En 2019 je suis plus concentré à apprendre le chinois et le français. Je suis débutant en français et de niveau intermédiaire en chinois. 今年我想要專心學法語和華語。法語我是初學者，對華語我已經有一定的了解。 [de] Bitte beachtet die Angaben zu den Sprachfähigkeiten in diesem Profil. Sie sind alle richtig. Die Fragen, wie gut ich diese oder jede Sprache kann, sind also unnötig. [fr] Actuellement, j'étudie l'histoire en Allemagne. J'ai récemment commencé à apprendre le français. Je participe à un séminaire sur l'archéologie alpine à l'Âge du cuivre. Le sujet que j'ai abordé concerne la région de la Savoie. La majeur partie du sujet littéraire est le français. Donc il faut que je sois capable de lire cela. Comme j’ai besoin du français pour mes études, être capable de parler est plutôt accessoire pour moi. [la] Historiam ad universitatis studui, ergo intellego paulum latine. Scio loqui etiam russice et germanice. Nunc studeo imprimis linguam sinicam, quae mihi multum placet. [zh] 我是一名住在德國的碩士研究生，專業是歷史。在此，我希望能夠認識更多的外國朋友,了解外國文化。

    Pretty much the only circumstances under which I imagine myself doing it are if it is for some short-term linguistic project, maybe to compare my language learning methods with those of someone else. I don't expect to learn to communicate in a language to which I don't have particular interest, so I probably wouldn't do it. I have to have something about my life that makes me want to learn a language, and this something has to be more then a random assignment.

    I see several problems with either your post or the article you have cited.

    First, in the article the author talks about "guided learning hours" and not "hours of study", and those two are clearly not the same. You probably need at the very least two or three hours of self-study for every hour you spend with a teacher.

    Second, I don't think the article behind the link could indeed be described as formal guidelines. It looks more of an opinion for me. Even if there are formal guidelines that say pretty much the same thing, I don't think they are very helpful. They are in fact misleading, because a guided learning hour could be a private lesson, and it could be a lesson in a class with 20 other people. You could have a professional teacher, you could have a teacher who is not so professional. You can have classmates that are better then you, you can have classmates who speak so much poorer then you that the teacher is forced to give them extra tasks. The are so many variations that any such guidelines or opinions have little practical implication.

    Third, certainly in my experience, whereas the difference between A1 and A2 may be not as great, it becomes larger from level to level. Im my experience you need more time to go from C1 to C2 then to go from zero to C1.

    Finally, the numbers in the article seem way too low. I don't know the right number either, but there is an opinion out there that 10000 hours is the right number of hours to become successful in your field. For the purposes of this discussion I am going to assume that achieving the C2 level is what could be reasonably described as success in language learning, and that the number of 10000 hours is indeed more or less correct; it certainly seems closer to reality then three or four thousand (1000 to 1200 guided learning hours + 2000 to 3000 hours of self-study). I am going to suggest the following number of hours to reach each level:
    B1: 1111
    B2: 2380
    C1: 4920
    C2: 10000

    At my university a typical 18/20-pages Hausarbeit is calculated as about 100 hours of work. So even if someone charges an equivalent of the minimum wage (and frankly, nobody, at least nobody who wants to produce a good result, should charge so little, because intellectual work tends to be highly exhausting), the end result will be quite expensive.

    I very much agree with the guy in the video. I certainly would never have a third date with someone who didn't make an effort to contribute paying for either the first or the second date, and frankly, I don't think anybody should.

    There are women out there who are happy to pay 100% for the first date. It's not an unusual situation and it doesn't make me feel strange.

    To be C2 you have to give up a large portion of your social live and study, study, study. The vast majority of language learners are not prepared to do so. C2 is really really high. Fortunately, you don't need C2 even if you want to live and work in a country where the language is spoken. Maybe only if you want to be an academic.

    Я посмотрел на оригинальную статью, и видимо это не просто тест из бульварной газетёнки. Там действительно есть ссылка на исследование.

    В нём однако не сказано, что это IQ тест. Напротив, там фактически сказано что это не IQ тест, поскольку там приведена корреляция с другими тестами и везде она ниже +0.5.

    Но если всё же рассматривать это как IQ тест, то ключ будет выглядеть так: http://www.ihvo.de/wp-content/uploads/Normalverteilung_der_Intelligenz_ENGL-2-small.jpeg

    Картинка однако не очень хорошая, может быть есть лучше, но на глаз (плюс-минус пункт или два) всё выглядит таким образом.


    3 балла, 17% населения:

    На картинке левая половина это 50% населения. Нам нужно к этим 50% прибавить ещё 33%, чтобы прийти к доле населения, не сумевшей справиться со всеми заданиями. То есть это чуть левее метки 34.1% справа, соответствующей 115-ти пунктам. Получается, что выполнившие все три задания правильно должны иметь примерно 113-114 и выше.


    2 балла, 23% населения:

    между 105 и 113/114 


    1 балл: 28% населения:

    между 92.5 и 105


    0 баллов: нижние 33% населения:

    примерно 92.5 и ниже.


    P.S. Я знаю, что в сумме получается 101% а не 100%, но это те цифры, до которых округлили в исследовании.

    Не понравился тест, причём сразу по трём причинам. Тесты на IQ имеют смысл только тогда, когда очень разные задания смешаны в одну кучу. Там и подобрать нужную фигуру, и нужное слово, и найти лишнее, и продолжить ряд букв/чисел, в общем, очень разнотипные задания должны быть.

    А тут мало того, что всего три вопроса, да они ещё и однотипные. И третья причина: больно уж они простые. В хорошем задании должен быть значительный шанс ошибки. А тут сделавший все задания верно может радоваться не намного больше боксёра, который одолел соломенное чучело.
