    Pro tip if you're trying to learn Arabic and can't choose a dialect, just choose Egyptian it by far has the biggest media influence also the geographical location of Egypt is the closest to the middle of the arab world you'll get. And the dialect has softened many sounds that are usually hard for non-arabic speakers

      If you was to learn Egyptian Arabic then would you be able to communicate with people from places such as Qatar and dubai? I am at the research stage of Arabic and would love to know your opinion

      @@moose1419 in my opinion the bigger a dialect's presence in media the better that's why i think Egyptian is great, now it obviously depends on the person but most should understand it just not speak the same dialect back to you, if you let them know they'll probably use modern standard arabic to speak back to you

      @@moose1419 yes I believe the egyptian dialect is the easiest to learn and all arabic speaking countries can understand that dialect, you'll also have a lot of ressources that's help you learn (movies, series, songs...) however you'll still strugle to understand the other dialects at first since some of them may be very different. I always think that it is good to have a general idea on standard arabic since it's the basis of the all the dialects

    I was raised in a rural village in the Philippine, where people struggle for studying. To be honest, I didn't even graduate high school in that village cause of lack of financial. However, I'm very happy of having an habit of learning new languages. So now, I'm able to express myself in three foreign languages such an English, Arabic, and Korean. I learned all of these by myself. This video really motivates me to learn more. Thank you. #selfstudy.

    Iclal’s schedule for Nicos Weg A1 and A2 levels:
    1. Go to the lesson page
    2. Go to the vocabulary section. Read, memorize and write down (into the according notebook) the vocabulary. Note: Write down only vocabulary without the translation. After practicing several times you will remember these words and expressions without translation.
    3. Watch the episode 3 times without subtitles, and 1 time with subtitles (in German of course).
    4. Tip by Zoe: Practice your pronunciation with the shadowing technique. Watch the episode again, listen, pause and record yourself, then check similarity.
    5.Go to the exercises, do all the exercises. Write down the mentioned text with the highlighted words and expressions (I will take another notebook for it). Write down dialogues without translation.
    6. After completing all exercises go to the grammar section, read it, and write it down in another notebook.
    7. Watch 1 episode and complete these tasks (1 lesson) every day. After 5 days or 1 week take a break, and watch previous episodes together (5 - 7 episodes together), the total duration will be 10-15 minutes. Then you can memorize all vocab, all grammar tips, all dialogues, and all texts.
    8. Before taking an exam, I’ll recommend you to watch the entire movie and read and memorize everything you wrote down.

    I think it's great to be honest about how your actual languages' learning journey was by mentioning, for example, that you already went to academies or learnt them since school, that gives people more perspective and a hit of reality. It's not the same learning a language by yourself, using just internet with not guidance, than learning with a tutor and practicing with a native speaker (or be able to afford to pay for a service that provides exchange partners, like italki). Of course there is a chance you can learn a new language by yourself, but that can be challenging and without a routine things can be difficult. Also, not all of us have the skills to learn a new language easily. It's going to depend on each people's style of learning, habilities and income. That's why I appreciate that youtubers like you are more open-up/sincere about the polyglot thing. Thank you for sharing these tips.
    And for those who want to embark on this kind of journey, go for it! But keep it realistic, be patient and avoid comparing yourself with others. Good luck everyone ^^

    Personally I like to start learning any language
    •first, with an introduction just as you said, for having a general knowledge about how the language is,
    •then the alphabet, meaning, how to read and write
    •Next the sentence structure and conjugations
    •Lastly I like focusing on learning as much vocabulary as I can, so I can talk about many things!
    Obviously, this is not everything, I just take this like my “basic structure for learning languages", because they have so much more things that you have to learn, and it can be so flexible depending on the language you are learning, for example, I'm learning korean and portuguese, in korean there are a lot of different ending conjugations and they are very important, so I will focus on learning them, but in portuguese is totally different, so I will focus on learning other kind lf grammar points than korean has, so depending on the language you will study one thing or the other, but for me, that list of points that I told you at the begging, has worked very well to sudy languages in general, in that structure, I've notice that learning one thing, takes you to learning others and so, so that way I know what to study next!!
    So for all those self-learners learning any language (like me), I hope my way of learning can help you to learn a lot! (Remember it's just a base and it is flexible depending on the language you are learning) So let's keep going!✨💖

    I completely agree with everything you said! I keep telling my students my best tip to success - listen to the sentences, get a set of couple and keep listening to them. Not only will you learn words in context so you remember them easier than just as single words, but they sort of have a personal connection in your brain now.
    If you learn a sentence: mom went to the store and bought eggs
    Listen 25x - I guarantee you will be imagining your mom going to the store and buying eggs. Then you will remember all the words from this sentence. Just have them written down and translated and listen to them and look at your sentences and translation.
    Good luck to you guys learning languages ❤️😍

    I'm learning Finnish for about a month, and I really found many tips in your video very helpful. The Finnish grammar is very complex with 15 cases. So instead of learning them all at once, I should start with the most common ones and advance gradually. Vocabulary wise, it is also very different (I'm a native Chinese speaker, learned English at a very young age. I learned Japanese and German later. Many vocabs from Japanese and German, I can find similarities in the languages I already knew. However, Finnish as an Uralic language, I really struggle with the vocab. Nonetheless, seeing that you have learned so many languages really inspires me and makes me believe that I can achieve the goal, albeit with a longer time. As you said in the end, "language learning is a marathon not a race", I should feel less anxious about how much time I take to reach a certain level, rather about enjoying the scenery so far.

    Wonderful video, one of best ones out there. I wish there were videos like these when I started learning languages. I speak 5 languages, 5th one is still in progress. And here are my tips for self language learning:
    1 - Firstly research your new language, how it functions differently from your language.
    2 - Start from A0 level course. Do the ABCs part of new language and very basic grammar etc. Can be video or audiobook or book but with audio. Also keep in mind, some languages don't have ABCs, like Chinese.
    3 - Remember to have patience, language learning is a long journey. Not something that can be done in few weeks or months.
    4 - Watch out for false videos on social media, there are people showing off that they learnt from zero in a month or so etc. These videos give false expectations and people fail to do it and then they simply leave thinking they will never make it. I was victim of this sadly.
    5 - Start with one main resource, but supplement it with another later, in free time. I use apps, I started with Duolingo, but it become slow for me at one point so don't use it now, I now use different apps.
    6 - Do it little by little everyday. But you must do it everyday. 30mins a day is better than 8 hours every Sunday.

I find it very interesting, that I often have seen others experiences very similar to mine. Learning and deciding how to start as many others have. I have taught myself many things over the years out of necessity curiosity and pure interest . I hope to gain momentum and travel to South America to visit friends and immerse with my new level of competence. This time I will have a new level of understanding and confidence. Thank you. 10:28
