60Being in the stage of your language learning journey is absolutely natural.进入语言学习的阶段是绝对自然的.

63progress.进展。
64And let's talk about these factors right now.我们现在谈谈这些因素。
65The first one is what I like to call the第一个是我喜欢叫它
66vocabulary wall.词汇墙。
67You know, when you're a beginner, every new word you learn feels like magic.你知道,当你是一个初学者, 你学到的每一个新词 感觉像魔法。
68Like喜欢
69you've discovered a new key, and now you feel so much more confident.你发现了一把新的钥匙 现在你觉得更自信了
70For example, learning just例如,学习

72It feels really fun and exciting and motivating, and you see progress right away.感觉很有趣,很刺激,很刺激,你马上就看到进步。
73But once you不过一旦你
74reach this intermediate level, B1 or B2, things change.达到中间水平, B1 或 B2, 事情会改变 。
75You've already learned all of the high你已经学会了所有的高级
76frequency words, like go, eat, tomorrow, very, because.频率词,像去,吃,明天,非常,因为。
77And from this point, words that you still从这一点,你仍然
78don't know, for example, moreover, resilient, insightful, all of these words are less common,不知道,比如说,有弹性,有洞察力,所有这些词都不太常见,
79and so you see them less often.所以你很少见到他们。
80And that means that it takes more time to remember them, to这意味着需要更多的时间去记住他们,
81memorize them.记住他们。
82And because you don't really see these words super often, your brain forgets them而且因为你没有真正看到这些词 超常,你的大脑忘了它们
83And that is exactly what I mean by diminishing returns.这就是我减少回报的意思。
84Every new word you learn gives you less你学的每个新词都少了
85and less payoff.和少回报。
86There is a very interesting concept that explains all of this.有一个非常有趣的概念来解释这一切。
87这叫Zip的
88Law.诸法.
89I really hope I'm pronouncing this word correctly, because it's German and I do not speak我真的希望我发音正确,因为它是德语,我不说
90German.德语
91If you guys know how to pronounce it correctly, please let me know in the comments如果你们知道如何正确发音 请在评论中告诉我
92if you speak German.如果你会说德语。
93Here's how it works in language learning.以下是在语言学习中的工作原理.
94A tiny number of words are几个字是
95used all the time, and most words are used very rarely.经常使用,而且大多数词很少使用。
96It's like the hundred most common English这就像百种最常见的英语
97words, like I, you, the, is, have, make up about 50% of everything you read or hear.语言,就像我,你,是, 是,已经, 占你读或听到的一切的50%。
98The next 1,000接下来的1000个
99words cover another 15 to 20%.还有15%到20%的词
100But to understand almost everything, like let's say 90% of a novel,但为了了解几乎所有事情 就像我们说小说的90%
101article, or podcast, you need to know 10,000 plus words.或者播客 你需要知道一万加字
102And those last few thousand words,最后的几千个字
103they're very rare, so you barely see them, which means that you have to read and listen a lot more他们非常罕见,所以你几乎看不到他们, 这意味着你必须阅读和听更多
104to be able to memorize them.能够记住他们。
105And obviously the forgetting curve doesn't help us here at all,很明显,遗忘的曲线 根本帮不了我们
106because it says that we forget things fast if we don't see them over and over again.因为它说,我们忘记的东西 快速,如果我们不看到它们 一遍又一遍。
107And so to也一样
108actually memorize all of those rare words that are used at C1 or C2, you need a lot more exposure,记住所有在C1或C2中使用的稀有词语 你需要更多接触
109like more reading time, deeper listening, space repetition, to just keep those words in your head.像更多的阅读时间,更深入的倾听, 空间重复, 只是保持这些词在你的脑海。
110Okay, so the next cause of your intermediate plateau might be good enough communication.好吧,你中间高原的下一个原因 可能是足够的沟通。
111Once一次
112you reach this intermediate B1, B2 level in English, you can communicate just fine, like you用英语读到中间的B1,B2水平,可以像您一样进行良好的交流
113completely okay when it comes to everyday conversations.说到日常谈话 完全没问题

115people understand you, and you don't need perfect grammar or perfect pronunciation to get your point人们理解你,你不需要完美的语法 或完美的发音来得到你的观点
116across.横过.

125Here's how是这样的
126we say it now.我们现在就说
127This is the only right way, and this is what linguists call fossilization.这是唯一的正确方法,这就是语言学家所说的化石化.
128It这个
129means that certain mistakes or shortcuts in English become so wired in your brain that they意思是英语中的某些错误或捷径 在你的大脑中变得如此有线

102And those last few thousand words, they're very rare so you barely see them,而最后的几千个字, 它们非常罕见,所以你几乎看不到它们,
103which means that you have to read and listen a lot more to be able to memorize them.这意味着你必须多读多听才能记住
104And obviously很明显
105the forgetting curve doesn't help us here at all because it says that we forget things fast if we遗忘的曲线对我们一点帮助都没有 因为它说,如果我们忘记的东西快
106don't see them over and over again.不要一次又一次地看到他们。
