Lovely Little Beach of Baia Azzurra Is Mortorius ~ 1 January 2017 | Travelling in Sardinia
Anngyonghaseyo yorobun, Jorlenise ibnidang here. Welcome Back! I am so thankful that
you guys have been watching my videos. Thank you very much! Thank you for liking, thank
you for subscribing! Also, thank you all of you guys on HelloTalk who have been asking
me great questions and worry I will try to put out a video answering those questions.
Thank you again, thank you so much. I hope you enjoy this video! SO today, I will be
giving you guys 5 tips on how to learn English or any other language that you want to use
these tips for. Honestly you can use these tips for any language these are some of the
tips I personally use to learn Korean, but I've heard other people use these as well
to learn English or the language they are trying to learn. So these are some thing that
you should start doing as soon as you watch this video because honestly they actually
do help if you are consistent with them. And if you haven't already joined my challenge
if you are watching this while the challenge is still going on, if you haven't already
joined, please join. It can also help you with your language learning. So let's get
started! Tip number one! I tend to use my hand a lot so I may throw numbers that I am
actually not saying. So tip number one! I have my notes right here so don;t mind me
looking down. Of course, some of you guys may already do this so it might not be something
new. So just keep in mind that these are some things that I do and that I found that work.
So this tip is to watch television or shows in the language you are learning. so if it's
English, watch them in English and your native language in the subtitles at the bottom. For
example, I when I try to learn Korean, I watch the show in Korean or the drama or whatever
you want to call it. I watch it in Korean and then I watch, read the subtitles at the
bottom. This is pretty obvious, I'm pretty sure a lot of you guys already do this. So
nothing new but I just want to point it out because it actually works if you do it the
right way. Which is paying attention to the sounds paying attention to what you are hearing
and connecting it back to the subtitles. I think I've mentioned this before in another
video but this is pretty true and the important thing is to that you just like, get yourself
used to the language. So just watch their facial expressions. watch their body movements.
Because a lot of people in different cultures have different like movements. For example,
I talk a lot with my hands. I am not sure if this is just me or if this is American.
I'm not sure but I do talk a lot with my hands. So that's something that maybe it's just in
America, maybe it's just me but maybe other countries they don't use they hands, like
to talk. It helps me develop my thoughts. Anyways.... I'm digressing. Do watch these
shows or television and once you get used to them eventually you will be able to watch
them with out subtitles. Like if you watch a show multiple times, you might be able to
understand phrases or expressions without having to read the subtitles. So yeah....
That's the first tip. The second tip would be to watch YouTube videos. So it's actually
helpful if you find a video with, that's in English with English subtitles, and your native
language also in the subtitles. I feel like this helps your ear get accustomed to the
sounds or like the words you see because sometimes you might see a word or read a book but you
don't really know how to pronounce that certain word or phrase. And by looking at it in the
actual language, so if you are watching a video in English and have the subtitles in
English, it can actually help you listen to the word and connect the word with the sound.
But the thing is, if you don't really understand what that phrase means, by having the subtitles
also in your native language, it can help a lot with like the meaning, listening, and
also seeing the word. But of course for this you would probably have to watch the video
multiple times. Which is something really, really important. That is something I recommend,
to watch the video multiple times until you become familiarized with the sound and the
word and the actual meaning. And eventually you will watch it with no subtitles. That;s
what we want at the end. So I actually learned this tip from another YouTube video that I
watched a while ago. It said to focus on on one video or show or something, I would recommend
a video because they tend to be shorter. You could watch it over and over until you can
hear it and kind of know the meaning. So when you hear those phrases outside of the video,
like in the real world, you can kind of know what other people are saying. I've kind of
done that with Korean as well, I w watched Happy Together, I forgot what the episode
was but it was like a clip of the episode from Happy Together and I just watched it
over and over, and then I would watch it with subtitles, and eventually I was able to watch
it with out them. I would just hear it in the background, even while I was doing something
and I could kind of understand the conversation and I hadn't really realized how much I understood
until I stopped using the subtitles. Of course, I didn't understand everything, but I understood
enough that I didn't need the subtitles. So yeah, that's definitely a tip that I would
recommend! Adding on to the last tip, tip number 3! Is to write down the expressions
you hear or see in this, whatever show or YouTube video you are watching, even in the
real world. If you hear a phrase and you could kind of know what they are saying but you
don't know what it means, write it down and ask a native speaker if they could help you
translate that. This is something me and my language partner would do. I would write these
expressions that I would take down from the videos I would watch. It used to mostly be
videos or clips from Happy Together. I just like love that show because the cast is hilarious,
and I just like love watching celebrities try and be themselves, well it looks like
they are being themselves, maybe they are not completely being themselves since they
are on camera. Anyways... I love that show and it helps if you watch a a show that you
enjoy so that you are not like annoyed every time you have to go back and listen carefully
to that phrase because maybe you missed it, you didn't hear it well. You have to like,
repeat that clip multiple times so it's always good it you actually enjoy the show. And it's
something I did with my language partner. Every time I would meet with her, we had weekly
meet ups, I would bring in my notebook and show her the sentences I wrote and she she
would like, go word by word and try to decipher what it was saying. Sometimes, it was like
really ridiculous things because you know, Happy Together they come up with ridiculous
things. I think one of the shows was about farting or like the phrase said something
about farting. Like your family is rich enough to fart anywhere, something like that. But
I had no idea what it meant until I went to her and she just laughed because of course,
it was hilarious. I learned the meaning behind that phrase, thank you again for helping me
out. But yea, that I is my tip that I find that works and you can honestly do this and
it will work. It's just about being consistent with it and finding a show or a a video you
actually enjoy, Onto my next tip. Tip number 4! I have mentioned this before, you may have
seen it on HelloTalk, but I use this to learn phrases as well but also to help with my pronunciation
or like to red words faster. But I actually do covers with some friends, but I realized
that singing and reading the lyrics, because I learned hangel, I don't look at the romanized
lyrics, I look at the actual hangel lyrics, and it has helped me so much because you know
some songs tend to be fast so you have to keep up to the music. That has helped me by
trying to keep up, it has helped my pronunciation I think a little, or at least my reading.
If it hasn't helped my pronunciation as much as I think it has, it has helped at least
the reading, like trying to read fast or be able to keep up because before I used to read
super slow. I am not fast enough yet, but I have improved from like trying to keep up
with the music as I'm trying to read the lyrics. So definitely listen to music. Like I try
to listen to as much Korean music as I can, some of my friends even say that I'm not up
to date with American pop music anymore. I try to be but it's just that I want to constantly
hear Korean that I try to stick mainly to that type of music. Not necessarily k-pop,
I try to look at other genres as well. Bu I just want to hear it and be able to tell
the different sounds and phrases. And of course you can sing a long. That's the amazing part
about this tips is that if you sing a long, that's the best way to help you pronounce
words and sometimes some songs tend to be slow so you can start of with those songs
and them maybe move on to rap. If you improve your pronunciation and your listening skills,
maybe rap is your way of learning English, you know they speak really fast so maybe it
can help you speak faster. I'm just joking guys. Mumble if you have to. That's how I
sometimes am, like I mumble and then out of no where once like I hear the song after playing
it a bunch of times, I may just like know know the lyrics, But because I heard it so
many times, I know what's coming next and without me even knowing my mouth just says
the words in Korean. And that's one of the things that I find amazing actually, that
we are actually able to do that, it's just about keep doing it, keep doing these tips
and you won't even realize if you do it everyday, how much you are growing until you stop and
think back like woah, I could't say that before and now I can. SO yeah it' all about practice,
practice. Of course, if you do'n't know what the lyrics mean, what I like to do as well
is to look up the meaning English and what i also try to do to help my listening is to,
if it's a song that I kinda already know, I try to write down whatever I am hearing
and compare it to the actual hangel lyrics and see if I misspelled anything or I just
didn't know the actual word or phrase and that helps me as well with my listening. And
then after that, I look at the english translation to try to match what I've written and actually
try to understand what I've written. So yes, that's it for tip number 4. Tip number 5!
Is actually just to start talking. i'm pretty sure you've heard this, people have told me
as well to just start talking. You won't improve unless you do it. And that is something that
I am hoping to just do I now we are all afraid of speaking, afraid of bring judged if we
mispronounce something. Nut just find someone who you know will now judge you or instead
will help you improve because they know you are still learning. Find someone like that
and just talk to them and that's still my one goal. So yea so once you start actually
talking to someone in the language you are trying to learn, in English in this case,
you will see an improvement but you won't actually improve until you actually do it.
i actually saw a TED Talk. I don't know if you guys have watched TED Talks, it is actually
a great way to learn English if you are trying to watch a video or if you are trying to learn
about something. TED Talks are amazing I highly recommend them. And I actually watched the
TED Talk on language learning about 2 guys who went around different countries and set
themselves a goal to learn the native language of that country in 3 moths and they actually
we able to learn a fair amount, What they did was to just go and talk to people, if
they did'n't know a word they would look it up on a dictionary or on their phone but they
would not speak in English because I think their language was English or they both spoke
English. SO they would avoid speaking English and just talk in that country's native language.
All they did was take a dictionary with them wherever they went so when they were trying
to say something or communicate with someone, they would just look up whatever they were
trying to say. Even if it took them a while but he point is that they did use English
when they were out traveling and they actually able to get to a pretty good level for only
3 moths. I think in their video as well, they went to Korea and they were able to to speak
at least an intermediate level of Korean by the end of the 3 months, which I find amazing
because I have been studying Korean for about a year, more than a year already and my level
is not that great for the time I've spent studying and it's mostly because I have not
been as constant as I probably should. So yeah. I will work on that as well, keep working
on it because these tips that I've just given you actually do help it's just about keeping
each other accountable. And that's kind of what I want to do with you guys. Again, if
you guys haven't followed my challenges, please do. We will hopefully improve our language.
