12trying to learn in order to actually get the language learning benefit out of it and reach努力学习 以真正获得语言学习的好处 并达到
13your language learning goals.您的语言学习目标 。
14When I think about this myth about immersion, it's kind of like a collective cultural myth当我想到这个关于浸泡的神话, 它有点像一个集体的文化神话
15that we all have.我们都有
16And I think that the reason that this myth is so enduring is because it's kind of like我认为这个神话如此持久的原因 在于它有点像
17a romantic idea.一个浪漫的想法。
18It's like, oh, you know, I'm just going to get rid of all my things and move to the Italian就像,哦,你知道的,我只是要去 摆脱我的一切 并搬到意大利人

20And even if I don't speak a single word of Italian when I get there, I'm just going to即使我到那时不说一个意大利语 我也会说
21pick it up from interacting with the locals or going to the market and just living my把它从与当地人的互动中捡起来 或者去市场 仅仅生活我

23But other than being a romantic idea, I think also there's part of this idea that seems但除了浪漫的想法外,我想这个想法中还有一部分似乎
24like it should be true.像它应该是真实的。
25I mean, like somehow logically, we think about, well, if I'm there, I'm hearing the language我的意思是,像某种逻辑, 我们思考,嗯,如果我在那里, 我听到的语言
26around me all the time, I'm interacting in it, you know, people are teaching me words总是在我身边,我在互动,你知道, 人们在教我说话
27that I don't learn and that I don't know.我不学,我不知道。
28I'm learning these words and I'm kind of like having to use them to express myself and get我在学这些词,我有点喜欢用它们来表达自己
29through daily life.整个日常生活
30So like I should end up learning the language, but try to think about if you know anyone所以,我应该结束学习 语言,但试着思考 如果你认识任何人
31who's lived in another country for a long time and doesn't really speak the language,他住在另一个国家很长一段时间 而且不会说语言,
32we can see so many examples of this being true.我们可以看到如此众多的例子,这是真实的。
33And I think it's kind of a spectrum because I've met people on different parts of the我认为它是一种光谱 因为我在不同的地方见过人
34spectrum.光谱。
35Like I've met people who have lived in another country for many years and they do speak the就像我见过的人 谁住在另一个国家 多年,他们确实说
36language like they understand everything they hear and they manage to get by in the language,语言就像他们理解 他们听到的一切 他们设法通过语言,
37but they never really sound fluent and they never really feel fully fluent.但他们从来没有真正听起来流利 他们从来没有真正感到完全流利。
38Like they always feel like the language is a handicap and that it would be better if就像他们总觉得语言有缺陷 如果
39they could just speak their native language.他们只能说他们的母语。
40On the other hand, I have met people who have lived in countries for like a really long另一方面,我遇见了 住在国家里的人,他们像一个很长的
41time, you know, like 20 plus years and really don't speak the language at all.时间,你知道,像20多年 和真的不说语言 在所有。
42Like, I mean, maybe the basic, basic phrases, but not anything past that.比如,我意思是,也许基本,基本的短语, 但不是任何过去。
43And so this kind of disproves our myth that immersion alone is going to teach you a language.因此,这种否定了我们的神话: 独自沉浸将教你一种语言。
44And so if that's not the case, then what is?所以,如果不是这样, 那么是什么?
45I'm not saying immersion doesn't work.我不是说浸泡不行
46It certainly does, but you have to do it the right way, which I will talk about in just当然,但你必须做正确的方式, 我会谈论的只是
47a bit in the video.在视频里有点。
48But first, I want to talk about the reasons why.但首先,我想谈谈原因。
49The number one reason is that if you take away only one thing from this video, it should头一个原因是,如果你从这段视频中只拿走一件事,它应该
50be this at the end of the day, learning a language is always going to require effort学习语言总是需要努力
51on your part.就你来说
52Learning a language is not something that happens by accident.学习一种语言不是偶然发生的。
53But besides that, there are some specific reasons why immersion alone isn't going to但除此之外, 有一些具体的理由 为何独自沉浸不会
54really help you learn the language.真的帮助你学习语言。
55And let's start with the first reason, which is kind of like geared towards beginners.让我们从第一个原因开始, 这有点像面向初学者。
56Like if you, you know, in this kind of idealized version that I, that I described at the beginning,就像你,你知道,在这种理想化的版本 我,我在开始描述,
57you just arrive at a, at a certain country, in a certain country rather, where you don't你只是来到某个国家, 某个国家, 某个国家,你没有
58speak a word of the language.说一个语言。
59If you're a beginner, native speakers will pick up on that and they will do one of two如果你是初学者, 本地人会接听, 他们会做两个之一
60things.东西。
61They will switch languages or they will avoid talking to you.他们会调换语言,或者避免和你说话。
62So let's say that you're trying to speak in this language and like, maybe you can do所以,让我们假设你试图 用这种语言说话, 像,也许你可以
63basic stuff.基本的东西。
64Like you can say, hello, good morning.就像你可以说,你好,早上好。
65And you can do like a coffee order or order in a restaurant or something like that.你可以做一个咖啡 订购在餐馆或类似的东西。
66But at the end of the day, like the people, the native speakers, the waiters, you know,但到了最后,像人民, 母语,服务员,你知道,
67whoever, they're going to pick up on the fact that while you might know some basics,不管是谁,他们都会发现 你可能知道一些基本知识
68you don't really speak this language.你真的不会说这种语言。
69And when that happens, like I said, one of two things, they'll either switch languages就像我说过的,两件事之一 他们要么换语言
70to you.给你的。
71Like, you know, if you're in a touristy area, they'll probably switch to English with you喜欢,你知道,如果你在一个旅游区, 他们可能会转换为英语和你在一起
72or, you know, whatever the case may be.或者,你知道,不管情况如何。
73Or if they speak your language, they might switch to that language with you, but they或者如果他们说出你的语言, 他们可能会跟你换语言,但他们
74might switch languages because they think they're being helpful to you because they可能换语言,因为他们认为 他们帮助你,因为他们
75can hear you struggling and they might not think of it like, oh, well, they want to practice听到你在挣扎 他们可能不会想,哦,好吧,他们想练习
76and so they'll just switch languages or they will avoid talking to you.所以他们只会切换语言 或者避免跟你说话
77I mean, obviously they'll continue talking to you if they're like your waiter and they're我的意思是,很明显,他们会继续和你说话 如果他们是你的服务生和他们
78taking your order.接受你的订单。
79But imagine it's more of like, you know, a social situation where you're trying to但想象一下,这更像是,你知道, 一个社会状况,你试图
80chat and like do small talk and make friends.聊天和做小说和交朋友
81It sounds kind of harsh, but like people will somewhat avoid talking to you.这听起来有点苛刻, 但像人们会 有点避免和你说话。
82And I don't think it comes from a mean place.我不认为它来自一个恶劣的地方。
83I think what it is, is they can sense the lack of fluency.我认为,这是什么, 他们能感觉到缺乏流利。
84And so avoiding talking to you that much is kind of their natural reaction because the所以,避免和你说话 很多是 他们自然的反应,因为
85underlying assumption is, okay, I can hear them.基本假设是,好吧,我可以听到他们。
86They don't sound very fluent.听起来不太流利
87And so they don't really speak this language.所以他们不会说这种语言。
88So if I talk to them, they're not really going to understand what I say.所以如果我和他们说话, 他们不会真正理解我说的话。
89And so naturally they kind of avoid talking to you that much.自然地,他们会避免和你说话。
90Again, it might sound mean, but try to put yourself in their shoes or like maybe think再说一遍,听起来可能很刻薄 但试着让自己站在他们的立场上
91of this.这个
92Think if this has happened to you, like have you ever talked to someone who was really想想,如果这发生在你身上, 就像你曾经说过的人谁是真正的
93a beginner in your language and maybe the things they say, you don't even really fully用你的语言做初学者,也许他们说的话,你甚至不完全
94understand them or they don't make a lot of sense.了解他们或者说不通
95It's like, well, if they, if I can't really understand what they're saying and they're这就像,嗯,如果他们, 如果我不能真正理解 他们说什么,他们是
96speaking my language, like how are they going to understand me if I talk to them?说出我的语言,就像他们会如何理解我 如果我与他们说话?
97So we just all in that situation kind of have a natural inclination to avoid talking to所以,我们只是所有在这种情况下 有种自然的倾向 避免说话
98that person or as I mentioned in the beginning, switching languages so that we can actually那个人,或者如我在开头提到的, 切换语言,这样我们就可以实际上
99converse with them.与他们交谈。
100So that's the first reason that immersion isn't really going to work for you.所以这就是浸泡不会真正对你起作用的第一个原因。
101Immersion alone, especially if you are just moving to another country as a complete beginner孤独的沉浸,特别是如果你只是 作为完全的初学者移居到另一个国家
102in this language.在这种语言中。
103The other reason is that native speakers won't correct you.另一个原因是说本地话的人不会纠正你.
104And this applies a little bit more to people beyond the beginner phase of language learning.这更适用于语言学习初学者。
105So if you do actually speak this language somewhat, but you're not like a totally fluent所以如果你真的会说这种语言 但你不像一个完全流利的人
106speaker, you're maybe upper beginner or like intermediate or something like that.扬声器,你可能是上位初学者 或者像中间人物之类的
107The problem that you'll run into now is that native speakers won't correct you because你现在遇到的问题是 讲母语的人不会纠正你
108like if they are talking to you, as long as they understand the main idea of what you're就像他们跟你说话一样 只要他们理解你是什么
109trying to say, they're not going to correct whatever mistakes that you made.他们不会纠正你犯下的任何错误
110And once again, this isn't coming from a bad place.再说一遍,这不是从一个坏地方来的
111It's usually one of two things.通常为两件事之一.
112And the first one is they are assuming that it would be rude of them to correct your English第一个是他们假设 他们纠正你的英语很不礼貌
113or Spanish or insert language here.或西班牙语或在此插入语言。
114And in a way, they're actually kind of right in assuming that the thing about giving corrections从某种意义上说,他们实际上 假设 做修正的事情
115is it's kind of, it's like a delicate thing.是那种, 它就像一个微妙的东西。
116You know, like for example, I am a non-native speaker of Spanish and I feel pretty good举个例子,我是不会说西班牙语的,我感觉很好
117about my fluency, right?关于我的流利,对不对?
118But obviously there are still situations where I'll make mistakes and not in every one of但显然还是有些情况 我会犯错误 而不是在每一个
119those situations do I want someone to correct me.那些情况我想有人纠正我
120It depends who that person is, what their relationship is to me, what the context of这取决于这个人是谁, 他们和我的关系,什么背景
121the situation is.情况是这样的。
122But then on the other hand, there will be some situations where I would like someone但另一方面,有些情况下我想找个人
123to correct me.来纠正我
124And if you're talking to a stranger in like a, like I said, customer service sort of situation如果你和陌生人说话 就像我说的 客户服务之类的情况
125or a social situation, that stranger is not really going to know if they, if they're okay或社会状况, 那个陌生人不会真正知道 他们,如果他们没事
126to correct you, you know?要纠正你,你知道吗?
127So most of the time they won't because it could be rude and likely would be rude to所以大部分时间他们不会 因为那样可能很粗鲁 也可能很粗鲁
128do so.这样做。
129But the other part of this is that native speakers are not teachers and it is a specific但另一部分是讲母语的人不是老师,
130ability.能力。 能力。
131Like it might seem kind of easy because we all, you know, speak our native language and可能看起来很简单 因为我们都说我们的母语
132understand what sounds good and what doesn't, but the role of a teacher is very specific.理解什么听起来好,什么没有, 但教师的角色是非常具体的。
133It's like a certain ability that you have in order to hear mistakes, point them out这就像你一定的能力 为了听到错误,指出它们
134in the right way and coach the person into the correct answer in the right way.以正确的方式将人引导到正确的答案中
135So native speakers are not all going to be good at this and I have personal experience所以说本地话的人不会都擅长这个 我有个人经验
136with this because for example, my boyfriend is a native Spanish speaker.我男朋友是讲西班牙语的土生土长
137He's from Mexico and there are many times when I kind of wish he could help me with他来自墨西哥 我曾多次希望他能帮我
138my Spanish in certain ways, especially when like, I know there's a specific word that我的西班牙语在某些方面, 特别是当喜欢, 我知道有一个特定的词
139I've heard before that fits in a situation and I kind of try to say like, oh, I'm looking我之前听过那种情况 我想说,哦,我看着
140for this word that's like this and da, da, da, da, da.对于这个词,就像这个和达,达,达,达。
141Like he, he really, because he's not a teacher, he's not a trained language teacher.和他一样,他真的,因为他不是老师,也不是受过训练的语言老师.
142He doesn't always help me in the way that maybe I would like for him to do so, you know?他并不总是帮助我的方式 也许我会希望他这样做,你知道吗?
143And so you watching this video, if you have people in your life who are native speakers所以,你看这视频, 如果你有的人在你的生活中 谁是母语
144of the language you're trying to learn, you can probably relate to this.在你试图学习的语言中, 你也许可以涉及到这一点。
145Just regular normal native speakers aren't teachers.只是普通的母语不是老师
146And so sometimes when you kind of wish they could help you, sometimes they might try,所以有时当你有点希望 他们可以帮助你, 有时他们可能尝试,
147but they can't really help.但他们帮不了忙
148The third reason you're going to struggle is because native speakers will not correct你挣扎的第三个原因是 讲母语的人不会纠正
149your pronunciation.你的发音。
150Once you're beyond beginner and intermediate levels and you become like an advanced speaker一旦你超越初学者和中级水平 你就变成一个高级演说家
151of the language, you're going to have probably pretty high levels of vocabulary and grammar,在语言中,你可能会有 相当高的词汇和语法水平,
152but not necessarily high levels of pronunciation and phonetics.但不一定是高发音和语音.
153This is what happens to a lot of my students.我很多学生都这样
154They've lived in the US for a long time.他们在美国生活了很久
155Their level of English is very, very high.他们的英语水平非常,非常高.
156They can understand everything they hear, even with fast speech, even with slang and他们能理解他们听到的一切, 即使用快速的言语, 甚至用口号和
157all of these kinds of things.所有这些事情。
158And they can say basically anything they want to say in English, but they haven't learned他们基本上可以用英语说出他们想说的话,但他们还没有学到
159necessarily the phonemes of English, like the specific sounds that we use in English一定是英语的电话 就像我们用英语发的
160that are not used in their native language.他们的母语没有使用。
161And this is going to hinder their comprehension or, I mean, hinder the way that other people这将会妨碍他们的理解 或者,我的意思是,阻碍别人的方式
162comprehend them.理解他们。
163So how can someone live in a country for a long time and not ever really pick up the所以一个人怎么能在一个国家 生活了很长时间 从来没有真正拿起
164accent?口音吗?
165It's kind of what we saw before, right?这是我们以前看到的,对不对?
166So mastering the accent isn't something that happens by accident.所以掌握口音不是偶然发生的
167It's something that you actually need to try to do and put an effort to do.这是你真正需要做的 并努力去做。
168Maybe if you're very young, it might happen to you.也许如果你很年轻,它可能会发生在你身上。
169Like for example, I have a friend who moved to the US when he was 15 and he has like a比如说,我有个朋友 他15岁时搬到美国 他就像一个
170nearly native accent in English and I think that's because at that age, a lot of those几乎是英语的本地口音 我认为这是因为在那个年龄 很多
171processes in the mind and in the muscles we use for articulation are kind of still going心灵和肌肉中的过程 被我们用来表达
172on that allowed him to really mimic what he heard and start speaking like a native speaker.这让他能模仿他听到的 开始像本地人一样说话
173But for most of us who start learning a language when we are later in life or older, it's something但对我们大多数人来说,当我们晚年或更年长时 开始学习一种语言, 这是一种东西
174that you're going to have to make an effort to do.你必须努力去做
175Like for example, Spanish is my second language and I think I have a pretty good accent in比如说,西班牙语是我的第二语言 我想我的口音不错
176Spanish but that's because I tried.西班牙语,但那是因为我试过。
177From the beginning, it was always my goal to sound like a native speaker and so from从一开始,我的目标总是 听起来像一个母语,所以
178the beginning, I was doing different exercises and drills and things like that in order to一开始,我做了不同的练习 和钻探之类的事情
179develop my ability to speak the language, right?培养我讲语言的能力,对吧?
180Using the same sounds that native speakers do.使用同样的声音 当地人说话。
181I also worked with an accent coach so if I have a good accent in Spanish, it's because我还和口音教练一起工作 所以如果我有良好的口音西班牙语,那是因为
182I really tried to do so.我真的想这样做。
183And the same is true for whatever your language is that you're learning.无论你的语言是什么,你正在学习。
184And similar to our last point as well, native speakers won't correct you for basically the和我们的最后一点一样, 母语不会纠正你基本上
185same reasons we talked about before.我们之前讨论过的原因一样
186They're going to think it's going to be rude and in a lot of cases, they might kind of他们会觉得这很无礼 在很多情况下 他们可能有点
187be right about that and they're not teachers.说对了 他们不是老师
188Something that native speakers are exceptionally good at doing is hearing when something doesn't讲土语的人特别擅长做一些事 就是听到一些东西不听的话
189sound right.听起来不错。
190So if you have different pronunciation than what they're used to hearing, they're going所以,如果你有不同的发音 比他们习惯听,他们去
191to know that it sounds different and they're going to know you have an accent, but they知道这听起来不同 他们会知道你有口音,但他们
192are not good at saying why it sounds different and how to fix it.不擅长说为什么它听起来不同 以及如何修复它。
193So that's kind of why you have to work with an accent coach if that's the thing that you所以,这就是为什么你必须工作 与口音教练,如果这是你的事情
194want to work on.想继续工作
195The other thing about native speakers not correcting you is kind of the question of另一种关于母语的人不纠正你的问题就是
196like why would they?喜欢他们为什么?
197As long as they understand you in the end, it's kind of more efficient for them to just只要他们最终能理解你 他们就更有效率
198keep it moving.继续走
199It wouldn't be efficient from a time perspective for them to stop everything and say, oh, well,从时间角度来说 阻止一切并说
200you said this word kind of like this and the correct pronunciation is like this and so你说这个词是这样的 正确的发音是这样的
201you need to do this.你需要做到这一点。
202Why would they do that if at the end of the day they understood what you said?如果最后他们明白你的话 他们为什么要这么做?
203So that's why we can't rely on just immersion to master another language in terms of all所以我们不能只靠沉浸 掌握另一种语言
204of these factors like grammar, vocabulary, and also accent and pronunciation.包括语法,词汇,以及重音和发音等这些因素.
205Essentially under these circumstances, your language abilities are never going to magically基本上在这种情况下,你的语言能力 永远不会神奇
206improve on their own.自己改进。
207So how do we overcome this?那么,我们如何克服这些?
208You want to use this immersion that you have to your advantage because it is an incredibly你想用这种沉浸 对你有好处,因为它是一个不可思议的
209powerful tool, but as I said, there's a right way and a wrong way to do it.强大的工具,但正如我所说的,有正确的方法和错误的方法去做.
210So there are three tips I'm going to give you here of ways that you can kind of overcome因此,有三个提示,我给你 在这里的方式,你可以克服
211these obstacles.这些障碍。
212And then after that, I'm going to tell you about specifically kind of what I did when之后,我会告诉你 具体地说,我做了什么
213I moved to Mexico that really helped me make the most of the immersion of being constantly我搬到了墨西哥,这真的帮助我 尽可能地沉浸在不断
214around Spanish, which I was learning at the time to actually become really fluent in Spanish.我当时正在学西班牙语 真正能流利的西班牙语
215But first, let's start with these three tips or tools that I think you should integrate.但首先,让我们从这三个小说或工具开始,我认为你应该加以整合。
216And the first one is working with an actual teacher, even if you're living in the place第一个是和真正的老师一起工作 即使你住的地方
217where they speak the language that you're learning.在那里,他们说话的语言 你正在学习。
218As we've already looked at, immersion alone isn't enough for a variety of reasons.正如我们已经研究过的那样,由于各种原因,单独沉浸是不够的.
219And most of those reasons are related to native speakers not really being equipped to help这些原因大多都与 当地人没有真正能力帮助
220you for a variety of reasons.你因为各种原因。
221So when you work with an actual teacher in a teaching environment, corrections aren't因此,当你在教学环境中与真正的老师合作时,教改不是
222considered rude.认为粗鲁。
223You know, native speakers won't correct you because it's going to be rude, but the teacher,你知道,讲母语的人不会纠正你, 因为这将是粗鲁的,但老师,
224that's what you're paying them to do.这就是你付钱让他们做的。
225So they will offer you corrections.他们将给你改正。
226And the other thing is that we've talked a lot about how native speakers aren't necessarily另一件事是,我们已经谈了很多 如何使用本地语
227trained as teachers, and so they're not equipped to really coach and guide you.被训练为教师, 所以他们没有真正 教练和指导你。
228But a teacher is, so when you do make a mistake and they do correct you, they're going to但是老师是,所以当你犯了错误 他们纠正了你,他们会
229be able to help you understand the concept and coach you to doing it the right way.能够帮助你理解概念 并指导你以正确的方式去做
230And also, a teacher is patient.师亦有忍.
231So when you're living in another country and are living your life, you have to consider所以,当你生活在另一个国家, 生活你的生活, 你必须考虑
232that the native speakers you're interacting with, they're often just living their lives与你互动的土著演说家 他们常常只是过着自己的生活
233as well.临Τ
234And so they're going to choose many times the most efficient way to do things.所以他们会选择许多倍 最有效的方法来做事情。
235And a lot of times the most efficient way to do things is not to offer corrections or很多时候,最有效的方法 做事情 不提供纠正或
236help you with your language abilities.帮助您掌握语言能力。
237As long as they understood you, they're just going to keep it moving because, you know,只要他们了解你,他们就会继续移动 因为,你知道,
238for time's sake.因为时间的原因。
239But when you're working with a teacher, their job is to help you improve your language abilities.但是当你和老师一起工作的时候,他们的工作就是帮助你提高语言能力.
240So they are going to be patient with you and take the time to explain why something was所以他们要耐心对待你 慢慢解释为什么
241wrong and how you can make it better.错误和如何使它更好。
242So for example, something that happens a lot in my classes is that students say a word比如说,我上课时经常发生的事情 就是学生说一句话
243wrong, and I don't understand the word at all.我完全听不懂这个词
244Like I literally don't know what they said.好像我不知道他们说了什么
245But then a couple words later, my brain catches up and I figure out what it was they said.但后来我说了几句话, 我的大脑赶上了,我知道他们说了什么。
246That could be from the context of the words that they said after, or I don't know, my这可能是从他们说的话的背景 之后,或者我不知道,我的
247brain just had like a four second delay and I finally was like, ah, okay, that was the大脑只有四秒钟的延迟 我终于...
248word.词
249But that's not the experience that I want my students to have in the real world with但这不是我想要我的学生在现实世界中拥有的经验
250their English.他们的英语。
251Like I don't want them to be speaking English and the people listening to them have to have就像我不希望他们说英语 和人们听他们的有
252this four second buffer period to realize what they said.这4个第二个缓冲期 以实现他们说的话。
253I want it to be instant so that your message is properly transmitted the first time that我希望它立刻,以便你的消息 正确传递在第一次,
254you speak.你说话。
255So even though I understood the word, I still take the time to explain it.因此,尽管我理解这个词,我仍然需要时间来解释它。
256In a real life scenario with a native speaker, they hear the word, they don't understand在现实生活中 讲母语的人 听到这个词 他们不懂
257and then their brain catches up or the context makes it clear what the word was, they're然后他们的大脑赶上 或背景 清楚它是什么词,他们是
258just going to move on because at the end of the day they understood you.只是要继续前进,因为最后 他们理解你。
259But as a teacher, I'm going to pause and say, okay, when you said that word, at first I但是作为一个老师,我要暂停 说,好吧,当你说这个词,一开始我
260didn't understand it because you said it like this and it should be like this.不理解,因为你这样说 应该是这样
261So can we try that again?我们能再试一次吗?
262So that's another reason it's important to work with a teacher.所以这是另一个与老师合作很重要的原因.
263The second thing that I recommend that you try to do to kind of overcome these obstacles我建议你努力克服这些障碍
264for immersion is intentional practice.浸润是故意的行为。
265When you're living in the place where they speak the language, you're going to feel like当你住在他们讲语言的地方 你会觉得
266you're doing practice all day, every day anyways, because you're going out, you're speaking,你整天都在练习 每天都在练习 因为你要出去 你说
267you're hearing the language all around you and that is true, you are practicing.你听到你周围的语言 这是真的,你在练习。
268But what I'm talking about is something else, it's intentional practice.但是,我说的是别的东西,这是故意的练习.
269Something that you do alone, maybe one on one with a teacher, but more so like something你一个人做,也许一个和老师在一起, 但更像是某种东西
270that you probably do alone.你可能一个人做。
271And I'm not going to go in a ton of depth into like a bunch of examples of this.我不会在一吨深的深度 进入到像这一系列的例子。
272I'm going to give a few examples so you get the idea.我要举几个例子,让你明白这个想法。
273But the training or exercises that you do is going to depend on what facet of your language但你的训练或练习 取决于你语言的方方面面
274you're trying to improve.你试图改进。
275And the constant immersion that you're experiencing is going to help guide your focus.你所经历的不断的沉浸 将帮助引导你的注意力。
276So if you notice this thing is hard or this thing is hard, that's where you're going to所以,如果你注意到这个东西是难的 或这个东西是难的, 这就是你要去的地方
277practice, that's where you're going to focus your practice.练习,这就是你要去 集中你的练习。
278So I like to divide language abilities into three, which are vocabulary, grammar and phonetics.所以我喜欢将语言能力分为三个,即词汇,语法和语音.
279So for vocabulary, for example, you guys already know I love Enki, the app, which is totally举例来说,关于词汇,你们已经知道我爱恩基了,这个应用是完全的
280free.免费。
281I have a video explaining how to set that up, but anyways, if you notice that you hear我有一个视频解释如何设置, 但无论如何,如果你注意到你听到
282words and you don't recognize them, you need to write those down or put them in your phone单词又不认得,要写下来或者放在手机里
283and then add them to your Enki set and then study them later.然后把它们加进你的恩基套装 然后以后再研究
284So one form of intentional practice would be reviewing your Enki set to review the new所以,一种形式的故意做法是审查你的恩基套集,以审查新的
285vocabulary that you've been learning in this immersive environment.你在这个浸润的环境中学到的词汇。
286So you're actually taking advantage of the environment by learning these words and then所以,你实际上利用环境 通过学习这些词,然后
287using Enki to make sure that they stay with you.利用恩基确保他们和你在一起
288If the facet you're trying to improve is grammar, you might have heard a certain grammatical如果你试图改进的面孔是语法, 你可能已经听到某种语法
289structure that was unfamiliar to you or that you don't feel like you know very well.结构,你并不熟悉 或者你觉得自己不太清楚。
290And then you go and read an article about it, look it up, like try to understand how然后你去读一篇关于它的文章, 查一下,像试图理解如何
291it works and then maybe do one of these online quizzes to test your ability and like improve然后做一个在线测验 测试你的能力 并喜欢提高
292your ability in that.你在这方面的能力。
293When it comes to phonetics, that's my area of expertise so I can think of like a million说到口音,那是我的专业领域 所以我能想到一百万
294different examples of things that you can do like specific drills and exercises to improve不同的例子,你可以做的 像特定练习和练习 改进
295your pronunciation.你的发音。
296But on a really simple level, the best thing you can do is shadowing or reading out loud.但是在一个非常简单的层面上, 你所能做的最好的事情是 跟踪或大声读出来。
297The things that I give to my students are often more specific depending on like what我给学生的东西往往更具体 取决于什么
298specific thing they're trying to work on so that I have certain exercises related to mastering具体的事情,他们正在试图工作 这样我有一些练习 与掌握
299a certain sound or exercises related to connected speech or rhythm or things like that.一定的声音或练习与连接的语音或节奏或者类似的东西有关.
300Finally, the third tip I have for you is about your curiosity.最后,我给你的第三个提示是 你的好奇心。
301So even though you feel like you're probably improving just by being around the language所以,尽管你觉得 你可能正在改善 只是通过周围的语言
302all the time, you need to make sure that you maintain this insatiable sense of curiosity一直以来,你需要确保 你保持这种无厌的好奇心
303towards the language, like a constant hunger to continually grow your knowledge about the向着语言,就像不断的饥饿 不断增长你的知识
304language.语言。
305When I moved to Mexico, it really did supercharge my Spanish a lot, but there were these key当我搬到墨西哥时,它真的 超量加载我的西班牙语,但有这些钥匙
306things that I did to make sure that my Spanish continued to grow in this immersive environment我所做的一切 是为了确保我的西班牙人 继续在这种浸润的环境中成长
307and the immersive environment was actually like adding to my language knowledge and one和浸润的环境 实际上就像增加 我的语言知识和一个
308of those things was having the constant curiosity.那些东西一直很好奇
309But I'm going to talk about that more in just a second.但我马上就会再谈这个
310Let's take a moment to talk about these three things in order that I did in order to make让我们花点时间谈谈这三件事 为了让我做
311sure that when I moved to Mexico, I could actually take full, full, full advantage of当然,当我搬到墨西哥, 我实际上可以 完全,完全,完全的优势
312the immersion and use it to supercharge my Spanish.沉浸和用它来给我的西班牙语加压。
313So the first one is I already spoke Spanish when I moved.第一个是我搬家的时候已经说西班牙语了
314This is really, really key because as I said at the top of the video, a lot of people have这真的很,真的很关键 因为我在视频的顶部说过,很多人都有
315this idea that you can just move to a country with no knowledge and you're just going to这个想法,你可以 只是搬到一个没有知识的国家 你只是要去
316pick up the language.捡起语言.
317This is not true for all of these reasons that we saw before.由于我们以前看到的所有这些原因,情况并非如此。
318If you really don't speak the language, people aren't going to talk to you, frankly, they're如果你真的不说语言, 人们不会跟你说话,坦率地说,他们是
319just not.只是没有。
320And so when I moved to Mexico, I already had, like if we're looking at that scale of A1,所以,当我搬到墨西哥,我已经有, 像如果我们看A1的尺度,
321A2, B1, B2, I probably had like a B2 level of Spanish.A2,B1,B2,我大概有B2级的西班牙语
322So I already could basically talk about essentially any topic.所以我基本上可以谈论任何话题。
323And so what this did is it allowed people to actually be able to talk to me and for因此,它使得人们可以 真正能够和我说话,并且为
324people to actually want to talk to me because I wasn't like so beginner that I wasn't a人们真的想跟我说话 因为我不是那么刚开始的人
325decent conversationalist.正直的对话家。
326I was a good conversation partner.我是一个很好的谈话伙伴。
327If I had really like a really shaky level of Spanish when I had moved, this would have如果我真的喜欢 真正的不稳定水平的西班牙语 当我搬家,这将是
328the door on so many possible opportunities for me to speak Spanish with people and get我有很多机会可以和别人说西班牙语
329that practice.那个练习。
330So by having an actually decent level of Spanish when I moved, this granted me access to so我搬家的时候, 有了像样的西班牙语水平, 才让我有机会
331many more opportunities to speak Spanish and continue learning Spanish.有更多的机会说西班牙语和继续学习西班牙语。
332So that's number one, already speaking by the time I moved here.这是第一,在我搬来的时候已经说过了。
333And the second thing is relating to this last tip that I told you about, which is having第二件事与我告诉你的最后一点有关
334an insatiable curiosity about the language.对语言的无厌好奇
335This was really one of the biggest keys to making immersion work for me and allowing这真的是一个最大的钥匙 使浸泡工作对我来说和允许
336me to become really, really fluent in Spanish because as I said, I was at a B2 level.我变得非常,非常流利的西班牙语 因为我说过,我是在B2级。
337So I honestly, I probably could have stopped there in a way.老实说,我也许可以停在那里
338And I think for many people, it's kind of like that.我想对很多人来说, 就是这样。
339Like when you move to a country and you already speak enough of the language to get by for就像你搬到一个国家,你已经说得够多的语言了
340a lot of people, this feels kind of like the finish line because it's like I could have很多人,这感觉有点像 终点线,因为它就像我可以
341stayed at B2 and like lived my life like that and probably been okay.住在B2 喜欢过我的生活 这样,也许没事。
342And I would have made lots of mistakes, but people would have still understood me for我本来会犯很多错误 但人们还是会理解我
343the most part and it would have been fine.大部分,而且它会一直很好。
344But I love languages and I always had this goal that I wanted to speak Spanish as well但我喜欢语言,我总有这个目标 我也想说西班牙语
345as I possibly, possibly could.我可能,也许可以。
346So that's what allowed me to like maintain this insatiable hunger for knowledge around所以,这就是让我喜欢保持 这种无厌的渴望 知识周围
347the language.语言。
348So while I was immersed every day in Spanish, basically every day was more of a learning所以当我每天用西班牙语浸泡时, 基本上每一天都是一种学习
349opportunity.机会。
350So I actually have this notebook here and this notebook, I carried it around with me所以我有一本笔记本 一本笔记本,我带着它到处走
351everywhere when I first moved to Mexico.我第一次搬到墨西哥时 到处都是
352And you could say that this is kind of like my curiosity notebook.你可以说这有点像我的好奇心笔记本。
353So everything I heard that I didn't understand or that I was curious about, I wrote it down所以,我听到的一切 我不明白或好奇,我写下来
354here.在这里。
355Or for example, I always try to like make the configuration of my brain into Spanish,比如说,我总是喜欢把大脑的配置 变成西班牙语,
356like put the configuration of my brain in Spanish instead of in English.就像把我的大脑配置用西班牙语而不是用英语
357This is another really good way to practice because I was like having thoughts, you know,这是另一个很好的练习方式 因为我就像有想法,你知道,
358the same way you always have your internal monologue, but I was having it like in Spanish就像你总是有你的内部独白, 但我有它像西班牙语
359instead of in English.而不是英语。
360So I would say, oh, that's interesting.所以我会说,哦,这很有趣。
361How would I express that in Spanish?我要怎么用西班牙语表达?
362I'm not sure.我不太确定 说不定
363And then these kind of thoughts I would have, I would write them down in the notebook.然后这种想法,我会写在笔记本上。
364And one of the biggest things the notebook was for was for understanding the subjunctive.笔记本上最大的内容之一 是用来理解底线
365If you're a native speaker of Spanish, you probably don't even know what this is.如果你是西班牙语的母语, 你可能甚至不知道这是什么。
366But it's like the difference between like nosotros somos and nosotros seamos.但是,这就像鼻祖苏摩和鼻祖海摩的区别.
367The second one is like the subjunctive, which introduced this level of like unreal or like第二个像副连接, 它引入了这个级别 像不真实或类似
368hypothetical situations.假设的情况。
369So it's very difficult for non-native speakers of Spanish to grasp.因此,非母语西班牙语者很难把握.
370And in this notebook, I would write down all kinds of things and then I would go and ask在这本笔记本里 我会写下所有的东西 然后我会去问
371friends and roomies.朋友和室友们
372And it is, you know, the teacher has a very specific role in this and it is good to have这是,你知道, 老师有一个非常具体的角色 在这个,这是很好的
373a teacher.一个老师。
374I also had a teacher at the same time, but I really enjoyed these kind of conversations我也同时有个老师 但我很喜欢这种谈话
375where I would ask native speakers who were not teachers because, you know, I am a teacher.在那里,我要问那些不是老师的母语,因为我是老师。
376So I kind of knew how to ask the question in the right way to get answers from them.所以我知道如何用正确的方式问问题,从他们那里得到答案。
377And it was interesting kind of watching how I was like obligating native speakers to think有趣的是,我看着自己像 义务让本地人思考
378about their language in a way they never had before and to say, OK, why does it sound this关于他们的语言 他们从来没有过的方式, 并说,OK,为什么听起来这样
379way?怎么样?
380You know, why does it sound good this way?你知道,为什么听起来这样很好?
381And why doesn't it sound good this way?为什么听起来不好吗?
382Like, hmm, if both of them are correct, then like, what's the small change in meaning when就像,嗯,如果两者是正确的, 那么像,
383I change this one thing?我改变一件事?
384And hearing these kind of candid answers from native speakers allowed me to get a sense并听到这种 坦率的回答 从母语 使我得到感知
385for like how the language feels rather than the rules of the language.就像语言的感觉 而不是语言的规则
386For example, with the subjunctive, we all know if you are a non-native Spanish speaker例如,用副词,我们都知道你是不是非母语的西班牙人
387that the subjunctive has certain triggers.副作用有一定触发作用
388Like so when you say this and this, you know that the verb coming after should be triggered比如当你说这个和这个,你知道 后面的动词应该被触发
389into the subjunctive.进入子连接符。
390But when I would ask native speakers about these kind of things, rather than just learning但当我问本地人 有关这些事情, 不只是学习
391the rules, I was learning like how the subjunctive feels.规则,我在学习如何 亚结语的感觉。
392And that's for me, like the key to how I cracked the subjunctive and now I feel like I can那是给我的 就像我如何解开副关节的关键 现在我觉得我可以
393use it perfectly.完美地使用它。
394And I find it very fun and interesting to use.我发现它非常有趣和有趣的使用。
395So I wrote down some examples.所以我写了一些例子。
396Well, I mean, I went through the book and picked out a couple of examples.嗯,我的意思是,我翻阅了这本书 并挑选出几个例子。
397Honestly, everything in this book was really interesting from a linguistics perspective.老实说,从语言学的角度来看,这本书里的所有东西都很有趣。
398So it was hard for me to choose some.所以我很难选择一些。
399But there was a couple that I marked.但有对夫妇 我标记。
400One in particular I marked because I was thinking about it even before I opened the book, but特别的,我标记是因为我在打开书前就已经想过了,但是...
401opening the book was crazy seeing all these things that I thought, you know, all these这本书的开篇是疯狂的 看到所有这些东西 我想,你知道,所有这些
402years ago.数年前.
403But one in particular was I remember my roommate said something to me that was like, que bueno但有一个特别的是我记得我的室友 对我说的东西,就像, que bueno
404que somos rumis.来点朗姆酒
405And I kind of understood that the que bueno que could be like a subjunctive trigger.我有点理解, que bueno que 可能像一个副连接触发器。
406And so I was like, why did she say somos instead of seamos?所以我想,为什么她说 somos而不是semos?
407所以在我的书里,我写下来像 que bueno que somos 朗米斯和 que bueno que seamos。
408rumis.鲁米斯。
409And so I asked her, like, why did you say this one and not the other one?所以我问她,喜欢, 你为什么说这个而不是另一个?
410And so she really thought about it.所以她真的考虑过了
411And I remember what she said.我记得她说的话
412她就像,你知道,如果我告诉你 que bueno que somos romis, 它像的东西
413already happened that kind of proved that us already being roommates is a good thing.这证明我们已经是室友是好事
414Like we were able to watch a movie together.就像我们能一起看电影一样
415So like, that's great that we're roomies because there's already been a benefit and it's like所以,那太好了,我们是室友 因为已经有好处了,它就像
416a real benefit.一个真正的好处。
417但是,如果她说 que bueno que seamos romis, 她解释的方式是类似的东西,
418you know, this is like maybe we have newly become roomies or even if not, it's like we're你知道,这就像也许我们 刚成为室友,即使没有,它就像我们
419looking in my mind, the mind of the speaker, I'm like thinking forward to something that看着我的脑海,演讲者的脑海, 我就像在想一些事情
420in the future maybe will happen and the probability can vary a lot.未来也许会发生 概率会有很大差异
421Like maybe very probably or like maybe possibly could happen.可能有可能发生
422But it's like a future benefit that hasn't yet come to fruition.但是,这就像一个未来的好处 还没有取得成果。
423这将是 que bueno que seamos Rumis。
424So that's one example.这就是一个例子。
425I also wrote down things that just like came to my mind.我还写了些事情,我想起了
426So for example, I have one right here that says like how to talk about finishing things.比如说,我这里有一个 说到如何完成事情。
427Like for example, what's the difference between like terminar, acabar, acabarse and like all比如说,像白蚁,阿卡巴,阿卡巴 和像所有
428of this so that I get to understand how to talk about finishing things.这样我才能理解 如何谈论完成的事情。
429Let's see.让我看看。
430This almost certainly came from a book, which at one point I read Frankenstein in Spanish.这几乎肯定出自一本书, 我曾经读过弗兰肯斯坦的西班牙语。
431The translation was very good.译经甚妙.
432Frankenstein is an amazing book in English or in Spanish.弗兰肯斯坦是一本英语或西班牙语的惊人书籍.
433But anyway, I think maybe this came from this.但无论如何,我想也许这是从这个。
434上面写着 假的 la voz más dulce que yo haya escuchado.
435And I was like, why is it aya?我当时想,为什么是Aya?
436So I read that and I wrote it down.所以我读了它,我把它写下来。
437I was like, I need to understand why this is aya.我当时想,我需要理解 为什么这是Aya。
438And so then I wrote down the other possibilities.于是我记下了其他的可能性。
439Why not la voz más dulce que he escuchado or la que había escuchado?为何他不说出自己的话来?
440And so then I asked someone and I have written in parentheses here, all three are correct.于是我问了一个人,我用括号写了这三句话,都是正确的。
441And so this is interesting to me because then as a native speaker explains it to me, I can因此,这对我来说很有趣 因为,作为一个本地人 向我解释,我可以
442see that the meaning changes.见其意义变化.
443Like I could use all three of those and all three of them would be correct, but each of我可以用这三样东西 三个都没错 但每个
444them would have different meanings.他们有不同的意义。
445Another example of how I use this notebook is like when words were particularly challenging我用这本笔记本的另一个例子是 文字特别困难的时候
446for me, I would often like challenging to remember like a word that for whatever reason对我来说,我常常想挑战 记住一个词,因为任何原因
447I just couldn't remember.我只是不记得了。
448I remember I had this problem with the words cojín and cajón in Spanish.我记得我对西班牙语中的cojín和cajón有这种问题。
449It was like, I always mix these up because they're like sort of similar or whatever.这就像,我总是 混合这些 因为他们喜欢类似什么的。
450And then once I realized the connection, so for example, I, what I would do in these situations然后一旦我意识到了联系, 所以,举例来说,我,我会做什么 在这种情况下
451is go look up the etymology of the word and see where it came from originally.去查查这个词的词源 看看它最初的来源
452And this solved the issue for me.这解决了我的问题。
453So for example, cojín I learned is related to French.例如,我学到的cojín与法语有关。
454I'm going to pronounce this wrong, cousson, I guess, which stems from vulgar Latin coxinus,我要发错音了, 库森,我猜, 源自粗俗的拉丁克辛努斯,
455which means seat pad, which comes from Latin coxa, which means hip, and possibly Latin意思是座椅垫,来自拉丁coxa,意思是臀部,也可能是拉丁语
456pelvinus pillow.皮尔文纳斯枕头。
457And so the English word cushion comes from the French word cousson from the Latin coxa.因此,英语单词缓冲来自法语单词cousson,来自拉丁coxa.
458And so that means that the word cushion and cojín are connected through this shared root.也就是说,衬垫和cojín一词是通过这个共享根相连的。
459So when I think cushion, cousson, cojín, somehow in my mind, now they all connect together.所以,当我想到衬垫, 库森,cojín, 不知何故在我的脑海, 现在它们都连接在一起。
460And so now I'll never forget this word.所以现在我永远不会忘记这个词
461I'll never mess it up with cajón again.我不会再和卡琼搞混了
462And I realized that cajón is kind of like caja.我意识到卡约有点像卡约
463So it makes perfect sense.所以这很合理
464And so these are the kinds of things I was doing with this notebook.这些就是我用这本笔记本做的
465One last example, because I remember this one very specifically as well.最后一个例子,因为我记得这个非常具体的例子。
466I was talking to someone and there was a situation where like I knew something before something我和某人说话时 遇到一种情况 就像我知道一些事之前
467else happened.还发生了其他事
468我告诉他,他就像, 啊, que bueno que lo supieras。
469And I was like, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.我当时想,等一下,等一下,等一下。
470你为何说supieras, porque si lo supe?
471Like I did know.就像我知道的那样
472So why did you use this tense that gives this sense of like uncertainty?那你为什么用这种紧张 给人这种不确定的感觉?
473Like que bueno que lo supieras.比如说 苏皮埃拉
474And he sat there silently for a second and was like, hmm.他静静地坐在那里一秒钟,就像,嗯。
475他对我说,波克,没有supieras, 没有hubiera sido bueno, entonces que bueno。
476que lo supieras.苏皮耶拉
477And that for me was like my mind blown in that moment.对我来说就像那一刻我的思想被吹了
478So I find that extremely interesting.所以我觉得这非常有趣。
479But to kind of wrap up this point, this notebook is how I mastered this adjunctive.但为了结束这一点, 这个笔记本是我如何掌握这个形容词的。
480This notebook is like what allowed me to let my curiosity run wild with Spanish and to这本笔记本让我对西班牙语的好奇心大发
481continue to have a hunger for knowledge about the language and to say like, oh, well, if继续渴望了解语言 并说,哦,好吧,如果
482I can't say this, how would I, you know?我不能说,我怎么会,你知道吗?
483And so every little curiosity I had, I found a way to satisfy that curiosity by gaining所以,我每一点点的好奇心, 我找到一个方法满足这种好奇心 通过获得
484the knowledge, by asking someone, by looking it up, whatever the case may be.知识,通过问一个人, 通过调查它,不管案件是什么。
485And that's what allowed me to really like expand my Spanish really, really far and become所以我才喜欢扩展我的西班牙语 真正,真正远,并成为
486really, really fluent.真的很,真的很流利。
487So that's the second thing that I did.因此,这是我做的第二件事。
488And the third thing is specific accent training.第三件事是具体的口音训练。
489So as I mentioned, I did work with an accent coach in Spanish.所以,正如我所提到的,我确实与一个西班牙语的口音教练一起工作。
490Even before working with him, though, I always tried to train my accent because it was always在和他合作之前,我总是试着训练我的口音,因为它总是
491my goal to sound as much like a native speaker as I could.我的目标是尽可能像一个本地人说话
492So I was, you know, putting in the effort of doing shadowing.所以我,你知道, 努力做影子。
493I would like record my voice and like listen to a clip from a native speaker and kind of,我想录下我的声音 并想听一个土著演讲的片段
494you know, put on headphones and try to say the same thing at the same time as the native戴上耳机 试着和本地人说话
495speaker and then do like audio comparison, like all of these things and watching people's扬声器,然后做 音频比较, 像所有这些事情和观看人们的
496mouths to make sure that my mouth was moving in the same way.嘴来保证我的嘴 以同样的方式移动。
497And then eventually I did find an accent coach for Spanish and so I took a course with him.最后我找到了西班牙语的口音教练 所以我和他一起上了一个课程
498So all of this was like, you know, the actual effort that I put into making sure that my所以这一切就像,你知道, 我付出的实际努力 确保我的
499accent was as good as possible.口音尽可能好
500Because again, what have we learned in this video?再说一遍,我们在这段视频里学到了什么?
501None of this happens just by accident.这一切都不是偶然发生的。
502You have to make an effort.你必须努力
503And making an effort is super worth it to me because like I love when I meet new people努力对我来说是值得的 因为我喜欢遇到新人
504here and they are very surprised by the way that I talk.他们很惊讶我说话的方式

506so good.这么好
507我曾经有人对我说,哇, as como hablar con una Mexicana más。

509feel that way to them, like when their experience of talking to me feels like talking to just感觉这样对他们, 就像当他们的经验 跟我说话 感觉像说话

521as we said, it's a spectrum.正如我们所说,这是一个光谱。

13your language learning goals.您的语言学习目标 。
14When I think about this myth about immersion, it's kind of like a collective cultural myth当我想到这个关于浸泡的神话, 它有点像一个集体的文化神话
15that we all have.我们都有

28I'm learning these words and I'm kind of like having to use them to express myself and get我在学这些词,我有点喜欢用它们来表达自己
29through daily life.整个日常生活
30So like I should end up learning the language, but try to think about if you know anyone所以,我应该结束学习 语言,但试着思考 如果你认识任何人
31who's lived in another country for a long time and doesn't really speak the language,他住在另一个国家很长一段时间 而且不会说语言,
32we can see so many examples of this being true.我们可以看到如此众多的例子,这是真实的。
33And I think it's kind of a spectrum because I've met people on different parts of the我认为它是一种光谱 因为我在不同的地方见过人
34spectrum.光谱。
35Like I've met people who have lived in another country for many years and they do speak the就像我见过的人 谁住在另一个国家 多年,他们确实说
36language like they understand everything they hear and they manage to get by in the language,语言就像他们理解 他们听到的一切 他们设法通过语言,
37but they never really sound fluent and they never really feel fully fluent.但他们从来没有真正听起来流利 他们从来没有真正感到完全流利。

39they could just speak their native language.他们只能说他们的母语。
40On the other hand, I have met people who have lived in countries for like a really long另一方面,我遇见了 住在国家里的人,他们像一个很长的

42Like, I mean, maybe the basic, basic phrases, but not anything past that.比如,我意思是,也许基本,基本的短语, 但不是任何过去。
43And so this kind of disproves our myth that immersion alone is going to teach you a language.因此,这种否定了我们的神话: 独自沉浸将教你一种语言。
44And so if that's not the case, then what is?所以,如果不是这样, 那么是什么?
45I'm not saying immersion doesn't work.我不是说浸泡不行
46It certainly does, but you have to do it the right way, which I will talk about in just当然,但你必须做正确的方式, 我会谈论的只是
47a bit in the video.在视频里有点。
48But first, I want to talk about the reasons why.但首先,我想谈谈原因。
49The number one reason is that if you take away only one thing from this video, it should头一个原因是,如果你从这段视频中只拿走一件事,它应该
50be this at the end of the day, learning a language is always going to require effort学习语言总是需要努力
51on your part.就你来说
52Learning a language is not something that happens by accident.学习一种语言不是偶然发生的。
53But besides that, there are some specific reasons why immersion alone isn't going to但除此之外, 有一些具体的理由 为何独自沉浸不会
54really help you learn the language.真的帮助你学习语言。
55And let's start with the first reason, which is kind of like geared towards beginners.让我们从第一个原因开始, 这有点像面向初学者。
56Like if you, you know, in this kind of idealized version that I, that I described at the beginning,就像你,你知道,在这种理想化的版本 我,我在开始描述,
57you just arrive at a, at a certain country, in a certain country rather, where you don't你只是来到某个国家, 某个国家, 某个国家,你没有
58speak a word of the language.说一个语言。
59If you're a beginner, native speakers will pick up on that and they will do one of two如果你是初学者, 本地人会接听, 他们会做两个之一
60things.东西。
61They will switch languages or they will avoid talking to you.他们会调换语言,或者避免和你说话。
62So let's say that you're trying to speak in this language and like, maybe you can do所以,让我们假设你试图 用这种语言说话, 像,也许你可以
63basic stuff.基本的东西。
64Like you can say, hello, good morning.就像你可以说,你好,早上好。
65And you can do like a coffee order or order in a restaurant or something like that.你可以做一个咖啡 订购在餐馆或类似的东西。
66But at the end of the day, like the people, the native speakers, the waiters, you know,但到了最后,像人民, 母语,服务员,你知道,
67whoever, they're going to pick up on the fact that while you might know some basics,不管是谁,他们都会发现 你可能知道一些基本知识
68you don't really speak this language.你真的不会说这种语言。
69And when that happens, like I said, one of two things, they'll either switch languages就像我说过的,两件事之一 他们要么换语言
70to you.给你的。
71Like, you know, if you're in a touristy area, they'll probably switch to English with you喜欢,你知道,如果你在一个旅游区, 他们可能会转换为英语和你在一起
72or, you know, whatever the case may be.或者,你知道,不管情况如何。
73Or if they speak your language, they might switch to that language with you, but they或者如果他们说出你的语言, 他们可能会跟你换语言,但他们
74might switch languages because they think they're being helpful to you because they可能换语言,因为他们认为 他们帮助你,因为他们
75can hear you struggling and they might not think of it like, oh, well, they want to practice听到你在挣扎 他们可能不会想,哦,好吧,他们想练习
76and so they'll just switch languages or they will avoid talking to you.所以他们只会切换语言 或者避免跟你说话
77I mean, obviously they'll continue talking to you if they're like your waiter and they're我的意思是,很明显,他们会继续和你说话 如果他们是你的服务生和他们
78taking your order.接受你的订单。
79But imagine it's more of like, you know, a social situation where you're trying to但想象一下,这更像是,你知道, 一个社会状况,你试图
80chat and like do small talk and make friends.聊天和做小说和交朋友
81It sounds kind of harsh, but like people will somewhat avoid talking to you.这听起来有点苛刻, 但像人们会 有点避免和你说话。
82And I don't think it comes from a mean place.我不认为它来自一个恶劣的地方。
83I think what it is, is they can sense the lack of fluency.我认为,这是什么, 他们能感觉到缺乏流利。
84And so avoiding talking to you that much is kind of their natural reaction because the所以,避免和你说话 很多是 他们自然的反应,因为
85underlying assumption is, okay, I can hear them.基本假设是,好吧,我可以听到他们。
86They don't sound very fluent.听起来不太流利
87And so they don't really speak this language.所以他们不会说这种语言。
88So if I talk to them, they're not really going to understand what I say.所以如果我和他们说话, 他们不会真正理解我说的话。
89And so naturally they kind of avoid talking to you that much.自然地,他们会避免和你说话。
90Again, it might sound mean, but try to put yourself in their shoes or like maybe think再说一遍,听起来可能很刻薄 但试着让自己站在他们的立场上
91of this.这个
92Think if this has happened to you, like have you ever talked to someone who was really想想,如果这发生在你身上, 就像你曾经说过的人谁是真正的
93a beginner in your language and maybe the things they say, you don't even really fully用你的语言做初学者,也许他们说的话,你甚至不完全
94understand them or they don't make a lot of sense.了解他们或者说不通
95It's like, well, if they, if I can't really understand what they're saying and they're这就像,嗯,如果他们, 如果我不能真正理解 他们说什么,他们是
96speaking my language, like how are they going to understand me if I talk to them?说出我的语言,就像他们会如何理解我 如果我与他们说话?
97So we just all in that situation kind of have a natural inclination to avoid talking to所以,我们只是所有在这种情况下 有种自然的倾向 避免说话
98that person or as I mentioned in the beginning, switching languages so that we can actually那个人,或者如我在开头提到的, 切换语言,这样我们就可以实际上
99converse with them.与他们交谈。
100So that's the first reason that immersion isn't really going to work for you.所以这就是浸泡不会真正对你起作用的第一个原因。
101Immersion alone, especially if you are just moving to another country as a complete beginner孤独的沉浸,特别是如果你只是 作为完全的初学者移居到另一个国家
102in this language.在这种语言中。
103The other reason is that native speakers won't correct you.另一个原因是说本地话的人不会纠正你.
104And this applies a little bit more to people beyond the beginner phase of language learning.这更适用于语言学习初学者。
105So if you do actually speak this language somewhat, but you're not like a totally fluent所以如果你真的会说这种语言 但你不像一个完全流利的人
106speaker, you're maybe upper beginner or like intermediate or something like that.扬声器,你可能是上位初学者 或者像中间人物之类的
107The problem that you'll run into now is that native speakers won't correct you because你现在遇到的问题是 讲母语的人不会纠正你
108like if they are talking to you, as long as they understand the main idea of what you're就像他们跟你说话一样 只要他们理解你是什么
109trying to say, they're not going to correct whatever mistakes that you made.他们不会纠正你犯下的任何错误
110And once again, this isn't coming from a bad place.再说一遍,这不是从一个坏地方来的
111It's usually one of two things.通常为两件事之一.
112And the first one is they are assuming that it would be rude of them to correct your English第一个是他们假设 他们纠正你的英语很不礼貌
113or Spanish or insert language here.或西班牙语或在此插入语言。
114And in a way, they're actually kind of right in assuming that the thing about giving corrections从某种意义上说,他们实际上 假设 做修正的事情
115is it's kind of, it's like a delicate thing.是那种, 它就像一个微妙的东西。
116You know, like for example, I am a non-native speaker of Spanish and I feel pretty good举个例子,我是不会说西班牙语的,我感觉很好
117about my fluency, right?关于我的流利,对不对?
118But obviously there are still situations where I'll make mistakes and not in every one of但显然还是有些情况 我会犯错误 而不是在每一个
119those situations do I want someone to correct me.那些情况我想有人纠正我
120It depends who that person is, what their relationship is to me, what the context of这取决于这个人是谁, 他们和我的关系,什么背景
121the situation is.情况是这样的。
122But then on the other hand, there will be some situations where I would like someone但另一方面,有些情况下我想找个人
123to correct me.来纠正我
124And if you're talking to a stranger in like a, like I said, customer service sort of situation如果你和陌生人说话 就像我说的 客户服务之类的情况
125or a social situation, that stranger is not really going to know if they, if they're okay或社会状况, 那个陌生人不会真正知道 他们,如果他们没事
126to correct you, you know?要纠正你,你知道吗?
127So most of the time they won't because it could be rude and likely would be rude to所以大部分时间他们不会 因为那样可能很粗鲁 也可能很粗鲁
128do so.这样做。
129But the other part of this is that native speakers are not teachers and it is a specific但另一部分是讲母语的人不是老师,
130ability.能力。 能力。
131Like it might seem kind of easy because we all, you know, speak our native language and可能看起来很简单 因为我们都说我们的母语
132understand what sounds good and what doesn't, but the role of a teacher is very specific.理解什么听起来好,什么没有, 但教师的角色是非常具体的。
133It's like a certain ability that you have in order to hear mistakes, point them out这就像你一定的能力 为了听到错误,指出它们
134in the right way and coach the person into the correct answer in the right way.以正确的方式将人引导到正确的答案中
135So native speakers are not all going to be good at this and I have personal experience所以说本地话的人不会都擅长这个 我有个人经验
136with this because for example, my boyfriend is a native Spanish speaker.我男朋友是讲西班牙语的土生土长
137He's from Mexico and there are many times when I kind of wish he could help me with他来自墨西哥 我曾多次希望他能帮我
138my Spanish in certain ways, especially when like, I know there's a specific word that我的西班牙语在某些方面, 特别是当喜欢, 我知道有一个特定的词
139I've heard before that fits in a situation and I kind of try to say like, oh, I'm looking我之前听过那种情况 我想说,哦,我看着
140for this word that's like this and da, da, da, da, da.对于这个词,就像这个和达,达,达,达。
141Like he, he really, because he's not a teacher, he's not a trained language teacher.和他一样,他真的,因为他不是老师,也不是受过训练的语言老师.
142He doesn't always help me in the way that maybe I would like for him to do so, you know?他并不总是帮助我的方式 也许我会希望他这样做,你知道吗?
143And so you watching this video, if you have people in your life who are native speakers所以,你看这视频, 如果你有的人在你的生活中 谁是母语
144of the language you're trying to learn, you can probably relate to this.在你试图学习的语言中, 你也许可以涉及到这一点。
145Just regular normal native speakers aren't teachers.只是普通的母语不是老师
146And so sometimes when you kind of wish they could help you, sometimes they might try,所以有时当你有点希望 他们可以帮助你, 有时他们可能尝试,
147but they can't really help.但他们帮不了忙
148The third reason you're going to struggle is because native speakers will not correct你挣扎的第三个原因是 讲母语的人不会纠正
149your pronunciation.你的发音。
150Once you're beyond beginner and intermediate levels and you become like an advanced speaker一旦你超越初学者和中级水平 你就变成一个高级演说家
151of the language, you're going to have probably pretty high levels of vocabulary and grammar,在语言中,你可能会有 相当高的词汇和语法水平,
152but not necessarily high levels of pronunciation and phonetics.但不一定是高发音和语音.
153This is what happens to a lot of my students.我很多学生都这样
154They've lived in the US for a long time.他们在美国生活了很久
155Their level of English is very, very high.他们的英语水平非常,非常高.
156They can understand everything they hear, even with fast speech, even with slang and他们能理解他们听到的一切, 即使用快速的言语, 甚至用口号和
157all of these kinds of things.所有这些事情。
158And they can say basically anything they want to say in English, but they haven't learned他们基本上可以用英语说出他们想说的话,但他们还没有学到
159necessarily the phonemes of English, like the specific sounds that we use in English一定是英语的电话 就像我们用英语发的
160that are not used in their native language.他们的母语没有使用。
161And this is going to hinder their comprehension or, I mean, hinder the way that other people这将会妨碍他们的理解 或者,我的意思是,阻碍别人的方式
162comprehend them.理解他们。
163So how can someone live in a country for a long time and not ever really pick up the所以一个人怎么能在一个国家 生活了很长时间 从来没有真正拿起
164accent?口音吗?
165It's kind of what we saw before, right?这是我们以前看到的,对不对?
166So mastering the accent isn't something that happens by accident.所以掌握口音不是偶然发生的
167It's something that you actually need to try to do and put an effort to do.这是你真正需要做的 并努力去做。
168Maybe if you're very young, it might happen to you.也许如果你很年轻,它可能会发生在你身上。
169Like for example, I have a friend who moved to the US when he was 15 and he has like a比如说,我有个朋友 他15岁时搬到美国 他就像一个
170nearly native accent in English and I think that's because at that age, a lot of those几乎是英语的本地口音 我认为这是因为在那个年龄 很多
171processes in the mind and in the muscles we use for articulation are kind of still going心灵和肌肉中的过程 被我们用来表达
172on that allowed him to really mimic what he heard and start speaking like a native speaker.这让他能模仿他听到的 开始像本地人一样说话
173But for most of us who start learning a language when we are later in life or older, it's something但对我们大多数人来说,当我们晚年或更年长时 开始学习一种语言, 这是一种东西
174that you're going to have to make an effort to do.你必须努力去做
175Like for example, Spanish is my second language and I think I have a pretty good accent in比如说,西班牙语是我的第二语言 我想我的口音不错
176Spanish but that's because I tried.西班牙语,但那是因为我试过。
177From the beginning, it was always my goal to sound like a native speaker and so from从一开始,我的目标总是 听起来像一个母语,所以
178the beginning, I was doing different exercises and drills and things like that in order to一开始,我做了不同的练习 和钻探之类的事情
179develop my ability to speak the language, right?培养我讲语言的能力,对吧?
180Using the same sounds that native speakers do.使用同样的声音 当地人说话。
181I also worked with an accent coach so if I have a good accent in Spanish, it's because我还和口音教练一起工作 所以如果我有良好的口音西班牙语,那是因为
182I really tried to do so.我真的想这样做。
183And the same is true for whatever your language is that you're learning.无论你的语言是什么,你正在学习。
184And similar to our last point as well, native speakers won't correct you for basically the和我们的最后一点一样, 母语不会纠正你基本上
185same reasons we talked about before.我们之前讨论过的原因一样
186They're going to think it's going to be rude and in a lot of cases, they might kind of他们会觉得这很无礼 在很多情况下 他们可能有点
187be right about that and they're not teachers.说对了 他们不是老师
188Something that native speakers are exceptionally good at doing is hearing when something doesn't讲土语的人特别擅长做一些事 就是听到一些东西不听的话
189sound right.听起来不错。
190So if you have different pronunciation than what they're used to hearing, they're going所以,如果你有不同的发音 比他们习惯听,他们去
191to know that it sounds different and they're going to know you have an accent, but they知道这听起来不同 他们会知道你有口音,但他们
192are not good at saying why it sounds different and how to fix it.不擅长说为什么它听起来不同 以及如何修复它。
193So that's kind of why you have to work with an accent coach if that's the thing that you所以,这就是为什么你必须工作 与口音教练,如果这是你的事情
194want to work on.想继续工作
195The other thing about native speakers not correcting you is kind of the question of另一种关于母语的人不纠正你的问题就是
196like why would they?喜欢他们为什么?
197As long as they understand you in the end, it's kind of more efficient for them to just只要他们最终能理解你 他们就更有效率
198keep it moving.继续走
199It wouldn't be efficient from a time perspective for them to stop everything and say, oh, well,从时间角度来说 阻止一切并说
200you said this word kind of like this and the correct pronunciation is like this and so你说这个词是这样的 正确的发音是这样的
201you need to do this.你需要做到这一点。
202Why would they do that if at the end of the day they understood what you said?如果最后他们明白你的话 他们为什么要这么做?
203So that's why we can't rely on just immersion to master another language in terms of all所以我们不能只靠沉浸 掌握另一种语言
204of these factors like grammar, vocabulary, and also accent and pronunciation.包括语法,词汇,以及重音和发音等这些因素.
205Essentially under these circumstances, your language abilities are never going to magically基本上在这种情况下,你的语言能力 永远不会神奇
206improve on their own.自己改进。
207So how do we overcome this?那么,我们如何克服这些?
208You want to use this immersion that you have to your advantage because it is an incredibly你想用这种沉浸 对你有好处,因为它是一个不可思议的
209powerful tool, but as I said, there's a right way and a wrong way to do it.强大的工具,但正如我所说的,有正确的方法和错误的方法去做.
210So there are three tips I'm going to give you here of ways that you can kind of overcome因此,有三个提示,我给你 在这里的方式,你可以克服
211these obstacles.这些障碍。
212And then after that, I'm going to tell you about specifically kind of what I did when之后,我会告诉你 具体地说,我做了什么
213I moved to Mexico that really helped me make the most of the immersion of being constantly我搬到了墨西哥,这真的帮助我 尽可能地沉浸在不断
214around Spanish, which I was learning at the time to actually become really fluent in Spanish.我当时正在学西班牙语 真正能流利的西班牙语
215But first, let's start with these three tips or tools that I think you should integrate.但首先,让我们从这三个小说或工具开始,我认为你应该加以整合。
216And the first one is working with an actual teacher, even if you're living in the place第一个是和真正的老师一起工作 即使你住的地方
217where they speak the language that you're learning.在那里,他们说话的语言 你正在学习。
218As we've already looked at, immersion alone isn't enough for a variety of reasons.正如我们已经研究过的那样,由于各种原因,单独沉浸是不够的.
219And most of those reasons are related to native speakers not really being equipped to help这些原因大多都与 当地人没有真正能力帮助
220you for a variety of reasons.你因为各种原因。
221So when you work with an actual teacher in a teaching environment, corrections aren't因此,当你在教学环境中与真正的老师合作时,教改不是
222considered rude.认为粗鲁。
223You know, native speakers won't correct you because it's going to be rude, but the teacher,你知道,讲母语的人不会纠正你, 因为这将是粗鲁的,但老师,
224that's what you're paying them to do.这就是你付钱让他们做的。
225So they will offer you corrections.他们将给你改正。
226And the other thing is that we've talked a lot about how native speakers aren't necessarily另一件事是,我们已经谈了很多 如何使用本地语
227trained as teachers, and so they're not equipped to really coach and guide you.被训练为教师, 所以他们没有真正 教练和指导你。
228But a teacher is, so when you do make a mistake and they do correct you, they're going to但是老师是,所以当你犯了错误 他们纠正了你,他们会
229be able to help you understand the concept and coach you to doing it the right way.能够帮助你理解概念 并指导你以正确的方式去做
230And also, a teacher is patient.师亦有忍.
231So when you're living in another country and are living your life, you have to consider所以,当你生活在另一个国家, 生活你的生活, 你必须考虑
232that the native speakers you're interacting with, they're often just living their lives与你互动的土著演说家 他们常常只是过着自己的生活
233as well.临Τ
234And so they're going to choose many times the most efficient way to do things.所以他们会选择许多倍 最有效的方法来做事情。
235And a lot of times the most efficient way to do things is not to offer corrections or很多时候,最有效的方法 做事情 不提供纠正或
236help you with your language abilities.帮助您掌握语言能力。
237As long as they understood you, they're just going to keep it moving because, you know,只要他们了解你,他们就会继续移动 因为,你知道,
238for time's sake.因为时间的原因。
239But when you're working with a teacher, their job is to help you improve your language abilities.但是当你和老师一起工作的时候,他们的工作就是帮助你提高语言能力.
240So they are going to be patient with you and take the time to explain why something was所以他们要耐心对待你 慢慢解释为什么
241wrong and how you can make it better.错误和如何使它更好。
242So for example, something that happens a lot in my classes is that students say a word比如说,我上课时经常发生的事情 就是学生说一句话
243wrong, and I don't understand the word at all.我完全听不懂这个词
244Like I literally don't know what they said.好像我不知道他们说了什么
245But then a couple words later, my brain catches up and I figure out what it was they said.但后来我说了几句话, 我的大脑赶上了,我知道他们说了什么。
246That could be from the context of the words that they said after, or I don't know, my这可能是从他们说的话的背景 之后,或者我不知道,我的
247brain just had like a four second delay and I finally was like, ah, okay, that was the大脑只有四秒钟的延迟 我终于...
248word.词
249But that's not the experience that I want my students to have in the real world with但这不是我想要我的学生在现实世界中拥有的经验
250their English.他们的英语。
251Like I don't want them to be speaking English and the people listening to them have to have就像我不希望他们说英语 和人们听他们的有
252this four second buffer period to realize what they said.这4个第二个缓冲期 以实现他们说的话。
253I want it to be instant so that your message is properly transmitted the first time that我希望它立刻,以便你的消息 正确传递在第一次,
254you speak.你说话。
255So even though I understood the word, I still take the time to explain it.因此,尽管我理解这个词,我仍然需要时间来解释它。
256In a real life scenario with a native speaker, they hear the word, they don't understand在现实生活中 讲母语的人 听到这个词 他们不懂
257and then their brain catches up or the context makes it clear what the word was, they're然后他们的大脑赶上 或背景 清楚它是什么词,他们是
258just going to move on because at the end of the day they understood you.只是要继续前进,因为最后 他们理解你。
259But as a teacher, I'm going to pause and say, okay, when you said that word, at first I但是作为一个老师,我要暂停 说,好吧,当你说这个词,一开始我
260didn't understand it because you said it like this and it should be like this.不理解,因为你这样说 应该是这样
261So can we try that again?我们能再试一次吗?
262So that's another reason it's important to work with a teacher.所以这是另一个与老师合作很重要的原因.
263The second thing that I recommend that you try to do to kind of overcome these obstacles我建议你努力克服这些障碍
264for immersion is intentional practice.浸润是故意的行为。
265When you're living in the place where they speak the language, you're going to feel like当你住在他们讲语言的地方 你会觉得
266you're doing practice all day, every day anyways, because you're going out, you're speaking,你整天都在练习 每天都在练习 因为你要出去 你说
267you're hearing the language all around you and that is true, you are practicing.你听到你周围的语言 这是真的,你在练习。
268But what I'm talking about is something else, it's intentional practice.但是,我说的是别的东西,这是故意的练习.
269Something that you do alone, maybe one on one with a teacher, but more so like something你一个人做,也许一个和老师在一起, 但更像是某种东西
270that you probably do alone.你可能一个人做。
271And I'm not going to go in a ton of depth into like a bunch of examples of this.我不会在一吨深的深度 进入到像这一系列的例子。
272I'm going to give a few examples so you get the idea.我要举几个例子,让你明白这个想法。
273But the training or exercises that you do is going to depend on what facet of your language但你的训练或练习 取决于你语言的方方面面
274you're trying to improve.你试图改进。
275And the constant immersion that you're experiencing is going to help guide your focus.你所经历的不断的沉浸 将帮助引导你的注意力。
276So if you notice this thing is hard or this thing is hard, that's where you're going to所以,如果你注意到这个东西是难的 或这个东西是难的, 这就是你要去的地方
277practice, that's where you're going to focus your practice.练习,这就是你要去 集中你的练习。
278So I like to divide language abilities into three, which are vocabulary, grammar and phonetics.所以我喜欢将语言能力分为三个,即词汇,语法和语音.
279So for vocabulary, for example, you guys already know I love Enki, the app, which is totally举例来说,关于词汇,你们已经知道我爱恩基了,这个应用是完全的
280free.免费。
281I have a video explaining how to set that up, but anyways, if you notice that you hear我有一个视频解释如何设置, 但无论如何,如果你注意到你听到
282words and you don't recognize them, you need to write those down or put them in your phone单词又不认得,要写下来或者放在手机里
283and then add them to your Enki set and then study them later.然后把它们加进你的恩基套装 然后以后再研究
284So one form of intentional practice would be reviewing your Enki set to review the new所以,一种形式的故意做法是审查你的恩基套集,以审查新的
285vocabulary that you've been learning in this immersive environment.你在这个浸润的环境中学到的词汇。
286So you're actually taking advantage of the environment by learning these words and then所以,你实际上利用环境 通过学习这些词,然后
287using Enki to make sure that they stay with you.利用恩基确保他们和你在一起
288If the facet you're trying to improve is grammar, you might have heard a certain grammatical如果你试图改进的面孔是语法, 你可能已经听到某种语法
289structure that was unfamiliar to you or that you don't feel like you know very well.结构,你并不熟悉 或者你觉得自己不太清楚。
290And then you go and read an article about it, look it up, like try to understand how然后你去读一篇关于它的文章, 查一下,像试图理解如何
291it works and then maybe do one of these online quizzes to test your ability and like improve然后做一个在线测验 测试你的能力 并喜欢提高
292your ability in that.你在这方面的能力。
293When it comes to phonetics, that's my area of expertise so I can think of like a million说到口音,那是我的专业领域 所以我能想到一百万
294different examples of things that you can do like specific drills and exercises to improve不同的例子,你可以做的 像特定练习和练习 改进
295your pronunciation.你的发音。
296But on a really simple level, the best thing you can do is shadowing or reading out loud.但是在一个非常简单的层面上, 你所能做的最好的事情是 跟踪或大声读出来。
297The things that I give to my students are often more specific depending on like what我给学生的东西往往更具体 取决于什么
298specific thing they're trying to work on so that I have certain exercises related to mastering具体的事情,他们正在试图工作 这样我有一些练习 与掌握
299a certain sound or exercises related to connected speech or rhythm or things like that.一定的声音或练习与连接的语音或节奏或者类似的东西有关.
300Finally, the third tip I have for you is about your curiosity.最后,我给你的第三个提示是 你的好奇心。
301So even though you feel like you're probably improving just by being around the language所以,尽管你觉得 你可能正在改善 只是通过周围的语言
302all the time, you need to make sure that you maintain this insatiable sense of curiosity一直以来,你需要确保 你保持这种无厌的好奇心
303towards the language, like a constant hunger to continually grow your knowledge about the向着语言,就像不断的饥饿 不断增长你的知识
304language.语言。
305When I moved to Mexico, it really did supercharge my Spanish a lot, but there were these key当我搬到墨西哥时,它真的 超量加载我的西班牙语,但有这些钥匙
306things that I did to make sure that my Spanish continued to grow in this immersive environment我所做的一切 是为了确保我的西班牙人 继续在这种浸润的环境中成长
307and the immersive environment was actually like adding to my language knowledge and one和浸润的环境 实际上就像增加 我的语言知识和一个
308of those things was having the constant curiosity.那些东西一直很好奇
309But I'm going to talk about that more in just a second.但我马上就会再谈这个
310Let's take a moment to talk about these three things in order that I did in order to make让我们花点时间谈谈这三件事 为了让我做
311sure that when I moved to Mexico, I could actually take full, full, full advantage of当然,当我搬到墨西哥, 我实际上可以 完全,完全,完全的优势
312the immersion and use it to supercharge my Spanish.沉浸和用它来给我的西班牙语加压。
313So the first one is I already spoke Spanish when I moved.第一个是我搬家的时候已经说西班牙语了
314This is really, really key because as I said at the top of the video, a lot of people have这真的很,真的很关键 因为我在视频的顶部说过,很多人都有
315this idea that you can just move to a country with no knowledge and you're just going to这个想法,你可以 只是搬到一个没有知识的国家 你只是要去
316pick up the language.捡起语言.
317This is not true for all of these reasons that we saw before.由于我们以前看到的所有这些原因,情况并非如此。
318If you really don't speak the language, people aren't going to talk to you, frankly, they're如果你真的不说语言, 人们不会跟你说话,坦率地说,他们是
319just not.只是没有。
320And so when I moved to Mexico, I already had, like if we're looking at that scale of A1,所以,当我搬到墨西哥,我已经有, 像如果我们看A1的尺度,
321A2, B1, B2, I probably had like a B2 level of Spanish.A2,B1,B2,我大概有B2级的西班牙语
322So I already could basically talk about essentially any topic.所以我基本上可以谈论任何话题。
323And so what this did is it allowed people to actually be able to talk to me and for因此,它使得人们可以 真正能够和我说话,并且为
324people to actually want to talk to me because I wasn't like so beginner that I wasn't a人们真的想跟我说话 因为我不是那么刚开始的人
325decent conversationalist.正直的对话家。
326I was a good conversation partner.我是一个很好的谈话伙伴。
327If I had really like a really shaky level of Spanish when I had moved, this would have如果我真的喜欢 真正的不稳定水平的西班牙语 当我搬家,这将是
328the door on so many possible opportunities for me to speak Spanish with people and get我有很多机会可以和别人说西班牙语
329that practice.那个练习。
330So by having an actually decent level of Spanish when I moved, this granted me access to so我搬家的时候, 有了像样的西班牙语水平, 才让我有机会
331many more opportunities to speak Spanish and continue learning Spanish.有更多的机会说西班牙语和继续学习西班牙语。
332So that's number one, already speaking by the time I moved here.这是第一,在我搬来的时候已经说过了。
333And the second thing is relating to this last tip that I told you about, which is having第二件事与我告诉你的最后一点有关
334an insatiable curiosity about the language.对语言的无厌好奇
335This was really one of the biggest keys to making immersion work for me and allowing这真的是一个最大的钥匙 使浸泡工作对我来说和允许
336me to become really, really fluent in Spanish because as I said, I was at a B2 level.我变得非常,非常流利的西班牙语 因为我说过,我是在B2级。
337So I honestly, I probably could have stopped there in a way.老实说,我也许可以停在那里
338And I think for many people, it's kind of like that.我想对很多人来说, 就是这样。
339Like when you move to a country and you already speak enough of the language to get by for就像你搬到一个国家,你已经说得够多的语言了
340a lot of people, this feels kind of like the finish line because it's like I could have很多人,这感觉有点像 终点线,因为它就像我可以
341stayed at B2 and like lived my life like that and probably been okay.住在B2 喜欢过我的生活 这样,也许没事。
342And I would have made lots of mistakes, but people would have still understood me for我本来会犯很多错误 但人们还是会理解我
343the most part and it would have been fine.大部分,而且它会一直很好。
344But I love languages and I always had this goal that I wanted to speak Spanish as well但我喜欢语言,我总有这个目标 我也想说西班牙语
345as I possibly, possibly could.我可能,也许可以。
346So that's what allowed me to like maintain this insatiable hunger for knowledge around所以,这就是让我喜欢保持 这种无厌的渴望 知识周围
347the language.语言。
348So while I was immersed every day in Spanish, basically every day was more of a learning所以当我每天用西班牙语浸泡时, 基本上每一天都是一种学习
349opportunity.机会。
350So I actually have this notebook here and this notebook, I carried it around with me所以我有一本笔记本 一本笔记本,我带着它到处走
351everywhere when I first moved to Mexico.我第一次搬到墨西哥时 到处都是
352And you could say that this is kind of like my curiosity notebook.你可以说这有点像我的好奇心笔记本。
353So everything I heard that I didn't understand or that I was curious about, I wrote it down所以,我听到的一切 我不明白或好奇,我写下来
354here.在这里。
355Or for example, I always try to like make the configuration of my brain into Spanish,比如说,我总是喜欢把大脑的配置 变成西班牙语,
356like put the configuration of my brain in Spanish instead of in English.就像把我的大脑配置用西班牙语而不是用英语
357This is another really good way to practice because I was like having thoughts, you know,这是另一个很好的练习方式 因为我就像有想法,你知道,
358the same way you always have your internal monologue, but I was having it like in Spanish就像你总是有你的内部独白, 但我有它像西班牙语
359instead of in English.而不是英语。
360So I would say, oh, that's interesting.所以我会说,哦,这很有趣。
361How would I express that in Spanish?我要怎么用西班牙语表达?
362I'm not sure.我不太确定 说不定
363And then these kind of thoughts I would have, I would write them down in the notebook.然后这种想法,我会写在笔记本上。
364And one of the biggest things the notebook was for was for understanding the subjunctive.笔记本上最大的内容之一 是用来理解底线
365If you're a native speaker of Spanish, you probably don't even know what this is.如果你是西班牙语的母语, 你可能甚至不知道这是什么。
366But it's like the difference between like nosotros somos and nosotros seamos.但是,这就像鼻祖苏摩和鼻祖海摩的区别.
367The second one is like the subjunctive, which introduced this level of like unreal or like第二个像副连接, 它引入了这个级别 像不真实或类似
368hypothetical situations.假设的情况。
369So it's very difficult for non-native speakers of Spanish to grasp.因此,非母语西班牙语者很难把握.
370And in this notebook, I would write down all kinds of things and then I would go and ask在这本笔记本里 我会写下所有的东西 然后我会去问
371friends and roomies.朋友和室友们
372And it is, you know, the teacher has a very specific role in this and it is good to have这是,你知道, 老师有一个非常具体的角色 在这个,这是很好的
373a teacher.一个老师。
374I also had a teacher at the same time, but I really enjoyed these kind of conversations我也同时有个老师 但我很喜欢这种谈话
375where I would ask native speakers who were not teachers because, you know, I am a teacher.在那里,我要问那些不是老师的母语,因为我是老师。
376So I kind of knew how to ask the question in the right way to get answers from them.所以我知道如何用正确的方式问问题,从他们那里得到答案。
377And it was interesting kind of watching how I was like obligating native speakers to think有趣的是,我看着自己像 义务让本地人思考
378about their language in a way they never had before and to say, OK, why does it sound this关于他们的语言 他们从来没有过的方式, 并说,OK,为什么听起来这样
379way?怎么样?
380You know, why does it sound good this way?你知道,为什么听起来这样很好?
381And why doesn't it sound good this way?为什么听起来不好吗?
382Like, hmm, if both of them are correct, then like, what's the small change in meaning when就像,嗯,如果两者是正确的, 那么像,
383I change this one thing?我改变一件事?
384And hearing these kind of candid answers from native speakers allowed me to get a sense并听到这种 坦率的回答 从母语 使我得到感知
385for like how the language feels rather than the rules of the language.就像语言的感觉 而不是语言的规则
386For example, with the subjunctive, we all know if you are a non-native Spanish speaker例如,用副词,我们都知道你是不是非母语的西班牙人
387that the subjunctive has certain triggers.副作用有一定触发作用
388Like so when you say this and this, you know that the verb coming after should be triggered比如当你说这个和这个,你知道 后面的动词应该被触发
389into the subjunctive.进入子连接符。
390But when I would ask native speakers about these kind of things, rather than just learning但当我问本地人 有关这些事情, 不只是学习
391the rules, I was learning like how the subjunctive feels.规则,我在学习如何 亚结语的感觉。
392And that's for me, like the key to how I cracked the subjunctive and now I feel like I can那是给我的 就像我如何解开副关节的关键 现在我觉得我可以
393use it perfectly.完美地使用它。
394And I find it very fun and interesting to use.我发现它非常有趣和有趣的使用。
395So I wrote down some examples.所以我写了一些例子。
396Well, I mean, I went through the book and picked out a couple of examples.嗯,我的意思是,我翻阅了这本书 并挑选出几个例子。
397Honestly, everything in this book was really interesting from a linguistics perspective.老实说,从语言学的角度来看,这本书里的所有东西都很有趣。
398So it was hard for me to choose some.所以我很难选择一些。
399But there was a couple that I marked.但有对夫妇 我标记。
400One in particular I marked because I was thinking about it even before I opened the book, but特别的,我标记是因为我在打开书前就已经想过了,但是...
401opening the book was crazy seeing all these things that I thought, you know, all these这本书的开篇是疯狂的 看到所有这些东西 我想,你知道,所有这些
402years ago.数年前.
403But one in particular was I remember my roommate said something to me that was like, que bueno但有一个特别的是我记得我的室友 对我说的东西,就像, que bueno
404que somos rumis.来点朗姆酒
405And I kind of understood that the que bueno que could be like a subjunctive trigger.我有点理解, que bueno que 可能像一个副连接触发器。
406And so I was like, why did she say somos instead of seamos?所以我想,为什么她说 somos而不是semos?
407所以在我的书里,我写下来像 que bueno que somos 朗米斯和 que bueno que seamos。
408rumis.鲁米斯。
409And so I asked her, like, why did you say this one and not the other one?所以我问她,喜欢, 你为什么说这个而不是另一个?
410And so she really thought about it.所以她真的考虑过了
411And I remember what she said.我记得她说的话
412她就像,你知道,如果我告诉你 que bueno que somos romis, 它像的东西
413already happened that kind of proved that us already being roommates is a good thing.这证明我们已经是室友是好事
414Like we were able to watch a movie together.就像我们能一起看电影一样
415So like, that's great that we're roomies because there's already been a benefit and it's like所以,那太好了,我们是室友 因为已经有好处了,它就像
416a real benefit.一个真正的好处。
417但是,如果她说 que bueno que seamos romis, 她解释的方式是类似的东西,
418you know, this is like maybe we have newly become roomies or even if not, it's like we're你知道,这就像也许我们 刚成为室友,即使没有,它就像我们
419looking in my mind, the mind of the speaker, I'm like thinking forward to something that看着我的脑海,演讲者的脑海, 我就像在想一些事情
420in the future maybe will happen and the probability can vary a lot.未来也许会发生 概率会有很大差异
421Like maybe very probably or like maybe possibly could happen.可能有可能发生
422But it's like a future benefit that hasn't yet come to fruition.但是,这就像一个未来的好处 还没有取得成果。
423这将是 que bueno que seamos Rumis。
424So that's one example.这就是一个例子。
425I also wrote down things that just like came to my mind.我还写了些事情,我想起了
426So for example, I have one right here that says like how to talk about finishing things.比如说,我这里有一个 说到如何完成事情。
427Like for example, what's the difference between like terminar, acabar, acabarse and like all比如说,像白蚁,阿卡巴,阿卡巴 和像所有
428of this so that I get to understand how to talk about finishing things.这样我才能理解 如何谈论完成的事情。
429Let's see.让我看看。
430This almost certainly came from a book, which at one point I read Frankenstein in Spanish.这几乎肯定出自一本书, 我曾经读过弗兰肯斯坦的西班牙语。
431The translation was very good.译经甚妙.
432Frankenstein is an amazing book in English or in Spanish.弗兰肯斯坦是一本英语或西班牙语的惊人书籍.
433But anyway, I think maybe this came from this.但无论如何,我想也许这是从这个。
434上面写着 假的 la voz más dulce que yo haya escuchado.
435And I was like, why is it aya?我当时想,为什么是Aya?
436So I read that and I wrote it down.所以我读了它,我把它写下来。
437I was like, I need to understand why this is aya.我当时想,我需要理解 为什么这是Aya。
438And so then I wrote down the other possibilities.于是我记下了其他的可能性。
439Why not la voz más dulce que he escuchado or la que había escuchado?为何他不说出自己的话来?
440And so then I asked someone and I have written in parentheses here, all three are correct.于是我问了一个人,我用括号写了这三句话,都是正确的。
441And so this is interesting to me because then as a native speaker explains it to me, I can因此,这对我来说很有趣 因为,作为一个本地人 向我解释,我可以
442see that the meaning changes.见其意义变化.
443Like I could use all three of those and all three of them would be correct, but each of我可以用这三样东西 三个都没错 但每个
444them would have different meanings.他们有不同的意义。
445Another example of how I use this notebook is like when words were particularly challenging我用这本笔记本的另一个例子是 文字特别困难的时候
446for me, I would often like challenging to remember like a word that for whatever reason对我来说,我常常想挑战 记住一个词,因为任何原因
447I just couldn't remember.我只是不记得了。
448I remember I had this problem with the words cojín and cajón in Spanish.我记得我对西班牙语中的cojín和cajón有这种问题。
449It was like, I always mix these up because they're like sort of similar or whatever.这就像,我总是 混合这些 因为他们喜欢类似什么的。
450And then once I realized the connection, so for example, I, what I would do in these situations然后一旦我意识到了联系, 所以,举例来说,我,我会做什么 在这种情况下
451is go look up the etymology of the word and see where it came from originally.去查查这个词的词源 看看它最初的来源
452And this solved the issue for me.这解决了我的问题。
453So for example, cojín I learned is related to French.例如,我学到的cojín与法语有关。
454I'm going to pronounce this wrong, cousson, I guess, which stems from vulgar Latin coxinus,我要发错音了, 库森,我猜, 源自粗俗的拉丁克辛努斯,
455which means seat pad, which comes from Latin coxa, which means hip, and possibly Latin意思是座椅垫,来自拉丁coxa,意思是臀部,也可能是拉丁语
456pelvinus pillow.皮尔文纳斯枕头。
457And so the English word cushion comes from the French word cousson from the Latin coxa.因此,英语单词缓冲来自法语单词cousson,来自拉丁coxa.
458And so that means that the word cushion and cojín are connected through this shared root.也就是说,衬垫和cojín一词是通过这个共享根相连的。
459So when I think cushion, cousson, cojín, somehow in my mind, now they all connect together.所以,当我想到衬垫, 库森,cojín, 不知何故在我的脑海, 现在它们都连接在一起。
460And so now I'll never forget this word.所以现在我永远不会忘记这个词
461I'll never mess it up with cajón again.我不会再和卡琼搞混了
462And I realized that cajón is kind of like caja.我意识到卡约有点像卡约
463So it makes perfect sense.所以这很合理
464And so these are the kinds of things I was doing with this notebook.这些就是我用这本笔记本做的
465One last example, because I remember this one very specifically as well.最后一个例子,因为我记得这个非常具体的例子。
466I was talking to someone and there was a situation where like I knew something before something我和某人说话时 遇到一种情况 就像我知道一些事之前

480This notebook is like what allowed me to let my curiosity run wild with Spanish and to这本笔记本让我对西班牙语的好奇心大发

497And then eventually I did find an accent coach for Spanish and so I took a course with him.最后我找到了西班牙语的口音教练 所以我和他一起上了一个课程
498So all of this was like, you know, the actual effort that I put into making sure that my所以这一切就像,你知道, 我付出的实际努力 确保我的

12your language learning goals.您的语言学习目标 。
13When I think about this myth about immersion, it's kind of like a collective cultural myth当我想到这个关于浸泡的神话, 它有点像一个集体的文化神话
14that we all have, and I think that the reason that this myth is so enduring is because it's我认为这个神话之所以如此持久 是因为
15kind of like a romantic idea.有点像浪漫的想法。
16It's like, oh, you know, I'm just going to get rid of all my things and move to the Italian就像,哦,你知道的,我只是要去 摆脱我的一切 并搬到意大利人
17countryside, and even if I don't speak a single word of Italian when I get there, I'm just乡下,即使我不说一个意大利语 当我到达那里,我只是
18going to pick it up from interacting with the locals or going to the market and just从与当地人互动开始 或者去市场

21like it should be true.像它应该是真实的。
22I mean, like somehow logically, we think about, well, if I'm there, I'm hearing the language我的意思是,像某种逻辑, 我们思考,嗯,如果我在那里, 我听到的语言
23around me all the time, I'm interacting in it, you know, people are teaching me words总是在我身边,我在互动,你知道, 人们在教我说话
24that I don't learn and that I don't know, I'm learning these words and I'm kind of like我不学,我不知道, 我正在学习这些词 我有点像
25having to use them to express myself and get through daily life.不得不用它们来表达自己 并度过日常生活
26So like I should end up learning the language.所以我应该学习语言。
27But try to think about if you know anyone who's lived in another country for a long想想你是否认识一个 在别的国家生活了很久的人
28time and doesn't really speak the language.时间和不真正说语言。
29We can see so many examples of this being true, and I think it's kind of a spectrum我们可以看到这么多的例子 这是真实的, 我认为这是一种光谱
30because I've met people on different parts of the spectrum.因为我在谱系的不同部分见过人
31Like I've met people who have lived in another country for many years and they do speak the就像我见过的人 谁住在另一个国家 多年,他们确实说
32language like they understand everything they hear and they manage to get by in the language,语言就像他们理解 他们听到的一切 他们设法通过语言,
33but they never really sound fluent and they never really feel fully fluent.但他们从来没有真正听起来流利 他们从来没有真正感到完全流利。
34Like they always feel like the language is a handicap and that it would be better if就像他们总觉得语言有缺陷 如果
35they could just speak their native language.他们只能说他们的母语。
36On the other hand, I have met people who have lived in countries for like a really long另一方面,我遇见了 住在国家里的人,他们像一个很长的
37time, you know, like 20 plus years and really don't speak the language at all.时间,你知道,像20多年 和真的不说语言 在所有。
38Like, I mean, maybe the basic, basic phrases, but not anything past that.比如,我意思是,也许基本,基本的短语, 但不是任何过去。
39And so this kind of disproves our myth that immersion alone is going to teach you a language.因此,这种否定了我们的神话: 独自沉浸将教你一种语言。
40And so if that's not the case, then what is?所以,如果不是这样, 那么是什么?
41I'm not saying immersion doesn't work.我不是说浸泡不行
42It certainly does, but you have to do it the right way, which I will talk about in just当然,但你必须做正确的方式, 我会谈论的只是
43a bit in the video.在视频里有点。
44But first I want to talk about the reasons why.但首先我想谈谈原因
45The number one reason is that if you take away only one thing from this video, it should头一个原因是,如果你从这段视频中只拿走一件事,它应该
46be this at the end of the day, learning a language is always going to require effort学习语言总是需要努力
47on your part.就你来说
48Learning a language is not something that happens by accident.学习一种语言不是偶然发生的。
49But besides that, there are some specific reasons why immersion alone isn't going to但除此之外, 有一些具体的理由 为何独自沉浸不会
50really help you learn the language.真的帮助你学习语言。
51And let's start with the first reason, which is kind of like geared towards beginners.让我们从第一个原因开始, 这有点像面向初学者。
52Like if you, you know, in this kind of idealized version that I, that I described at the beginning,就像你,你知道,在这种理想化的版本 我,我在开始描述,
53you just arrive at a, at a certain country, in a certain country rather, where you don't你只是来到某个国家, 某个国家, 某个国家,你没有
54speak a word of the language.说一个语言。
55If you're a beginner, native speakers will pick up on that and they will do one of two如果你是初学者, 本地人会接听, 他们会做两个之一
56things.东西。
57They will switch languages or they will avoid talking to you.他们会调换语言,或者避免和你说话。
58So let's say that you're trying to speak in this language and like, maybe you can do所以,让我们假设你试图 用这种语言说话, 像,也许你可以
59basic stuff.基本的东西。
60Like you can say, hello, good morning.就像你可以说,你好,早上好。
61And you can do like a coffee order or order in a restaurant or something like that.你可以做一个咖啡 订购在餐馆或类似的东西。
62But at the end of the day, like the people, the native speakers, the waiters, you know,但到了最后,像人民, 母语,服务员,你知道,
63whoever, they're going to pick up on the fact that while you might know some basics,不管是谁,他们都会发现 你可能知道一些基本知识
64you don't really speak this language.你真的不会说这种语言。
65And when that happens, like I said, one of two things, they'll either switch languages就像我说过的,两件事之一 他们要么换语言
66to you.给你的。
67Like, you know, if you're in a touristy area, they'll probably switch to English with you喜欢,你知道,如果你在一个旅游区, 他们可能会转换为英语和你在一起
68or, you know, whatever the case may be.或者,你知道,不管情况如何。
69Or if they speak your language, they might switch to that language with you, but they或者如果他们说出你的语言, 他们可能会跟你换语言,但他们
70might switch languages because they think they're being helpful to you because they可能换语言,因为他们认为 他们帮助你,因为他们
71can hear you struggling and they might not think of it like, oh, well, they want to practice.听到你在挣扎 他们可能不会想到他们想练习
72And so they'll just switch languages or they will avoid talking to you.所以他们只会切换语言 或者避免和你说话
73I mean, obviously they'll continue talking to you if they're like your waiter and they're我的意思是,很明显,他们会继续和你说话 如果他们是你的服务生和他们
74taking your order.接受你的订单。
75But imagine it's more of like, you know, a social situation where you're trying to但想象一下,这更像是,你知道, 一个社会状况,你试图
76chat and like do small talk and make friends.聊天和做小说和交朋友
77It sounds kind of harsh, but like people will somewhat avoid talking to you.这听起来有点苛刻, 但像人们会 有点避免和你说话。
78And I don't think it comes from a mean place.我不认为它来自一个恶劣的地方。
79I think what it is, is they can sense the lack of fluency.我认为,这是什么, 他们能感觉到缺乏流利。
80And so avoiding talking to you that much is kind of their natural reaction because the所以,避免和你说话 很多是 他们自然的反应,因为
81underlying assumption is, OK, I can hear them.基本假设是,好吧,我可以听到他们。
82They don't sound very fluent.听起来不太流利
83And so they don't really speak this language.所以他们不会说这种语言。
84So if I talk to them, they're not really going to understand what I say.所以如果我和他们说话, 他们不会真正理解我说的话。
85And so naturally, they kind of avoid talking to you that much.自然,他们会避免和你说话
86Again, it might sound mean, but try to put yourself in their shoes or like maybe think再说一遍,听起来可能很刻薄 但试着让自己站在他们的立场上
87of this.这个
88Think if this has happened to you.想想这是否发生在你身上。
89Like, have you ever talked to someone who is really a beginner in your language and喜欢,你曾经与一个 真正的初学者 你的语言和
90maybe the things they say, you don't even really fully understand them or they don't也许他们说的话,你甚至不 完全理解他们或者他们不
91make a lot of sense.说得有道理
92It's like, well, if they if I can't really understand what they're saying and they're这就像,嗯,如果他们 如果我不能真正理解 他们说什么,他们是
93speaking my language, like, how are they going to understand me if I talk to them?说出我的语言,喜欢, 他们会如何理解我 如果我与他们说话?
94So we just all in that situation kind of have a natural inclination to avoid talking to所以,我们只是所有在这种情况下 有种自然的倾向 避免说话
95that person or, as I mentioned in the beginning, switching languages so that we can actually那个人,或者,正如我在开头提到的, 切换语言,这样我们就可以实际上
96converse with them.与他们交谈。
97So that's the first reason that immersion isn't really going to work for you, immersion所以,这是第一个原因 浸泡不会真正为你工作,浸泡
98alone, especially if you are just moving to another country as a complete beginner in独自一人,特别是如果你只是搬到另一个国家 作为一个完整的初学者
99this language.这种语言。
100The other reason is that native speakers won't correct you.另一个原因是说本地话的人不会纠正你.
101And this applies a little bit more to people beyond the beginner phase of language learning.这更适用于语言学习初学者。
102So if you do actually speak this language somewhat, but you're not like a totally fluent所以如果你真的会说这种语言 但你不像一个完全流利的人
103speaker, you're maybe upper beginner or like intermediate or something like that.扬声器,你可能是上位初学者 或者像中间人物之类的
104The problem that you'll run into now is that native speakers won't correct you because你现在遇到的问题是 讲母语的人不会纠正你
105like if they are talking to you, as long as they understand the main idea of what you're就像他们跟你说话一样 只要他们理解你是什么
106trying to say, they're not going to correct whatever mistakes that you made.他们不会纠正你犯下的任何错误
107And once again, this isn't coming from a bad place.再说一遍,这不是从一个坏地方来的
108It's usually one of two things.通常为两件事之一.
109And the first one is they are assuming that it would be rude of them to correct your English第一个是他们假设 他们纠正你的英语很不礼貌
110or Spanish or insert language here.或西班牙语或在此插入语言。
111And in a way, they're actually kind of right in assuming that the thing about giving corrections从某种意义上说,他们实际上 假设 做修正的事情
112is it's kind of, it's like a delicate thing.是那种, 它就像一个微妙的东西。
113You know, like for example, I am a non-native speaker of Spanish and I feel pretty good举个例子,我是不会说西班牙语的,我感觉很好
114about my fluency, right?关于我的流利,对不对?
115But obviously there are still situations where I'll make mistakes and not in every one of但显然还是有些情况 我会犯错误 而不是在每一个
116those situations do I want someone to correct me.那些情况我想有人纠正我
117It depends who that person is, what their relationship is to me, what the context of这取决于这个人是谁, 他们和我的关系,什么背景
118the situation is.情况是这样的。
119But then on the other hand, there will be some situations where I would like someone但另一方面,有些情况下我想找个人
120to correct me.来纠正我
121And if you're talking to a stranger in like a, like I said, customer service sort of situation如果你和陌生人说话 就像我说的 客户服务之类的情况
122or a social situation, that stranger is not really going to know if they, if they're okay或社会状况, 那个陌生人不会真正知道 他们,如果他们没事
123to correct you, you know?要纠正你,你知道吗?
124So most of the time they won't because it could be rude and likely would be rude to所以大部分时间他们不会 因为那样可能很粗鲁 也可能很粗鲁
125do so.这样做。
126But the other part of this is that native speakers are not teachers and it is a specific但另一部分是讲母语的人不是老师,
127ability.能力。 能力。
128Like it might seem kind of easy because we all, you know, speak our native language and可能看起来很简单 因为我们都说我们的母语
129understand what sounds good and what doesn't, but the role of a teacher is very specific.理解什么听起来好,什么没有, 但教师的角色是非常具体的。
130It's like a certain ability that you have in order to hear mistakes, point them out这就像你一定的能力 为了听到错误,指出它们
131in the right way and coach the person into the correct answer in the right way.以正确的方式将人引导到正确的答案中
132So native speakers are not all going to be good at this and I have personal experience所以说本地话的人不会都擅长这个 我有个人经验
133with this because for example, my boyfriend is a native Spanish speaker.我男朋友是讲西班牙语的土生土长
134He's from Mexico and there are many times when I kind of wish he could help me with他来自墨西哥 我曾多次希望他能帮我
135my Spanish in certain ways, especially when like, I know there's a specific word that我的西班牙语在某些方面, 特别是当喜欢, 我知道有一个特定的词
136I've heard before that fits in a situation and I kind of try to say like, oh, I'm looking我之前听过那种情况 我想说,哦,我看着
137for this word that's like this and da, da, da, da, da.对于这个词,就像这个和达,达,达,达。
138Like he, he really, because he's not a teacher, he's not a trained language teacher.和他一样,他真的,因为他不是老师,也不是受过训练的语言老师.
139He doesn't always help me in the way that maybe I would like for him to do so, you know?他并不总是帮助我的方式 也许我会希望他这样做,你知道吗?
140And so you watching this video, if you have people in your life who are native speakers所以,你看这视频, 如果你有的人在你的生活中 谁是母语
141of the language you're trying to learn, you can probably relate to this.在你试图学习的语言中, 你也许可以涉及到这一点。
142Just regular normal native speakers aren't teachers.只是普通的母语不是老师
143And so sometimes when you kind of wish they could help you, sometimes they might try,所以有时当你有点希望 他们可以帮助你, 有时他们可能尝试,
144but they can't really help.但他们帮不了忙
145The third reason you're going to struggle is because native speakers will not correct你挣扎的第三个原因是 讲母语的人不会纠正
146your pronunciation.你的发音。
147Once you're beyond beginner and intermediate levels and you become like an advanced speaker一旦你超越初学者和中级水平 你就变成一个高级演说家
148of the language, you're going to have probably pretty high levels of vocabulary and grammar,在语言中,你可能会有 相当高的词汇和语法水平,
149but not necessarily high levels of pronunciation and phonetics.但不一定是高发音和语音.
150This is what happens to a lot of my students.我很多学生都这样
151They've lived in the US for a long time.他们在美国生活了很久
152Their level of English is very, very high.他们的英语水平非常,非常高.
153They can understand everything they hear, even with fast speech, even with slang and他们能理解他们听到的一切, 即使用快速的言语, 甚至用口号和
154all of these kinds of things.所有这些事情。
155And they can say basically anything they want to say in English, but they haven't learned他们基本上可以用英语说出他们想说的话,但他们还没有学到
156necessarily the phonemes of English, like the specific sounds that we use in English一定是英语的电话 就像我们用英语发的
157that are not used in their native language.他们的母语没有使用。
158And this is going to hinder their comprehension or, I mean, hinder the way that other people这将会妨碍他们的理解 或者,我的意思是,阻碍别人的方式
159comprehend them.理解他们。
160So how can someone live in a country for a long time and not ever really pick up the所以一个人怎么能在一个国家 生活了很长时间 从来没有真正拿起
161accent?口音吗?
162It's kind of what we saw before, right?这是我们以前看到的,对不对?
163So mastering the accent isn't something that happens by accident.所以掌握口音不是偶然发生的
164It's something that you actually need to try to do and put an effort to do.这是你真正需要做的 并努力去做。
165Maybe if you're very young, it might happen to you.也许如果你很年轻,它可能会发生在你身上。
166Like for example, I have a friend who moved to the US when he was 15 and he has like a比如说,我有个朋友 他15岁时搬到美国 他就像一个
167nearly native accent in English, and I think that's because at that age, a lot of those几乎是英语的本地口音, 我想这是因为在那个年龄, 很多这些
168processes in the mind and in the muscles we use for articulation are kind of still going心灵和肌肉中的过程 被我们用来表达
169on that allowed him to really mimic what he heard and start speaking like a native speaker.这让他能模仿他听到的 开始像本地人一样说话
170But for most of us who start learning a language when we are later in life or older, it's something但对我们大多数人来说,当我们晚年或更年长时 开始学习一种语言, 这是一种东西
171that you're going to have to make an effort to do.你必须努力去做
172Like for example, Spanish is my second language and I think I have a pretty good accent in比如说,西班牙语是我的第二语言 我想我的口音不错
173Spanish, but that's because I tried.西班牙语,但那是因为我试过。
174From the beginning, it was always my goal to sound like a native speaker.从一开始,我的目标总是 听起来像一个母语。
175And so from the beginning, I was doing different exercises and drills and things like that所以从一开始,我一直在做不同的练习 钻孔之类的事情
176in order to develop my ability to speak the language, right?为了培养我讲语言的能力,对不对?
177Using the same sounds that native speakers do.使用同样的声音 当地人说话。
178I also worked with an accent coach, so if I have a good accent in Spanish, it's because我也和口音教练一起工作 所以如果我有很好的西班牙语口音 是因为
179I really tried to do so.我真的想这样做。
180And the same is true for whatever your language is that you're learning.无论你的语言是什么,你正在学习。
181And similar to our last point as well, native speakers won't correct you for basically the和我们的最后一点一样, 母语不会纠正你基本上
182same reasons we talked about before.我们之前讨论过的原因一样
183They're going to think it's going to be rude and a lot of cases they might kind of be right他们会觉得这很无礼 很多案件他们可能是对的
184about that and they're not teachers.他们不是老师
185Something that native speakers are exceptionally good at doing is hearing when something doesn't讲土语的人特别擅长做一些事 就是听到一些东西不听的话
186sound right.听起来不错。
187So if you have different pronunciation than what they're used to hearing, they're going所以,如果你有不同的发音 比他们习惯听,他们去
188to know that it sounds different.要知道这听起来不同。
189And they're going to know you have an accent, but they are not good at saying why it sounds他们会知道你有口音 但他们不擅长说为什么听起来
190different and how to fix it.和如何修复它。
191So that's kind of why you have to work with an accent coach if that's the thing that you所以,这就是为什么你必须工作 与口音教练,如果这是你的事情
192want to work on.想继续工作
193The other thing about native speakers not correcting you is kind of the question of另一种关于母语的人不纠正你的问题就是
194like, why would they?为什么?
195As long as they understand you in the end, it's kind of more efficient for them to just只要他们最终能理解你 他们就更有效率
196keep it moving.继续走
197Like it wouldn't be efficient from a time perspective for them to stop everything and就像从时间角度来说 阻止一切是无效的
198say, oh, well, you said this word kind of like this and the correct pronunciation is说,哦,好吧,你说这个词 像这样,正确的发音是
199like this.像这样
200And so you need to do this.所以,你需要做到这一点。
201Like, why would they do that if at the end of the day they understood what you said?如果最后他们明白你的话 他们为什么要这么做?
202So that's why we can't rely on just immersion to master another language in terms of all所以我们不能只靠沉浸 掌握另一种语言
203of these factors like grammar, vocabulary, and also accent and pronunciation.包括语法,词汇,以及重音和发音等这些因素.
204Essentially under these circumstances, your language abilities are never going to magically基本上在这种情况下,你的语言能力 永远不会神奇
205improve on their own.自己改进。
206So how do we overcome this?那么,我们如何克服这些?
207You want to use this immersion that you have to your advantage because it is an incredibly你想用这种沉浸 对你有好处,因为它是一个不可思议的
208powerful tool.强大的工具。
209But as I said, there's a right way and a wrong way to do it.但如我所说有正法不善法.
210So there are three tips I'm going to give you here of ways that you can kind of overcome因此,有三个提示,我给你 在这里的方式,你可以克服
211these obstacles.这些障碍。
212And then after that, I'm going to tell you about specifically kind of what I did when之后,我会告诉你 具体地说,我做了什么
213I moved to Mexico that really helped me make the most of the immersion of being constantly我搬到了墨西哥,这真的帮助我 尽可能地沉浸在不断
214around Spanish, which I was learning at the time to actually become really fluent in Spanish.我当时正在学西班牙语 真正能流利的西班牙语
215But first, let's start with these three tips or tools that I think you should integrate.但首先,让我们从这三个小说或工具开始,我认为你应该加以整合。
216And the first one is working with an actual teacher.而第一个是和真正的老师一起工作.
217Even if you're living in the place where they speak the language that you're learning, as即使你住的地方 他们说话 你学习的语言,作为
218we've already looked at, immersion alone isn't enough for a variety of reasons.我们已经研究过了 光是浸泡还不够 原因很多
219And most of those reasons are related to native speakers not really being equipped to help这些原因大多都与 当地人没有真正能力帮助
220you for a variety of reasons.你因为各种原因。
221So when you work with an actual teacher, in a teaching environment, corrections aren't所以,当你与一个真正的老师合作, 在教学环境中,矫正不是
222considered rude.认为粗鲁。
223You know, native speakers won't correct you because it's going to be rude.你知道, 讲母语的人不会纠正你, 因为这将是无礼的。
224But the teacher, that's what you're paying them to do.但是老师,那是你付钱让他们做的。
225So they will offer you corrections.他们将给你改正。
226And the other thing is that we've talked a lot about how native speakers aren't necessarily另一件事是,我们已经谈了很多 如何使用本地语
227trained as teachers, and so they're not equipped to really coach and guide you.被训练为教师, 所以他们没有真正 教练和指导你。
228But a teacher is.但师是.
229So when you do make a mistake and they do correct you, they're going to be able to help所以当你犯了错误 他们纠正了你 他们会帮助你
230you understand the concept and coach you to doing it the right way.你明白这个概念 并指导你以正确的方式去做
231And also, a teacher is patient.师亦有忍.
232So when you're living in another country and are living your life, you have to consider所以,当你生活在另一个国家, 生活你的生活, 你必须考虑
233that the native speakers you're interacting with, they're often just living their lives与你互动的土著演说家 他们常常只是过着自己的生活
234as well.临Τ
235And so they're going to choose, many times, the most efficient way to do things.所以他们要选择,很多次,最有效的方法来做事情。
236And a lot of times, the most efficient way to do things is not to offer corrections or很多时候,最有效的方法 做事情 不提供纠正或
237help you with your language abilities.帮助您掌握语言能力。
238As long as they understood you, they're just going to keep it moving because, you know,只要他们了解你,他们就会继续移动 因为,你知道,
239for time's sake.因为时间的原因。
240But when you're working with a teacher, their job is to help you improve your language abilities.但是当你和老师一起工作的时候,他们的工作就是帮助你提高语言能力.
241So they are going to be patient with you and take the time to explain why something was所以他们要耐心对待你 慢慢解释为什么
242wrong and how you can make it better.错误和如何使它更好。
243So for example, something that happens a lot in my classes is that students say a word比如说,我上课时经常发生的事情 就是学生说一句话
244wrong, and I don't understand the word at all.我完全听不懂这个词
245Like I literally don't know what they said.好像我不知道他们说了什么
246But then a couple words later, my brain catches up and I figure out what it was they said.但后来我说了几句话, 我的大脑赶上了,我知道他们说了什么。
247That could be from the context of the words that they said after, or I don't know, my这可能是从他们说的话的背景 之后,或者我不知道,我的
248brain just had like a four second delay and I finally was like, ah, okay, that was the大脑只有四秒钟的延迟 我终于...
249word.词
250But that's not the experience that I want my students to have in the real world with但这不是我想要我的学生在现实世界中拥有的经验
251their English.他们的英语。
252Like I don't want them to be speaking English and the people listening to them have to have就像我不希望他们说英语 和人们听他们的有
253this four second buffer period to realize what they said.这4个第二个缓冲期 以实现他们说的话。
254I want it to be instant so that your message is properly transmitted the first time that我希望它立刻,以便你的消息 正确传递在第一次,
255you speak.你说话。
256So even though I understood the word, I still take the time to explain it.因此,尽管我理解这个词,我仍然需要时间来解释它。
257In a real life scenario with a native speaker, they hear the word, they don't understand在现实生活中 讲母语的人 听到这个词 他们不懂
258and then their brain catches up or the context makes it clear what the word was, they're然后他们的大脑赶上 或背景 清楚它是什么词,他们是
259just going to move on because at the end of the day they understood you.只是要继续前进,因为最后 他们理解你。
260But as a teacher, I'm going to pause and say, okay, when you said that word, at first I但是作为一个老师,我要暂停 说,好吧,当你说这个词,一开始我
261didn't understand it because you said it like this and it should be like this.不理解,因为你这样说 应该是这样
262So can we try that again?我们能再试一次吗?
263So that's another reason it's important to work with a teacher.所以这是另一个与老师合作很重要的原因.
264The second thing that I recommend that you try to do to kind of overcome these obstacles我建议你努力克服这些障碍
265for immersion is intentional practice.浸润是故意的行为。
266When you're living in the place where they speak the language, you're going to feel like当你住在他们讲语言的地方 你会觉得
267you're doing practice all day, every day anyways, because you're going out, you're speaking,你整天都在练习 每天都在练习 因为你要出去 你说
268you're hearing the language all around you and that is true, you are practicing.你听到你周围的语言 这是真的,你在练习。
269But what I'm talking about is something else.但我说的是别的东西。
270It's intentional practice.谓有意修行.
271Something that you do alone, maybe one-on-one with a teacher, but more so like something你单独做的一些事情,也许一对一 老师,但更喜欢的东西
272that you probably do alone.你可能一个人做。
273And I'm not going to go in a ton of depth into like a bunch of examples of this.我不会在一吨深的深度 进入到像这一系列的例子。
274I'm going to give a few examples so you get the idea.我要举几个例子,让你明白这个想法。
275But the training or exercises that you do is going to depend on what facet of your language但你的训练或练习 取决于你语言的方方面面
276you're trying to improve.你试图改进。
277And the constant immersion that you're experiencing is going to help guide your focus.你所经历的不断的沉浸 将帮助引导你的注意力。
278So if you notice this thing is hard or this thing is hard, that's where you're going to所以,如果你注意到这个东西是难的 或这个东西是难的, 这就是你要去的地方
279practice, that's where you're going to focus your practice.练习,这就是你要去 集中你的练习。
280So I like to divide language abilities into three, which are vocabulary, grammar, and所以我喜欢将语言能力分为三个,即词汇、语法和
281phonetics.电话
282So for vocabulary, for example, you guys already know I love Anki, the app, which is totally举例来说,关于词汇,你们已经知道我爱安琪了,这个应用是完全的
283free.免费。
284I have a video explaining how to set that up, but anyways, if you notice that you hear我有一个视频解释如何设置, 但无论如何,如果你注意到你听到
285words and you don't recognize them, you need to write those down or put them in your phone单词又不认得,要写下来或者放在手机里
286and then add them to your Anki set and then study them later.然后把它们加进你的安琪套装 然后再研究
287So one form of intentional practice would be reviewing your Anki set to review the new因此,一种形式的故意做法是审查你的安琪套件,以审查新的
288vocabulary that you've been learning in this immersive environment.你在这个浸润的环境中学到的词汇。
289So you're actually taking advantage of the environment by learning these words and then所以,你实际上利用环境 通过学习这些词,然后
290using Anki to make sure that they stay with you.利用安琪确保他们和你在一起
291If the facet you're trying to improve is grammar, you might have heard a certain grammatical如果你试图改进的面孔是语法, 你可能已经听到某种语法
292structure that was unfamiliar to you or that you don't feel like you know very well.结构,你并不熟悉 或者你觉得自己不太清楚。
293And then you go and read an article about it, look it up, like try to understand how然后你去读一篇关于它的文章, 查一下,像试图理解如何
294it works and then maybe do one of these online quizzes to test your ability and like improve然后做一个在线测验 测试你的能力 并喜欢提高
295your ability in that.你在这方面的能力。
296When it comes to phonetics, that's my area of expertise, so I can think of like a million说到口语,那是我的专业领域 所以我可以想到一百万
297different examples of things that you can do, like specific drills and exercises to不同的例子,你可以做的东西, 如具体的练习和练习
298improve your pronunciation.提高你的读音。
299But on a really simple level, the best thing you can do is shadowing or reading out loud.但是在一个非常简单的层面上, 你所能做的最好的事情是 跟踪或大声读出来。
300The things that I give to my students are often more specific, depending on like what我给学生的东西往往更具体 取决于什么
301specific thing they're trying to work on so that I have certain exercises related to mastering具体的事情,他们正在试图工作 这样我有一些练习 与掌握
302a certain sound or exercises related to connected speech or rhythm or things like that.一定的声音或练习与连接的语音或节奏或者类似的东西有关.
303Finally, the third tip I have for you is about your curiosity.最后,我给你的第三个提示是 你的好奇心。
304So even though you feel like you're probably improving just by being around the language所以,尽管你觉得 你可能正在改善 只是通过周围的语言
305all the time, you need to make sure that you maintain this insatiable sense of curiosity一直以来,你需要确保 你保持这种无厌的好奇心
306towards the language, like a constant hunger to continually grow your knowledge about the向着语言,就像不断的饥饿 不断增长你的知识
307language.语言。
308When I moved to Mexico, it really did supercharge my Spanish a lot, but there were these key当我搬到墨西哥时,它真的 超量加载我的西班牙语,但有这些钥匙
309things that I did to make sure that my Spanish continued to grow in this immersive environment,我做了一些事情来确保我的西班牙语 继续在这种浸润的环境中生长,
310and the immersive environment was actually like adding to my language knowledge.而浸润的环境 实际上就像增加了我的语言知识。
311One of those things was having the constant curiosity, but I'm going to talk about that其中一个是一直好奇 但我要谈谈
312more in just a second.再过一会儿
313Let's take a moment to talk about these three things in order that I did in order to make让我们花点时间谈谈这三件事 为了让我做
314sure that when I moved to Mexico, I could actually take full, full, full advantage of当然,当我搬到墨西哥, 我实际上可以 完全,完全,完全的优势
315the immersion and use it to supercharge my Spanish.沉浸和用它来给我的西班牙语加压。
316The first one is I already spoke Spanish when I moved.第一个是我搬家的时候已经说西班牙语了
317This is really, really key because as I said at the top of the video, a lot of people have这真的很,真的很关键 因为我在视频的顶部说过,很多人都有
318this idea that you can just move to a country with no knowledge and you're just going to这个想法,你可以 只是搬到一个没有知识的国家 你只是要去
319pick up the language.捡起语言.
320This is not true for all of these reasons that we saw before.由于我们以前看到的所有这些原因,情况并非如此。
321If you really don't speak the language, people aren't going to talk to you, frankly.如果你真的不说语言, 人们不会跟你说话,坦率地说。
322They're just not.他们只是没有。
323And so when I moved to Mexico, I already had, like if we're looking at that scale of A1,所以,当我搬到墨西哥,我已经有, 像如果我们看A1的尺度,
324A2, B1, B2, I probably had like a B2 level of Spanish.A2,B1,B2,我大概有B2级的西班牙语
325So I already could basically talk about essentially any topic.所以我基本上可以谈论任何话题。
326And so what this did is it allowed people to actually be able to talk to me and for因此,它使得人们可以 真正能够和我说话,并且为
327people to actually want to talk to me because I wasn't like so beginner that I wasn't a人们真的想跟我说话 因为我不是那么刚开始的人
328decent conversationalist.正直的对话家。
329I was a good conversation partner.我是一个很好的谈话伙伴。
330If I had really like a really shaky level of Spanish when I had moved, this would have如果我真的喜欢 真正的不稳定水平的西班牙语 当我搬家,这将是
331the door on so many possible opportunities for me to speak Spanish with people and get我有很多机会可以和别人说西班牙语
332that practice.那个练习。
333So by having an actually decent level of Spanish when I moved, this granted me access to so我搬家的时候, 有了像样的西班牙语水平, 才让我有机会
334many more opportunities to speak Spanish and continue learning Spanish.有更多的机会说西班牙语和继续学习西班牙语。
335So that's number one, already speaking by the time I moved here.这是第一,在我搬来的时候已经说过了。
336And the second thing is relating to this last tip that I told you about, which is having第二件事与我告诉你的最后一点有关
337an insatiable curiosity about the language.对语言的无厌好奇
338This was really one of the biggest keys to making immersion work for me and allowing这真的是一个最大的钥匙 使浸泡工作对我来说和允许
339me to become really, really fluent in Spanish, because as I said, I was at a B2 level.我变得非常,非常流利的西班牙语, 因为正如我所说的,我是一个B2级。
340So I honestly, I probably could have stopped there in a way.老实说,我也许可以停在那里
341And I think for many people, it's kind of like that, like when you move to a country我想对很多人来说,就像你搬到一个国家一样
342and you already speak enough of the language to get by for a lot of people, this feels你已经说得够多 语言可以让很多人通过, 这感觉
343kind of like the finish line, because it's like I could have stayed at B2 and lived my有点像终点线,因为我仿佛可以留在B2,过着自己的生活
344life like that and probably been OK.那样的生活,也许还好。
345And I would have made lots of mistakes, but people would have still understood me for我本来会犯很多错误 但人们还是会理解我
346the most part and it would have been fine.大部分,而且它会一直很好。
347But I love languages and I always had this goal that I wanted to speak Spanish as well但我喜欢语言,我总有这个目标 我也想说西班牙语
348as I possibly, possibly could.我可能,也许可以。
349So that's what allowed me to maintain this insatiable hunger for knowledge around the所以,这就是让我保持 这种无厌的渴望 知识周围
350language.语言。
351So while I was immersed every day in Spanish, basically every day was more of所以当我每天用西班牙语浸泡时 基本上每天更像是
352a learning opportunity.一个学习的机会。
353So I actually have this notebook here and this notebook, I carried it around with me所以我有一本笔记本 一本笔记本,我带着它到处走
354everywhere when I first moved to Mexico.我第一次搬到墨西哥时 到处都是
355And you could say that this is kind of like my curiosity notebook.你可以说这有点像我的好奇心笔记本。
356So everything I heard that I didn't understand or that I was curious about, I wrote it down所以,我听到的一切 我不明白或好奇,我写下来
357here.在这里。
358Or, for example, I always try to like make the configuration of my brain into或者,比如,我总是尝试 使我的大脑配置
359Spanish, like put the configuration of my brain in Spanish instead of in English.西班牙语,就像把我的大脑配置用西班牙语而不是用英语。
360This is another really good way to practice, because I was like having thoughts, you know,这是另一个很好的练习方式, 因为我喜欢有想法,你知道,
361the same way you always have your internal monologue.就像你总是有你的内部独白。
362But I was having it like in Spanish instead of in English.但我用西班牙语而不是英语
363So I would say, oh, that's interesting.所以我会说,哦,这很有趣。
364How would I express that in Spanish?我要怎么用西班牙语表达?
365I'm not sure.我不太确定 说不定
366And these kind of thoughts I would have, I would write them down in the我会把这些想法写在
367notebook.笔记本。
368And one of the biggest things the notebook was for was for understanding the笔记本上最重要的一件事 就是理解
369subjunctive.子节点。
370If you're a native speaker of Spanish, you probably don't even know what如果你是西班牙语的母语, 你可能甚至不知道什么
371this is.这是。
372But it's like the difference between like nosotros somos and nosotros seamos or但是这就像鼻音和鼻音的区别
373like nosotros fuimos or nosotros fuéramos.像诺索托斯·富伊莫斯或者诺索托斯·富埃拉莫斯
374The second one is like the subjunctive, which introduced this level of like unreal or like第二个像副连接, 它引入了这个级别 像不真实或类似
375hypothetical situations.假设的情况。
376So it's very difficult for non-native speakers of Spanish to grasp.因此,非母语西班牙语者很难把握.
377And in this notebook, I would write down all kinds of things.在这本笔记本里,我会记下所有的事情。
378And then I would go and ask friends and roomies.然后我会去问朋友和室友
379And it is, you know, the teacher has a very specific role in this and it is good to have这是,你知道, 老师有一个非常具体的角色 在这个,这是很好的
380a teacher.一个老师。
381I also had a teacher at the same time, but I really enjoyed these kind of conversations我也同时有个老师 但我很喜欢这种谈话
382where I would ask native speakers who were not teachers because, you know, I am a teacher,我问那些不是老师的本地人, 因为我是老师,
383so I kind of knew how to ask the question in the right way to get answers from them.所以我知道怎么用正确的方式问问题 才能从他们那里得到答案
384And it was interesting kind of watching how I was like obligating native speakers to think有趣的是,我看着自己像 义务让本地人思考
385about their language in a way they never had before and to say, OK, why does it sound this关于他们的语言 他们从来没有过的方式, 并说,OK,为什么听起来这样
386way?怎么样?
387You know, why does it sound good this way?你知道,为什么听起来这样很好?
388And why doesn't it sound good this way?为什么听起来不好吗?
389Like, hmm, if both of them are correct, then like, what's the small change in meaning when就像,嗯,如果两者是正确的, 那么像,
390I change this one thing?我改变一件事?
391And hearing these kind of candid answers from native speakers allowed me to get a sense并听到这种 坦率的回答 从母语 使我得到感知
392for like how the language feels rather than the rules of the language.就像语言的感觉 而不是语言的规则
393For example, with the subjunctive, we all know if you are a non-native Spanish speaker例如,用副词,我们都知道你是不是非母语的西班牙人
394that the subjunctive has certain triggers.副作用有一定触发作用
395Like so when you say this and this, you know that the verb coming after should be triggered比如当你说这个和这个,你知道 后面的动词应该被触发
396into the subjunctive.进入子连接符。
397But when I would ask native speakers about these kind of things, rather than just learning但当我问本地人 有关这些事情, 不只是学习
398the rules, I was learning like how the subjunctive feels.规则,我在学习如何 亚结语的感觉。
399And that's for me, like the key to how I cracked the subjunctive.那是给我的 就像我如何解开副关节的关键
400And now I feel like I can use it perfectly.现在我觉得我可以完美地使用它。
401And I find it very fun and interesting to use.我发现它非常有趣和有趣的使用。
402So I wrote down some examples.所以我写了一些例子。

411Que bueno que somos rumis. 中国植物物种信息数据库.
412And I kind of understood that the que bueno que could be like a subjunctive trigger.我有点理解, que bueno que 可能像一个副连接触发器。
413And so I was like, why did she say somos instead of seamos?所以我想,为什么她说 somos而不是semos?
414所以在我的书里,我写下了 象 que bueno que somos 朗米斯和 que bueno que seamos 朗米斯。
415And so I asked her, like, why did you say this one and not the other one?所以我问她,喜欢, 你为什么说这个而不是另一个?
416And so she really thought about it.所以她真的考虑过了

424you know, this is like maybe we have newly become roomies or even if not, it's like we're你知道,这就像也许我们 刚成为室友,即使没有,它就像我们
425looking in my mind, the mind of the speaker, I'm like thinking forward to something that看着我的脑海,演讲者的脑海, 我就像在想一些事情
426in the future maybe will happen and the probability can vary a lot.未来也许会发生 概率会有很大差异

431I also wrote down things that just like came to my mind.我还写了些事情,我想起了
432So for example, I have one right here that says like how to talk about finishing things.比如说,我这里有一个 说到如何完成事情。
433Like for example, what's the difference between like terminar, acabar, acabarse and like all比如说,像白蚁,阿卡巴,阿卡巴 和像所有
434of this so that I could understand how to talk about finishing things.这样我才能理解 如何谈论完成的事情。
435Let's see.让我看看。
436This almost certainly came from a book which at one point I read Frankenstein in Spanish.这几乎肯定出自一本书, 我曾经读过弗兰肯斯坦的西班牙语。
437The translation was very good.译经甚妙.
438Frankenstein is an amazing book in English or in Spanish.弗兰肯斯坦是一本英语或西班牙语的惊人书籍.
439But anyway, I think maybe this came from this.但无论如何,我想也许这是从这个。
440上面写着 假的 la voz más dulce que yo haya escuchado.
441And I was like, why is it aya?我当时想,为什么是Aya?
442So I read that and I wrote it down.所以我读了它,我把它写下来。
443I was like, I need to understand why this is aya.我当时想,我需要理解 为什么这是Aya。
444And so then I wrote down the other possibilities.于是我记下了其他的可能性。
445Why not la voz más dulce que he escuchado or la que había escuchado?为何他不说出自己的话来?
446And so then I asked someone and I have written in parentheses here, all three are correct.于是我问了一个人,我用括号写了这三句话,都是正确的。
447And so this is interesting to me because then as a native speaker explains it to me, I所以这对我来说很有趣 因为当一个本地人向我解释,我
448can see that the meaning changes.可以看到意义在改变。
449Like I could use all three of those and all three of them would be correct, but each of我可以用这三样东西 三个都没错 但每个
450them would have different meanings.他们有不同的意义。
451Another example of how I use this notebook is like when words were particularly challenging我用这本笔记本的另一个例子是 文字特别困难的时候
452for me, I would often like challenging to remember like a word that for whatever reason对我来说,我常常想挑战 记住一个词,因为任何原因
453I just couldn't remember.我只是不记得了。
454I remember I had this problem with the words cojín and cajón in Spanish.我记得我对西班牙语中的cojín和cajón有这种问题。
455It was like, I always mix these up because they're like sort of similar or whatever.这就像,我总是 混合这些 因为他们喜欢类似什么的。
456And then once I realized the connection, so for example, I, what I would do in these situations然后一旦我意识到了联系, 所以,举例来说,我,我会做什么 在这种情况下
457is go look up the etymology of the word and see where it came from originally.去查查这个词的词源 看看它最初的来源
458And this solved the issue for me.这解决了我的问题。
459So for example, cojín I learned is related to French.例如,我学到的cojín与法语有关。
460I'm going to pronounce this wrong, cousson, I guess, which stems from vulgar Latin coxinus,我要发错音了, 库森,我猜, 源自粗俗的拉丁克辛努斯,
461which means seat pad, which comes from Latin coxa, which means hip, and possibly Latin意思是座椅垫,来自拉丁coxa,意思是臀部,也可能是拉丁语
462pelvinus pillow.皮尔文纳斯枕头。
463And so the English word cushion comes from the French word cousson from the Latin coxa.因此,英语单词缓冲来自法语单词cousson,来自拉丁coxa.
464And so that means that the word cushion and cojín are connected through this shared root.也就是说,衬垫和cojín一词是通过这个共享根相连的。
465So when I think cushion, cousson, cojín, somehow in my mind, now they all connect together.所以,当我想到衬垫, 库森,cojín, 不知何故在我的脑海, 现在它们都连接在一起。
466And so now I'll never forget this word.所以现在我永远不会忘记这个词
467I'll never mess it up with cajón again.我不会再和卡琼搞混了
468And I realized that cajón is kind of like caja.我意识到卡约有点像卡约
469So it makes perfect sense.所以这很合理
470And so these are the kinds of things I was doing with this notebook.这些就是我用这本笔记本做的
471One last example, because I remember this one very specifically as well.最后一个例子,因为我记得这个非常具体的例子。
472I was talking to someone and there was a situation where like I knew something before something我和某人说话时 遇到一种情况 就像我知道一些事之前
473else happened.还发生了其他事
474我告诉他,他就像, 啊, que bueno que lo supieras。
475And I was like, wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute.我当时想,等一下,等一下,等一下。
476你为什么说supieras?
477Porque si lo supe.猪肉酱
478Like I did know.就像我知道的那样
479So why did you use this tense that gives this sense of like uncertainty?那你为什么用这种紧张 给人这种不确定的感觉?
480Like que bueno que lo supieras.比如说 苏皮埃拉
481And he sat there silently for a second and was like.他静静地坐在那里一秒钟,就像。
482他对我说,波克,没有supieras, 没有hubiera sido bueno, entonces que bueno。
483que lo supieras.苏皮耶拉
484And that for me was like my mind blown in that moment.对我来说就像那一刻我的思想被吹了
485So I find that extremely interesting.所以我觉得这非常有趣。
486But to kind of wrap up this point, this notebook is how I mastered this adjunctive.但为了结束这一点, 这个笔记本是我如何掌握这个形容词的。
487This notebook is like what allowed me to let my curiosity run wild with Spanish and to这本笔记本让我对西班牙语的好奇心大发
488continue to have a hunger for knowledge about the language and to say like, oh, well, if继续渴望了解语言 并说,哦,好吧,如果
489I can't say this, how would I, you know?我不能说,我怎么会,你知道吗?
490And so every little curiosity I had, I found a way to satisfy that curiosity by gaining所以,我每一点点的好奇心, 我找到一个方法满足这种好奇心 通过获得
491the knowledge, by asking someone, by looking it up, whatever the case may be.知识,通过问一个人, 通过调查它,不管案件是什么。
492And that's what allowed me to really like expand my Spanish really, really far and become所以我才喜欢扩展我的西班牙语 真正,真正远,并成为
493really, really fluent.真的很,真的很流利。
494So that's the second thing that I did.因此,这是我做的第二件事。
495And the third thing is specific accent training.第三件事是具体的口音训练。
496So as I mentioned, I did work with an accent coach in Spanish.所以,正如我所提到的,我确实与一个西班牙语的口音教练一起工作。
497Even before working with him, though, I always tried to train my accent because it was always在和他合作之前,我总是试着训练我的口音,因为它总是
498my goal to sound as much like a native speaker as I could.我的目标是尽可能像一个本地人说话
499So I was, you know, putting in the effort of doing shadowing.所以我,你知道, 努力做影子。
500I would like record my voice and like listen to a clip from a native speaker and kind of,我想录下我的声音 并想听一个土著演讲的片段
501you know, put on headphones and try to say the same thing at the same time as the native戴上耳机 试着和本地人说话

503mouths to make sure that my mouth was moving in the same way.嘴来保证我的嘴 以同样的方式移动。
504And then eventually I did find an accent coach for Spanish and so I took a course with him.最后我找到了西班牙语的口音教练 所以我和他一起上了一个课程
505So all of this was like, you know, the actual effort that I put into making sure that my所以这一切就像,你知道, 我付出的实际努力 确保我的
506accent was as good as possible.口音尽可能好
507Because again, what have we learned in this video?再说一遍,我们在这段视频里学到了什么?
508None of this happens just by accident.这一切都不是偶然发生的。
509You have to make an effort.你必须努力
510And making an effort is super worth it to me because like I love when I meet new people努力对我来说是值得的 因为我喜欢遇到新人
511here and they are very surprised by the way that I talk.他们很惊讶我说话的方式
512They're like, oh my God, like you use all the local slang, you know, your accent is他们就像,哦,我的上帝, 就像你用所有的当地口音, 你知道,你的口音是
513so good.这么好
514我曾经有人对我说,哇, as como hablar con una Mexicana más。
515And it's not that like my goal is to sound like someone I'm not, but it's like when I我的目标不是听起来像我不是一个人,而是当我
516feel that way to them, like when their experience of talking to me feels like talking to just感觉这样对他们, 就像当他们的经验 跟我说话 感觉像说话
517someone else that they would meet and not a foreigner, then that means this like foreign别人,他们会遇到,而不是一个外国人, 那么这意味着这像外国

527who live for 20 plus years in another country without learning language at all, or you know,在另一个国家生活了20多年 完全没有学习语言,或者你知道,
