☀️How to activate the passive vocabulary? ☀️ Hello! My name is Natasha and I love to learn foreign languages. I like speaking English and Spanish. I hope that I can speak these languages fluently one day. I want to tell you about an interesting method which is suitable for those who have little knowledge in a foreign language they are learning. The first thing to do is to find a suitable text. It is necessary that you understand at least half of the words in the text. The best is to find one where 70% of the words are familiar. Next, read the text and try to do it confidently, as you would a text in your native language. Do not try to understand or analyze every unfamiliar word you see and just enjoy the process. Then, read the text again but focus on the unfamiliar words this time. Try to understand what they mean from the context. Next, write the unfamiliar words down and look up their definitions in a dictionary. If you have trouble understanding a definition, a translation to your native language might help. However, take note that translations are rarely perfect and should not be heavily relied upon. Once you have acquired the definitions of all the unfamiliar words in the text, try to create your own sentences with them. Lastly, discuss the text with your teacher or a friend without looking excessively at the text. This ensures that you train yourself to recall the new words you have learnt, so that there is a higher chance of keeping them in your active vocabulary. Without training your recollection skills, these new words will more likely be stuck in your passive vocabulary, and you might have difficulties recalling them. I wish you all the best in your learning journey!

How to learn any language fast, easy and fun? Nowadays we have many methods to enjoy learning processes. We can use apps, YouTube, websites. We can find friends from over the world. Exchange is the best approach to learn effectively. Through communication we can pick up new words and phrases without even thinking about study. We don't study when we involve in a deep emotional conversation. Helping each other we help to know more about culture, mentality and people. We are expanding our horizons. We are letting people to be different. Learning language helps us to be more open minded. Anyway, better if you do something you like doing. If you need someone to lead you, better to find a tutor. Everyone knows we have different time zones, sometimes hard to find a good person who can feel your needs and who can find appropriate time for you. That is way some students prefer to have a tutor. I didn't get it before, because for me it is not a hard to find a friend for exchange languages. However, even having one hundred people around me we still cannot find the right time for each other. Currently I see why persistent learners want to have a tutor, because if you booked classes you will receive them anyway. :) I met people who does not like exchange they have a goal to achieve a success in a short period of time. They want to speak just language they have chosen to themselves. ☺️ let's back to our point . Exchange is in the first place, if you are looking for a good tutor is fine too, of course if you like using different apps you can do it as much as you like. Everything can help you in this journey. However, the most important thing is to be in love with what you are doing :) good luck !
