This is so cool - I definitely feel so fueled to start learning languages now! I've grown up speaking both English and Chinese, and then I've been taking both Latin and Japanese for the past three years - it's so exciting, and such a fun experience! I look forward to talking to different people and different cultures!
What is instantly evident in this piece is Tim's passion for the adventure. His fearless desire to use what he acquires from the start should serve as an inspiration to everyone. Like all successful people in the language acquisition community he immerses himself in the language, fails constantly and enjoys this and constantly pushes himself to learn. Consistent hard work, a recognition that failure is normal and a love of learning personified. Bravo!
I talk to myself in the language when I drive sometimes. I also do it purposefully when I take walks and hikes by myself. Hiking is the least humiliating because I can be off in the woods where hardly anyone ever sees or hears me. I bring a pocket dictionary, pocket topical vocabulary book in the language, pocket notebook, and a pen so I can occasionally stop, look up words, and write them down. If I'm proficient enough, I'll bring some very short reading material in the language--either photocopied or on my phone--and talk to myself about what I read. Of course, I don't have any of those tools available while driving. In this way, my speaking ability advances faster than listening comprehension.
Finally someone who sees the benefits of Pimsleur. It's not for everyone I know, but it helps with speaking a lot. The big drawback is reading. I used Pimsleur for Korean and can speak pretty well for a beginner but my spelling is terrible. Talking with a Korean would be easier than in writing, whereas with Japanese, which I learned in a more traditional way, I'm probably more comfortable in writing than speaking. Like Tim said I think it's good to use a combination of different methods.
My native language is danish but beside that I speak english and german fluent, plus a lot of hebrew! I like these techniques and I'm sure they will help me a lot in the furture, so thank you very much!
Well, I'm not a super polyglot like you guys, but I actually speak 4 languages: my native language which is Brazilian Portuguese, English, French and some Italian (not as fluent as I wish I were but anyway). I don't know how you feel about it but sometimes I feel like I tend to express a different part of my personality in each different language. I know that I come across as an average Joe in my native language. In French I get super shy, and in order to compensate for that I go out of my way trying to be nice to people around me. In English I actually sound cocky and arrogant which I find odd because that's not me (at least in other languages). I simply can't help it. In Italian I'm a little more expressive (you know the drill - louder and with more hand movements which I know is pretty chiche).
JD Davidson I give a lot of credit to native Spanish speakers who embark on the journey of learning Portuguese. I actually can't speak Spanish - I tried it but it simply never works (I always end up speaking a kind of horrible Portugnol, if you will). I can understand most of what an anchor says on CNN en espagnol, but if Spanish speakers say things faster than that I have a lot of trouble understanding what they say. Kudos to all Spanish speakers out there.
You should hear the video where Tim speaks Hindi. His voice and facial expressions are so different that he seems like a totally different person.

I couldn't agree more! There are things I say in English that I just don't feel confident saying in Spanish (my native language). When I speak English, people listen to me more and I suddenly get this very obvious drunk-like enthusiasm. :)
Tim and luca so awesome you guys are the best. I was just in NYC and really the language possibilities are endless there...I am still fortunate to live in an area(Boston) where there are still almost as many different languages spoken daily...it's really beneficial and a motivation booster I think
merci pour cet interview, j'ai hâte d'entendre le prochain en plusieurs langues ! Quelques questions que je trouve intéressantes : - comment faites-vous (tous les deux !) pour "switcher" entre les langues, passer d'une langue à l'autre sans peine et sans mélanger les différentes langues ? - comment est-ce que les langues modifient la façon de voir le monde, voire même la manière de penser ? merci ! -
Many times i was caught speaking to my self by my mother (not in the shower of course)but in my room at night shortly after going to bed i would do it on a daily basis wheter. I would work or i would be off the next day i would talk to my self in french, portuguese,or even italian that i began speaking in it since 41 yrs ago in the mid 70s my mother would be telling me that iwas crazy &that i was really abusing of my energy because i was still young back then, but then she realized later on that the sacrifice of talking to myself in the darkness of my room paid off yrs later it was my only exposure to the language back then yrs later i was lucky to being exposed to different people from all over the globe when i work as a waiter & in housekeeping in big hotels on the strip in las vegas actually sonce april 2018 i retired & have all day to study other languages,but the exposure to languages is very limited nowadays because i live in el paso texas &it's not a cosmopolitan city like New york L.A or Vegas but of course exposure to the language it's extremely important for anyone who is passionate about. Languages!!!
Extremely targeted questions and very informative answers! You guys really did an amazing job! Thank you so much for sharing all this with us and keep up the good job!
look up a video called " american polyglot practices 20 languages" in which he speaks many at different levels, including french afrikaans arabic housa hindi persian chinese russian etc... and his youtube channel is called polyglot pal i believe ;)
Thankyou God! because I learn Inglish and Spanish, during the pandemic, I mean, learn languages change my life! and now I could see and listen contents like this, next level, learning Spanish and russian in this year!
Did you ever start with russian? I am interested to hear how it has been going so far!:) I too want to start learning russian but its a big and scary move.
@@Patrizio99 i stopped studying russian because i realized I wouldn't use that much this language in my life, so i switched from russian to french. I was learning well, a tip for those who are learning Russian is to focus on speaking and understanding, and leave writing and reading for after you get a good level of understanding
Hello! This is some great advice, I'm currently learning Mandarin and Modern Standard Arabic, and French is just in my everyday life, but I just have a question about foreign languages that use different alphabets.. Is it better to learn the 'characters' from the beginning or use the romanized version of their alphabet? In Arabic, I'm sticking to the romanized until I get more comfortable with the language. Is this a logical approach? I'm also only using Teach Yourself, songs,news,books etc. :)
Michel Thomas, Rosetta Stone, Assimil. These are really good. There are other ressources that are exclusive to specific languages. I really like "Active Chinese" for Mandarin, for example. Also "Bueno Entonces" is a great ressource for Spanish.
Haha glad to hear I'm the only one - when I learned French I would speak alone day and night (walking home from class, in my bed, shower, etc). Despite it sounding weird, it really helped me to be able to talk 'smoothly' and get in the habit of the language.
How long does it take to learn a foreign language? What languages do you know? What was your hardest foreign language to learn? What do you suggest as a first foreign language for a native English speaker? Those are my questions for the next video. And that was a very nice video.
Here are my questions: What are your opinions about studying more than one language at a time? Do you percieve language learning as an academic process or more like learning an art form? What are some of the qualities you need to be a successfull language learner? Thanks! And p.s great video :)
What's important to talk about is how to get proper exposure to different languages. For example, Tim mentions Ojibwe, I assume he had rather a hard time trying to get good practice in it. In any case, there's also a lot of crap out there when it comes to language learning and it's hard to find stuff that's really helpful. I like to find good audio for fluency, occasionally find some good stuff but even just the search for resources is enough to crush your motivation entirely.
Your right, in fact Im FARRR from fluency, except for Spanish, and Chinese. Many of the languages Im studying, I dont have a lot of resources for them. So sedly, I wont ever be fluent in all of these languages. But i can communicate at a basic level in the languages. This guy i met, He was FLUENT in 67 languages, at that time I was only learning 23 languages. But he told me to beat his record.
Hi Andafaith! What if you practice shadowing? You may take an Assimil book and read along trying to read always right after the speaker! I'm sure it'll help you, if you do it everyday, one lesson per day, for at least one month! Of course Luca is going to give much better tips for he has more experience than me! Good luck!
Hi!!! Whoa I really love this interview!!! Thanks for sharing it with averyone!!! It would be nice to meet you some day, I am also a polyglot and it´s always so nice to come across people who share your hobby!!! I am currently learning chinese and I would like to start with wolof or bangla, since I am living in a neighbourhood in Madrid where half or the people are these two nationalities, but I haven´t found anything interesting so far...
hi! I speak a few languages (learning them in class at uni and abroad and from my family), but I'm trying to teach myself some outside of school.... because I want to learn more, any advice on good books to use to start learning other languages?
It seems that luca's favourite frase is "as far as I'm concerned"(who watching all his videos will understand me). But you guys, both of you actually very and very cool. Keep doing inspirational videos for us.(Maybe we all will be your teachers in the near future(joke))
Awesome video! I would like to know what your friends at school think about your passion for languages, and if any of them has the same kind of passion.
Interesting video. You both mentioned talking to yourselves as a way to practice. What do you do to avoid practicing mistakes and developing bad habits? I developed a few bad habits while chatting with non-native speakers that, years later, I still have difficulty breaking.
For either one of you - do you have a lifetime goal? More specifically, I'm interested in how many languages you will eventually be able to speak at a high level (say C1/C2) on a given day in your future.
I forgot the "Starting out in ..." series by Living Languages which is noteworthy. And also Pimsleur, which I used briefly but which seemed quite good.
Believe it or not but I speak 37 languages!! You dont have to believe me but I do. I think its about 40 languages now because I made that count 2 years ago.
Interesantísimo! :D Ho qualche domande.. How do you deal with language plateaus? How do you know when it's right to move onto learning another language? allez, merci! keep the vids coming!
wow awesome. my question would be, should I force myself to do exercises? I myself and many may not enjoy it, but is it something in your experiences that would accelerate the goal of speaking the language fluently. thank you!
Excellent tips! I use many of these techniques in studying languages as well. I've a hard time finding languages that suit me though. I speak different levels of French, German, and Russian, and I've found that the accent of my more-established foreign languages seep into other lesser-established languages. For example, I tend to accidentally speak German with a very Russian/American accent at times. It's hard to break. Do you have this type of issue? Also, how do you avoid this issue?
Also, to learn a language, let say portuguese, do we better to go over and live there. What should I do if not live there, I mean if you learn portuguese in the school but speak english in the rest of the time in day life?
If you're doing Assimil as the instructions suggest, you should be on lesson 90 after three months of studying. I say don't ditch the book, finish it, but also do real content on the side.
Luca , I was wondering in your opinion what is the best way to improve listening skills to interrupt what is being said in a foreign language? Like , I find it easy to understand you're Italian when you speak to Richard/Steve but if it is two natives (on the radio) they speak so fast it is hard to interrupt i just catch some words but when i slow it down i had understood all the words but at normal speed it's hard to "get" all the words and even then interrupt before next sentence! Thanks!
Is assimil better than other language books? I found with pimsleur I am just parroting phrases, but Micheal Thomas Method was useful for grammar. Most books I find are geared towards traveling which is not great. I learn some vocabulary through music, but its mostly love songs.
hy could you just list the sources for learning foreign languages cause I didn't get them out of the conversation ? You mentioned some Internet sites or some books ?
I love finnish and I want to learn it, but some people have said to me that I could learn three diferent languages instead of finnish because is very hard to learn, Is it true?. What do you recommend me, should I learn the language that I love or a three others that I like?
When talking about methods they mention Pimsleur, Teach Yourself, and something else that I didn't get. To me it sounded like "asimo." Anybody know what it is?
Hi, can you give me some tips or techs for learning Portuguese, I always want to learn this language but, what I do is buying some portuguese book with english try to find some common spelling word to motorise, but it dont seems work very well on me, wish if you can guide me out of this problem. Many thanks ^^
Can anybody help me figure out what language learning program they love? Asimo? Asamo? I cant seem to find anything on it can somebody link me to somewhere with info on this?.

The amount of times I waste just watching videos like this, when really I should just be actually getting up and doing it! Know what I mean?
Building motivation is a good thing :)
You have to take breaks. I watch this stuff to learn new methods.
This is so cool - I definitely feel so fueled to start learning languages now! I've grown up speaking both English and Chinese, and then I've been taking both Latin and Japanese for the past three years - it's so exciting, and such a fun experience!

Good luck man! I grew up speaking English and Italian, I take chinese in school, but I really want to learn Russian.

I talk to myself a lot. Sometimes I will have each "Character" have their own language.
I talk to myself in the language when I drive sometimes. I also do it purposefully when I take walks and hikes by myself. Hiking is the least humiliating because I can be off in the woods where hardly anyone ever sees or hears me.

Not going to lie..I talk to myself in the shower all the time to practice German, haha
Ellie W I should do it too..
@Jose Antonio Sanchez bruh whatt
😹😹😹😹
It's an amazing way to practice continuously!
Finally someone who sees the benefits of Pimsleur. It's not for everyone I know, but it helps with speaking a lot. The big drawback is reading.

Pimsleur works.
Thank you!! Right now, Im trying to improve my Thai & Vietnamese.
I relate well to Tim as far as grammar.
Grammar is like a code, indeed.
Thanks a lot!
I reckon you'd both find Welsh very interesting... Also very beautiful sound, it would be good to try a Celtic language as well.
I loved the suggestion about talking to yourself. Great video!

He must have a very good memory. I use similar methods but I struggle to remember words, it takes me ages just to remember basic verbs.
My memory is like everyone else's. Memory is a muscle that you need to learn to train, and train well. You can do it!
@@LucaLampariello Thanks. That’s reassuring.

This interview is really great though I have some difficulties to hear this because I study English now:(
Luca are you going to learn more languages ? :-) How many languages do you speak? You are awesome man
Interesantísimo! :D Ho qualche domande.. How do you deal with language plateaus? How do you know when it's right to move onto learning another language? allez, merci! keep the vids coming!
Luca has an obsession with the phrase "as far as _____ concerned" :)) awesome interview.
wow awesome. my question would be, should I force myself to do exercises? I myself and many may not enjoy it, but is it something in your experiences that would accelerate the goal of speaking the language fluently. thank you!
hi luca why don't you come in Alto Adige, I am teacher you could speak to my students who are Germans.. I'm Italian by the way
Excellent tips! I use many of these techniques in studying languages as well. I've a hard time finding languages that suit me though. I speak different levels of French, German, and Russian, and I've found that the accent of my more-established foreign languages seep into other lesser-established languages. For example, I tend to accidentally speak German with a very Russian/American accent at times. It's hard to break. Do you have this type of issue? Also, how do you avoid this issue?
Hey, Luca. Have you ever given much thought to learning a Celtic language? Like Welsh, Cornish, Breton, Manx, Scottish Gaelic or Irish?
hahaha I talk to myself in English ! ( I am Polish and this is my native language)
Luca, il tuo accento e molto, molto tenue in inglese. Way to go man! (I'm American, by the way.)
It's great, Luca. ;)
17:00 Internal monologue, nice trick.
Incroyable!!!
you could say that again
What's your thought on the program, "Living Language"? They had a deal for beginner to advanced for 60$, so I got it for German.
Also, to learn a language, let say portuguese, do we better to go over and live there. What should I do if not live there, I mean if you learn portuguese in the school but speak english in the rest of the time in day life?
If you're doing Assimil as the instructions suggest, you should be on lesson 90 after three months of studying. I say don't ditch the book, finish it, but also do real content on the side.
Luca , I was wondering in your opinion what is the best way to improve listening skills to interrupt what is being said in a foreign language? Like , I find it easy to understand you're Italian when you speak to Richard/Steve but if it is two natives (on the radio) they speak so fast it is hard to interrupt i just catch some words but when i slow it down i had understood all the words but at normal speed it's hard to "get" all the words and even then interrupt before next sentence! Thanks!
Can you make a video about the difference between Assimil and Teach Yourself?
In which case I should use what programme?
Is assimil better than other language books? I found with pimsleur I am just parroting phrases, but Micheal Thomas Method was useful for grammar. Most books I find are geared towards traveling which is not great. I learn some vocabulary through music, but its mostly love songs.
hy could you just list the sources for learning foreign languages cause I didn't get them out of the conversation ? You mentioned some Internet sites or some books ?
Could someone summarise the secrets please. thanks
I love finnish and I want to learn it, but some people have said to me that I could learn three diferent languages instead of finnish because is very hard to learn, Is it true?. What do you recommend me, should I learn the language that I love or a three others that I like?
So cool...
When talking about methods they mention Pimsleur, Teach Yourself, and something else that I didn't get. To me it sounded like "asimo." Anybody know what it is?
I speak English which is my mother tongue Portuguese Spanish Italian and learning Hebrew tried to learn French but it is too hard for me.
How is french hard when you already know portuguese,italian,spanish?
So as a quick question, is the Pimsleur Approach a good way to start learning a language? :)
Hi, can you give me some tips or techs for learning Portuguese, I always want to learn this language but, what I do is buying some portuguese book with english try to find some common spelling word to motorise, but it dont seems work very well on me, wish if you can guide me out of this problem. Many thanks ^^
When he talked about "fake conversations" that he has with himself... I thought that was only me.
Please, explain me what they are talking about Luca's method which is popular in Europe? I didn't get what is it
Nice fotos!
u want me to list them??
On the materials, two big ones are mentioned. Pimsleur I know, what is the other one? I can't seem to find it.
It's Assimil.
niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!
make a video proving it
Hi im arjun and i want to learn hindi and arabic. can anyone help me with some courses i can take?
你们有些本书为学汉子吗？
I believe it's spelled assimil :)
