6 Reasons why you will never speak a foreign language fluently

While recent studies emphasize a great number of benefits of learning a new language, only a small number of people actually speak two or more languages.

Research by the US Census has shown, that only 1% of language students can engage in a conversation in a foreign language after leaving college.

Equal percentages apply to language learners in Latin America and Asia. When you think of the benefits multilingualism has to offer, don’t only consider new career opportunities. Speaking more than one language has also proven to have an immense influence on the brain, as it may prevent or delay brain diseases like Alzheimer’s and dementia, while it will also help you to learn anything faster, not just languages, as your brain will learn to adapt to and process new tasks.

Imagine traveling to a foreign country and meeting some native speakers you want to connect with. You may probably have a decent conversation in English, however, if you could communicate with them in their native tongue, studies have shown that locals are more welcoming and comfortable than when having to speak in a language foreign to them. For example, you may get an invitation to share some paella with your new Spanish friends. This way you could experience a whole new way of travel, and it will also boost your confidence knowing you can simply speak to anyone you meet, without having to worry about whether or not they speak English. Wouldn’t that be great?

Now, even though you are motivated to learn a foreign language, you might still encounter some problems when trying to get fluent. Here are the main 6 reasons why:

#1 You don’t start speaking

If you regularly find excuses for not learning a language like “I simply don’t have the time” or “Language learning costs a lot of money”, then you have your first reason right there. A lack of time or money are no valid excuses for not learning or speaking a language, as there are so many possibilities of free language learning, like video tutorials or basic grammar or vocabulary exercises. Try to take a little time every day to watch a video tutorial on the foreign language of your choice and you will see your language skills improving day by day.

Experts say another reason many people hesitate speaking a new language is that of a lack of confidence. Many people believe that they won’t be able to do it and this is what keeps them from trying at all. Online learning tutorials and tools can prove useful in the early learning stages, as they can give you the confidence to have basic conversations with native speakers, the most crucial first step in learning a language. Don’t be afraid to take risks or make mistakes, most native speakers are more patient and understanding than you might think.

Nowadays, with a vast number of offers for language learning, not only classroom learning, but online as well, there is possibly an offer for everyone out there. So stop finding excuses and start finding a way to make it happen.

#2 You’re not getting involved with the language you want to speak fluently

The best way to get started, without actually having to speak to a person from the very beginning is training your grammar and vocabulary by doing things you probably already love doing. Like watching movies or TV shows on the internet. Try switching the language settings to the language you are learning and activate the subtitles in this language so you can see the words as they are written as well. You can also do this on your phone to be confronted with using the language every day.

Even though it might seem like a tedious task to learn all the words of a language, you have to remember that vocabulary forms the basis of every language. In addition to watching movies or TV shows, you can activate your vocabulary learning skills by reading newspapers or books or listening to the radio in the foreign language you are learning. It is also important that you start speaking to people at an early stage of your language learning experience and to converse with native speakers regularly.

#3 You’re not interacting enough with native speakers

In order to converse with native speakers on a regular basis, you have to find the perfect way for you to feel comfortable and improve your speaking skills. A good way to do so is to find a tandem partner or speak to native speakers over Skype or at a local language learning club. You may find tandem partners over various internet platforms like TandemPartners.

"Language learning is language use, and in the end, the highest saying if the speaking skill is encouraged." Dominik Rumlich Professor at the University of Paderborn, Germany.

Please be aware that a tandem partnership is also about teaching the other person your native language, not only about receiving language skills from them. This may also be a great way to get some experience in teaching a language. 

#4 You don’t have a specific goal for speaking your target language

To learn to speak a language fluently, you have to set a specific, achievable goal for yourself. It will be easier if you start by setting small goals first, leading up to the final goal of being fluent in your target language. For example, you could aim for having a short conversation in a grocery store at check out as your first goal, or asking someone on the street for directions. You will see that these short conversations will quickly become more comfortable for you so that you can focus on more extended interactions like starting a conversation in a bar or talking to a friend in your target language.

"It is especially important that from the very beginning, from the first 'Hello, I am' or `'Hello, how are you' you start speaking." Elke Höfler from the University of Graz, Austria.

#5 You’re not taking advantage of modern technology to help you become a fluent speaker

Nowadays, you have the advantage of being able to use a vast variety of technological language learning tools to help you improve your language speaking skills. However, these tools can’t help you become a better speaker of your target language if you don’t use them. As a smartphone user, you have a choice of various language learning apps, which can help you with becoming fluent more quickly. You should keep in mind that not all apps are built for speaking purposes so you should choose wisely which one is the best for your learning goal.

There are also some useful online language learning tools and aspiring start-ups on the market to help you learn and practice a language. If you want to focus on speaking a language, the new language learning website Magiclingua might be a great way to get started with your speaking skills.

Also, things I have mentioned before, like speaking to native speakers over Skype, setting your smartphone to your target language or watching movies in your target language, are useful technological tools to help you get accustomed with the new language and to be confronted with using it on a daily basis.

#6 You’re overthinking the speaking process

Once you get conversations in your target language up and running, try to not overthink the language process too much. Of course, you want to be understood and not make too many mistakes, but the most important thing is to just keep speaking and your conversation skills will get better in time. Also, if your conversation partner corrects you, don’t get discouraged. This is a normal reaction to hearing someone make a mistake. You would probably do the same in your native tongue, without meaning to be rude or make the other person feel bad. In addition, if somebody corrects you during a conversation and you apply the correction straight away, your brain will memorize what you have just learned better, than if you had learned it by heart from a textbook. Try to see every conversation as a new opportunity to improve your skills.

Now that you know which habits to avoid, what’s still keeping you from speaking a new language fluently? Get started now and experience yourself why it is so great to be able to speak a new language fluently.

Die 5-Killer-Tipps von Sprachexperten für Vokabeln lernen

Sprachen lernen kann mühsam sein — es soll am besten schnell und einfach gehen. Mit diesen fünf Experten-Tipps wirst du garantiert schneller Sprachen lernen.

Wir waren mit Magiclingua.com auf der 29. EXPOLINGUA Sprachenmesse in Berlin und haben Experten nach ihren geheimen Tipps und Tricks beim Lernen einer neuen Sprache befragt. Wir haben mit dem Sprachlehrer Sebastian Nothhelfer vom GLS Sprachenzentrum, Feinsprecher.net Gründerin Deniz Güngör, sowie der Lehrerin Christine Konstantinidis gesprochen. Super spannend waren ebenfalls die Gespräche mit den Polyglots, Fiel Sahir und Gabriel Gelman, die beide bereits 6 Sprachen sprechen und uns verrieten, an welche Grenzen sie tatsächlich stoßen, wenn sie eine neue Sprache lernen. Hier kommen die Top5 Learnings aus den Gesprächen:

#1 — Lerne nur deine Lieblingsvokabeln

Oft startet man bei einer Sprache mit der erstbesten, vorgegebenen Vokabelliste. Alle Experten sind sich einig, dass man mit Vokabeln beginnen soll, die man persönlich braucht.

„Man sollte sich die Mühe machen und nur die Vokabeln lernen, welche man im Alltag gebrauchen kann und auf die man Lust hat“. Schließlich ist eine Sprache auch mit Emotion verbunden und sobald ich kein Interesse an den Vokabeln habe, bleiben diese auch nicht im Gedächtnis”

weiß Lehrerin Christine Konstantinidis. Ein Satz wie ‘Die Katze trinkt Milch’ bringt dir am Anfang nicht so viel wie ‘Hallo ich bin Daniela, arbeite als Lehrerin und gehe gerne wandern’. Und natürlich brauchen wir nicht alle Vokabeln sofort können.

#2 — Verbinde Lernen mit dem Nützlichen

Es gibt 100 Methoden sich eine Sprache anzueignen, doch kommt es auf die persönlichen Präferenzen an. Am besten ist es die Sprache in deinen Alltag und in tägliche Aktivitäten einzubinden. Dabei gibt es eine Bandbreite an Möglichkeiten: Bücher lesen, Spiele spielen, Lieder singen oder Musikstücke spielen, Hörbücher oder Lieblingsfilme (bei Netflix) sehen. Fiel Sahir, Polyglot und Gründer von Between3Worlds.com, ist viel auf Reisen und auf einer langweiligen Busfahrt hört er Hörspiele oder schaut Serien. Er hört sich dabei diese in der jeweiligen Sprache an (wichtig!) und nutzt gegebenenfalls Untertitel, schreibt neue Vokabeln auf und schaut diese später nach und versucht gleich zu lernen. Bei dieser Methode lernt man nicht nur Vokabeln, die einen wirklich interessieren, sondern ist „Up to date“ bei der neuen Lieblingsserie oder einem Hörbuch und hat beim Pendeln die Zeit spannend überbrückt.

#3 — Setze dir Ziele

Natürlich ist man am Anfang hochmotiviert und möchte eine Sprache schnell beherrschen können. Doch Sebastian Nothhelfer vom GLS Sprachzentrum in Berlin meint:

“Mit 10 Vokabeln am Tag hat man meistens genug”

Man solle sich lieber einen kleinen Satz an Vokabeln vornehmen, um Frust zu vermeiden. Das hört sich nun wenig an, aber „besser weniger lernen, dann richtig.“, so Sebastian Nothhelfer. Dazu sollte man sich Ziele setzen und diese versuchen nicht so schnell wie möglich, sondern so konsequent und sinnvoll wie möglich zu erreichen. Fiel Sahir empfiehlt daher einen Vokabeltrainer wie Magiclingua oder Anki zu nutzen, um die Vokabeln effizient einprägen zu können.

#4 — Tauche in die Sprache kulturell ein

Wir erinnern uns am besten an Informationen, wenn wir mit allen Sinnen dabei waren. Deniz Güngör von den Feinsprechern versucht kreativ durch das Verbinden von Sprache und Essen die Vokabeln Ihren Schülern beizubringen, denn “Kreativität ist beim Lernen sehr wichtig“. Im Alltag gibt es viele Möglichkeiten die Sprache auch zu erleben: Im Restaurant, bei einem internationalen Stammtisch, durch Tandempartner, Freunde im Ausland, interessante Bücher oder Kochbücher. Christine Konstantinidis von Erfolgreichsprachenlernen.de sagt dabei ganz klar:

“Die beste Motivation kommt aus dem Kontakt mit den Menschen”

und diese können dir super bei deinem Vokabellernen mit Tipps und Korrekturen helfen. Wenn du niemandem in Deinem Umkreis hast mit dem du die Sprache üben kannst, werfe ein Blick auf Seiten wie italki.com oder hellotalk.com, wo du Online-Tandempartner aus anderen Ländern finden kannst.

#5 — Keep going

„Dranbleiben ist wahrscheinlich der Schwierigste Teil beim Vokabeln lernen“, sagt Sebastian Nothhelfer. Da lohnt es sich die Sprache so gut wie möglich in den Alltag zu integrieren und seine eigene Komfortzone zu verlassen, um eine neue Welt kennen zu lernen. Gabriel von Sprachheld.de meint, “man kann eine Sprache nicht beigebracht bekommen, sondern man muss diese selbst aktiv nutzen. Durch offline oder online Anwendungen, Gesprächen und Texten kreierst du die Sprache und du baust dir die nötigen Vokabeln zusammen.” Letztendlich bindet das dich nicht nur mit der Sprache, sondern das „Dranbleiben“ fällt dir auch viel einfacher, da du es nach einer Zeit in deinem Alltag gar nicht mehr als Fremd wahrnimmst.

Letztendlich..

liegt es an deinen Präferenzen, wie du am einfachsten die Vokabeln lernst. Es empfhielt sich, realistische Ziele in Abstimmung mit deinen Hobbies zu setzen, über den Tellerrand hinauszublicken und neue Sachen auszuprobieren. In unserer heutigen Zeit haben wir sehr viele Möglichkeiten auch durch digitale Tools unterwegs oder während Wartezeiten uns eine Sprache näher zu bringen. Dabei soll es aber kein Wettbewerb werden, wer die meisten Sprachen spricht, sondern wie Alex Rawlings es bereits betitelte:

„It is not about how many language you speak, it’s about how much you love them“
