Top 10 Ways to Learn a Language

Top 10 Tricks to Learn Language 

1. Your reason to learn better be good!

Why learn a language? Have a reason? You better have one and a very good one that you can commit to! This might sound obvious, but if you don’t have a good reason to learn a foreign language, you are less likely to stay motivated for long.

 2. Double up the Fun!

Healthy competition is good for your learning.  Yes! find yourself a partner to join you in the language learning adventure.  So that when you feel de-motivated, your ‘friendly competition’ rekindles your enthusiasm and vice versa!

3.  Talk to Yourself.

Sounds weird? But it’s not!  Help yourself master the target language.
“speaking to oneself in a language is a great way to practice if you’re not able to use it all the time.” This technique will help keep words and phrases fresh in your mind and build up your confidence for the next time you speak with someone.

4. Your goal is to Converse in the target language.

Remember, make conversation your goal from the very beginning. This way you will be less likely to get lost in the textbooks and speak to people. This process will keep the learning relevant.

5. Have fun learning.

Get creative while you are learning one target language. Figure out some fun and interesting ways to practice your new language. A play with a friend or a poem, or simply talk to whomever you can. If you are not having fun learning, then remember, your ultimate goal is to make conversations.

6. “Stay Foolish, Stay Hungry”!

This magical four word phrase is your ultimate friend! Be curious and try to learn. We learn by making mistakes.  If you believe you are some “Know it all” it won’t help. While learning a language, admitting that you don’t know everything, is essential for growth and freedom.

7. Get out of your Comfort Zone.

Willingness to make mistakes and being ready to put oneself in embarrassing situations might sound strange but is the only way to grow, develop and improve. No matter how much you learn, you won’t ever be able to speak a language without putting yourself out there and get the feel of it.

8. Listen!

Listening is a lost art. Revive the art in yourself and speed up your learning process. So, listen before you can speak. Every language has a peculiar sound the first time you hear it. But trust us, the more you expose yourself to the sounds, the more familiar it becomes and the easier it is for you to speak the language fluently.

9. Watch and Mark

Pronunciation is just as much physical as it is mental cuz different languages make different demands on your tongue, lips and throat. So it’ll be really useful if you watch and mark the native speakers speak and converse and then try to imitate the sound as much as possible. A good substitute can be watching movies and songs.

10. Get drenched in the culture!

So you’ve made the pledge to learn a language. Irrespective to what learning tools you incorporate, it’s crucial to practice the new language every single day. Get yourself immersed in the culture right from the start! As the learning progresses try to think in it, write in it, speak in it. Surrounding and submerging yourself in the new language culture is extremely important to be competent in any language.

Never forget, the best possible outcome of speaking a new language is when people speak back to you!
