Duolingo

It's shit.

It's shit.

no?

 

[ʾAbū al-Qāsim]

no?

There are far superior methods. Add onto that the fact that with some languages, like Arabic, it straight up has mistakes and doesn't teach you important stuff.

Duolingo is good for learning mainstream languages + it does help u + its free + idk bro why u acting like a thug

Best way to learn language at a decent level without paying for a course is sites like Duolingo,Bussu and probably some book to learn the basic gramatic.

HDAC inhibitors reopen critical learning pathways that are sealed off post adolescence. Vorinostat probably works the best

Increasing neurogenesis would be your best bet outside of HDAC inhibition because keeping the brain more plastic allows you to retain and recall information more efficiently.

You can use Semax to release BDNF and simultaneously upregulate TrKB (bdnf is the ligand for this receptor). GHKcu increases vascular endothilal growth factor and promotes neurogenesis. Selank increases hippocampal neurogensis and abates neuroinflammation.

The strongest growth factor inducers are P21 (CNTF analogue) and Dihexa (hepatocyte growth factor agonist). Absolutely nothing increases neurogenesis like Dihexa, it blows cerebrolysin out of the water and costs infinitely less.

Dihexa is so powerful that if you have any current cancers developing it's essentially GG because it'll cause tumours to proliferate exponentionally. It's half life is super long

you could learn languages unbelievably fast on this stack

You can't learn languages "quickly", you need at least 6 months for the easiest ones

Total immersion method - move to those countries, live, work and breathe 24/7 that language and in a few months, you're gonna speak it like a native.

Duolingo

doesn't work.

go pirate pdfs online or buy grammar books in your target language. 90% of learning a language is understanding how the grammar works.

This thread is filled with so many cringe results I will speed run a language to show you how to actually learn a language.

move to country

fuck the local girls

take a classroom setting course a couple times a week

learn to read

constantly watch youtube/shows in the language

listen to music in language

don’t worry about speaking. especially for tonal languages

this has worked for me as i’ve managed to be conversational in korean thai and chinese

super practical

1. Start with Duolingo until you know how to make some phrases.
2. Then start learning words, search "the 1000 most common words in x" and memorize them surely.
3. Then learn more and more words ("just search the 2000 most common words in x" and with chatgpt or any website that compare lists delete the repeated words).
4. At the same time start learning how to understand people talking with youtube videos.
5. Now you know how to talk in a new language.

also start listening songs in that language with the lyrics on

it's probably because duolingo didn't teach him the important arab words like "i'm gonna blow this entire plane the fuck up for allah"

If by "quickly" you mean less than 6 months then I don't think it's possibile. I reached a C1 proficiency level in French in just 5-6 months through a combination of active learning strategies. I used Duolingo and Speakly to build my vocabulary and understanding of grammar. I also bought grammar books and immersed myself in online content of the target language ( youtube vids, manga translations, etc ). I also study french at school but it's just baby grammar

 

[einzigartig]

no?

he is right duolingo is indeed mediocre at best ngl. it is good for basic but for being able to hold conversation about many topics it kinda sucks.

Total immersion method - move to those countries, live, work and breathe 24/7 that language and in a few months, you're gonna speak it like a native.

holy moly biggest cope ever people who think that by just being in that country, that u gonna learn that language by itself are the biggest copers ngl

 

[Yahya]

dunno if you made insane progress but duolingo is trash and there was a french dude who posted a vid where he went to brazil and learned portugal from scratch in a few days with an intense method
i don't really remember the vid but I think he had access to pdf found on online libraries then used chatgpt to practice and watched tv shows

Anki plus Youtube Grammar Videos

You won't get fluent quickly in any language, but it's definitely possible to reach conversational level in under a year.

The most important things you need to focus on are:
1. Immersion
2. Vocab Words
3. Grammar

Immersion:
Ideally you want to be listening and interacting with the language as much as possible. YouTube will be the best for this, as it has countless hours of unscripted content with normal people talking. You can watch whatever you want, whether it's gaming videos, cooking, etc. TikTok is also good, you can download the app and then set the language to your target language, and just scroll on that when you're bored (I'm sure you scroll anyway, might as well make the most of that time). For a while you will understand hardly anything in your immersion, but you will absolutely get better with time. You need at least 2 hours of immersion a day if you want actual progress.

Vocab:
You're gonna want to use Anki for vocab. Most popular languages should have an already made deck with ~1000 words to learn for beginners. You should be doing 10 new words a day, or 20 if you're really serious. After you finish that deck you can make a new deck where you start making your own cards based on vocab words you see/hear in your immersion and want to know.

Grammar:
There's multiple ways to go about learning grammar, and it also varies based on the language. You can read about the rules of grammar, watch videos about it, etc. Focus on the most important things first. Anything else can be picked up naturally over time through immersion, and if something really confuses you, just ask chatgpt about it.

Follow these steps for a few years to become a language god
