Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

just tag me plz

[urban frigate]

Why not both

[dire heath]

but decoding everything and anayzig everythig takes so much time

i end up transating 5 questions in 2 hours

thats my total wrk

i feel like im too slow

bruh didnt een tag me

[urban frigate]

It's supposed to ping you when i reply

[urban frigate]

That's why you do it in moderation

Do it until you start to get sick of it, then do some lighter effort stuff

It's always a balance between high effort and low effort, both can help but are best when used in tandem in a way that keeps your momentum, avoids burning you out, while also giving you a challenge from time to time

[dire heath]

oooh

[dire heath]

how do i challenge my self? i learn 10 things in 1 day and 10 tomorrow, 10 in future

how can i keep up with all thos rthings as time progress

[urban frigate]

Anything you actively struggle to understand is going to be a "challenge". At the beginning most things will be.
In between that you can have stuff like podcasts or videos or music or whatever you like playing in the background, or anything where you don't need to make an effort to understand

[dire heath]

ohkhkhkh, btw how underratted is background listening
like lesss say im cooking or walking etc and i dont really kare much about french stuff playing in bg

is it realy worth it or it can really boost m y speaking??

do i really need to do active liststiing? like 50% active 50% passive?''

[urban frigate]

Passive wont make you learn the language on its own. It gets your ears tuned to the sounds of the language which can make it a bit easier to parse the language and mimic the sounds later on, and at later stages of learning it will help you gain familiarity with how things would be worded naturally, giving you a sort of point of reference

[dire heath]

dam i think that can gimme a lil boost

[urban frigate]

You should learn actively as much as you're comfortable, and supplement with passive when you get frustrated and need a break

Or just when you feel satisfied w the active learning

Like "i had a really good session today, lets put on some music"

[dire heath]

ohkhkhk, btw how do one doe active listening?
i usually pause at every sentece, anlyse the word, trying to u derstand sentence sturtuure, then i looop into some new grammer concept.. should i keep doing it this way?

[urban frigate]

Try variety. You'll figure out what works for you, and it can be a mix of different methods depending on how you're feeling

Try Téléfrançais and InnerFrench

Téléfrançais you should be able to watch without really looking anything up, that's what it's made for

[dire heath]

brooo WTF these 2 are insane

im thinking to do 1 hour of active lstening everyday, like non negotiable

cuz I study good 6-7 hours everyday

with ADHD btw 😭 but i try to focus

[subtle yoke]

Ah so I didn’t invent this method

[dire heath]

i also invented that method
