My language learning history -1 I started to learn English when I was eight. My school was rather good in English studying. Not perfect but better than many others. So my English was quite good when I finished school. But then I started to study in university. We have English lessons too but they were very boring for me. My group-mates knew English much worse than one another girl and me, that's why we studied things that I knew very well. I felt very confident in English. I could not do any home tasks but be better than my group-mates anyway. I felt airily about this lessons. Now I see that I was very stupid. I didn't understand that any knowledge is not a constant and I must learn and use language if I want to keep my knowledge. Also, I didn't feel that I really need English. Everybody spoke about its importance, and I thought so too. But It was not because of my own need. It was only because of an idea that existed in society. A few years later I understood that my English became much worse. I saw different words that I had surely known in school but could not remember. It was very sad, I was angry at myself, I started to understand that I need to practice English to remember it. But the second thing didn't change. I still didn't feel that I really need it. That's why my attempts to revive my knowledge failed. Also, I started to learn Spanish. It was easier than reviving English because I saw more rapid and vivid results. It was like the day before I had known 10 words in Spanish but that day I knew 15 words, 50% more than the day before. In English it was like I had not understood 50% of a movie the day before and I still didn't understand it that day. By the way, I paused studying Spanish now but I want to continue it one day. It's a beautiful language I think (I divide this text into 2 parts because I'm no sure that somebody will read even this big piece of text)
