To the author: have you ever learned a language?
There will always be people who like to learn languages by using some new methods and individuals who create them.
Since my native language is not English and not even in the same language category, I could say that you don't need all those "methods", apps and tricks.
Language learning is all about having the right mindset.
All you need is 3 things:
1) A good input for listening and reading and a good output in form of writing and speaking. Just find an enthusiastic teacher.
2) Alleviation of psychological blocks and obstacle like "I'm not good at this" or "I don't have a gene" or "I'll never speak like natives".
3) Knowing the big "why" as in "Why do you want to learn that specific language?"
- wodenokoto 9y agoThe best workout is the one you do. For a lot of people, language learning have some tedious rote memorization elements. And not everybody have access to an "enthusiastic teacher" These two things combined leaves plenty of room for "methods, apps and tricks"
- wingerlang 9y agoThat's your opinion. While I agree with your 123 points, I definitely see the point in having a diverse set of resources and methods to learn from.
- ro-_-b 9y agoLinguician is not meant to be the exclusive resource one may use for language learning. We don't brand or market it as a trick. It is meant as a playful and entertaining alternative you have on top of your own methods that you have for language learning.
