3、伝わらないことを恐れず、 言葉を組み合わせよう 実践4、核となる部分に注目し、学ぶ上で役立つものを身につけよう 実践5、言語の親を持ち、言語を安心して理解できる環境を持とう 実践6、顔の動かし方を知ろう 実践7、その単語を自分の中のイメージと結びつけよう

As a french, I totally agree with a lot of these statements. When you have something that interests you in another langage, it forces you to learn, to make an effort, and because you enjoy what you read or hear, it does'nt seem hard to you. Sometimes it's like a little game, you have some lego blocks, and with them you have to build something that stands.

Wow, what a amazing explanation of how to learn a second language! So useful, and so understandable! Realy realy enjoy that!
