學習語言你必須知道的十件事

1. Make realistic, specific goals

You have decided to learn another language. Now what? On our recent live chat our panellists first piece of advice was to ask yourself: what do you want to achieve and by when? Donavan Whyte, vice president of enterprise and education at Rosetta Stone, says: “Language learning is best when broken down into manageable goals that are achievable over a few months. This is far more motivating and realistic.”

You might be feeling wildly optimistic when you start but aiming to be fluent is not necessarily the best idea. Phil McGowan, director at Verbmaps, recommends making these goals tangible and specific: “Why not set yourself a target of being able to read a newspaper article in the target language without having to look up any words in the dictionary?”

 

2. Remind yourself why you are learning

It might sound obvious, but recognising exactly why you want to learn a language is really important. Alex Rawlings, a language teacher now learning his 13th language, says: “Motivation is usually the first thing to go, especially among students who are teaching themselves.” To keep the momentum going he suggests writing down 10 reasons you are learning a language and sticking it to the front of the file you are using: “I turn to these in times of self-doubt.”

 

3. Focus on exactly what you want to learn

Often the discussion around how to learn a language slides into a debate about so-called traditional v tech approaches. For Aaron Ralby, director of Linguisticator, this debate misses the point: “The question is not so much about online v offline or app v book. Rather it should be how can we assemble the necessary elements of language for a particular objective, present them in a user-friendly way, and provide a means for students to understand those elements.”

When signing up to a particular method or approach, think about the substance behind the style or technology. “Ultimately,” he says, “the learning takes place inside you rather that outside, regardless of whether it’s a computer or book or a teacher in front of you.”

 

4. Read for pleasure

For many of our panellists, reading was not only great for making progress, but one of the most rewarding aspects of the learning experience. Alex Rawlings explains that reading for pleasure “exposes you to all sorts of vocabulary that you won’t find in day-to-day life, and normalises otherwise baffling and complicated grammatical structures. The first book you ever finish in a foreign languages is a monumental achievement that you’ll remember for a long time.”

 

5. Learn vocabulary in context

Memorising lists of vocabulary can be challenging, not to mention potentially dull. Ed Cooke, co-founder and chief executive of Memrise, believes that association is key to retaining new words: “A great way to build vocabulary is to make sure the lists you’re learning come from situations or texts that you have experienced yourself, so that the content is always relevant and connects to background experience.”

1.制定現實而具體的目標

你已經決定要學習一門外語。現在要如何做呢?在我們最近的在線聊天中,我們的嘉賓所給的第一條建議就是問問自己:你想要達成一個怎樣的目標以及何時達成?來自羅塞塔石的企業教育協會副主席多諾萬·懷特(Donavan Whyte)說,學習語言最好的辦法是將學習目標分成幾個易處理的階段目標,這些目標要能夠在數月之內達成。這個方法具有激發性同時也更容易實現。在開始學習一門語言的時候你可能會過于樂觀,但把目標設為能流利使用該門語言可能不是最好的做法。Verbmaps公司的主管菲爾·麥高恩(Phil McGowan)建議將學習目標具化為實際且具體的目標:“為什么不設定這樣一個學習目標,即能夠在不查閱字典的情況下,閱讀目標語言的報紙文章呢?”

 

2.提醒自己學習的目的

這問題的答案看起來似乎很明顯,但能夠準確地認識到自己學習一門語言的目的是很重要的。語言學教師艾利克斯·羅林斯(Alex Rawlings),目前正在學習他的第十三種語言,他說:“確定學習動機是首先要做的事情,尤其對那些自學外語的學生而言。” 他建議學習者寫下十個學習這門語言的理由,并把它貼在學習文件夾的首頁,以此保持學習的動力:“當我開始懷疑自己的時候,我就看看這些當初學習的理由。”

 

3.集中精力學習那些你想要學習的東西

關于如何學習語言的討論通常都變成關于所謂傳統學習方法和技術學習方法之間的辯論。對于Linguisticator公司的主管亞倫·羅爾比(Aaron Ralby)來說,此類辯論都沒有抓到重點:“問題并不是關于在線學習和離線學習,亦或使用應用程序學習或使用書本學習,而應該是我們在面對一個特定的學習目標時,如何收集學習所需的素材,并將這些材料以對用戶友好的方式呈現,并提供給學生理解這些材料的方法。” 當決定使用某種特定的方法時,要思考這種方式方法或技術背后的內容實質。“最終,” 他說,“學習是發生在你的內心而非外部環境當中,無論你面對的是電腦、書本還是老師。”

 

4.快樂閱讀

對于我們當中眾多的小組成員來說,閱讀不僅對學習進步大有裨益,而且是這次學習的經歷中對我們最有益的方面之一。艾利克斯·羅林斯解釋說快樂閱讀能“將你沉浸在眾多日常不會使用到的詞匯之中,并且將那些令人疑惑和復雜的語法結構常態化。你完整閱讀的第一本外語書籍是個值得紀念的成就,這會是一個很難忘的經歷。”

 

5. 在語境中學習詞匯

記住一大堆單詞是很困難的,更不要說這可能是一個相當無聊的過程。Memrise 公司的聯合創始人兼首席執行官艾德·庫克(Ed Cooke)認為聯想是記憶單詞很重要的方法:“建立詞匯庫的一個重要方法是確保你現在學習的那些單詞都是來自親身經歷的場景或閱讀的文本,這樣的話記憶的內容就會與經驗背景聯系起來。”
