I totally totally agree with the "speak like a child" part! That's how I learned to speak Chinese and French, I just tried to limit myself to using 3 words per sentence, like "I like this" "I want that" etc...
I think too many people try to learn the fully developed language right from the start and get frustrated and give up.
Why would x learn Chinese tho? It isn’t a pretty / balanced / refined language and it has an impossible pronunciation and writing systems with characters! I highly recommend learning the prettiest languages ever Dutch / Icelandic + Norse / Norwegian instead, which are as pretty / refined / poetic as English, they really are too pretty not to know! By the way, the best learning techniques are, watching and rewatching all sorts of vocab videos and videos on grammar many times over a period of time aka spaced repetition as well as learning all sorts of lyrics and watching all the videos / movies etc with subs in the target languages - I am learning 15+ languages at the moment, and this is by far the fastest and best method, anything else will take ages to get to a native speaker level, as one needs to learn / know at least 10.000 base words (15.000+ words) in an automatic way to get to a native speaker level, and it is possible (for a full-time learner) to get to a native speaker level in a pretty language or in multiple pretty languages in about 2 or 3 years, especially in category 1 languages and category 2 languages, which include all Germanic / Nordic languages and Welsh / Breton / Cornish / Manx and Gallo / Latin / Galician / Italian / Portuguese / Catalan / Pretarolo / French / Walloon / Spanish / Occitan (and all the Italian-based languages / French-based languages that are usually referred to as ‘dialects’ but are different languages) and Slovene and Hungarian, so Germanic / Latin languages and the four aforementioned Celtic languages are all very easy, while Irish / Scottish Gaelic are both category 3 languages, so these two may take a bit longer to get used to the spelling!
By the way, my current levels are...
- intermediate level in Old Norse / Icelandic / Welsh
- writer level in English + native speaker level in Spanish
- upper advanced level in Dutch + advanced level in Norwegian
- mid intermediate level in German / Swedish / Portuguese / French / Italian
- beginner level in Breton / Hungarian / Gothic / Latin / Faroese / Galician / Danish / Slovene
- total beginner in Cornish / Manx / Irish / Scottish Gaelic / Aranese / Elfdalian / Gallo / Limburgish / Occitan / Luxembourgish / Catalan / East Norse / Ripuarian / Swiss German / Alemanic / Austrian German / PlatDeitsch / Greenlandic Norse / Friulian / Pretarolo / Sardinian / Neapolitan / Sicilian / Venetian / Esperanto / Walloon / Ladin / Guernsey / Norn / Burgundian / West Frisian / North Frisian / East Frisian / Finnish / Latvian / Estonian etc (and the other languages based on Dutch / German / Norwegian / Italian / French that are referred to as ‘dialects’ but are usually a different language with different spelling etc)
(My list is incomplete tho, as there are more languages I want to know, which are usually extra languages that are based on the standard language, as Norwegian / Italian / Dutch / German / Danish have lots of those extra languages!)
Here’s more important language learning tips, such as, having the motivation, and, this is why choosing wisely is very important, because pretty languages are naturally motivating, so one doesn’t really want to give up learning a pretty language, as pretty words naturally bring a lot of joy to the eye and ear, and, if one is a beginner or intermediate, videos on idioms and vocab videos with hundreds and thousands of words should be the main focus, because vocab is the most important when it comes to actively learning the language or languages, and the more tens of thousands of words one learns / knows automatically, the more one can understand and speak etc, but without doing the hard work and learning the words and having the vocab, one is never truly going to progress or reach a native speaker level, so learning and revising vocab from vocab videos is key, and, if one is already advanced level, one should start watching all sorts of random entertaining / science / educational / tech / art related videos and language related videos and movies etc with subs in the target language / languages, which is the most natural way to learn new words and phrases in context and get to a native speaker level, and it takes a lot of éxpòsure to the language to get to that level, so that means constantly / regularly watching and rewatching vocab videos and learning and watching movies with subs and learning lyrics etc over the course of 2 or 3 years, and in 2 or 3 years one should be fluent - in certain languages such as Spanish and Italian, one could also become fluent by just watching TV series and movies, as that’s how I learned Spanish to a native speaker level in childhood in a 100% passive way, by just watching tons of movies and TV series in Spanish, and I learned it naturally, just as one learns the first language, and I have an automatic Spanish mode, so I can say what I want automatically without having to think about it, having watched hundreds or thousands of episodes over the course of 3 years, and I was already quite fluent after one year, as I was literally watching TV series all day long, every day, so that was a lot of éxpòsure to the language, and I didn’t even have subs, but it helped a lot that English and Spanish have a lot of cognates, so I could naturally understand a lot of the words, even in the beginning, but it doesn’t work that way with any language tho, but Spanish and Italian can definitely be learnt that way because they are usually spoken very clearly in TV series and movies, and one will understand most of the words and will learn the correct word, even without seeing its spelling!

I’m Russian and I’ve recently noticed that my jokes in English are much better than in Russian and it’s also easier for me to make them up when I’m speaking English
hi. I am Russian as well. And hell yes....Russian is way harder than English so it is easier to make good jokes

Brian you are an excellent communicator. Thank you for sharing and teaching.
This is great and we totally agree! We're actually using comprehensible input to teach Egyptian Arabic on our channel. Our lessons don't use any other languages, just context clues.
Excellent, sounds like very useful channel!

How did you learn the English language?
@@1.SALSABEElu didn’t ask me but want to give u my experience, so I learn English just listening to TH-cam video watching Netflix I never studied
I would only pick words of comments videos and translate them, memorizing them, sometimes I would forget them but the second time I wouldn’t. I’m not kidding this is how learned English 🥲😓

@@Lili_q Wow, very nice. Thank you very much for these tips and for how much time you took to learn
أنا فخور إني عربي بالتحديد من مصر و فخور إن الغرب بيتعلموا لغتنا العربية
عشان كده أنا بدأت كلامي باللغة العربية I am proud that I am an Arab specifically from Egypt, and I am proud that the West is learning our Arabic language
That's why I started talking in Arabic Continue with what you do you make us happy and help us thanks for all thing
I think that textbooks are not that "bad". A good textbook is well structured, not very expensive and it gives you a good idea of what you will have to learn to reach a given level. This doesn't mean that you have to study every single page or memorize every single word or that your textbook should be your only resource. You should complement the texts, exercices, word lists and so on by self-talk, comprehesible input from TH-cam or other resources and a language buddy to advance as fast as possible and to have fun! Happy language learning!
Congratulations on the topic!
Very useful content to help with learning.

I really got inspired by your videos which made a big difference in my whole life
So keep going
Following from Egypt
You are speaking so fluently. That's the first video that i watched without eng sub( i am learning english)
Well this explains why I have/had so much trouble learning languages.
Mr! That's video is exactly the thing I was seeking for. Best wishes to you, that's the only thing I could say without any other words (because all appreciation have already been given
This video can inspire me the easy method to learn a new language. I think it is true. We have to place ourself into the target language environment. Talking to yourself and point out the object that you see in your target language. Actually, I know there is no short cut to learn a new language but if we can have a good method that it can save us time to study. Thank you.
I love your kind soul my brother . My appreciation from Egyptian in Saudi Arabia
Great video! This advices really can help, so thanks for the video.
the talking to yourself thing is so true. I’m Italian-Ukrainian and grew up bilingual in Italian and Russian, but when I was 11, my parents decided to send me to a british international school because we often moved due to my mom’s job. I remember that one day I was trying to make a joke in my extremely broken english, and it kinda felt embarrassing. So embarrassing that I went home and just started talking to myself in English because I wanted to prove to myself that my english was GOOD. Obviously, being surrounded by the language for 7-8 hours a day and learning in it did wonders, but I think that will only get you to acquire a certain language as a second language. The fact that i talked to myself in English (still do), made me in turn start thinking in English, and now, 8 years later, I believe that English has overtaken my two native languages. Pains me to say but it’s true, and the self talk definitely played a role, because it helped literally drill english into my brain in a way that schoolwork probably never could
I'm already speaking Portuguese and Spanish fluently and now I'm mastering English and it's just what I need a lenguaje partner to practice
Great series of videos on learning languages, but the best way of all is one I've been personably fortunate to experience a number of times. That's total immersion. I stumbled across this when I did my sophomore year of college at the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos, which is a university in Cuernavaca, Mexico about 72 km south of Mexico, DF. I went to Mexico the day after finishing my freshman year at Penn. I had had 4 years of intense, prep-school Latin, which sort of primed me for Romance languages, but still only spoke one 'living' language, English. I spent the entire summer living in a 'foster family''s' house where the only English speaker was away at summer school at UCLA, so I started with the most important phrase, "¿Dónde está el baño?" ;). The family was very patient with me & the father & the younger son & I would practice every evening speaking only Spanish. By the end of 3 months, I began to take university level courses in Spanish (with trouble at first, but easing up as I was speaking only Spanish while I lived in Mexico for a year). Mexican Spanish is spoken by about twice as many Spanish speakers than any other national dialect. After grad school, I became a consulting software engineer & would live in different countries around the world for periods of 1 or 2 years, letting me pick up new languages. When I first went to Toulouse 20 years later, I couldn't speak any French, but could get by with Spanish to start because I was living in the southwest, only an hour from the Spanish border - though peninsular Spanish was very different from Mexican wit different ways of expressing things & stronger vowel sounds, (and no Indo-Aztecan Nahuatl influences) but found the change not that hard. I lived in Shanghai & learned Shanghainese which was close enough to Mandarin that I could be understood, though living for a year in Hong Kong & a bit in Guangzhou I totally failed to pickup Cantonese (Mandarin & Cantonese speakers don't understand each other (like North African & Persian Gulf Arabic speakers) & often rely on Chinese subtitles when watching TV in the other dialect!. For Cantonese, you pretty much have to learn it young when the larynx & muscles can form properly to pronounce its richer variety of tones (Mandarin has 4 at 3 pitches, as you know). I now have at least working fluency in 7 languages (fluency in 5), but find several starting to drift away at age 75 because I don't have native speakers to talk with any more. I'm still convinced that the "total immersion' method if you are able to live in the country where the language is native, is by far the best & fastest way to learn it. ¡Es necesario! After my year in Mexico, I was reading great works & even dreaming in Spanish. It is a MUCH more lyrical language for poetry, song & even prose (read Octavio Paz's 'Laberinto de la Soledad' for the best understanding of Mexican culture). El español cubano y el español puertorriqueño are just too slangy, sloppy & full of elision & Canary Islands influence for me to feel comfortable with even when I was fresh from Mexico. As a programmer who deals in over 30 programming languages, I am lucky to have the ability to pick up languages quickly. I still have several I want to learn (Danish, for one, as I'd like to retire there), however, so your advice is greatly appreciated. 谢谢
I should add that Toulousian French is as different in accent from Parisian French as Bogalusa, Louisiana English is from upper-class Bostonian, so whenever I'd travel to Paris, I was considered as no better than a vulgar Québécois! I once told a Parisian snob that any city that had named a street Rue de Jerry Lewis has voided all claim to culture!
Thank you for sharing your experience here- and I love that Rue de Jerry Lewis anecdote! I agree that total immersion is the best way to learn any language- and it sounds like you have a ton of experience learning languages, so I would recommend trying to approximate immersion by having regular video calls (over Preply/Italki etc) with native Danish (etc) speakers. Two a week is a good minimum, and the more the better. Good luck!
Accept your fears, love yourfailures thrive 💭🎯👏thank you🙏
Alexander Feldendrais focused on dynamic posture, which includes a very strong understanding of musculature. In one of his books he describes the musculature of language and how the muscles conform to special pronunciations, let's say rolling r's or some of the more throaty sounds in French or German. His research led him to conclude that musculature, i.e. the physical state of ones body, has an impact on the mind, thoughts and understanding. Hence, languages carry with them the dynamic musculature of a culture. Learning a language produces a physical, and therefore a mental change, which carries with it the intangible quality of it's particular culture. Fascinating stuff.
Added Preply to my list of tutoring resources are there many languages to choose from and even from the minor there is an "Also speaks". My only gripes are I wish Swahili was added as a main for Africa and that the also speaks category added many Indigenous language options like "Ainu", "Navaho", "Salish", "Quechua", etc. In this process some of those tutors may actually be native speakers of those languages and never thought anyone cared to learn it until they saw that. I want to learn Ainu but can't find anyone who speaks it. If you are a native Japanese speaker who tutors but also is a native Ainu speaker don't doubt that only Japanese want to learn it.
You are a kind of people which I like and I am not native English speaker..but your talk logic attracted me

Why would x learn Chinese tho? It isn’t a pretty / balanced / refined language and it has an impossible pronunciation and writing systems with characters! I highly recommend learning the prettiest languages ever Dutch / Icelandic + Norse / Norwegian instead, which are as pretty / refined / poetic as English, they really are too pretty not to know! By the way, the best learning techniques are, watching and rewatching all sorts of vocab videos and videos on grammar many times over a period of time aka spaced repetition as well as learning all sorts of lyrics and watching all the videos / movies etc with subs in the target languages - I am learning 15+ languages at the moment, and this is by far the fastest and best method, anything else will take ages to get to a native speaker level, as one needs to learn / know at least 10.000 base words (15.000+ words) in an automatic way to get to a native speaker level, and it is possible (for a full-time learner) to get to a native speaker level in a pretty language or in multiple pretty languages in about 2 or 3 years, especially in category 1 languages and category 2 languages, which include all Germanic / Nordic languages and Welsh / Breton / Cornish / Manx and Gallo / Latin / Galician / Italian / Portuguese / Catalan / Pretarolo / French / Walloon / Spanish / Occitan (and all the Italian-based languages / French-based languages that are usually referred to as ‘dialects’ but are different languages) and Slovene and Hungarian, so Germanic / Latin languages and the four aforementioned Celtic languages are all very easy, while Irish / Scottish Gaelic are both category 3 languages, so these two may take a bit longer to get used to the spelling!

Input is crucial so listening and reading are the key
Thank you so much for your useful tips. I used to talk to myself out loud in front of the mirror 🙈it helped me a lot to have self confidence, to be fluent, to use gestures & to vary my voice tone
That's a great way to practice- and thanks for watching!
@@BrianWilesLanguagesActually, thank YOU for your outstanding video. I love your accent, your way, your ideas..... It's such a great pleasure watching them.
Summarization is on point! Forget textbooks, learn like a child, converse with natives, outgrow beginner tools, seek challenging but understandable input, embrace failure, practice self-talk, and talk to real people, not just AI. Language learning is about immersion and adapting naturally.
I really appreciate that and thanks for watching!
Thank you for these efforts
As a German for me speaking in English feels in some regards a lot freer than speaking in my mother tongue, despite the fewer access to vocabulary.
I find this to be caused by the difference in culture between Engish speaking countries and German speaking ones.
I suppose that German is in a way a dash more analytical and English a dash funnier and less stuck up which leads to that difference :D
Interesting! Thanks for your comment

Thank you, Luna- that really means a lot to me! And good luck with Chinese 👍
Of course you can study/memorize languages. I do so. For some people it works, for some it doesn't.
Thank you very it's good advice l will try to do that
Thanks for sharing!
لقد أبدعت حقا من جميع النواحي، الفيديو رائع للغاية و مختصر و مفيد و كلانا يفكر بنفس اتفق في كل شيء ما عدا انني اشعر بالضغط حتى عند الحديث مع الذكاء الإصطناعي كما لو انه حقيقي 😅
Nice, I have learned English watching this video. I understand almost everything 😅😅 thanks for the tips

I’m from Japan. I resonate with your values. Learning from failure is likely to be abundant. Reflection of Experience: Failure is the result of past actions and judgments. From this experience, one can understand what didn't work and identify the factors that led to failure. This understanding enables better decision-making in similar situations in the future.
Personal Growth: Failure promotes personal growth. Insights and lessons learned from failure help identify weaknesses and areas for improvement. This, in turn, allows individuals to become stronger, more flexible, and mature.
I really appreciate those insights- thank you!
😃

Oh my good, all the Inf that I learned in just one video ❤️❤️ cool, thanks alot
Hi Brain! I really enjoy watching your videos, I've been learning English for a while and I do love learning languages I just wonder if you could tell us how to get a job in America as foreigns especially for Arabs. Thank you💞
看了您的影片，我決定學西班牙語，雖然我也喜歡法語的語調，但和我的個性、氣質相較下，似乎西班牙語的文化應該會比較適合我。謝謝您的分享!
谢谢！
Come on Brian we all miss you so much please create more videos like before
Lots of comments to read oh my...adding the emotional content of learning is certainly important.but also as you mentioned creating physical movement to ones own actions but even more would be if you find someone to interact with to talk in the language that also includes movement as a request or question. por favor puede darme un cuchillo while actually performing the task. Getting into the mode of the culture I think you alluded too is also good... eg possibly imagine one is wearing a sombrero... while speaking spanish..
بحبك جدا يا براين بجد و نفسي اقابل في يوم من الايام بجد ♥️ بالتوفيق ♥️♥️♥️
شكرا جدا يا كم 🙏
براين انت احلا انسان شوفتو في حياتي 😍😍
يا براين .
إنتا لازم تترجم كل الفديوهات إللي بالإنجليزي تترجمها لعربي ، عشان إنت بيتابعك ناس بتتكلم عربي ومش كلهم بيفهموا إنجليزي👍.
عدد المشاهدات هيزيد عندك أكثر من الأول .
Brian.
You have to translate all the videos to Arabic, because you are following by people who speak Arabic and not all of them understand English.
The number of views will increase you have more than the first.
I just loved this video!
It's just such an amazing masterpiece!
Thank you so much!
5 years ago I used to speak to myself everyone’s thought Iam crazy but when you use to you know it’s really enjoyable and useful to learn new Languages
I completely agree
10:26 thats the pointt!!!
Very nice point of view
احسن قناة ع اليوتيوب بجد❤❤❤
Thank you very much for this valuable information
Thank you for watching 👍
Brian, frankly, I am a fan of the field of acting. Can you tell us how you started in the world of acting and what advice is there for anyone who wants to enter the field?❤
Very useful video thanks sir ❤
Thanks for advice, and about thinking in another language it's really giving a new result.
Arabic gives more morally thinking
English gives more practical thinking
Svenska gives more Individuality thinking.
Interesting- thanks for your comment!
You're so right Brian

Man you're god of lenguages, I learn english and this language not my native language, and you speaking facts, and help me more thank you very much brother.
Your grammar isn't that good. fix that brother, Good luck on Your English journey!
Ok I agree that kids learn languages by listening which is what it sounds like you’re suggesting. I see two problems with this though. Kids don’t start speaking until 1-1 1/2 yrs old… that means that they listen to their language all day for 365-547.5 excluding naps. That is a long time and they don’t have a huge vocabulary until way later.
Amazing your English is perfect 👍 continue.
thank you so much
Thank you for watching!
It's quite simple... language is a skill and needs practice so it's not like history or literature it's more like music or art.
Thank you so much you are great
Thank you man 🫡
Thank you ❤
Self talk !!.This is a good way to learn English relatively🍃🌿🇪🇬
Very true!
Happy new year 🎉
Amazing!
I don't watch videos with subtitles, currently I'm learning English, And I'm watching this video right now, without any subtitles. I need them for songs, after having seen them, I started understand almost all words from a song, besides I understood only a small part of it.
بحبك كثير او بحب محتواك متابعتك من فلسطين 💜اتمنى انك تستمر او اتنشر فديوهات كل يوم عندك كثير متابعين عرب يحبوك انشالله لما تخلص الحرب راح احاول ازور اميركا حبيت الثقافه الامريكيه من وراك يا براين
شكرا حبيبي
على راسي اهل فلسطين❤❤❤
كيف تحب أمريكا والثقافة حقتهم ورئيسهم من يساعد إسرائ... يل على قصفكم وإبادة غ...زة؟ ؟
I agree that language changes your outlook on life and even affect your personality!
En français (ma langue natale) j’ai tendance à être plus réservée et critique. Je juge plus les gens et je garde plus mes pensées et émotions pour moi. Et en même temps, je trouve que mes blagues sont plus drôles et mieux placées. Il m’est plus simple de faire des jeux de mots par exemple.
Whereas in English (my second language) I tend to say absolutely anything that goes through my head and to behave in a much more social way. I tend to be very outgoing and hold conversations with many people in a row. I’m more anecdotal, and I tend to go off tracks pretty easily. It’s also easier to talk about my feelings and rationalise.
El español (mi tercera lengua) es otra cosa porque no lo hablo fluidamente pero he visto que también soy más extravagante y sociable en este idioma. Me siento inclinada a hacer cosas afuera y a hablar con muchas personas sin juzgarlas, aunque soy más tímida porque obviamente todavía no soy trilingüe.
Hey guy , i benfit from your videos it's helpful and fun, i trying to learn english to abel travel abroad thank you so much Keep going ❤❤

What do you mean by labeling?
I learnt English by day to day working as a secretary for a Canadian oil company.
After sometime I got surprised by my English capability 😊
Thanks for your content.
We are waiting for a second series, you are with Karim Al-Sayed in America, this will be great. I was late this time, Brian, a month has passed since the last video.💔🌹
