I’m German and currently learning 6 languages
English
French
Italian
Spanish
Portuguese
Turkish
The main reason is not to learn the languages itself it was initiating to find a method to protect against “Dementia and Alzheimer’s”
I’m running all combinations on languages I have found on Memrise
Currently 101 courses
Additional I studied a lot about learning
One of these results based on the conclusion that the most important stuff to learn a language is to safe the sound and meaning of a word
I also not focus to learn the languages for active speaking
focus on written form
My test is Google News in all languages
to understand a language you need to know the meaning of words
with Memrise I currently run following system
- Learning Words and Phrases
- One Speed Review
- One Classic Review
- mark all words as difficult and run One’s and unmark
- One Speed Review
than I have 13 day for next run
2. One Speed Review
3. One Classic Review
4. mark all words as difficult and run One’s and unmark
5. One Speed Review
after 97 days last run
2. One Speed Review
3. One Classic Review
4. mark all words as difficult and run One’s and unmark
5. One Speed Review
repeat every 180 days
I know not a common use but it is also a kind of science I’m running
Beside learning languages it has other benefits which have nothing to do with language itself but is improving other stuff in your daily life
I’m using Excel to coordinate all stuff
