I finally made a language learning account ! New to #studytwt and #langtwt so going to introduce myself: -Kate - 26 years old - primary teacher in U.K. - native language 🇬🇧 - advanced languages 🇫🇷 🇪🇸 - learning 🇷🇺 🇩🇪 - want to learn in the future 🇵🇹 🇮🇹 🇨🇳 #LanguageLearning

Hi guys, Any MSA great books or other learning resources you’ve found? Thanks in advance!

Decided to learn MSA - starting with Michel Thomas combined with some classes to learn how to read/ write! Excited!! 🇦🇪 #langtwt #studytwt

@PolyglotPostman Any language we want completely new or will there be options for us to choose from?

@TimothyELDougl1 🤣🤣🤣🤣 maybe I should rephrase- which one first hahaha

@Klanguages123 All three, of course, and Czech as well 😉

What language should I learn? Recommendations please! #langtwt #LanguageLearning #newlanguage

Can any female born between 1980 and 2000 please complete my cousin’s survey? It will take 2 mins! Thanks 🙏 mmu.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5m…

#russianlearners #langtwt what would you say the trickiest grammar points are in Russian? I have a lesson next week and the teacher has asked me to come up with some grammar points I want to learn. I am intermediate level.

@carrots420 Me 👋

#langtwt where my homies learning russian?

@RoseyRambles Interesting 🧐

@Klanguages123 Active is when I’m doing nothing else. Semi-active is when I’m doing something else that takes almost no attention like walking on my treadmill. Passive is when I’m doing something else that takes away some of my attention to the point where I miss whole parts of the content.

In 14 days (not incl. today) I got just under 24 hours of active immersion. A realistic goal for me most weeks is an hour per day, so I feel really good about this. I also did Anki and Clozemaster every day and some “semi-active immersion”. #langtwt

@ccardoso_1996 Never heard of it I’ll give it a go! Thanks

#langtwt #studytwt how do you learn new vocabulary. Make lists and read them? Flashcards? Sentences?

@JillvsLangs Amazing this sounds really great so thank you for this!

@Klanguages123 But this is all just theory based on the principles I learn by, I have not personally tried this specific exam prep method since I don’t take exams, so I cannot with confidence speak for it’s effectiveness. however I think it would work 😂

@JillvsLangs Interesting. What if it’s vocab you need for exams ?

@Klanguages123 And slowly, slowly, my passive vocab grows on its own. I haven’t done any “dedicated vocab studying” in like 5 months, but my comprehension is still steadily going up week to week, month to month :) The magic of language acquisition ✨✨✨

@Myuniblr @thelangbot Oh that sounds interesting ! I’ll check it out thanks

@Klanguages123 @thelangbot A google chrome extension that shows you both subs (native languages and target language) to shows you watch on Netflix and vids on youtube! It has a lot more cool features to help you learn so I totally recommend

@___beaumonde @thelangbot Makes sense! Thanks

@Klanguages123 @thelangbot A mix of flash cards and reading. Eventually it starts sticking, but trying to force it by memorization never works well for me. It’s better if it happens naturally.

@Myuniblr @thelangbot Oh wow cool what’s a language redactor?

@Klanguages123 @thelangbot Recently, I started a new language and 90% of the vocabulary I can remember is bc of a tv show that I’ve been watching with the language reactor google chrome extension. The day I started the language is the same day I started the show

@kaixxxz_ I do this but then to memorise the new words after it that appear in books/ music / films

@RoseyRambles @LearnGreek1981 @T_L_Guy Your video was blocked :( couldn’t figure out how to watch it!

@Klanguages123 @LearnGreek1981 @T_L_Guy I usually just pick a genre and then a language and browse through the listing for titles or covers that seem interesting and then read the synopses.

Name TOP 5 apps that you can’t live without when you learn languages. (It doesn’t have to be apps that teach you languages) #langtwt

@RoseyRambles @LearnGreek1981 @T_L_Guy Oh wow fab! Do you search the book name in the language then? Or just eg Harry Potter Spanish

@Klanguages123 @LearnGreek1981 @T_L_Guy I’m learning Spanish and they just happen to have a ton of books in Spanish. I own about 20 Spanish audiobooks (including all 7 Harry Potter). They do have many in other languages too though. I own Harry Potter in Japanese and German as well, among other books.
