学习语言的几条真理

今天看alice公众号看到一篇关于学习语言技能，戳中我的文章分享，现在摘抄几句：

language is a skill more than a body of knowledge, acquired not so much by learning as by doing. Put another way, learning a language with an app is a bit like getting fit with one. The device can guide you, but you still have to work.练习

It is better to repeat a formula to death than to move on too soon.重复

Find a highly rated teacher and struggle through a half-hour’s conversation, shame-free. They can use the chat function of video-call apps to write down words that elude you or that you haven’t understood. Afterwards you can add them to your flashcards.最好能找个好的语伴一起练习喽，不要忘记复盘笔记

Keeping a journal can force you to write clearly those tricky bits you’ve been mumbling, making you confront half-learned material.As for reading, graphic novels are good for a realistic conversational style. And for no-nonsense written prose, find articles in the new language on Wikipedia on a subject you know well. Being able to guess unfamiliar terms gives a heartening sense of progress.每天都写喽

There is no way to learn a language without time and effort. What technology does is make that effort pay off faster. Just remember the goal—interacting with native speakers in the flesh. You’ll be out in the world again one day.说什么大实话呢~哈哈哈 选择一项技能，想要精进，应该是别无他法了吧。
