Looking to finish my English learning with also looking to learn Chinese slowly. With three hours for this how would you organize these habits?Can speak, read and understand the language but fall short in reading technical and advanced books; there is also the issue in pronunciation.Pic related; what app would you consider better to strengthen the learning of each language?
>>34069107Unironically chatgpt and Anki.我学习中文
>>34069107Something you should try is just watching movies and TV in the language you're learning - with subtitles in that language, if you can't yet follow speech at full speed.
>>34069230Forgot about that, thanks.
>>34069107I'm learning chinese too, mostly Anki.https://hikari3.ch/en/thread/10327There's this imageboard with a few good posts on Chinesehttps://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HyLEQlqm3IJ3tREVAw3n97kMtDCQCb_Dhttps://drive.google.com/open?id=123pXHfElVObijk_6YUwmzMtaqAb9kWmMKeep studying! There was a good post on Chinese kino over at >>>/tv/https://archive.4plebs.org/tv/thread/215751715/
>>34069107>pronunciationWhat helped me a lot was finding a group of international students at a local uni or smth and chatting with them. They're everywhere. I kind of want to work in a restaurant or something part-time to supplement.
>>34069350你学习怎么样?我正在学习中文为了军队
>>34069358我学习的还可以. 你是美国军队的吗?我得说我还是个菜鸟. 我觉得我的HSK水平是2-3级.I use Yomitan often for my studies. >>34069353Do you check out those international language exchanges? I was told to avoid them because they're usually sexual.
>>34069230This will not entirely help you learn a language, though. You need to actually learn how words are formed in the language, how characters are formed in the language. For English, at least, you cannot learn just by memorizing words and memorizing certain phrases. You will never master the language or be fluent if you do that, and you will have a hard time reading anything above an elementary school grade level. You need to actually start with phonics. You need to understand how words are formed, like prefix, suffix, root words, etc. Then you actually stand a chance. Consuming media in the desired language is just good for helping you understand tone and accent and what you should sound like. Even then, you have to be very, very careful that you're not making some weird accent, like how a lot of anime characters speak like actual small children, or if you only watch American Westerns, or you only watch old-time American movies where everyone has a trans-Atlantic accent that doesn't really exist anymore, you're going to sound absolutely crazy.
>>34069107>>34069225>>34069350>>34069358>>34069382WHY are all of you learning Chinese?
>>34069399It's fun and their internet sphere is huge. Why aren't you learning it anon? An anon told me they hated tonal languages.
>>34069437I just dont like the Chinese. I think maybe I'd do Japanese or Russian (different lexicons) after mastering say german, or even better Spanish so I'd have a broken rough understanding if Italian and Portuguese
>>34069453Good luck if you learn either anon, Russian is fun to go with if you're into Piracy. There are a lot of Spanish pokemon fan games. I've never had any interest in German or Italian though.
>>34069492I just think its neat that if you learn Spanish you can roughly understand two other languages enough to barely get by. I grew up around some German speakers so Ich kanne spreche, aber ein kinder
>>34069399You have to prepare to thrive in the new world :3
>>34069397>This will not entirely help you learn a language, though.Not *entirely* no. But it's very good listening practice for life-like conversations. It also exposes you to different regional accents, etc. It doesn't replace apps, but it complements them.
>>34069397>You need to actually start with phonics.That's the worst possible approach. It's far better to learn by immersion, in the same way that you learn your first language as a child.
>>34069690The multipolar world is going to be crazy China won by doing nothing
>>34070151Adults don't learn languages in the same way children do.
>>34070151Retard.>>34072285Correct.>>34069107I unfortunately only know the free stuff from Taiwanese goverment. Think dw.de's German learning material. - https://taiwancenter.taiwan-world.net/material/basic- https://www.huayuworld.org/Ebook/EbookList?CID=2&SID=9 (need login)They come with recordings. I think you can find the ones for practicing pronunciations and pinyin/zhuyin. It's obviously Traditional Chinese, even if it mostly uses pinyin. I'm sure the CCP has something similar.
Classic.
