Languages from other language group. I think it’s easier to learn a foreign language if this language and yours are in the same language group. For example: in German – helfen, in Swedish – att hjälpa, in English – to help. Or: in German – der Morgen, in Swedish – en morgon, in English – a morning. The brain can find a link between these words. But how to learn languages from other language groups? I’ll give an example – the same words, the same order: in Finnish – auttaa (to help), aamu (morning), in Russian – помогать, утро. I think it's really difficult to learn, especially if words are written a different alphabet.

Languages from other language groups.

I think it’s easier to learn a foreign language if your target language and your language are in the same language group. For example: in German – helfen, in Swedish – att hjälpa, in English – to help. Or: in German – der Morgen, in Swedish – en morgon, in English – a morning. The brain can find a link between these words. But how does one learn languages from other language groups? I’ll give an example – the same words, the same order: in Finnish – auttaa (to help), aamu (morning), in Russian – помогать, утро. I think it's really difficult to learn, especially if words are written in a different alphabet.
