Just forget it! The secret of learning new words

English Language Schools Are Evil

The New World of Language Learning

I had a short meeting with them...

We learn from the world around us

so... stay tune!

which in fact in my case...even then (incluso entonces) wasn't really the case...because as long as I relied on...school for example..for French I couldn't speak French ...to the extend I got away from the classroom I learned more ...

But...the amount of  languages the sort of   scale of language learning opportunity that we have today is so much bigger  than was the case fifty years ago..I mean there is no comparison ...When I think of how I use the internet my Ipad...You know ...different technology including Linq of course...audiobooks, E Books, ...I mean..  even so much more stuff , conversations by the internet...There is so many more reasons why today education is not the school. Education is the world  off ..acces of... means of...You know communication. MP3 files, youtube,  I mean you name it. So.. I think what's happening is..that I think..that's we are gonna experience here , that  in a way of the role of the teacher and the learner changes a bit. Learners become teachers, teachers become learners..it's ... learners learn from each other...I mean...  It's that kind of an environment. So What We are going to do  the next three months ..we are gonna work on with you on English specifically

Interview #1 with Tim Ferriss: Language Learning - Fluent in 3 months - Language Hacking and Travel Tips

Interview #1 with Tim Ferriss: Language Learning - Fluent in 3 months - Language Hacking and Travel Tips: Today I'm very happy to share an interview I did with New York Times best selling author, Tim Ferriss.

He got his fame initially for writing the 4 hour workweek, followed it up with the 4 hour body, and has just released the third in the series, the 4 hour chef.

The first book was about working well, and he inspired a lot of people to go location independent and start their own businesses after reading it (although I had been travelling for several years already myself when I first read his book), his second book was about living healthily, and to complete his healthy-wealthy-wise series, his final book is about how to learn.

Tips on Learning French

turn me on

I had a professor who turned me on to French civilization...

It tends to roll on on

The way of sound of the word  is carry It on to the next word..

These are things that you have to get used to ...


One thing I recomend insofar as pronuntiaton is concerned is to get used to xxxxx
You have to pick up xxxx

really getting into the language

I'm getting a little xxxof my self hear..

If you come out of the few words ...
Carriying on the sound

unsatisfying thing to do
There is a whole  bunches of stuff
not to mention the fact that 
so much better if you speak French
It's well worth the effort (vale la pena)
get pass it
go pass the grammar
go back in visiting grammar from time to time
Once you have some experience with the languege

The Most Effective Language Learning Method

Why and how adults can learn languages better than kids

The joy of being a linguist and the power of input

Taxonomy by Bloom

SO LET ME MAKE IT very clear..

Because they have a tendency to complicate things...

people can form their own opinion


...or turned off by what you say...

in that regard...


Because the objective, I believe as language learner ...is to get..to the real authentic meaningful text as soon as possible ...

Linguistics and Universal Grammar

...but I also like keep things simple 

The old Ockham's Razor theory 

There is an easy explanation and a complicated explanation. I prefer the easy one.  I think that language learning is just a matter of  exposing yourself  to the language 

some good stuff some bad stuff

I prefer the way we do at linq

not of this stuff really influence very much what we do at linq 

my overwhelming impression 

and stuff like that...

so..basically what I am trying to say is...I read, but I don't buy  this overcomplication 

but thereafter there is a long long road as you pick up the large number of words that make up the twenty percent ...lower frequency words 

I'm interested in learning the language from the language, and enjoy myself 

I don't need to parse 

one of the Chomsky's reasons for assuming his Universal Grammar was otherwise he said how could you explain that children learn to speak so quickly...but they don't learn to speak so quickly they spend enough of long time hearing the language even exposed to the language in the womb   so...  the star to speaking they stumble and they gradually through trial and error ...You know peack up on the pattern of the language that sorround them which could be spoken in more complete sentences, in some languages in some enviroments, or could be spoken in basic forms of communication where a lot of stuff outside the language  is understood.

parsing (análisis sintáctico)
