Even if you barely know the language, I've found it beneficial to listen to foreign language audio with subtitles (YMMV). It mean that when I actually try to learn parts of the language, I already have somewhat of a feel for it, so what I'm learning solidifies into something usable more quickly, and I don't spend as much time stumbling with pronunciations/verb conjugations etc.
- always_good 10y agoMy problem with foreign audio + English subtitles (if that's what you meant) is that my brain just reads the subtitles and tunes out the audio for the most part. I think anything is better than nothing, though. I personally watch movies/shows now always with foreign subtitles.
- lorenzhs 10y agoI hate subtitles that aren't in the same language as the audio, that's just incredibly confusing. Having both in the foreign language requires a higher level of proficiency, sure, but I find it a lot more rewarding.
