  1. Ахој,

    Одлично говориш српски и нисам приметио падежне грешке, које некад и ја правим, хаха. Једино што треба да исправиш је акценат, али опрашта ти се јер не живиш у средини где се говори српски језик. Само напред и све најбоље!

    Поздрав од студента кинеског језика. :)

  3. Hello Vladimir. First of all, I would like to thank you for all inspiring videos. I am also from Slovakia, by the way from the same city as you. My question is : I study English and Russian languages and I am going to add on another Slavonic language which is probably going to be Polish or Croatian. Please, can you give me some advice related to studying 2 Slavic languages at the same time? Thank you

  4. Hello Denis. Thank you for the comment. How well do you speak Russian? I personally don't think that it is a good idea to study two languages at the same time, if you don't know one of them very well, especially if they are both from the same language family. It doesn't really matter if they are Slavonic or not.

  5. Thank you for your reply. I would say that my level is somewhere between intermediate and advanced. I still have a lot of work to do, there are some fields that I definitely have to work on but I can say that I feel comfortable in language already. I am just pondering about one thing: In learning Russian, I have created many associations with Czech and Slovak words and it has helped me. Could it be key to use this technique of comparison for all of the Slavonic languages or it is just too much? I know that you speak Serbo-Croatian, Russian, Polish and of course Slovak and Czech, so probably you have already found out something about this matter. Thank you )

  6. Sure it's a good idea. The thing is that these languages are so similar that if you don't speak at least one of them well, you will mix them up, that's all.

  9. Hello Vladimir,
    I'm from the Netherlands. I just saw your language video on youtube. You speak Dutch very well. It is a hard language with a difficult prononciation. I'm very impressed of all your language knowledge. I' m 17 years old and speak English, Dutch (of course), French, German and a bit Spanish. You have shown an amazing prestation with a lot of difficult languages. I have always been interested in languages, it is really impressive to see this!
    Succes and respect!

  11. Hi Vladimir! It's such a pleasure to discover your site and know about your wonderful gift for languages! I saw your video clip and enjoyed the sound of each of the 15 languages you speak. I'm of course most delighted to hear you speak (with much beauty of cadence and accuracy of tone) my native languages: Mandarin and Taiwanese. I'm a Chinese born in Manila, Philippines and my first language is Fookiense (which is to a large extent, Taiwanese). I'm currently learning French (on a self-study basis). I have a strong feeling that the resources in your blogs will inspire me in my pursuit of a personal dream: to be able to speak at least 4 more languages -- French, Spanish, Italian, and German -- in my lifetime. I look forward to more occasions to learn from you! Thanks!

    Sincerely,

  16. Heya Vladimir!
    I've read and watched a bunch of language learning blogs and videos, concerning Chinese or in general, during the past few years (what a great way to procrastinate :D ). I sometimes feel that I've accumulated enough techniques, mental mindset tricks and scientific knowledge to efficiently pursue my language learning adventure for the rest of my life. Yet, I'm amazed how your contribution humbles me! I discovered much wisdom and useful tips in your videos and your blog, e.g. your article on how to learn 'simple' languages efficiently. I reckon that it's because you think outside the box or it's thanks to your experience and rational mind. Anyway, I'm totally in tune with your advises and wish you'll keep up bringing them!

    Well, a praising comment wouldn't be complete without a small request, would it? haha
    I watched your video on interviews. I was sticking with ChinesePod podcasts by default until now, but it has drawbacks (e.g. 大陆-specific words (and accent) give me a hard time in Taiwan ;] ).
    So the idea of interviews is very appealing to me, but I can't find scripts interviews in Chinese on the web. I've tried things like 採訪全文, but no luck. Any recommendations?

  17. Hi Ben,

    Thank you very much:)

    Yes, I have some recommendations. You're talking about written interviews, right?

    I used to read interviews on the 天下雜誌 and Cheers magazine websites. They reorganized them a bit now, so I can't find them just by looking at the websites, but try looking at the 人物專訪 columns.

    Hope it helps,

  23. I just wanted to say I'm inspired and impressed, not just by your language skills, which are obvious, but that you seem to be such an open-minded, patient and humble person. It seems you have friends from all over the world.
    I have a theory that when spending time abroad and really taking the time to learn a language you also learn about the culture and the people and become less prejudiced and less willing to put people into boxes. Guessing a multilingual childhood like yours also contributes to this. What do you think? But not to make it personal, I'm sure you met some intesting people in Berlin, do you think my theory fits any of them?
    Thanks for taking the time!

    1. Hello Emily,

      thank you for the nice comment.

      I don't know to be honest. I think it's very individual. Traveling and being raised in a multilingual environment is something that will make you realize very early on in your life that your ways are not necessarily the right ones and that in itself is very humbling. On the other hand, I think, that people who are naturally openminded like to travel, so I don't know which one is the reason and which one is the result:)

  24. Very good afternoon,

    I discovered your blog through your Youtube Channel a few days ago and I have already seen almost all your videos. You are a source of inspiration. Thank you very much for sharing your tips and experiences with us.

    Could I ask to you if you use online translators? Which one do you like the most?

    If you do not mind, I am interested in learning Japanese and/or Swedish and I wonder if you have any tip specifically for it, apart of the general tips of your blog and channel. Or perhaps you know some website or resource specially useful to learn them. I know that you do not speak Swedish (yet) but perhaps you know some youtube channel to practice its listening, since pronunciation is its hardest part.

    Again, thank you for your work.

    1. Hello and thank you very much for the nice comment. I'm glad you enjoy the channel and like the blog.

      I use google translate all the time. I think it is amazing. It would take me a while to describe why I like it, but simply put, it is a very effective tool which makes language learning a bit easier :)

      As for Japanese, I don't think I can give you any good advice unfortunately, because I'm not good enough in the language. For me, learning Japanese was a bit different, because I spoke Chinese well and Japanese has a lot of loanwords from Chinese.

      Maybe you've seen the video I made about listening and looking for foreign language youtubers to help you with your speaking. You can try looking for some Swedish ones.

      All the best,

    I really enjoy your blog posts and want to thank you for all of your language learning advice! In one post you mentioned a course you took in Italy well-designed for foreign students and I wanted to ask, what was the name of the school and do you know of any other similar programs? I would love to travel to learn a language (right now French) more authentically while being involved in a similar type of program.

      It was a long time ago and I don't remember the details or the name, but it was a course for the Erazmus and other exchange students at the Centro linguistico at the Univeristy of Bologna, in Forli. If I remember correctly our classes were on the street which was perpendicular to the Main train station. It really was the only language course in my entire life where I really learned something.

  28. Hello!

    I have a minor suggestion as regards starting to read books in a foreign language. Namely, what I've been doing recently is instead of simply reading a book in a foreign language, I concurrently read the same book in my native language (or any language I speak fluently) and in the language I am attempting to learn, one chapter at a time.

    That way I have a fresh memory of the context and can read the whole chapter without stopping to look up a word. I simply mark words I find interesting or important and write them down later on.

    Have you ever tried doing that?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Hello,

      no, not really. I haven't tried it.

      Just by thinking about it briefly, I don't know how it could help you learn a language you don't speak very well yet though. If you're learning Russian and are at an intermediate level, you first read one chapter, say, in English and then the same chapter in Russian you'll know what the chapter is about but it will not help you much with understanding/learning new vocabulary which is the most important thing to do at these stages in my opinion.

      In a, say, 20 page chapter, there might be 100-150 words that you don't know at that learning stage and even if you read the chapter in English first, you just won't remember them all and won't be able to pair them up.

      I don't think reading the chapter in English first would be very effective then. Especially if you can dedicate only say 1 hour a day to your studies. Reading that chapter in English first will cost you a lot of time and even though it has its benefits, I don't see it being that useful compared to other techniques.

      But it's just my opinion.

    1. Hi,

      sorry I'm replying to your comment only now, but it was automatically labeled as spam for some reason and I had to manually allow it to be displayed. Google usually does a very good job at filtering out spam, so I almost never check the spam folder, that's why it took so long.

      I would learn German in the language in which you find better learning materials. It's probably going to be English, but I'm not sure, because I don't know anything about German language learning materials in Arabic.

      Good luck with your studies,

  31. My Ex, and former long-time partner, lists eight languages on her resume, English being the eighth. She carries an Oxford paperback dictionary with her, and the Scotch-taped cover serves really only as a folder for the much used pages. She is the only person I have ever heard use the rare word "chiliastic" correctly and in everyday conversation. (We were chatting about Gandhi or perhaps Mugabe, the latter of whom she called out accurately, decades ago when I still thought him an anti-colonialist liberator.)

    Among her languages, she lists Malian, Ugandan, and Kenyan Swahilis as three. I mentioned this quizzically to a friend, and he said, "Well, the Chinese might think of Spanish, Italian and Romanian as 'Romance' but we call them three different languages..."

    OK, if we can start thinking of Swahili as a family of languages, do you think there will come a point where we say "Chineses" rather than "Chinese"?

    Like everybody else I know the difference between Cantonese, "Mandarin," and Putonghua, and I'm vaguely aware of Fujianese and Shanghainese, which I think of as accents and some people call "dialects." But there's more to it than that, don't you think?

    What's your impression, being over there? My Chinese is still rudimentary, although I have done business in Taiwan (manufacturing bicycles for the Japanese market) and I've visited Hong Kong as a tourist a couple of times. "Next year, Beijing!"

    Still I've watched one bit of live input to Putonghua: 45 years ago I was an undergraduate at University of Toronto studying East Asian Studies, mostly classical philosophy and literature, and one of the department's professors was Professor "Sanskrit" Smith -- who commuted to China as a member of Chairman Mao's 47-odd member committee on language reform. Smith seems to have been a staunch Maoist, a fate I was able to avoid since I read the very good magazine "Problems of Communism." This later turned out to be financed by the US CIA, but it also turned out to have been extremely accurate in its reporting on the bogus Great Leap Forward and the calamitous Cultural Revolution.

    Anyway, Smith's activities kept Toronto up to date on language reform, and we all acquired a feeling for Putonghua as a work in progress -- somewhat parallel to the newly create "Filipino," which may or may not supplant Tagalog, and "Bahasa Indonesia" which the government and elite there intend to become the language of their diverse country.

    Today I study with a variety of computer and tape tutors, as well as Chinese friends whom I pester for help. This leaves me very much aware of differences in pronunciation even within urban and educated Beijing.

    How do the varieties of Chinese strike you, being over there?

    Best wishes, as always, Vladimir, and as usual thanks for your superb language materials!

    1. Hello and thank you for the nice comment.

      There are so many things you asked that I don't even know where to start my writing :)

      Maybe answering in bullets would be best:

      - in the West, the term Chinese often replaces the term Mandarin Chinese or Putonghua and I personally don't mind since it became such a widely used practice that it's simply the new standard now. I think it would be difficult to teach everyone that it's not entirely correct.
      - originally the term Chinese represented the group of languages that people from China were using (Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka etc.) today, as written above it is virtually the same thing as Mandarin Chinese.
      - as far as I know Mandarin and Putonghua are the same thing. Maybe today, the Han dialect that was chosen to be Putonghua/Mandarin and Putonghua/Mandarin itself are a bit different, but the fact still remains that Mandarin and Putonghua are just two different names for the same language. If I remember correctly, the term Mandarin comes from the Portuguese word 'mandarim' which was the word Portuguese colonists used to call Chinese officials coming from the Chinese capital. The language they were speaking was thus 'Mandarin' (which is the same thing as Putonghua = ordinary language). Interestingly, the word mandarim has its roots in Sanskrit. Mantrin = counsellor, from Mantra = counsel.
      - Fuijianese and Shanghaiese are definitely not dialects or accents, they are languages.
      - Cantonese, Shanghaiese, Hokkien, Hakka, Mandarin etc. are as different as French and Romanian if not more - my opinion.
      - "What's your impression, being over there?" I'm not over there anymore:) I moved back more than 3 years ago.

      Have a nice day,

      Vladimir

Hi Vladmir, I'm actually still in Middle School and my parents and I were talking to my parents about language courses the other day and they kept saying that I should take Spanish in Middle School, but I want to take Chinese in High School.

    1. Hello. I think you should learn Mandarin. You are still young and will learn much faster now. You might learn to speak Mandarin now much better than you'll ever be able to do later. You can learn Spanish in 6 months later if you really want to, but you will not get a second chance with Mandarin later in life as it will get too difficult when you're older. You are still young, you have a very big advantage. If you really want to learn Mandarin well though, you need to spend as much time with your Mandarin speaking friends as possible. Classrooms will teach you only very little especially if taught by native Chinese speakers who never had to actually learn their own language. Good luck :)

      yes I know her:) But in the video she said she learned English in 7 months, not 3, right?

      How fast you can learn a language - it depends on many many things. Language difficulty, time, methods, motivation, talent, environment, conditions.. Also, it depends what you mean by "to learn a language". It can be anywhere from a few weeks to a few years.

      What Gaby said in her video is possible. She was very motivated, studied a lot, already spoke some English when she started seriously studying it, she was in the right environment and she went from basic to intermediate knowledge.

Ked citam text potichu, v hlave mi ide uplne spravna vyslovnost aj melodia, som AUDITORY LEARNER. Ked ale zacnem citat text nahlas, casto je to ovela slabsie ako mi to islo v mysli, popletiem pismenka, pridam ''s'' tam, kde by som nemal a tak dalej.
    Samostatne slova viem vyslovit uplne presne a spravne, napr. podla videi na YTB. Neviem to ale dat nejako dokopy, stve ma ten stredoeuropsky prizvuk.

    Dakujem za si to docital az sem, vopred velka vsaka za Tvoju ochotu a trpezlivost.

    1. Cauko. Vyslovnost sa velmi tazko trenuje. Skus hovorit o polovicu pomalsie ako normalne hovoris na zaciatok. Rozpravaj sa sam so sebou a hraj sa s vyslovnostou.

Vacsinou to najdes podla spoluhlasok a samohlasok, ktore v nasich jazykoch nemame. Skus podla americkeho 'r' v slove 'red' pnajst olohu na spoluhlasky a podla a-cka v 'car' na samohlasky. Ta nulta poloha bude tam niekde blizko. Ked toto najdes, pojde vsetko ovela lahsie. Drz sa.

    1. Hi Alessandro :) I'm doing well thank you. I haven't been to any of the conferences. I don't have any topic that I would like to write about at the moment, but if I have one in the future, I will write an article about it for sure:) Thank you for the interest. All the best and I'm sending my warm greetings to Forli.
