02:02 | yours to keep forever . Okay , let's jump into | |
02:04 | today's topic . How to speak more of your target | |
02:11 | language specificity and can do checklists . Every learner wants | |
02:16 | to speak more in their target language . And yet | |
02:18 | speaking is almost always the weakest skill for most learners | |
02:22 | . So how do you fix this ? How do | |
02:25 | you speak more ? Keep watching . These tips will | |
02:28 | apply to solo learners and those with a conversation partner | |
02:31 | first . Let's put language learning aside , let's say | |
02:35 | you wanted to speak more about a certain topic in | |
02:37 | your native language . What would that depend on the | |
02:40 | length of that conversation ? Depends on how much you | |
02:43 | know about that topic , Right ? If you don't | |
02:45 | know much that conversation won't last long . If you | |
02:48 | know a lot , you could go on for hours | |
02:51 | . It's the same with language learning . The more | |
02:53 | words and phrases , you know around a certain topic | |
02:55 | , the more you can speak , it's a top | |
02:58 | down approach . Make a topic for example whether and | |
03:01 | work your way down , learn the relevant words , | |
03:04 | phrases and questions for that topic . For example , | |
03:07 | what's the weather like ? It's nice weather , it's | |
03:10 | sunny , it's windy , I like sunny weather , | |
03:13 | I don't like rain . The more lines you come | |
03:16 | up with , the more you'll be able to talk | |
03:17 | about the weather in your target language . The point | |
03:20 | is , if you want to speak more you should | |
03:22 | start with a specific topic . Sounds obvious , right | |
03:25 | ? So why don't most learners do this ? Most | |
03:28 | learners don't do this because they're just passively following a | |
03:31 | learning resource without going after what they specifically want . | |
03:34 | It's much easier to follow a textbook than to stop | |
03:37 | think about what you want to talk about and go | |
03:39 | off in that direction . Of course you should keep | |
03:43 | using your textbook or other existing resource . You can | |
03:46 | do both Follow a resource and pursue specific topics . | |
03:50 | But here are a few reasons why this tactic is | |
03:52 | so powerful . First , specific goals always beat big | |
03:56 | goals . For example , between setting goals like I | |
04:00 | want to save money and I want to save $50 | |
04:03 | , you're more likely to succeed with the $50 goal | |
04:06 | . But because you have a specific number to look | |
04:09 | for and measure , You won't stop until that $0 | |
04:12 | becomes $10.20 . And then 50 . Same with language | |
04:16 | learning between , I want to learn more words and | |
04:19 | I want to learn 20 words . You'll do much | |
04:21 | better with a specific goal . Yeah , 2nd you | |
04:25 | get to speak more sooner . You can go try | |
04:28 | the general approach of learning the 2000 most common words | |
04:32 | , but that will take a long time and it | |
04:33 | won't get you speaking any faster . But if you | |
04:36 | pick a specific topic and get all the words and | |
04:38 | phrases for it , you'll be much better off three | |
04:42 | so you know what to focus on again , knowing | |
04:45 | what to focus on , help you learn and progress | |
04:47 | faster . Otherwise if you're just going through a text | |
04:50 | book with no specific goal in mind , you'll spend | |
04:53 | months on learning a language and never see any real | |
04:55 | progress . So remember the more specific you are with | |
04:59 | what you want , the more likely you'll get it | |
05:02 | because you'll know exactly what you're looking for . This | |
05:04 | is why we tell you to set small measurable meaning | |
05:07 | specific monthly goals . Now what kind of topics should | |
05:11 | you pick ? That depends on you and your hobbies | |
05:14 | and interests . You can also start with common topics | |
05:17 | like talking about yourself , your family , the weather | |
05:20 | , or your weekend plans , but to make it | |
