"Learn a language without ever leaving the house" now you're speaking my language lol
You stepped up your game with this video! The editing and the camerawork is amazing 🧡
Thank you so much!! It really means a lot because I tried very hard 🥺🥺
@@LindieBotes u are the best
@@LindieBotes
And we love what you came out with! I can actually speak some german
the creating another channel for the target language.... is actually pretty smart.
I agree!! I just created one.
I'm going to do it right now ahahah. That is indeed simple but lowkey genius tip
I made one for Spanish a year and a half into studying it
I was going to make one for Korean, but couldn’t think of a nice enough channel name, so I just used this main channel account
It sounds all good, but you have to be careful because good ol’ YT WILL recommend you non-target language stuff and if your will power is low, well you’re going to destroy your feed. Happened to my Spanish account after a month. I can only click “do not recommend” so many times… Best bet is to just sub to channels and stay in your subs feed. And have strong will power if you venture into the main feed
7:10 Lindie throwing shade at people who don't take their shoes off inside 😂
I've lived in Asia for too long lol
Please create a video specifically about AI and how you use it for language learning!🤩 I have never used ChatGPT so a more thorough explanation, specific prompts you use etc and tips on how it works would be so appreciated!
I personally use ChatGPT to create stories in my target languages. If I'm a beginner or I want to learn about a specific topic/vocabulary, I can say something like "give me a story in korean with basic vocabulary related to cooking and food. Make it funny and short." and boom, you get to practice your korean for free.
Of course, there are many other possibilities and you can play around.
Thanks for sharing! I may give it a try!

Not me wanting to restart my Korean language journey and seeing this video!! Lindie, you're amazing. :)
Same! I wanna start learning Thai again because of this video 😂❤
Same!
Great tips as always Lindie!! Also on top of online tutors it's possible to take full online classes while staying home. I have taken 1,000 hours of Korean classes 🇰🇷 from total beginner to advanced of which the majority were online and therefore accessible to people who do not live in Korea or big cities where in person classes are available. It can be cheaper and more social than one-on-one and I have made close friends from the courses. We are so lucky these days to have tech helping us! ^^
Lindie, you're such a big inspiration! I'm happy and thankful that you continued to create content for us!
These are really awesome tips! Whenever I start, I always do the same type of studying (flashcards, apps) with no variety, so this is so great!
Missed your videos, Lindie! Lately been feeling pretty introverted and lazy, so good timing ☺
Loved the mood and colors of this video :) such a lovely apartment and great editing
Thank you so much!!
I made some progress learning Vietnamese with Immersive Translate, a browser extension. I love how user-friendly it is, and I even use to translate all my webpages and documents as well as do some language learning.
I love how you film this Lindie, not to put pressure on you, but it just felt like I’m very serene and I wonder if that’s something you could explore like serenity and com vibe with your language videos.
I loved this video ❤ great tips and great editing ;)
Thank you for the amazing tips! 😃
Ohhhh need to hear more details about AI! How did you upload the article? Actually would be great to see a video with the prompts you use amd a closer look at the process. I'm learning Egyptian Arabic and I feel this will be really helpful. ❤
These tips are a goldmine for English learners! Practical and insightful advice that can really make a difference in improving language skills. Thanks for sharing such valuable content!
Those totally what I ve been doing ! Write English journal everyday, immerse myself by watching videos , use AI to help me practice. I love your “introvert tips” ❤
God bless you Lindie. Your videos are very inspiring and realistic, I appreciate your effort :)
This video is *really* well-done! Also (as always) useful and informative... I've been avoiding AI for some reason, but now I see I need to check it out. :-)
OMG she's awesome!!!!!! I REALLY ADMIRE YOU LINDIE!!!
You are so relatable ❤
The TH-cam immersion works!
Wow, you learned Thai language.
Thank you for your techniques, I try to improve my English now
I very appreciate to hear you are learning Thai and I'm here to learn English from you
Thank you for the video and the tipps! Can you please film a video where you give examples on how to use AI for language learning? Just like how you did in the part of this video. Maybe any other tipps on how you use it and how to do it effectively for learning foreign languages
Sure, I will try do that. For now, I have an Instagram short where I go in detail here: instagram.com/p/C22H3TpITPj/
@@LindieBotes thank you 🥰
Depression has been hitting me hard lately, so I've been doing a lot of not studying, haha. I've gotten a little more back into listening and reading, I'm just doing baby steps for now. I appreciate the advice for us homebodies though :) Also, I did spy you showing off the book 30代にしておきたい17のこと, is it any good? Looks interesting :) Always love your videos, cheers!
AI just makes me so... nervous. 😣 I know it's more or less the future, but still... I didn't think about making a spreadsheet for my French verbs, so I definitely think I'll get started on that. Great tips as always and you're NOT lazy--resting is great for the soul. And God told us to rest so... 😆
I have fibromyalgia and Chronic fatigue. I had been having a pretty good few months, and sometimes I convince myself that I don't have it as bad, or I've conquered it... and then a bad flare up happens. I've been laid up for a week, because I walked slightly too much. So, I've been binge watching shows in Chinese. It's helped me feel like I'm not too far behind. I've been using Gemini a lot to make comprehensible input and read stories that are relatively easy for me with a couple new words. Focus is on fun while I'm in too much pain to do the harder stuff. Luckily, my flare ups have been relatively gentle most of the last year since I've started studying Chinese. The great thing about languages is you can lay down to study them on your own.
I'm not usually a fan of podcasts, btu because this flare up has been so brutal, I started listening to them.
This video was great timing for me to see someone going through something similar. Thank you!
Oh man I’m sorry, it’s really tough. Some days are better than others. I hope you get more good days 💕 glad to see you’re enjoying using Gemini!
I have POTS! Our illnesses are cousins lol 🩵
Wow. I have also Chronic Fatigue and wanted to learn a language
What. a. game-changer! I absolutely LOVE that you can use Gemini for free to export the chart into sheets! Do you have a platform where you share your prompting method? :)
Gracias por tus consejos... Eres Increíble!!!! Saludos y abrazos!!!! Que te vaya Muy Bien!!!😊
I am also a sofa at home learner type, always was. I like the video.
Sofa learners unite!
This video is very helpful
Hungarian! Jó nehéz nyelvet választottál! Hajrá! 🎉😎
정말 대단하네요! 많은 도움 받습니다.
Húha sok sikert a magyar tanuláshoz. Sokan mondják hogy nehéz nyelv (én sajnos nem tudom mivel az anyanyelvem így nem tűnik annak). Remélem azért értetted amit írok haha
Bravo Lindie! I love English or American for its funkyness and breaking the ice conversation when possible but it is very limited to express deep feelings and emotions plus is not always a diplomatic card according where you are in the world.
Ma langue maternelle est le français, mais je parle également couramment l'anglais et l'américain (j'ai vécu plus de 12 ans aux États-Unis et 22 ans au Royaume-Uni, et toute ma famille est anglaise) et de l'espagnol Mexican vers B1...
L'anglais est une bonne langue à connaître, mais pas assez pour ouvrir immédiatement les portes commerciales/éducatives/culturelles/artisanales aux pays qui ne parlent pas l'anglais comme première ou deuxième langue officielle. Outre le Brexit en Grande-Bretagne et la présence de nombreux Trumpistes radicaux en Amérique, les gens utilisent de plus en plus l'anglais par mérite et non comme un reflet aveugle des années 90. De plus, l'anglais est assez limitée dans l'expression de certaines émotions ou sentiments, également pour le débat en soi, l'anglais ne va pas loin, le français dur par contre, le fait.
Bien sûr, ayant vécu aux États-Unis pendant plus d'une décennie, j'aime Sesame Street, PBS, les diners, les techniques positives américaines, les formes américaines de défense juridique, etc... et plus de deux décennies en Angleterre, Sherlock Holmes, Poirot, la charité pour les animaux. à la manière britannique, la loi commune anglaise... mais une chose n'est pas l'autre.
BUT HERE ARE THE NEWS this month of May 2024: I decided to CONTINUE ITALIAN (your video here is part of it but I have seen three others underlining how fascinating it can be). I ADORE because of its melodic singing tones, hand gestures, opera, and antiquity! And the food!
Certo, essere francese mi aiuterà ad imparare l'italiano, ma solo per alcune basi, dato che la pronuncia come e la coniugazione quanto sono molto diverse! Se a questo si aggiungono le espressioni idiomatiche e le frasi colloquiali italiane, per parlarlo correttamente ci vorrà tempo e voglia.
Quindi, sono in francese, americano, inglese, quasi intermedio in spagnolo latino-americano, ma parlo correntemente italiano e un po' di latino e per rinfrescare un po' di alsaziano. E in tutto questo mi atterrò ad esso. Quindi, l'Italina t è a pieno regime per ora!
Thank you so much for having been a HUGE inspiration for me to reconnect correctly to language power! And THIS time, I am going to enjoy Italian also, as much, for its phonetic pleasure and new thinking! Also...still... it is the 4th most studied language in the world and even Italians are shocked about this. Et pour me détendre aussi, je vais faire pour m'amuser un peu de cours de langue Choctaw (Chahta anumpa) pour ses sons relaxants et uniques. Et j'en reste là.
Merci de m'avoir énormément inspiré pour réapprendre le pouvoir et l'utilité des langues!
Unless it’s English, Spanish, or French, I would not trust chatGPT I decided to toy around with it with Chinese and it produced a lot of incorrect grammar and the sentences were unnatural. Especially if the language isn’t often used online, like Hawaiian, I just really wouldn’t recommend it.
Fr it felt like i was teaching the AI Polish
I use a translator, but I cannot learn English. I understand most of the words and I did many things to learn, but to no avail. Do you have any tips for books to read or things to learn quickly? Thank you.
i read your article in medium about deleting social media I also stuck in the social media and I don't know what can I do and I just compare my self with others and numb my mind
I don't leave my house and as long as I have an internet connection, everything's fine.🙂
Girl can i ask, which headphones do you use??
Lindie full on fixing her hair mid explanation without skipping a beat. 😁 Always great tips Lindie. 👍🏽
6:36 when you said change your device into that language, do you mean certain apps or just the whole device in general?
In general, but you can start with apps if you want to go at it slowly
@@LindieBotes ok, thanks for the reply!
So how many languages do you know ? Secondly based on what you said is it possible with those method to go to a country target language and converse easily ?! So im learning mandarin from scratch, i bought couple mandarin books, booked tutors, applied for mandarin courses at the university .....main language here is french, English and Spanish which i speak as well . But i had a foundation based off of my french. How easily will i be able to become fluent in mandarin?! Thanks for your content 😊
Do you plan to make JLPT N2 or N1 in the future?
Can you make a video about Chinese please?
Do u have any recommendations for Japanese and Korean?
What type of recommendations? Resources or study tips? You can find both at www.lindiebotes.com, I hope it helps!
@@LindieBotes both, grammar for japanese and grammar and vocabulary for Korean
Whats the music in this video? Thanks!
In the description!
I’m finding, apart from other difficulties, that my brain - and mouth - cannot sync up with each other quick enough to both THINK and ARTICULATE in Japanese. I get exhausted after just trying to string together 2 sentences 😢
how did you have "export sheets" button ?
It’s only on tables on Gemini, not GPT
@@LindieBotes thank sister
If I were to do squats while brushing my teeth, I'd probably choke on the paste but I get the spirit
I tried to create a profile on youtube to see content only in german and another one to see content only in English but the app still showme things in Spanish... I don't know how to avoid this
Just click the not interested button. It’s in the three dots next to the video :)
I daily use ChatGPT to talk to just to practice my speaking skill...😂
Hello
OMG!!!! My friend Letícia appeared at minute 2:46 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
I wants Korean languages learning full guide
I already have many videos about learning Korean on my channel 😊
Hey Lindie, just wanted to leave you a resource here in case you have not heard of it since I know you read the Bible in Japanese (and in case other people are interested): A few years ago, a company made a Japanese Drama Bible app called 聴くドラマ聖書「きくドラマせいしょ」. It's the 新改訳「しんかいやく」聖書「せいしょ」2017 version of the Bible with voice over from a lot of famous Japanese voice actors. The text has furigana and everything and it's much easier to read than a compact Japanese Bible. It's available on apple and android devices for free. The VA for Paul makes me laugh every time he says 兄弟たち xD
Question : What does she mean by "Creating a all new TH-cam profile". Is that possible to have multiple profiles with the same Google account? Or is she just suggesting to create a new account, with a new address, that is, paying for another YT Premium subscription if you want to avoid spending 15 minutes every hour skipping adds?
I was today years old when I discovered that you can create multiple channels on the same account, each one of them with their own settings, name, language, subscribed channels, search history, etc. Thanks for the tip Lindie. Having a YT account with mixed subscriptions in 5 different languages, this is defo a game changer for me
You can create another channel from the same gmail. I created one for my German studies and I only pay for one. It’s a channel and not a new account :)
@@MandyCaputooh I just saw this comment and I realised that my response was a bit late and you already figured it out hahaha sorry
Can you recommend some hungarian youtuber or podcasts this is not especially for learners for a upper intermediate learner
As a Christian, have you noticed any impact language-learning has had on your faith life? Or do you incorporate it into prayer at all? If you’d be interested, I’d love to hear more about how you combine the two🎉
I love this! I have different levels of fluency in diff languages & challenge myself to hear from God’s people in/from nations I want to serve
For example, I’m more fluent in Spanish so I read the verse of the day, pray, worship, Bible study & text Christian friends in Mexico in Spanish
But for languages I’m a beginner in, I’ll listen to worship music passive/actively, find mission vlogs to learn the culture, & memorize the Lord’s Prayer or a popular verse in that language.
if I have access to native speakers, I try to attend a service or ask them to pray for me in that language 💖✨
God bless you!
@@kaylilanihey! I’m learning German and just want to ask, how did you find groups for that? I want to find in German too ❤
Video summary: If you don't want to leave your house for learning a new language - use internet.
I really don't want to make any diagnosis or anything but chronic fatigue and introvert, never wanting to leave the house sounds like I used to be before I got treated for my ADHD.
I do have many of the symptoms but have not professionally been diagnosed with ADHD (yet?). Many other diagnoses though. Oh well...
I also had many diagnoses including Bipolar disorder. This then turned out to be my untreated ADHD. That was also why medication never helped because I was simply treated for the wrong thing.@@LindieBotes
Is AI really that helpful? I'm always worried about its faults and hallucination. Some languages that are not super present on the internet may make your experience worse.
I tried it with Italian and after only five minutes ChatGPT made a huge error in a simple verb conjugation...
Is this a re-upload 😮
I had an issue with the previous one :)
@@LindieBotes ohh okay haha!☺️🙌🏾
I wouldn't trust ChatGPT with languages; I've seen the garbage it comes up with when asked to translate simple sentences into Lojban. I would trust it only to identify a cat fart. :)
I share your opinion. Once I tried to generate some grammar tables with ChatGPT and it was full of mistakes. These tools are getting better and better for sure, I'm just still not sure if it's already good enough to generate trustable grammatic content. Like in this video, most of the example sentences in Hungarian are correct but at least one of them is garbage.
IMO chat gpt 4 which is 20 usd a month is extremely good and not the free version
They got scared out of it and got ripped off by culture vulture (discouragment).
Is an introvert. Makes TH-cam vids.
Cause I talk to a camera in my house and not real people outside 😜
Introvert doesn't mean you can't speak? 😂
@@LindieBotesI know the feeling myself. It took quite a while to overcome my social anxiety
It sounds weird, but for some people making TH-cam videos is easier than talking to people in real life. Just like a lot of teachers are introverted except when they’re in the classroom. I would be terrified to make TH-cam videos even though talking in real life is not quite as big of a deal for me. I have great respect for Lindie and admire her commitment to her faith.
The head of your bed looks like fingers, just saying
Learning another language with AI support is a great study tip! Has anyone here used AI to study English?
