Hey Lingos! 

Any Spanish/French podcast recommendations? 

[introlingo-blog]

So I sat watching this beautiful viaduct in my city, I wanted to summarize my progress over the last 2-3 months, I hadn't had any summer goals, but I really kept up the good work.

Spanish

I learnt about 2200 words (obviously I don't have all of them in my active vocabulary bank, but I'm working on it)

I really improved my listening by watching movies and YouTube (my favourite channel was Enrique Alex, highly recommended)

I bought two grammar books, and I finished about 120 pages of it (I bought it about a month ago or so)

French

I finished one set of traditional flashies (about 600 of them) and I used Quizlet for vocab as well

I went to France and totally immersed myself by watching television, listening to people and so on

I learnt new grammar and saw its use in real life conversations

I also wrote a diary

English

I read 4/5 books, immersed deeply and learnt new vocab. Practised speaking as well.

Korean

I also picked up Korean and I can basically say that I'm in love with it. It's a really fresh thing, but I learnt hangeoul and some words. Also I kinda worked out a way of remembering these words better.

So yeah, that's it for now, I love productivity. Hope it could inspire you to do what you love.

잘 가요! 함내세요! Bye Lingos!

Four language learning tips for anyone! I’ve edited the template, so you might have seen these already. X More langauge learning advice on my YouTube channel

[languagessi-deactivated20210423]

I suffer from extreme social anxiety, but I'm trying to learn French. I want to be able to practice speaking, but when I try with strangers (especially online) I get panic attacks. I'm getting treatment for my anxiety, but in the mean time do you have any ideas for how I can practice with out over extending myself?

Hi! I’m sorry to hear about your situation. I hope you feel better soon! I can offer a few tips:

Talk to and have imaginary conversations with yourself 

Listen to native speakers speaking your target language (for example on the radio, tv-show, or a youtube video) and repeat what they say

Sing along to your favourite songs in your target language

Read books, articles, and other texts in your target language out loud

Instead of having real time voice chats with native speakers, try sending them voice messages (x)

Have a positive attitude, don’t give up, and be proud of your achievements big or small

I hope this helps, good luck!

That’s a question I asked myself many times. So I spent a lot of time on blogs and websites telling me that you can’t name an exactly number. Of course you can’t but I was just searching for an “around this” number. Everyone knows that there is no magical number like 1000 and then you’ll speak your target language but with 999 you wouldn’t. I just wanted “around this” numbers to be motivated, to have a goal, to have a direction I can keep in mind.  It was a pain in the ass to get an answer to this. And I want to share it with you guys, so you don’t have to waste your time on several blogs and giant textwalls to get just a little bit closer to this answer. Don’t forget these are just “around this” numbers and it’s very(!) important that you also use them and SPEAK your target language.  _______________________________________  100 most common words make up 50% of conversations.

300 most common words make up 65% of conversations.

2.000 most common words make up 90% of conversations. _______________________________________ What are the different levels of a language?

A1: 500 words A2: 1.000 words

B1: 2.000 words B2: 4.000 words

C1: 8.000 words C2: 16.000 words _______________________________________

And here a little bit detailed:

250 words - without these words, you can’t make a sentence.

750 words - is needed for everyday conversations.

2.500 words - will allow you to say most things you want, but sometimes in an awkward way.

5.000 words - is an active vocabulary of a (not high educated) native speaker.

10.000 words - is an active vocabulary of a (high educated) native speaker.

20.000 words - is needed in your passive vocabulary to fully understand work of literature by a notable author.
