- Hello Socratica Friends! We're here to help you be a Great Student. How to Learn a Foreign Language is one of our favourite subjects. Our host Liliana speaks English, Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian - and she’s agreed to share some of her top tips for learning a second language. We discuss the importance of pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, and include tips for conquering each of these important areas.
We also try out an online language learning site, Lingoda. This is a great way to be able to learn using immersion without having to travel to another country! Immersion is when you ONLY speak your new language, without any English interruptions.
Don't forget - these tips and tricks also work if you are learning English as a Second Language! ESL students and people studying for the TOEFL should also get a lot from this topic.

This woman is such a legend! My goodness. One minute she's teaching me Abstract Algebra, next, she's teaching me how to learn foreign languages. Such an intelligent and powerful mind. Thank you, thank you, thank you Liliana.
Of course she doesnt write all the content, she is more like a presenter!
Impressive presenter, though. I cannot hear even a trace of foreign accent in her English.
And she 's also a pretty good actress
Cara, o inglês dela é IMPRESSIONANTE
Sim, ela praticamente não tem sotaque
o português também
@@lucasfelipe-ze5sy Primeira lingua que ela aprendeu foi o inglês,foi alfabetizada no mesmo, só depois que aprendeu português,ela não nasceu no Brasil
@@alyssonpereira898 Como não? ela fazia malhação na globo lá no começo dos anos 2000
@@canon61837 O que tem a ver ela ter feito malhação nos anos 2000? procura no Google a história dela
Watching the other videos Liliana has taught, she was so fluent and intelligent speaking in English, I had no idea that English wasn't her first language. I am amazed that she has such a grasp of the vocabulary. Regarding a new language coming from someone as talented as she, I take as gospel. Thx
I am looking forward to some intros for different foreign language productions from Socratica. Thx
lol she lives in US dude and English is almost the easiest language
Dude, you need to put a little more time on your English.
She started to learn english with just 5 years old . Probably tiny years after started to learn portuguese and spanish.
well, as she is (or was) an actress in Brazil, I guess most of her life she spent speaking portuguese.
Muito obrigado a todos do Socrática, especialmente para você, Liliana, você é encantadora.
Thank you very much to all of you of Socratica, specially to you, Liliana, you are blessing.
When she said "bom dia" ("9:37") I thought I was listening to a Portuguese native speaker
you are! :D
That's amazing, please keep doing the great things that you are doing, I found this channel today and I love it, I will share it with my friends.
We're so glad you've found us! Thanks so much for sharing our channel - that really helps us grow! :D

So are you.❤️
@@ML7WL I like her brain alot ..this a big news to me ..oh my god 😮😮
She's 44 years old
@@creativegravedigger7289 44 is pretty young.
Liliana, tu és um hino de mulher. Obrigada por esse vídeo maravilhoso, viu? Tô na minha caminhada pra ficar fluente em inglês e tbm comecei a aprender japonês recentemente. Vou tentar aplicar essas dicas 😚
Another reason for learning phrases instead of individual words: The usage of one word can be different in different language. For example, in English we say "on time", even if we know the word for "on" and for "time" in French, we can't say "sur temps", because it's "à l'heure", and Francophones can't use "at the hour" to represent "on time", because it's different.
Such an important point! We have better luck translating ideas, rather than words. How would you convey this idea, which requires several words, or sometimes even a whole sentence or two, into the target language.
Thanks for your interesting comment!
In Chinese languages, four-characters can represent a whole story. That is to say, it would be even better if one learns the culture and if possible, the etymology as well. You are right, immersion is essential, is key, but choosing the right type of immersion I guess is also important. In order to truly understand the whole meaning of one language, one should also visit the country. This has a couple more advantages compared to the economical and convenient online immersion (especially for those distinct languages you mentioned earlier): 1. Problem solving and learning how to improvise with the language, since you remember your mistakes through authentic life experience and you will find it easier to remember a phrase or a word because you've subconsciously associated them with your previous mistakes; 2. Cultural understanding - For understanding why people say stuff like this or like that or why they have words that cannot be found in your native language (e.g. Ireland has been a pretty religious country, even the phrase in Irish for "hello" is religious, "Dia dhuit", which literally means "God be with you"); 3. It can be extremely rewarding because you realise how much people respect you for learning their languages, especially if the languages are obscure.
Culture plays a critical role in a natural language and cannot be overlooked.
My Latin professor thought that Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian and French were one language and English his second language and German, Swedish, Dutch, Norsk , Dansk his third language. What a nut job!
hehehe WOW!
We're picturing him going to France and speaking Spanish. :)
As a language professor they SHOULD know the differences between a dialect and a language!
I have seen similarities with other languages, such as Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and Latin. The same with Russian and Greek. Also similarities with Dutch and German. I see English derived from here and there too. But similarities is where it ends. He sounds to be a bit off.
He sounds like a nut job no doubt, but honestly whoever it was that interviewed him and hired him to be a fucking professor of linguistics is almost more worrisome. Goddamn

my native language is Spanish, and I'm currently studying Mechanical Engineering in California
2:45 this was actually an exact concept and part in my school textbook lol
i think the approach to language learning in schools has transformed greatly over the past few years and decades
I learn English with socratica! This channel helps me a lot. I can speak English fluently but I understand everything she said.
Thank you for the frequency dictionary idea. It is not the first time i heard of that but DAMN, it is so easy to forget about it.
I always get amazed when i watch Lilana in her videos. She's just too good. hehe I wonder if one day i'll get to be as good as her in english. (Tudo de bom pra ti, ótimo trabalho)
buenísimo tu video!!!
excelentes consejos, mil gracias!!
She is wonderful. You have a beautiful way of presenting information. It is both enjoyable and informative. So refreshing. Thanks for posting!
Liliana ,you are the best she makes everything so simple. Love you
This channel is a gem.
I'm from Madagascar, I speak french and my native language and I'm learning english by watching videos in english. I love english and your videos are precious to me. Thank you very much for the tips!! I guess I'll have to move to america :) Keep doing the great work guys!!
Great Video

Will mich nochmals bedanken für die sensationelle Arbeit die
ihr auf eurem Kanal leistet. Bin schon lange dabei.
Macht weiter so!
Gruss David
amazing thanks for the class, I do appreciated it !
This advice is amazing. Thankyou!!!!!
Great summary of solid tips - agreed with all of this, thanks:)
I have studied Spanish and now Russian. I lived on Okinawa for just over 2 years and learned a little Japanese. But seriously applying myself to Russian as it is a part of my heritage. I will probably visit or revisit other language of my bloodline along the way, but one at a time is good for now. Thanks for the video.
Socratica Friends, was school easy for you...until suddenly it wasn't? We wrote this book for you.

Liliana, What I do actually, is listen, reading subtitles and lips reading. your voice is good for learning AE. you have a very clear understandable voice 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Liliana you're awesome doing this. For sure you have experience in a native environment.
E sim, gente, ELA É BRASILEIRA, atriz, com trabalhaos na Record e na Globo!
Thank you very much for your beautiful advice. I am also a lover of reading, especially in computer science, mathematics, calculus, science: Physics, Chemistry, etc. It would be good if you put subtitles in Spanish to all your videos since not everyone in South America or Spanish-speaking speaks or knows English well.
Thanks again for your great contribution.
Como é bom ouvir a voz desse anjo. torna um assunto que normalmente é tedioso super interessante.
So amazing learning methods. It reminds me the things i learned in my graduate school.
This is very helpful video , I am going to share it on my twitter. Thanks !
Very nice video. You and your team are doing a great job. Thank you.
This is so helpful! Thank You!
Caramba, agora entendi como ela fazia os vídeos em português, eu jurava que era uma dublagem muito bem feita, mas é ela mesma quem faz! Estou impressionado kkkkkk vou me inscrever aqui tbm, e parabéns pelo trabalho c:
Ela é meio brasileira, ela já fez novela na globo e malhação nos anos 2000
ela é a Luna da Novela Alma gêmea! adoro!
Gracias por tus consejos que los tendré en cuenta. Saludos.
from brazilian soap operas to youtube! keep up the good work, liliana.
Questo canale è meraviglioso! Mi aiuta a migliorare il mio inglese e fornisce un sacco di contenuti utilissimi!
Thank you for your video that explain the groups.
This is exactly what I was looking for! I can't sit and read a textbook. It comes easier when there is an interaction when I am learning a new language because I remember things easier visually and relating it later with what they are saying.
I'll start with watching that English grammar video you mentioned (bcuz i do suck at it) and after getting those common words in simple sentences. Thank You!
And you look beautiful
We're so happy to hear this video resonated with you! It's so important to keep trying new techniques to find what works for you - sometimes it's a combination of lots of different approaches!
Happy Learning! :D
I find making lists of words and phrases I use on a day to day basis and asking native speakers to translate them helps.
Excellent and interesting your video. Thanks you very much for sharing this great tips.
Wow...amazing...Keep up the good work!!!
Thanks a lot, ur video is very helpful 😊 Currently I am learning Spanish and it's gonna help me a lot
Wow,its amazing that she's multi-lingual.Thanks!
You are a great speaker, I love you speach, some how it makes me watch the video till end...
Whoa this video was great. I’ve been feeling really disheartened because of my Japanese learning lately and this really boosted my spirts!
Wow... your english is close to perfection 👏👏👏👏👏
She is not a native speaker of English?
@@katsu-jc5cp She is brazilian
Thanks, Caio. It's very tempting to imagine that she was raised in an English speaking environment. If she started learning English in a classroom situation first and came to this level with her effort, she is amazing. I think there is so much to learn from her if she is a non-native speaker of English and speaks like that.
Best tips for learning a new language.
My mother tongue is Bengali but i wanna be a fluet speaker of English.
Socratica is a great platform to be a good student. As a Bangladeshi i found this channel very helpful than any other English channel to learn something new.
We'd love to hear more about how you're learning another language! It's such hard work but so worth it. 💜🦉
Genteee, amo ouvir ela falando Inglês.
Thank you so much.
I can attest to the superiority of learning phrases over single words. I'm an English speaking Lutheran. Years into my German studies, I started memorizing hymns and parts of the catechism. It made such a difference, I wish I'd started doing that in high school.
In the time 9:37 is like a magical for me. Great explanation, great video.
Few people know about a pragmatic, efficient way to learn a new language. Those who do, advance in learning steadily and according to their schedule. While most people find themselves learning a new language as a necessity, many others do it because it is fun. It feels more sophisticated to know more than one language. It can be highly beneficial in your life over the long run. However, it is not an easy task to learn a new language no matter whether it is for fun or out of necessity. You've probably seen friends or acquaintances talk about wanting to learn a foreign language, then enthusiastically purchasing products, books, and maybe even enrolling into a course or program, only to ultimately see the reality of the fact that they have failed in their pursuit of learning another language. According to The Guardian, the ICM survey, which questioned 1,001 young people aged 14-24 from across the UK in June this year, paints a picture of a generation perhaps surprisingly open to the prospect of language learning, but often deeply lacking in the confidence of their ability to put their language studies into practice. Three in ten who chose not to study a language at GCSE or A-level say language learning is challenging, with almost half of all those questioned regarding grammar as difficult to learn and 40% seeing memorizing vocabulary as hard work. The research had indicated that A-level languages are perceived as being harder than other subjects and their content is demotivating. Sitting down with a language textbook and trying to teach yourself a new language is not only boring, it takes an inordinate amount of time. It can take months to capture the basics of a particular language. Fluency comes far later. Often, we don’t have the luxury of spending months learning a language. For example, those people who are migrating or taking up a job abroad.
However as an individual learner or with a tutor, the student can cut down the time it takes him/her to master the basics of a new language. There are methods that can be used to reduce the time it takes.
Main Essentials of Learning a New Language - They distinguish three main essentials associated with learning a new language; namely the vocabulary, basic sentence elements / patterns, and grammar rules. Vocabulary - the most basic step towards learning a new language is to learn its words. Familiarity with the words will lead you to form sentences. Sentence Patterns and Elements - this has to do with how you ask and answer questions. Making coherent sentences is the way to make someone understand what you are saying. The ability will also help you understand what others are saying and how you might respond. Grammar Rules - Each language has certain rules that need to be followed.
There is a special type of media developed for the first and second component - a bilingual graded book. Bilingual graded books are also called bilingual graded readers. They offer a parallel translation that allows the user to learn a new language in less time. With the translation on the same page, learners can effortlessly learn what any unfamiliar words mean. They can quickly pick up new vocabulary and phrases that are used over and over in texts of bilingual graded books. When they read a graded bilingual reader, they can pick up chunks of language and vocabulary that they can use in conversation and other real-world applications. It also significantly reduces the amount of time it takes to become conversational in a new language. As you read a bilingual reader, your brain begins to remember words and phrases simply because you are exposed to them several times. You don’t even realize, until you have to recall what you’ve learned, that you have already learned the new words and phrases. Listen to the audio tracks that should always accompany a bilingual graded book to learn how words are said and to improve your overall ability to speak the new language. A good idea is to use the free VLC media player to control the playing speed. You can control the playing speed by decreasing or increasing the speed value on the button of the VLC media player's interface.
Decide what is better for you a paper book or an e-book. Many of the e-readers by Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Kobo have dictionaries pre-loaded on their devices, with options to download additional ones, for free. If you do not have an e-reader, you do not have to buy one, because you can download it as a free app to your phone and use it right away. Writing your own notes, searching or making highlights is ridiculously simple with an e-reader or e-reading app. Anything you do with an e-book is also synced to the cloud, ensuring any change will follow you, no matter what device you are on.
At first search on Google for "bilingual graded books" or "bilingual graded books for beginners". Choose and buy a book on a suitable topic, for example general, business, medical, culinary, dialogues, students, cooking, family, tourists, detective, short story or whatever you like. Read it for about twenty minutes a day. If you do it every day, you will be surprised how much you can learn in a month's time. Try to use the target language after you have learned for a month. If you don't have an opportunity to talk to native speakers at home or at work/study, use your target language in small talk on Skype or another online chat. Search on Google for "free online clean chat rooms" and pick up the one that suits your interests. Two or three minutes of small talk two or three times a week or more often will give you some motivation and encourage you to learn new questions and answers for new dialogues. Compile a list of questions and answers for your dialogues in a target language or find them on Google with keywords "Bilingual graded books dialogues" and try using them.
Don't be afraid of making errors. They are your steps to success. You will spot and correct them sooner or later anyway. They will not be for the rest of your life. Better not to talk at all than to talk incorrectly? Wrong! Start talking as much as you can! Your language will improve every time you talk. A learner who knows only a hundred words and isn't shy of talking will progress more quickly than the one who knows a thousand words but remains silent because he or she is afraid of saying something wrong.
It can usually take you from one to three months to finish a bilingual graded reader at beginner level (A1) and elementary level (A2). The amount of time depends on your previous experience with learning foreign languages and on your personal abilities. At this point you should be able to ask and answer simple questions with the following questioning words: What? Who? Where? When? Which? How many/much? As you improve and become more confident in your ability to use the new language, you can move on to the next reader level and continue your language-learning journey. After using a bilingual graded book for a week or two you are ready to study grammar rules, so buy a good grammar book. A grammar book will satisfy your curiosity about grammar rules awakened by the bilingual graded book. Read the grammar book to find out how you can use your target language more precisely. Follow this order - first read a reading book, then use a grammar book and exercises to make your learning experience uninterrupted.
Language text with a parallel translation has helped many to uncover their potential for learning multiple languages. Whether you are learning a language as a hobby or for a necessary purpose, you will find such books are supportive. Using them is by far more pragmatic, efficient way to learn a new language than a "learn a language in two weeks" program. However you should frequently use the target language by using bilingual graded books with audio tracks, grammar books, chats, internet pages and even songs to maintain your motivation and progress. Remember - twenty minutes a day does the magic!
The Assimil products use parallel text together with excellent recordings of all the target language. Many of the best known polyglots recommend them as a practical and flexible way to get established in a new language. If you don't have the confidence to develop your own materials, an hour a day of Assimil for a few months, coupled with lots of additional reading and listening, is a proven approach that will work for many.
Wow, you obviously have a lot going on and a lot of advice to give. But this wall of text is intimidating on a youtube channel lol. And I love reading. Maybe work on making your writing more concise. Thanks for the write up though
I'm brazilian and your portuguese accent is amazing!!!
Thanks Socratica.
Once I began thinking in my second language German, fluency came quickly. Planning my day was an essential exercise. "At 2 o'clock, I need my red book. After school, father will drive us to the restaurant."
Prepositional phrases are great to master vocally as they pair the usual prepositions to the nouns.
Hexemes, subcategorization, oh my! My German teacher was the most influential in my career as an AI researcher in natural language processing. I still think of her almost daily.
Thank you!
Perfect advice, thank you.
Better advice. Just use google translate.
Excellent video!
Quite simplistic view on how to learn a language.
its really very use full mam for my space research studies
I know 6 languages; Somali, Kiswahili, English, Arabic, JavaScript and Python.
Amazing tips
About the scenarios , I had to make that a few months ago when I got a Job in a call center, as a bilingual agent. My maternal tongue is spanish, and I had to function in english mostly, even when I am an upper intermediate. They gave us a Script, but I designed my own for every situation or service I have to sell. It was such an experience for me, and a trigger for Master my skills.
What a smart way to handle that situation!!
Yo también trabajaba en un centro de llamadas cuando aprendía castellano.
@@diariosdelextranjero Que bien. Es muy estresante porque no dominas el idioma al 100, pero es la unica forma de soltarte hablando en mi caso
6 horas diarias y días a la semana.
I love languages (in general) and language-learning, so... huge thumbs-up. Side-bar, though, on the "Schools have negelected phonics" side-bar. (IMHO) Phonics (in the U.S.) have historically been introduced *way* too early. Whole-word recognition (again, IMHO) should precede *any* thought of introducing phonics, and the associated notion of trying to *analyze* a word in order to say it. Phonics should come as an *expansion* or deep-dive on what one has learned through whole-word recognition. Introducing phonics too early only slows down reading efforts in a new reader.
"What's this?"
"Um... it's a shiny thing..."
"Very good!"
"Um... it has a pointy bits..."
"Good, good!"
"Um... it's a fork..."
"There you go! You assembled your thought!"
"Um... and what was I actually *doing* again?"
SHE IS A GREAT EXPLAINER. THANKS. :)
Thank you .
Você fala português? Que legal! Vídeo muito bom, parabéns! Abraços do Brasil.
sim, ela é atriz. da record.
I personally enjoy her suggestion of developing your own situational materials. Before I started working this way I failed a few times trying to learn with a course book. Looking back, this was because got bored and lost motivation. The internet has opened up new and better ways to learn. I find that working on dialogues that are directly relevant to my own needs and interests, and then activating them immediately with an online conversation partner is much more motivating. And motivation is the key - anyone will succeed if they interact with the language daily for long enough - you just have to find a way to keep going. If you want some very clear and effective guidelines on how to work with situational strategies, I highly recommend Boris Shekhtman's little book "How to Improve Your Foreign Language Immediately". This is an approach he developed teaching Russian to high level US Government officials, journalists etc and has been proven over many years of research at the highly regarded FSI institute. Adapt it to self learning and you'll be miles ahead of the way that most people tackle a language.
Excellent Tips and I would have to say that I can barely remember anyone with the kind of the communication skills that you possess.
Seu jeito de falar em Portuguese é tão lindo!!!
Claro ela é brasileira.
Thank you!!
I'm pretty good at German and Spanish, but I saw how beautiful Budapest is, and unlike other urban parts of Europe it's pretty low in "diversity," so maybe I'd consider living there. However, the Hungarian language is significantly different to English or any of the languages I've attempted.
Aaah, we dream of visiting Budapest one day! One of our friends from grad school married a Hungarian fellow, and she wanted to learn some of his language for when they visited his family. She did say that it was like starting absolutely from scratch, compared to how Spanish and French had a lot of similarities. She was able to learn how to make some very delicious dumplings from her MIL, so I think she got pretty good! :)
Awesome 👏🏻
Thanks a lot 😍😍😍😍
Great and nice
I come back again. Very good
I speak Assamese, Hindi, English and now learning Russian 🤭.. and this video was in my recommendation 🤭❤️ die hard fan of Socratica

So intelligent ..I aspire to work on my self to be like u some day 💓❤❤
Magnificent!
Zdorova!
I'm watching this and my first language is Brazilian Portuguese 😜
I guess I went from basic to advanced level without even noticing, just by surrounding myself with English ( movies, music, novels, tv programs, my own cellphone, podcasts and lots of contents here on TH-cam) 😆
Next goal: Reach fluency and learn Japanese.
I know that the best material to learn Japanese are those in english.
this video rly touched me maybe trying to learn a new language isn't impossible at all. I think i will give another try!!!!! Thx >:)
It's impossible to learn a first language and as for a second forget about it. I just use google translate everytime I have to write something.
Hi, thanks for sharing these amazing tips. My parents are learning English but their native language is Spanish. Is this video available in Spanish?
For those impressed with her amazing English, she's a talented Brazilian actress... So no wonder.
I thought she was from portugal not Brazil. Thanks for letting me know.
no one:
duolingo: TU COMES MANZANAS¿
La donna mangia la mela
Tu sei l'uomo
No one
Duolingo: yo bebo leche
नमस्कार
Wow... you speak so many language.It must feel so great.
in this video i hope i can learn more foreign language especially ENGLISH😍😍😍
I'm fluent in 3 languages (turkish, english and german) but I want to learn a few more! There's no end in learning new things :'D
I think that the natural process of learning and mastering a foreign language is to follow the order of nature.
01- mother tongue is something that happens, communicating before worrying about sound, structure, word order, etc.
02- feel the need to communicate, act and not think about words.
03- when we already have the power to make ourselves heard and receive answers, then it is time to evolve in the culture of communicating in this speaking activity.
I starting to love languages but also I have to know about Python. This is my first video that I saw from you and I wanted to commemt😃😀😀
