When I went to Korea, I met a old grandpa selling hot chestnuts, all alone in the freezing cold of winter, so I decided to take my courage and buy him some. Before leaving, I said "감사합니다! 잘 먹겠습니다!/I'll eat it well" and the SMILE that appeared on his face was probably the most precious thing in the world.
I was so happy to make him brighten up... I still remember it 2 years later haha please don't hesitate to try to speak, you'll get some beautiful memories ^^
You nice.. you beautiful person... Have nice days during these quarantine...
AWW 😍
I know right! I find that a lot of older ones are just super sweet and so appreciative even when you’re messing up.
What a beautiful story!! Honestly made me tear up ☺️🌻
aww... that’s so cute！you nice, keep going！
I'm very shy about trying to speak Korean. There's this one Korean restaurant that I go to sometimes and I'm always nervous about trying to speak Korean there. But I did it and it made one of the people who worked there smile. She even complimented me saying my Korean was good. That made me feel good and it encourages me to keep studying.
I have been learning languages all my life and I have a few things to say about the modern “polyglot” community. A lot of people are fluent in a couple of languages, yet claim to “speak” 20 (you can search a video of two guys claiming to speak 20+ languages, while actually being fluent in a few of them). Why make a show out of it and not put earnest effort to learn as much as you can.
I genuinely believe that it’s more efficient to learn a few languages (2,3 or 4) and speak the languages fluently, then learn 10, for instance, and barely get by in all of them. Remember, quality over quantity.
For sure. Learning too many languages for the sake of knowing how to speak billions of languages is stressful. You end up just hoping around everything. In the end, even if you have acquired quite a bit, you will always have to keep trying to squish time into your day to review all the languages once in a while
@@sabrina3138 uP
I know people who know 7 and 10 languages fluently. They can read, write and speak it and have conversation in them. So I disagree agree with you.
I think it ultimately depends on a language learner’s goal. Sometimes quantity and not quality is the aim of others. Language learning is exploration, some prefer to travel to as many languages as he or she can; whereas others prefer to visit only a few and explore its cities in depth. The goal we all share in common is the pursuit for beauty, it is like a diamond, and both approaches shines with its unique splendor. There is beauty in breadth like the expanse of the heavens and there is beauty in depth like the wonders of oceans. But as bees we must all flit over gardens and dive deep in flowers to gathers its honey.
I don’t really agree, I think it’s way way more useful to be conversationally fluent in 10 languages rather than knowing the ins and outs of grammar of three or four. Yeah if they can’t communicate or watch media in that language, they aren’t really fluent, but if they have an active vocab of 10,000 rather than 20,000, I think that’s fine in order to say that they’re fluent, they’ll still understand over 90 percent of most conversations. I want to learn german grammar in order to teach it, but other than that there is no practical reason for it.
You are giving hope to all language lovers. By the way, I speak Tagalog, English, Spanish and currently learning Arabic.
princeipeazul I’m a native arabic speaker if you need some help on anything I’m here to help:)
Hello, pwede bang malaman kung anong ginamit mo sa pag-aaral ng espanyol?
I am currently learning Arabic as well.
@@shraddha8232 مرحبا
People learning arabic , if you need any help i can help you .
I am a native speaker .
The first language I started learning was Mandarin, and in the early days summoned the courage to go into a Chinese restaurant and try to say wǎnshàng hǎo (good evening), at first she didn't understand but then she went "ah wanshang hao" and wrote something down on my order... I quickly noped out and left... Not sure what I had ordered!
How is your Mandarin now?
@@sabrina3138 haha, I keep starting and stopping... For some reason I have some issues to work out with myself (confidence, self-belief etc) before I feel I can continue. It's strange though, I only have problems with Mandarin, not other languages I'm learning...
Mandarin is without a doubt one of the toughest languages to learn, if not the toughest.
But every time I want to give up, I tell to myself "Hey, 1.5 billion people speak it, how hard can it be?" :)
@@MVahag I used to think that, but there's no verb conjugation! The tonal aspect can make it tricky I guess, and learning all those characters...
@@aprilcox871 Keep trying, push yourself out of your comfort zone. It may feel like a chore, but remember that you have bad habits while learning it. It may be a little bit hard in the beginning, but you will adapt and go on with good habits.
One of the most important mindsets you didn't mention is watching Lindie Botes' videos religiously.
@Anna Francisca Short answer: I've been using that name for various projects for about 21 years now.
@Anna Francisca
Long answer: I've lived overseas more than half my life, so I've always been sending "news" back to wherever I've lived before. I studied journalism in college, so it's part joke, part serious. The first time I used the name was to write group e-mails about Japan to people in other countries with 'NFTOS' as the subject line. Then I had an art show with the same title in Korea which featured all foreign artists and one local artist.
Next came a podcast by the same name. When TH-cam was created, well, you probably get the idea.
@@veloboy uP
so true though-
I like how she puts funny jokes on the side or awesome puns just on the spot lol, keep it up lindie!!
HAHAH trying to stay relevant with the kids
@@LindieBotes with the kids haha, you're a kid 🙂
When I am having fun .. jogging or taking a drink I usually listen to audios or podcast just for entertainment I feel that it has helped me somehow consciously. (I do this for the languages that I know I have an intermediate level). When I am just a beginner I just make my ear and brain feel accustomed to the sounds of my language goal and I'd better be focused on haha ..
Mswnk

After a year of trying to learn Korean I FINALLY said a simple 감사합니다 to someone at a Korean restaurant the other day. I was so nervous to do it and felt a bit embarrassed afterwards, but I was also proud of myself. I still usually chicken out though. I gotta get past the fear of sounding stupid and just go for it!
You're the reason I always get motivated for my language learning!❤
Lindie is a polyglot icon, periodt
This is helpful. I started learning Korean about 10 years ago and I'm still not that fluent. Maybe because of my bad mindset.
I speak Tagalog (my mother tongue), Bikol Central (another mother tongue, kinda), English, and Korean. I'm planning to learn Irish Gaelic, and German.
Wow! Why irish Gaelic?
@@aprilcox871 I got interested in the language because of a comedy sketch TH-camr. It sounds great too.
Fascinated that you want to learn Irish! Not even many Irish citizens can carry a conversation in Irish, me included! It's a lovely language though, I wish I could speak it.
@@MegaEmss Oh you're Irish. I really like the sound of it. I'm still planning to learn but what can you say about it? Is it hard?
an dito ako pag gusta mag tuto ng german haha
Lindie this was a very interesting vide but I couldn't focus on you because you have a Lingodeer plushie just right behind you AND IT'S TOO CUTE 😍😍😍
he is waving :D
Elena López Pazos haha me too. So cute 😊
You're the first one I pressed subscribe since I've known what is TH-cam until now. Thanks for sharing realistic and helpful advise. You don't make it sound like everything is perfect, instead, you point out so many issues and challenges one might face when studying a language. I can imagine that you have put enormous efforts in learning languages, and tried to find a good way to master them, and then sharing the method to people. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the sweet comment! I am so glad you are enjoying my videos and that you are passionate about languages too! Keep going!
Point one is important. Really important. One must speak in order to improve
Lindsey you should do this video in Mandarin, Korean and Japanese as well.
^ This doesn't apply to hikikomori like me
To be fair, you can't speak if you don't know grammar
@@GXrevolution96 so basically the moral is that you need to practice every part of the language to get good at every part of the language.
@@uamdbro uP
Yeah, the whole "Become fluent in 3 months by forcing yourself to speak" thing is so silly. I appreciate your tips! We only have so much time. Use it wisely!
when i was travelling to france with school, we were at a stop and when me and my friends sat down a korean couple came over and greeted us and asked us where we were travelling from, i told the man and he turned around to tell his wife “영국” and i went oh i know a bit of korean! but wasnt confident in my pronunciation and was hesitant in case i forgot honorifics. i do hope they are safe and well. （╹◡╹）♡
This resonates with me so much! I started studying Mandarin when I was in school. After studying Chinese for a few years, when I finally went to China I was too scared to even ask where the bathroom was. Now when speaking Korean I am much much more fearless ( I probably sound stupid much of the time, but I just don't care anymore). I just talk and keep repeating things until people understand what I am trying to say. I am less focused on being "perfect" and more focused on actual communication. Defs agree with the studygram comment too - I also try to limit my time on instagram now for that reason. Great video! ✨
Thank you so much for your tips!!! I'm always nodding in agreement whenever I'm watching your videos; lots of the things you've mentioned are so relevant to my language learning journey, and I imagine everyone else's too.
During the lockdown in the UK, it's getting pretty boring so I'm glad that I've got your videos to keep me sane.
I have been watching your videos for a couple weeks and i have to say you are very impressive. You don't act like you know everything and you seem genuine in your language learning journey. Thank you for being an asset to humanity!
This is what i needed.. my anxiety affects my mindset a lot and i keep struggling everytime i want to learn new languages. I'll watch this video whenever i feel unmotivated from now on☺️
Wow I absolutely love how you put in SO MUCH EFFORT when making your website just so you can help people who are also trying to learn different languages. THANK YOU SO MUCH!💖💖
Thank you so much for making this video! Aside from learning English, I've been studying Japanese for around a year now, and I got really discouraged and unmotivated because I'm not as good as I thought I would be. This video made me believe in myself again and I can't thank you enough! ❤️
ありがとう for this!! I’ve been scouring TH-cam for weeks looking for “best method to learn Japanese” or “how to become more confident in learning Japanese” and this is the exact advice I’m looking for! 🎉💕 thanks! Subscribed! 😄
Great tips! You are clearly an effective communicator since you manage to summarize many books on self-development in a 10 minutes video. Keep up the great work!
BRUH thanks for plugging your blog omg that looks incredible!!! im going to bookmark it rn
I am just now getting Into the study community! I am going to a Language School now after studying Japanese for five years and not getting anywhere, so I'm trying to Immerse myself around people who have great vibes and helpful Information about learning languages. I am glad you brought up your blog, because I am new to your channel. I'm definitely going to follow you!
Thank you for this video! Lately, I've been feeling discouraged about my Japanese learning. I felt stuck and did not know how to get better. This video gives me the motivation t get out of that negative mindset. Bless you ❤
This is an amazing encouragement, Lindie! Thank you for doing what you do! I am so glad I found this channel.
I need to work more on fearlessness! ^^
Anyway your blog is so so useful, thank you! :D
Sending love from italy ✨🌼
You are such an inspiration. When I feel stuck on my language goals this is the first place I go. Thank you :) Wishing you the absolute best
This really hit home. Fearlessness is the hardest part for me. I've been learning bits of French for several years now, but the perfectionist in me is scared to speak "until I'm good". Obviously, this is counterproductive, because I'm never going to improve unless I actually USE the language. I'm trying to work through my fears of sounding silly one day at a time. I took a huge leap of faith recently by making a video here on TH-cam about how I'm learning French at home and I hope it pushes me out of my shell.
Thanks for this amazing video 🌷
Hello Lindie. I've discovered your channel few days ago and just wanted to share my feelings to you.
I admire your confidance and your mindset about languages learning : this is exactly what I needed to be able to evolve in my own language learning journey.
Your videos, and espacily this one, had free myself from a lot of guilt and pressure I was putting into the task of learning Japanese.
I'm learning this language since middle school (so for more than 10 years) but haven't been really consistent.
Result is that now I am still a beginner unable to have easy conversation.
Some weeks ago I've decided to get back to studying serioulsy but I was still putting a lot of pressure on myself, thinking about all the times I've put Japanese aside.
Now all I have to do is to think about your mindset and I feel serene. I just want to have fun learning no matter my results :)
I wanted to thank you for that and encourage you to keep up the good work you're putting into your channel.
I'm looking forward to see more of your videos!
- Cécile who "only" speaks French (native), English (intermediate) and a little bit of Japanese (for now!) :P
I'm reaaaally grateful that I came across you!!! (I remember your video on my home feed while I was starting Korean two months ago) Thank you for the motivation!! I'm still at a beginner level but I'm glad that I still made progress!! 💖 I hope you're doing well and you're safe!! 😁😁
Aloha Lindie, I typed, printed, and hung this on a wall next to my desk. Great reminders. Mahalo. I recall trying to learn Japanese for business purposes and didn't last long as I wasn't enjoying it (I didn't enjoy the job either, but that is another story ;-) ) My current TLs have other significant motivations that really help make them fun.
Lindie, you have motivated me so many times in the last couple of months! I am currently learning Modern Greek but sometimes I just have the feeling that I can't even say a few simple sentences... But your videos keep me motivated! Thanks a lot!
If you need help find me on ig : jay_wizboy, I'm Greek
Hii Lindie!! Thank you for the tips 🤗. It's so motivated hear somethings are possible to do for go to the our deal. I have been studying English and I inspired by your history, your force, I look up to you 👏✨
I really want to thank you from the deepest part of my heart. I'm Italian and learning English was so frustrating for me, and I always thought I will never be good enough compared to other people. Then last year I went to South Korea to start learning Korean, and meeting other people from all around the world made me realize that my mindset was completely wrong. I was struggling of course, but we were struggling all together and it was fun! All your points are so accurate.
I really hope more people will see your videos, you're great! Thank you so much again ❤️
Thank you Lindie. You are such an inspiration. When I stumble on my language learning journey your videos are what get me going again.
Hi Lindie! A fellow South African here, so excited that I found your TH-cam channel. I started to learn Spanish and I am so excited about the journey that's ahead!
Omg you're a UI/UX designer! That's so cool! I'm looking to pivot that direction potentially because I have always loved art and design but my parents always pushed me to do something "useful". Seeing that you can do UI/UX and languages is amazing to me!!
Lindie, I want to thank you for making your videos, it's so motivating!!! Being a student at the linguistic university I often feel down and unmotivated and you are the only person who always helps and supports🥲❤️ Thank you very much for that!!!🥰
In regards on fearlessness and flexibility I have two stories for you (I am learning Korean) first, when I went to Seoul, I put myself to greet every single person I could in korean and to say thank you and please and all of those pleasantries in korean. And it felt liberating because people understood and they made the effort to keep the conversation in korean even thoumost if the time I couldn’t keep up. Even when I tried to give the address of my hotel to a taxi driver and he said that I spoke very good but the address was written wrongly I felt good with myself. Second: I tried only TH-cam videos first but that didn’t help me much. Then I tried only watching kdramas, but I only like the historical ones and those are not very helpful in learning everyday korean lol. Then I downloaded Korean Grammar in Use and Basic Grammar by Andrew Byon because I love grammar but that proved difficult without real life examples and a teacher who I could ask questions. Then I enrolled in a korean course in Spanish (my native language) and the teacher didn’t know grammar, only her knowledge of speaking korean since birth so my questions remained unanswered. I gave up a little bit but then I decided to just use everything. I double check everything with several sources and I discovered TTMIK which is a lifesaver and I actually enjoy learning now. I give modern kdramas a chance to be able to listen and of course kpop always helps because it actually helps me check if my hearing has improved if a previously unknown lyric suddenly is understood. Also I now discovered you which inspired me immensely because now I am also learning French and it has proven difficult because it’s not for personal enjoyment but a life obligation.
hey! if you still try to find something to watch in korean i can recommend you a korean tv show named "the return of superman" in which korean celebrities that are fathers looking after their children. this show really helped me since the kids in the show learning korean as they grow up (their native language is korean). you can find it's episodes with english subtitles on kbs world's channel. also i would recommend you to watch reality shows rather than dramas since dramas scripted and the reality shows are not scripted (you can hear more natural sentences made by native speakers). but these are just my recommends, you should do what you enjoy while learning.
i'm so happy to find your channel. thank youuuu so much!!
I love your channel! Your content and just your overall vibe and outlook is very positive, motivating and reassuring. I speak 5 languages and I'm looking to learn a couple more and even having learned 5, I'm still constantly looking for tips and advice and your videos never fail to help.
keep up the good work Hun love your videos. super informative and entertaining.
OMG I have never seen a youtuber who is so real in his video like u . And yeah you are totally right in every single word
you always motivate me to study ENGLISH and Japanese more
Lindie, I will watch this video again and again, because this made me feel amazing.
I had an awesome routine that I made for my Korean studied, I made so much progress that I was proud of, but eventually realized that I'm not able to put it to use in my communication skills. I figured I have to let my old and loved routine go for now, and focus on speaking and listening.
At the same time, I started a new job and found that I have less time for it.
Then I noticed my ability is 1 hour a day in which I will use lingbi app for speaking with people in Korean.
But some days.. I'm not able to do that 1 hour a day, because I'm so tired and just don't feel like it for some reasons.
You made me feel really good about the changes in my learning journey. My motivation is still there, for sure! I haven't lost it.
Thank you for giving me faith and encouragement.
Thank you so much Lindie! Your video gave me inspiration and motivation for my language learning journey.. Need to set those tips in mind
Your videos are so encouraging. Without reason other than wanting to stimulate my brain, I had a desire to begin learning Japanese. It has been about a month now and I have some basics down pat but feel a bit stuck on what to do next. I will be searching through your videos for ideas and resources.
Thanks for all of the time that you put into it.
Easter
Really great video. I like your mindsets! Thank you Lindie 😊
I've seen other polyglots in youtube vids talk about their journey and etc, and so far, you're the one who's the most pleasant and inspiring, so far. 💜🤧 I'm really glad I found your channel!
I found this video really useful, thank you! :) I often worry I'm getting too old or can't learn more than 1-2 languages at a time, even though I'm interested in about 5. I often feel so much pressure to be consistent with my studies because I see people online doing stuff every day and it can get hard sometimes. But this video helped a lot. :)
You dont have any idea how many times i watch this video just to motivate me 😂 currently learning spanish right now ❤ you and ikenna obi are my insperation
Definitely one of my fav videos so far 💛
Such a great video!! Love how you present your points!
That website though 😏😏😏
So many good points! 💕
Intrinsic motivation is soooooo important. If there was anything I remember from the tefl course I took, it was to help people become ~lifelong learners~, help them become ~intrinsically~ motivated. And that applies to ourselves too!
Well done on your website! It looks very good 😊
Great video, Lindie! Thank you very much!
Obviously going to your blog after this video!!😄
I made a video about how I learned Italian and you are so right about being fearless - the best way to to learn was making friends and reaching out which makes one fearless in my eyes! love ur videos
I think that what you said about the studyblr and instagram lang-learning communities and the neat note-taking is SO TRUE and something that I've been thinking about lately. I understand the mindset that the better notes look, the more likely we are to go back and look at them, but I also think it's better to be honest in terms of motivation. It really just seems like people have become so focused on taking beautiful notes just for the purpose of sharing them online. And that is such a waste of precious time imo. There has to be a balance. I believe that time efficiency is probably the most important factor when it comes to note-taking, especially if you're no longer a full-time student.
Highly motivating, as always. Muchas gracias, querida Lindie.
I’m currently trying to learn Korean because I think the language is cool. I try to keep myself motivated by telling myself, “ Think of all the korean manhwa you could read!” And all the Korean youtubers you could watch without needing subtitles!” I also think how cool I would look reading a Korean book in class 😅
My mom tells me I should improve my Spanish first, since my family is Mexican and English is my first language, but since I’m sort of intermediate in Spanish, I think I’ll spend time learning both languages. (Especially with all the free time we have thanks to quarantine)
Good luck on everyone’s language learning journey!!!
I love this! I'd also want to mention that you need to let go of your ego a little bit. I feel like this is kind of a combination of your fearlessness and flexibility ideas. You mentioned you can't express yourself as well as you can in your target language. That holds a lot of people because they want to. Gotta get over it. You gotta get creative to say the things you want.
But, there's really interesting things about which is more important. Making sure you don't make mistakes so they don't fossilize or being daring and trying new things? It really depends on your goals in the end. If you want to be a technical translator you can't have a lot of fossilization. But, for the vast majority of us, get out there and doooo it!
I love this video. A lot of the b-roll was really fun!
Your first point is absolutely CRITICAL, and I'll be honest it's a big hurdle for me. In the past, I regret not saying 'hello' in Russian to a few Russians I've come across, out of fear of looking stupid or treated with suspicion, but I find Russian fascinating. Anyway, keep up the great content!
i was just binge-watching your old videos and saw this video pop up and i just wanted to say your editing has improved so much!
your website also looks super cool and functional so i will check that out!
Thank you so much for talking about not having a schedule to study. All of the youtuber polyglots that I look at for tips have such structured days and schedules to work. This makes me feel like I cant learn a language because I just don't like schedules and it just puts me off more.
I have learnt English for over 10 years and my English still over the beginner a little bit. However, I have a huge love to English so I am deciding to quit my job and focusing 100% on studying English. Thank you for your videos due to they are really useful and interesting. Your accent is pretty sweet. I hope I will speak English fluently like you.
I'm really motivated after watching your video again....lindie!!
This was super encouraging and helpful. Thank you!
thank you so much Lindie❤️❤️ you are so reassuring and i truly need this, hope will bump into you in singapore some day, that’s my dream country to work in
I feel called out, I'm guilty of making my notes look pretty on Instagram
Not a bad thing at all! It's just bad when you're not studying because of that hahaha

Hi Lindie, I discovered your channel last week and I already went through all your videos 😅 I loved them.
I also enjoy learning languages my goal for this year is to continue with French and Korean that’s why you channel inspires me.💕
Greetings from Costa Rica :)
Thank you for pointing out the “pretty post” problem! I haven’t fallen in to this -yet- but I’m afraid that I will. Watching you talk about that is helping to give me another push away from falling in the trap. Thank you!

THANK YOUUUUU
The studygrams with no errors or scratched words make me NERVOUS!!
Lindie Botes you are my role model. Right now I'm starting to learn mandarin and this video is a good start and motivation. ❤️
love watching you ❤️ has been inspiring me for a month,thanks
Great channel! It's helping me a lot, and I'm very happy 'cause I'm able to underestand you :)

Thank you - obrigada 🇧🇷
This was a wonderful video. Thanks for reminding us the importance of having fun when learning our target languages
Thanks girl I love this video. I am motivated with my language learning.
thank you so much Lindie 😭😭 I really need this right now
Thank you Lindie. Really enjoyed the video and I loved what you said about no. 4 focus. I have been busy with Croatian, just less than a year. Often I have thought I should be "kind of fluent" by then and of course I am ages way from it. But it's ok. As you said, it's a life lasting journey.
I love it. Your video help me so much. What all of you have said here is true. Sometimes i feel like that too. I like learn new language and now I learn Japanese, Mandarin and Spanish now.
Lindie, thank you so much for this! I'm learning Japanese right now and I also like being flexible instead of sticking to a schedule. Your video has encouraged me a lot! Love from India❤
Thank you! This was amazingly helpful!
Great Job!! I really am enjoying your channel.
You are so inspiring:) I am Hungarian and you got me sooo surprised when in one of your videos you started speaking in Hungarian all of a sudden (in Hungarian I would say "megállt bennem az ütő" :))
I also speak (better said I should be able to speak) four languages, besides my mother language (English, Spanish, German, Korean) and I often lose faith that I would ever reach the level I wish to be at, but you just gave me a new surge of hope, thank you!!
Új lendületet kaptam Tőled, köszönöm:) Csak így tovább! 화이팅^^
