This guy is a no BS guy when it comes to language learning. No shortcuts, no sugarcoating, no passive learning. You deserve more subs, man. Greetings from the Philippines.
The thing is, how often do you have to repeat the 1-2-3 sheet ? And how do you do this exactly ? Reading aloud ? After some time, translating to your target language ? The common agreement is you need thirty repetitions for one word. Assuming you read aloud or translate the expressions daily, you might learn 20 words a day. If you read very fast. For a decent amount of 3000 vocables you need 150 days or approximately half a year. Realistically, one year, which is anyway pretty fast, to learn a language. Which is, definitely, worth a try. Anyway, only a few people are able to follow such an extreme discipline daily, and that is the weakness of any method. And why not calling it the 1-2-3 method, as this is the core of the method, the simplicity.
It's a good question ... in the Language Matrix universe ... the question of repetition is dealt with this way: There is a difference between repeating words and expressing the same thought repeatedly. Imagine you told me, "I'm going to Cuba in May" ... and I said, ok, repeat that 30 times. Now imagine you told me, "I'm going to Cuba in May" and I said you're going where? And you said Cuba. And I said you're going to Cuba when? And you said in May. And I said you're doing what? And you said I'm going to Cuba in May. In the second way, you are repeating yourself but you doing so because you are expressing a thought each time.
@@LanguageMatrix I'll give it a try. To learn french, fast. The worst result is, it does not work, but anyway I learnt for three months with at least traditional progress. As a big hurdle I would say is, it is almost impossible to form your thoughts if you start from exactly zero. In the case if you have already a basic knowledge it will work no doubt.
Thanks for pointing me to this video! How would this look for someone like me who has an intermediate level of comprehension but isn't as good at production/forming thoughts? Should I start with things I already understand to get smoother, or with things I haven't seen yet?
From your look and name I'm taking a punt that (most of) your ancestry is from the British Isles so could you do this in Welsh or Anglo-Saxon please Tony?

Greetings to you my friend and thanks for your kind words
Be interested. Be consistent. Follow Tony Marsh, and work harder when you hit the barriers of language. Never get negative.

great stuff
This is fun! These tables have energized my learning. For a language to model for us, how about Hungarian?
It's very fun right?
As you're in Chicago, how about you call it the Speakeasy method. Either way, i do love the idea of it, thank you for sharing it!
The ending of scareface Al Capone was not very nice ?
That's quite good

auxillary verb lol I felt that
Workable system to have very basic conversations.
Glad to hear that
