Unused books. Unopened apps. Chaotic schedule. You talking to me Luca? 🤨😁 Discipline over motivation. Needed that, I’m never motivated. Grande video! 👍🏼
Charles' Duhigg's Power of Habit principles are perfect for this: 1. Have very clear what materials you will use (Assimil is amazing, I'd start with that as well). 2. Set a time of the day to do it daily. 3. Have the materials in an obvious, visible place. 4. Do something enjoyable right after as a reward (only if you've done everything you wanted to do). do that for a few weeks and..Boom! Language learning habit created. Anyway, back to my Russian learning...
The issue is that most people overestimate what they can learn in a week or two and underestimate what they can learn in one or two years of consistency (habits and discipline, like you said) Keep up the good content 😄👍
If Tony Robbins were a polyglot ''most people overestimate what they can learn in a week or two and underestimate what they can learn in one or two years of consistency''
Hey everyone! Thanks for all the kind words and comments! You can check out the content of the BDT method and course here: www.lucalampariello.com/master-language-learner/ Happy language learning to you all! :-)
I start my new day by watching your video Luca 😊😎🤣 I’m Vietnamese and my favorite language learning is English. I had learned English since I was 14 years old only, and my goal when I was 17 years old was to be able to communicate with people (in English fluently of course) Until now… I’m glad that I don’t have to turn the translate button or Engsub because I can listen and understand 99% of what you said in your video! I’m a self-learner languages via Duolingo app (English,Chinese and Dutch) and other resources on the Internet. I followed your TH-cam channel since 2015 😊😊😊and so grateful to know there is someone like you who are really passionate in his learning language journey. Thanks for everything Luca!🙏🙏🙏 Wish you all the best and stay safe🍃🌼
The emphasis on avoiding the common problem of de-motivation in learning a new language is spot on. Also finding bilingual texts is most valuable as you suggest. Thank you, Luca.
So I‘m german… and Germany goes crazy atm. All the other EU-countries are doing better during this whole COVID thing. Hopefully Germany comes back on track when you decide to come here finally lol.
Hope everything works out for you. I have been studying abroad in Germany for the past 4 years and It is a great experience and I my German has gotten really great
At the intermediate level, you always feel a sense of inadequacy because one single session does not really improve your level by much. However, if you compund that over a year or two, there's lot of progress to be made.
The Key: Learn every single day, making habits and choosing content according to you level and obviously have fun, We should enjoy the process even if we don't feel motivated, Remember why you began it. You have a new subscriber Luca.
Motivation is unreliable. This. Exactly this. Motivation will vanish one day, especially if you have a setback, which will also happen one day. Luca is totally right. Discipline is needed.
One method I found useful for discipline is not to think. If you don't feel like studying, don't make a decision about whether or not to study. Just count to 10 and then do it. It is a simple trick which I find works for me. It takes the decision out of my hands.
My first thought was - damn, this garden in the background looks like typical Polish garden - then scrolling down to read some comments - "I recorded this video in Poland" xD
You are so right about being ready to learn the language regularly for a long time. I feel like many people give up on languages because they haven't created the habit of learning the languages regularly for a long time.
You are right Luca, I generally don't use an academic approach. Years ago, I remember you used an analogy of learning to ride a bike. It rings true today, and makes total sense. Regarding resources, I have steered away from the mainstream books etc, I just use authentic and engaging stuff, as you said. Cheers
I enjoyed the entire video, it all starts with 🧠. Doing a little things every single on the exact time can create a winning mindest for life.my whole life changed completely.and I'm grateful for that matter, LuCa you're so awesome.
Several months ago I wanted to start learning Chinese but lately what I've mostly doing is watching videos about learning languages: how to start learning a language; the best way to learn a language; how I learned Chinese in 6 months; Mistakes when you learning languages; best ressources to learn a language; how to stay motivated learning languages,... I guess I've watch enough of input about this topic and now I'll get those knowledge in practice. I'm gonna learn Chinese.
2 weeks ago I thought I would pick up Korean to learn then had checked and ordered 3 books. Next week I will enroll in a class :)) hopefully next year I can get a good result . Thanks for your recommend .
Ciao Luca! Grazie per il nuovo video e per i tuoi consigli! I really needed this today. I have been making excuses to not study lately and had to revisit things from the very beginning.
Thanks Lucca….. you couldn’t ask for more….. I‘ m quite disciplined, but don’t cluster and lack the organizational part. I really appreciate your inputs. They make real sense.
You are an incredible mentor and inspiration, Luca. Your videos are always of such a high quality and you are so generous with the top-notch advice you share. I just want to thank you for your great work.
LUCA! You are absolutely my favourite you-tube polyglot. I just love your materials, philosophy on language learning, and you are clearly not misleading anyone, by mention of your being a 'polyglot' that's quite an understatement given your amazing progress. I have also been listening to Zoe at 'zoe languages' and I find much of her advice and insight parallels yours. and she is a serious polyglot who prioritizes quality over quantity of languages. thank you.
@@LucaLampariello PS< I had a question to ask you. I'd like to know and, maybe you made a video about this before - but how many languages could one possibly learn over the course of a life? Is there such a thing as too many, even proficiently? I worry because I may have too many on my 'list' to learn and then I feel so confused...about how to get rid of them or reduce the number, but should it be about the number of languages? Shouldn't it be about keeping what we truly love?
Hi Luca, I'm in America and I'm learning Italian (no plans to be polyglot) and I found a language partner in Italy. We exchange online. I was raving about you to her, I quote your tips etc.... After a few weeks she excitedly told me this: it turns out you coached a friend of hers years back- in Italy! She was surprised as she hadn't heard of you. The friend you coached, had nothing but good things to say about the experience. Funny such a small world once you get into a topic/hobby/profession. This was less than "six degrees of separation," across thousands of miles....
As I often say if someone thinks to much about doing something and is more concerned about the hows and whens : "Just start and think after your session about this stuff" because some people forget with time what their initially plan was. :D In this case it was not figure out the best learning method (and this itself can take a long time) but learning a new language. Grazie per il video.
so good steps! como no tengo mucho tiempo estoy utilizando apps aunque tengo otros recursos mejores..pero voy a trabajar en ello...solo es cuestión de organizarse... Grazie mile! Bon jeudi!
Nagyszerű videó Luca, mint általában! Mellesleg egy korábbi videóban beszéltél arról, hogy érdekes magyar nyelvű tartalmat kerestél... A "Friderikusz Podcast" TH-cam-csatornát ajánlom. Ez egy remek interjúműsor, amit nemrég találtam. Minden epizódnak feliratjai vannak. Minden jót!
Thanks for this video Luca! It always gives me a motivation boost (and reminds me that motivation is unreliable and that I have to focus more on habits and regularity ^^')

Thank you for this video!I started learn polish,but I'm still stuggleing with resources what is good in the beginning or how to use them.I see that Assimil book for polish is only in french and italian,not in English.But this video is very helpful,thank you! 🙂
Comprehensible and interesting are not an easy thing to find. I love philosophy, but studying Kant in a foreign language may not be a good idea. With that being said, I am a big fan of Luca. Great video!
Most people who think they are going to learn a language consider to devote one or two hours a week to this task 🤣🤣 then they say that learning languages is hard, or that the teacher is an exception. I must add that for me motivation is very important and for me the trick is to link it to whatever interests me at that moment.
Learning a language and speaking it fluently takes a long time and daily work. I'd say between 30 and 120 minutes every day for at least 2-3 years (depending on the language)
What happens when you stop to study on a daily basis and you want to start the learning process again after some time? How can you restart your learning routine?
Thanks, Luca! Seriously, I have seen this so often. Practically every TH-camr I follow (mainly language related channels like this one) regularly employ this kind of gesture. You don't seem to be able to pronounce the word "four" without putting up your hand with four fingers stuck out... But in a normal conversation nobody does this kind of thing. So what's going on here? Have you copied this from each other subconsciously? Or do you want to impress your audience with your precision? I am just curious. Whatever it is, it won't stop me from following your fantastic content. I have learned a lot over the years.
Luca sei un grande, spero un giorno di conoscerti (magari un giorno passi da tenerife😎)! Che libri bilingue mi consigli per migliorare il mio inglese? Ho un livello intermedio, vorrei ampliare il mio vocabolario. Grazieeeeeee
Hola Luca, apenas descubrí tus videos hace poco y he empezado a verlos, siento que cada vez entiendo más tus videos en inglés. Sin embargo, me gustaría empezar a estudiar alemán, y siguiendo tus recomendaciones, me gustaría comprar un libro de gramática básica para ir a la par con la revisión de videos, así como tú lo recomiendas. Pero no se que libro comprar, cuál o cuáles me recomendarías? estoy en ceros en alemán. Gracias, me encantan tus videos por cierto.
Well, Luca, I have a simple question: What do you do for the maintenance of fourteen languages if you have to use thirty to forty minutes every day to keep them along?
Hi I wish to know how we decide how to start when exactly.. we are so worried about the process, we don't know where to start?? Too many resources. TH-cam, movies, books, online websites.
Your recommended resource list is very comprehensive! However, German is missing. I remember you’ve learned to speak German as well. Any resources that you recommend for A2 level?
Thanks for replying. I feel like such an idiot. Using the computer I can now see German in the link. However when I was browsing on the phone (iPhone, safari), the page doesn’t show the first 6 languages. Must be a website bug? There’s no way to attach a screenshot to show you.
Hi Luca, I have some questions for you! Do you usually rely on spaced repetition through flashcards and apps (Anki is known to be the most effective one among all)? Also, do you personally believe that exposing yourself to the language through listening and reading, then write down every single word you never met before and finally repeat everyday via SR can be a good idea for the sake of language learning? Or do you find it an irremediable waste of time? I have resources which let me write them down almost automatically with sentence, audio and image related to the context (I usually spend an hour for 30 minutes of a show), but I always feel like I could do better in my language learning process.
Thanks for the question Dario! I have never used Anki nor flashcards but I do have a system to review, repeat and re-use what I learn. It is integrated in my learning schedule. At the very beginning I rely on my Bidirectional Translation method (which has a SRS system integrated). At the intermediate stage I rely on using notebooks and have fun forming short and meaningful conversations with myself by using fragments of relevant information that I extract from the material that I read, listen to and watch. I know this is a big vague but as Yoga Bliss Dance pointed out, you can watch a few Q & A sessions here on TH-cam where I address these specific issues and more. That's it for now =)
Hi Anson! Do you learn korean language just by listening to music? I think Korean language extremely complex. I study grammar, I do a lot of reading, writing and listening to various subjects. And I still haven't got fluency. Sorry, I'm not being arrogant. I just want to help if you want. ❤❤❤ Which country are you from? Sorry about my poor English.
@@crishayes10 Hi Crishayes, Neither do I get fluency after studying bks, and I actually learn korean by going to classes and doing some reading exercises (문화가 있는 한국어 읽기) on my own. In my case, I have initially thought of achieving fluency before my language journey but then I quickly realize that fluency really depends on which topics and I just can't be familiar with all the topics just like native. At first, I push too hard and soon experience my first burnout. Now, I shift my mindset and read fun passages in korean about korean culture and what do koreans eat etc (it's fun for me)
Socio linguistic register levels- many old style teachers focus on highly formal & semi formal (1 of 2). A few also include informal, slang, vulgar, swear.at times.
@@LucaLampariello Should i rewind the audio or video if i did not understand anything ? I am asking this because it makes the whole learning process boring and takes too much time. 30 minute audio takes 2 hours sometimes.
@@LucaLampariello I try to catch every word in the audio or video and rewind the content for more than 10 times, the process is fustrating, takes too much time and boring. Please give me some tips.
Hola Fernando =) Había planeado hacer el Q & A en español el 21 o 22 agosto. Pero resulta que tengo cálculos renales, así que vamos a ver si me encuentro mejor los próximos días y a ver =)

Perhaps another version is habit
where the language learning becomes 2nd nature, almost automatic ?

2. Set a time of the day to do it daily.

The Power of Habit is a great book indeed. Thanks for the comment!

@@crishayes10 Hi Crishayes, Neither do I get fluency after studying bks, and I actually learn korean by going to classes and doing some reading exercises (문화가 있는 한국어 읽기) on my own. In my case, I have initially thought of achieving fluency before my language journey but then I quickly realize that fluency really depends on which topics and I just can't be familiar with all the topics just like native. At first, I push too hard and soon experience my first burnout. Now, I shift my mindset and read fun passages in korean about korean culture and what do koreans eat etc (it's fun for me)
Schedules and routines are very frustrating for me...
I'd like to know your thoughs about language learning. Do languages fit into a project based approach?
Not sure I understand the question ;-)
All these channels teach us a different language than native speakers of this language communicate with each other.
Socio linguistic register levels-
many old style teachers focus on
highly formal & semi formal (1 of 2). A few also include informal, slang, vulgar, swear.at times.

How can I get the OIP course?

What you think about audiobook for a beginner ????
If the content is comprehensible, why not. However, in general I would recommend beginner resources such as ASSIMIL if you are a complete beginner
@@LucaLampariello Should i rewind the audio or video if i did not understand anything ? I am asking this because it makes the whole learning process boring and takes too much time. 30 minute audio takes 2 hours sometimes.
@@LucaLampariello I try to catch every word in the audio or video and rewind the content for more than 10 times, the process is fustrating, takes too much time and boring. Please give me some tips.
Yo sigo esperando el QandA en español😓
Hola Fernando =) Había planeado hacer el Q & A en español el 21 o 22 agosto. Pero resulta que tengo cálculos renales, así que vamos a ver si me encuentro mejor los próximos días y a ver =)

First comment
No it's not however a very interesting vedio
Greece to German?
You are right Luca, I generally don't use an academic approach. Years ago, I remember you used an analogy of learning to ride a bike. It rings true today, and makes total sense. Regarding resources, I have steered away from the mainstream books etc, I just use authentic and engaging stuff, as you said. Cheers
