Re: Harry Potter as the first language book, it’s totally true, you’re not crazy! But I also feel like it rings so true with what you said about children’s book and their vocab. I’ve picked up the first HP book in Spanish and I’m struggling to read it because every other word is vocab like “sparkling and mischievous eyes”, “hands as big as bin lids”, “grizzly and tangled beard”, and I’m like 🥲🥲🥲
Thank you Anna for normalizing having language goals in your native language. I grew up speaking Chinese with my family but ever since living alone I find my Chinese getting rusty and I am willing to change that. Luckily I'm visiting my family soon and I will get more speaking practice.
Your Russian and Spanish videos will be awesome for your viewers who are learning those languages. I’m still using your language learning Notion template and highly recommend it to anyone reading this planning out their language study this year! Choosing what languages to focus on when there are so many we want to learn is definitely the hardest thing…!
I’m brushing up on my French and learning Spanish this new year. I’m super excited to achieve my language goals 😊. I can’t wait to watch your language videos and get inspired to learn and continue with my own journey too❤❤
It would be nice if you make a video about what worked and what didn't work for language learning at the end of the year. Like what goals you accomplished and such :)
when you said that living in a another country to naturally pick up a language depends on the experiences you have, as an introvert i totally agree with that '-' good luck with your languages goals! i'm starting french this year and this is the first time we're learning the same language together x
I feel you about the Russian so much! I'm Russian-Ukrainian too but I grew up in Finland, so I answer my mum in Finnish and I understand Russian on a (nearly) native level, but I struggle with vocabulary and understanding why stuff happens (like I know the grammar but only by "just knowing", if that makes sense xD) Я может тоже начну маме деньги платить если буду отвечать на финском хаха идея вообще супер
I love your goals in Russian and would love to see you make more videos about this language specifically. I find it fascinating the relationships we have with different languages compared to others, in the case with you and your sister and deciding how much you both are using it! I'm excited to see what you will produce in 2023!
as someone who speak french, italian and spanish, i experience more mixing with italian and spanish than with french because those two are much more similar. Good luck with your learning, best wishes and happy new year
What languages are you trying to learn this year Cassia? I'm studying Russian, but English is always revisited, it's the basics to learn new languages.
im beyond excited to see your russian and spanish videos it sounds like a dream for me honestly !! russian is my native language and english is my second language and i kinda know spanish a little so i would really like to listen to something in spanish as well !! you go girlll
I actually started learning spanish a while ago watching your videos. You're actually the inspiration to me.. YOUR videos made me do it!!! 😭 Love youu 🤍
I'm starting college in January (if they get everything together😡) and I also work part time, plus have my own youtube channel, yet I'm also going to be learning 4 languages: Swedish, Russian, Spanish, and American Sign Language. I have so much going on in 2023 but I want to challenge myself, I want to see how much I can push myself. Your a big inspiration for this, so thank you for that
I’m literally reading the first Harry Potter book in Italian as my first book in Italian, I didn’t know that was a popular choice lol!! I would recommend using Practice Makes Perfect books to help you with French & Italian, they’re really good!
im very glad i found your page and all these comments. ppl around me don’t have much drive to learn other languages or they speak one other language, but everyone thinks i’m very dumb for attempting to continue Mandarin, still dabble in Italian, and recently adding spanish. i haven’t even told anyone i’m starting Portugués. im glad i am stumbling upon youtubers, redditors, etc who already know its possible to learn multiple languages and do well at it! i love your videos anna, they’re so helpful
С наступающим Новым Годом!🎉🍾🎄 Видео получилось очень интересным, огромное спасибо за него! Успехов в изучении языков, да и в достижении всех заветных целей😊
I would love to meet you in Paris for a langage exchange !! Russian was also my first langage but growing up in France made me speak Russian way less and I actually relate to you soooo much because I respond in French to my mom even though she speaks Russian to me hahaha Im really glad I found your channel ! 💕
Heyy! I'm an spanish student currently living and studying computer science in Florence. I don't know where you would like to live in Italy but I have sooo many good recommendations. I've been loving these new series, now it's time for me to crete my new goals. Happy New year everyone!!!
Wow anna! the struggle to not add new languages to learn is real lol. I feel you. I've gotten a lot better at controlling it, thankfully, but it's still there. Also why harry potter is because it is an easy reading that becomes complex with time. It's not about the words per se , it's about how to manage hard grammar concepts and a complex context system in order to obtain meaning. Mind you, I've never used it, I am just showing you what other people told me.
I also want to do better in Russian since it's also my first language and to perfect it in Ukrainian because I'm also half Ukrainian and don't know how to speak it. I want to reconnect with the Russian side and Ukrainian sides of my family. I was never taught how to read and write, so this gave me motivation !!! Hope you will achieve these goals !!!
you are a big inspiration for me!!💌 i'm a native spanish speaker and i know speak english but this year i wanna learn korean, i've wanted to learn this lenguage for a long time and i think it's time to make it true!😸💌 new sub
Anna: you might be like "why is this language (Russian) here? you can't study a native language." But YES, you can! Me: finally somebody said it! you go girl Я тоже носитель русского языка и большую часть жизни говорю на нем, живу в России, сдала ЕГЭ по русскому (final exam in school) на высокий балл, но есть одно большое "но". Я билингв и последние года четыре 70-80% времени я говорю и потребляю контент на английском, тогда как на русском я говорю только с семьей и друзьями. Поэтому мне все сложнее выражать какие-то мысли на уровне носителя, часто звучу не как носитель, даже мемы и смешные фразы вставляю на английском. На занятиях (я препод англ) лезу в переводчик за русскими словами, когда меня спрашивают их перевод. Но при этом все как ты сказала: я люблю родной язык и мне важно его сохранить в себе. Так что в новом году обязательно начну им заниматься! 💪
Good luck to you! My languages and goals are: 1) Persian A2 ---> B1 (Read, listen, speak) 2) French B1- ---> B2 (Read and listen) 3) German B2 rusty ---> Good B2 (Read, listen, speak) 4) Spanish C1 ---> Comfortably reading Latin-American literature English and Dutch are no priority this year, since I already teach both.
Languages i am learning this year are korean , Italian and start Thai all just for the sake of interest and to enjoy them. I also want to improve my English as much as i can it isn't my first language and yet i am pretty fluent and good and advanced but I still want to keep improving and learning ☺️ Anna I wish you the very joyful 2023 and thanks for motivating me for so long. Also I wanted to share a little something that these last days of the year were not too good for me (i am okay now)but whenever I wanted to relax,i had your voice in the background which really distressed me.. Happy new year once again .... ~xoxo
This year I wanna focus on actually using the languages I'm learning (subtitling my videos, talking to people, etc.) in compromise with studying them the traditional way, so that I see that I'm not just learning and learning them and not using them :) Good luck on your French endeavors, I grew up around it so I find it quite easy, but I've heard your accent and it's quite good so you've already got a head start :D
can i suggest something? i hope i'm not crossing a line, but when you said you want to create six from scratch videos in spanish, russian or french, maybe you can talk about the book you read in that language. for example, you said you bought wimpy kid book in french and maybe you can talk about that wimpy kid book in french. it's just a suggestion lol but i loved your language goals, seriously. wish i could be this focused on the languages i want to learn lmao
Ahoj. Moc raduje to, když vidím takových lidí jako ty. Probouzíš nadšení jako říkají ostatní lidé v komentářích. Jsem Rus a můj rodný jazyk také je ruština. Udělal jsem pro sebe také jazykový plán, který v tomto roce se snažím splnit. Po 9 měsících studování češtiny znám ji poměrně dobře. Takže můj jazykový plán: nejhlavnějším cílem je zlepšení své angličtiny. Ale, pokud skončím toto rychle, tak ještě bych se naučil ukrajinštinu. Takže je to všechen můj plán. Ano, on je velmi skromný. Ale jen nedávno jsem se stál bilingvem (ruština a čeština), proto nemám moc velké cíle. Přeji vám hodně štěstí. Čau!
Same I already know Spanish and I’m learning French and Italian this year the best advice for you for all three of these languages are focus on Conjugation and Grammar.
I shared my goals on my channel for my languages, or my specific goal, actually 🤓 my languages are German, French, and Russian, but a fourth one might come soon 😅 all of your language goals sound very exciting, and I wish you the very best in achieving all of your goals from this video as well from your last! 💗💗💗 if we ever meet, we can do a little language exchange in all the languages we share in common 😆
You are so inspiring! I've started learning spanish a year a go but i wasnt very motivationed. But after I found your socials I became soooo consistent with my languages goals and I got my spanish on next level THANK YOU I also start my portuguese lessons because Im moving to Portugal next week (and I also start my youtube channel - everything on in life just moved on and you were one of the inspirations THANK YOU AGAIN :DD)
you keep me so motivated to learn languages so thank you 🙏🙏 this year my focus is french (since i have my a-levels this year and i'm going to be studying french at uni), and also picking up korean and spanish! I think i'm just going to stick to the three since this year will be so busy, but i'm super excited- good luck with your language learning this year!:)
Хм, вы имеете грамматику или лексику тоже? У вас немного другие буквы, слова тоже. Но когда со мной разговорила прабабушка на суржике я ее прекрасно понимала. Мне было бы интересно знать ваше мнение с украинской стороны, что именно отличается и какие детали, это интересно
@@ritassoul3516 с том-то и проблема, что на суржике. Я тоже раньше думала, что языки очень похожи, что в украинском очень много от русского. А оказалось это был только суржик. Понятное дело есть много похожих/одинаковых слов, но как показала практика русские не понимают чисто украинский, не суржик
I feel you so much about being awkward with Russian since it’s supposed to be your first language! My mother is Polish but my level in the language is at best B2. I now live in Poland as well and it is so awkward to just talk to people knowing full well I make mistakes and don’t sound like a native. I really want to focus on reaching fluency this year though so I have to get out of my comfort zone. And I am also wanting to improve my Spanish and start Japanese. It’s going to be a busy year!
Just a tip for your Italian trip, if you're gonna end up living in Florence, you need to know that in Tuscany, the letter "c" is aspirated, so instead of "casa" (home), you re going to hear "hasa". P.s. muggle in Italian is "babbano" (funny word right?). I wish you success on your language journey 🥰
Mille grazie! I have the first two Harry Potter in books in Italian but I haven't started reading them yet. Just went to Google Translate and the stress in "babbano" falls on the penultimate: "babbáno". Italian text doesn't always tell me where the stress falls.
I’m a new subscriber and am loving these planning videos. I’m focusing on learning Spanish and German in 2023 and I may dabble a bit with Russian by learning the alphabet. Here’s to 2023 guys!!🎉
I'm bilingual and I did my family language as a gcse so don't ever worry about studying your own language, after all we all did our native language eg English every day of our schooling life
im excited for u to come to Brazil :) hope u can learn portuguese soon! u inspire me alot! ill focus on italian this year but ill take some time for spanish as well, and of course improve my english, hopefully getting to C1 in it
I love when you speak about languages! For 2023 I'm studying English, Spanish and Korean (I'm French). I hope you pick Korean again in 2024 ? Anyway happy new year Anna, lots of love 💜
omg!! I did a French study abroad at L'Alliançe Française Paris and it was phenomenal! If you are looking for a language school whilst living abroad I cannot recommend it enough mwah!
As a brazilian, I think portuguese is quite similar with italian, but far from french 😂 it’s kind hard to pronounce words in french. Words in russian looks easier for some reason, specially because of the R sounds for me
When I started learning Brazilian Portuguese, I noticed a lot of French loan words in your language: la grève > a greve, le soutien > o sutiã, le maillot > o maiô, le métro > o metrô, la boite > a boate, e outras palavras que não vêm à mente por enquanto... When learning French, one needs a lot of native audio, whether through a course like Assimil or content on TH-cam or Netflix. I started out learning French with a phrasebook with only about an hour of content on audio cassette, fita-cassete - I don't know if you remember those... - and I've been self-correcting my pronunciation ever since.
hey, Anna! :) I just wanna thank you for being so open minded about Brazilian people and language. I don't know if you understand the importance of letting go of the stereotypes and put yourself out there to really get to know us, but it means the world to me that you do. Even nowadays, we suffer with xenofobic opinions about our country and people, and seeing someone like you, excited about our culture, is priceless. keep up with your amazing goals
en tant qu'un de tes abonnés français, je te soutiens vraiment pour l'apprentissage de ma langue !! ( as one of your french followers, i really support you for learning my language!! )
Good luck with your language learning! For 2023 I am sticking with Japanese and Spanish, with my main focus being Japanese. I really want to learn to read the basics (hiragana and katakana words/sentences) and learn some (like a 100?) kanji. Starting to review what I so far have learned of hiragana today! :)
This video is super inspiring! My target languages are spanish and korean. Setting time specific goals and being consistent have been difficult for me but I plan on being discipline this year :)
Gracias por compartir tu video. Amo el mundo de los idiomas. Le français est une langue très intéressante. Je l’adore. Meu no me é Otávio e sou Brasileiro. I am a languages lover. Thanks for sharing this content. Happy new year!
The Harry Potter thing is definitely real lol. I think it’s because everyone knows the story so well. There’s definitely some “magic” words that maybe aren’t super useful, but really the vast majority of the text in the book is “normal” vocabulary lol.
I think one reason why the Harry Potter translations are popular is because they were *professionally* translated. The author didn't decide to run everything through Google Translate and call it a day. I see this being done a lot nowadays, unfortunately. :-( It's a good resource, however, for pasting foreign-language content and hearing how Google or Bing "speaks" it. In some languages they do a good job.
@@bhutchin1996 yess that! I've also seen some vocab/grammar lessons structured around harry potter chapters (for japanese and russian), which can be very nice I imagine as you can set like smaller chunks of goals
Hey Anna! Love your channel and all of your templates. You're truly talented and have inspired me to use notion. Plus, your skillshare course is amazing in breaking it all down. Wishing you a happy new year!
Thank you so much for this video! I really like what you said about to talk to camera to practise your speaking skills. I also live in Spain and after 6 months here I can understand people and try to reply to them, but it's very basic level of spanish, only useable for daily routine conversation
11:15 I don't speak those languages but I had a similar issue some years ago. I tried learning Portuguese on Duolingo from Spanish and from English. The reason why is because courses in English on Duolingo tend to be more "complete", with more content. I just chose Spanish to learn Portuguese. Even though there are some false friends, it's easier because of the similarities between both languages. The same with French and Italian. So, I recommend that you learn Ukrainian using Russian if you can.
Just discovered your channel and I immediately subscribed, I personally find it very interesting and motivational! ❤ Great job! I'm a polyglot too and I make video stories in Italian to help people improve their Italian, I think context really help to reach fluency and the goal you mentioned is really amazing! Being able to read a whole book in Italian is definitely a great achievement.
And this is my favourite part🥰 Because I am also into languages and started my channel about my english learning journey. Btw I also speaking in Russian but it’s not priority for 2023. I want finally reach Advance level in English.
I will watch your Russian channel, actually I thought to start Russian TH-cam channel by my own because my Russian way more better than my English, but now it’s not priority so I decided to concentrate on English.
Italian is my second language, I learned it when I was a child and I hardly use it. I had a conversation in Italian with someone a few days ago and I felt a huge degradation in my ability, embarrassing. I'm going to do an intensive Italian course (course means that I am studying by myself) in the first two months of this year, starting tomorrow. Twice a week, I bought a great book. I plan to go to Italy in the spring and I want to get there with my Italian sharp.
Hey Anna! thank you very much for sharing. Your video has given more clarity to my own language goals. I'm so so happy for that. This year my focus is on improving my English and let's see if in the future I can add a new language Hope you all have a good time learning and enjoy the journey (ik sometimes is difficult but let's keep trying🤍)
I love this video!! Honestly I only plan on learning French but Anna inspires me to try to learn a lot more although I know it might now be the best idea 😂
I second the idea of reading non-fiction books instead! Most people, I think, gravitate towards fiction. Whenever you hear about reading for language learning, it's fiction... I think the main advantage, besides what you've already mentioned, is that you'll not learn the very descriptive set of adjectives/nouns that any fiction book is full of. They're cool to know, especially if you're advanced and want to read fiction, but as a language learner who has real interactions in mind you'll not only not use most of that vocab but you'll also waste a ton of time trying to decipher every such book, lol. I'm currently going through Yuval Noah Harari's books in Spanish/Swedish (I've already read Sapiens in English, and now I'm reading Homo Deus in Swedish and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century in Spanish). What I really like about his books that in addition to being really interesting, he touches on so many subjects that you'll get a wide vocabulary. I think the two books I'm reading now are far more specific (I'm about 1/6 through each of them) but in Sapiens you get everything from history to philosophy, economics, science, sociology, psychology, etc. So I can recommend those books. Another author I can recommend is Walter Isaacson, he exclusively writes biographies but the people he describes are pretty wide-ranging and he dives pretty deep into those topics, so they're a good read too! If you know what you'll be reading (especially for Spanish) in the non-fiction category please let us know ;)
I studied french for about 13 years in school BUT I never used it while speaking so I understand everthing I read / hear but I can't express myself in it. So it's my goal this year to speak french and practise it as much as possible because at the end of 2023 i'll do TCF (which is a test to know your level in french) I know Im at level B1 now but I hope I get to B2/C1 at the end of this year.
Я була дуже здивована коли побачила український прапор на головній фотографії, дивлюсь тебе вже не перший рік і мене туже тішить, що ти вирішила взятись за мою рідну мову. Хай щастить ❤️ І якщо так замислитись, то українська мало схожа на російську, відсотків на 20-30, але вона того варта)

for example, you said you bought wimpy kid book in french and maybe you can talk about that wimpy kid book in french. it's just a suggestion lol
but i loved your language goals, seriously. wish i could be this focused on the languages i want to learn lmao
Ahoj. Moc raduje to, když vidím takových lidí jako ty. Probouzíš nadšení jako říkají ostatní lidé v komentářích. Jsem Rus a můj rodný jazyk také je ruština. Udělal jsem pro sebe také jazykový plán, který v tomto roce se snažím splnit. Po 9 měsících studování češtiny znám ji poměrně dobře. Takže můj jazykový plán: nejhlavnějším cílem je zlepšení své angličtiny. Ale, pokud skončím toto rychle, tak ještě bych se naučil ukrajinštinu. Takže je to všechen můj plán. Ano, on je velmi skromný. Ale jen nedávno jsem se stál bilingvem (ruština a čeština), proto nemám moc velké cíle. Přeji vám hodně štěstí. Čau!
Hey I’m learning Russian and I find really cool your idea to do a vlog I hope you’ll have a great time learning all this languages 😊
Same I already know Spanish and I’m learning French and Italian this year the best advice for you for all three of these languages are focus on Conjugation and Grammar.
I shared my goals on my channel for my languages, or my specific goal, actually 🤓 my languages are German, French, and Russian, but a fourth one might come soon 😅 all of your language goals sound very exciting, and I wish you the very best in achieving all of your goals from this video as well from your last! 💗💗💗 if we ever meet, we can do a little language exchange in all the languages we share in common 😆
are you learning Russian language?
i will watch your videos to learn English and i already love you.
You are so inspiring! I've started learning spanish a year a go but i wasnt very motivationed. But after I found your socials I became soooo consistent with my languages goals and I got my spanish on next level
THANK YOU
I also start my portuguese lessons because Im moving to Portugal next week (and I also start my youtube channel - everything on in life just moved on and you were one of the inspirations THANK YOU AGAIN :DD)
tbh I wanna hear how u speak on these languages. Because it's really interesting to hear your accent and your successes!
you keep me so motivated to learn languages so thank you 🙏🙏 this year my focus is french (since i have my a-levels this year and i'm going to be studying french at uni), and also picking up korean and spanish! I think i'm just going to stick to the three since this year will be so busy, but i'm super excited- good luck with your language learning this year!:)
As an Ukrainian, I want to say that Russian and Ukrainian languages are COMPLETELY different. I think more you learn it, more you’ll notice.
Totally agree
Хм, вы имеете грамматику или лексику тоже? У вас немного другие буквы, слова тоже. Но когда со мной разговорила прабабушка на суржике я ее прекрасно понимала. Мне было бы интересно знать ваше мнение с украинской стороны, что именно отличается и какие детали, это интересно
@@ritassoul3516 с том-то и проблема, что на суржике. Я тоже раньше думала, что языки очень похожи, что в украинском очень много от русского. А оказалось это был только суржик. Понятное дело есть много похожих/одинаковых слов, но как показала практика русские не понимают чисто украинский, не суржик
@@korbut.anastasia мы поймем суть, но не все.
Українськи дуже цікава мова! 🙂 I studied Russian for a long time, and eventually I want to learn Polish too.
I feel you so much about being awkward with Russian since it’s supposed to be your first language!
My mother is Polish but my level in the language is at best B2. I now live in Poland as well and it is so awkward to just talk to people knowing full well I make mistakes and don’t sound like a native. I really want to focus on reaching fluency this year though so I have to get out of my comfort zone.
And I am also wanting to improve my Spanish and start Japanese. It’s going to be a busy year!
I love your videos! I'd love to see you talking about how you study, the things you do to practice when you're B2/C1, how do you study?
Just a tip for your Italian trip, if you're gonna end up living in Florence, you need to know that in Tuscany, the letter "c" is aspirated, so instead of "casa" (home), you re going to hear "hasa".
P.s. muggle in Italian is "babbano" (funny word right?).
I wish you success on your language journey 🥰
Mille grazie! I have the first two Harry Potter in books in Italian but I haven't started reading them yet. Just went to Google Translate and the stress in "babbano" falls on the penultimate: "babbáno". Italian text doesn't always tell me where the stress falls.
I’m a new subscriber and am loving these planning videos. I’m focusing on learning Spanish and German in 2023 and I may dabble a bit with Russian by learning the alphabet. Here’s to 2023 guys!!🎉
I'm bilingual and I did my family language as a gcse so don't ever worry about studying your own language, after all we all did our native language eg English every day of our schooling life
im excited for u to come to Brazil :) hope u can learn portuguese soon! u inspire me alot! ill focus on italian this year but ill take some time for spanish as well, and of course improve my english, hopefully getting to C1 in it
I love when you speak about languages! For 2023 I'm studying English, Spanish and Korean (I'm French). I hope you pick Korean again in 2024 ? Anyway happy new year Anna, lots of love 💜
ukrainian here! would be super curious to see your journey with our language
He is unpopular
I'm ukrainian. But I really speak french. And I wanna sing in spanish and english. Also, I rarely speak in this language.
@@Noname-kr1yk And what?
@@goansichishig and it’s the fact! It’s UNPOPULAR
@@BurbonUFA A-and? What you want to say with that?
omg!! I did a French study abroad at L'Alliançe Française Paris and it was phenomenal! If you are looking for a language school whilst living abroad I cannot recommend it enough mwah!
As a brazilian, I think portuguese is quite similar with italian, but far from french 😂 it’s kind hard to pronounce words in french. Words in russian looks easier for some reason, specially because of the R sounds for me
When I started learning Brazilian Portuguese, I noticed a lot of French loan words in your language: la grève > a greve, le soutien > o sutiã, le maillot > o maiô, le métro > o metrô, la boite > a boate, e outras palavras que não vêm à mente por enquanto... When learning French, one needs a lot of native audio, whether through a course like Assimil or content on TH-cam or Netflix. I started out learning French with a phrasebook with only about an hour of content on audio cassette, fita-cassete - I don't know if you remember those... - and I've been self-correcting my pronunciation ever since.
hey, Anna! :)
I just wanna thank you for being so open minded about Brazilian people and language. I don't know if you understand the importance of letting go of the stereotypes and put yourself out there to really get to know us, but it means the world to me that you do. Even nowadays, we suffer with xenofobic opinions about our country and people, and seeing someone like you, excited about our culture, is priceless. keep up with your amazing goals
en tant qu'un de tes abonnés français, je te soutiens vraiment pour l'apprentissage de ma langue !! ( as one of your french followers, i really support you for learning my language!! )
U're really a source of positivity, love ya !😔💕
Good luck with your language learning! For 2023 I am sticking with Japanese and Spanish, with my main focus being Japanese. I really want to learn to read the basics (hiragana and katakana words/sentences) and learn some (like a 100?) kanji. Starting to review what I so far have learned of hiragana today! :)
This video is super inspiring! My target languages are spanish and korean. Setting time specific goals and being consistent have been difficult for me but I plan on being discipline this year :)
Gracias por compartir tu video. Amo el mundo de los idiomas. Le français est une langue très intéressante. Je l’adore. Meu no me é Otávio e sou Brasileiro. I am a languages lover. Thanks for sharing this content. Happy new year!
i'm looking forward to more language content from you in 2023 ! my goal is to feel almost as comfortable speaking spanish as i do in english
The Harry Potter thing is definitely real lol. I think it’s because everyone knows the story so well. There’s definitely some “magic” words that maybe aren’t super useful, but really the vast majority of the text in the book is “normal” vocabulary lol.
I think one reason why the Harry Potter translations are popular is because they were *professionally* translated. The author didn't decide to run everything through Google Translate and call it a day. I see this being done a lot nowadays, unfortunately. :-( It's a good resource, however, for pasting foreign-language content and hearing how Google or Bing "speaks" it. In some languages they do a good job.
@@bhutchin1996 yess that! I've also seen some vocab/grammar lessons structured around harry potter chapters (for japanese and russian), which can be very nice I imagine as you can set like smaller chunks of goals
Hey Anna! Love your channel and all of your templates. You're truly talented and have inspired me to use notion. Plus, your skillshare course is amazing in breaking it all down. Wishing you a happy new year!
Love this video, I have a lot of language goals myself, thank you for making these videos 🙏💖
this video rlly helped me because surprisingly I am learning the EXACT same languages as you. I hope I can improve in 2023!!
Thank you so much for this video! I really like what you said about to talk to camera to practise your speaking skills. I also live in Spain and after 6 months here I can understand people and try to reply to them, but it's very basic level of spanish, only useable for daily routine conversation
11:15 I don't speak those languages but I had a similar issue some years ago. I tried learning Portuguese on Duolingo from Spanish and from English. The reason why is because courses in English on Duolingo tend to be more "complete", with more content. I just chose Spanish to learn Portuguese. Even though there are some false friends, it's easier because of the similarities between both languages. The same with French and Italian. So, I recommend that you learn Ukrainian using Russian if you can.
Anna !! Please make an anki tour as well and how to start as well . Love you and your content 💖
Just discovered your channel and I immediately subscribed, I personally find it very interesting and motivational! ❤ Great job! I'm a polyglot too and I make video stories in Italian to help people improve their Italian, I think context really help to reach fluency and the goal you mentioned is really amazing! Being able to read a whole book in Italian is definitely a great achievement.
And this is my favourite part🥰 Because I am also into languages and started my channel about my english learning journey. Btw I also speaking in Russian but it’s not priority for 2023. I want finally reach Advance level in English.
I will watch your Russian channel, actually I thought to start Russian TH-cam channel by my own because my Russian way more better than my English, but now it’s not priority so I decided to concentrate on English.
I love your videos, I'm excited to see you learning Portuguese hahaha. Happy new year from Brazil 🇧🇷
Ты супер, всё получится❤
Вау, какая же ты умная, очень вдохновляешь, учу английский 😅
i will be looking forward to all your french learning related videos!! good luck with everything
I waited to watch this series all in one sitting and. you are such an inspiration
Love your language learning goals for this year. I have some goals as well and this video helped me stay motivated. Thanks a lot!
I'm also learning french and russian this year!! lets gooo ^-^ looking forward to your videos!
I'm planning to live in Paris for the month of April and visit Florence for a few days! ☺
le français n'est pas une langue facile mais je suis sûr que tu peux réussir!! bon courage :)
С новым годом, Аня♥♥♥
Italian is my second language, I learned it when I was a child and I hardly use it. I had a conversation in Italian with someone a few days ago and I felt a huge degradation in my ability, embarrassing.
I'm going to do an intensive Italian course (course means that I am studying by myself) in the first two months of this year, starting tomorrow. Twice a week, I bought a great book. I plan to go to Italy in the spring and I want to get there with my Italian sharp.
Now from today I started to learn new language 🙃
Wow you continue to improve and don,t stop excellent feliz 2023
haha me too, im reading harry potter in french and I'm planning to read it in English next
Hey Anna! thank you very much for sharing. Your video has given more clarity to my own language goals. I'm so so happy for that.
This year my focus is on improving my English and let's see if in the future I can add a new language
Hope you all have a good time learning and enjoy the journey (ik sometimes is difficult but let's keep trying🤍)
Are you from Brasil? rsrs
I love this video!! Honestly I only plan on learning French but Anna inspires me to try to learn a lot more although I know it might now be the best idea 😂
Waiting for your Russian videos! Russian is one of the languages I'm learning this year so I'm very excited for you to do that.
I second the idea of reading non-fiction books instead! Most people, I think, gravitate towards fiction. Whenever you hear about reading for language learning, it's fiction... I think the main advantage, besides what you've already mentioned, is that you'll not learn the very descriptive set of adjectives/nouns that any fiction book is full of. They're cool to know, especially if you're advanced and want to read fiction, but as a language learner who has real interactions in mind you'll not only not use most of that vocab but you'll also waste a ton of time trying to decipher every such book, lol.
I'm currently going through Yuval Noah Harari's books in Spanish/Swedish (I've already read Sapiens in English, and now I'm reading Homo Deus in Swedish and 21 Lessons for the 21st Century in Spanish). What I really like about his books that in addition to being really interesting, he touches on so many subjects that you'll get a wide vocabulary. I think the two books I'm reading now are far more specific (I'm about 1/6 through each of them) but in Sapiens you get everything from history to philosophy, economics, science, sociology, psychology, etc. So I can recommend those books. Another author I can recommend is Walter Isaacson, he exclusively writes biographies but the people he describes are pretty wide-ranging and he dives pretty deep into those topics, so they're a good read too!
If you know what you'll be reading (especially for Spanish) in the non-fiction category please let us know ;)
I love your drive! very inspiring :)
Wow you are learning a lot 👏 thanks for the inspiration and have a great 2023🎉
I studied french for about 13 years in school BUT I never used it while speaking so I understand everthing I read / hear but I can't express myself in it. So it's my goal this year to speak french and practise it as much as possible because at the end of 2023 i'll do TCF (which is a test to know your level in french) I know Im at level B1 now but I hope I get to B2/C1 at the end of this year.
Я була дуже здивована коли побачила український прапор на головній фотографії, дивлюсь тебе вже не перший рік і мене туже тішить, що ти вирішила взятись за мою рідну мову. Хай щастить ❤️
І якщо так замислитись, то українська мало схожа на російську, відсотків на 20-30, але вона того варта)
girl please please please make a fan meeting when you come to Italy!!!!!! I'd love to come
Great video and goals! Good luck with your languages in 2023 🙂
