Nowadays, being good at foreign languages is beneficial for you compared to others. The language that is needed more and more every year in the market is Chinese. It is considered as important as English. Many people may love to study Chinese as a second or third language to use in work or further study. Today, ACU PAY will share 5 tips for anyone who would love to practice. Let’s see what tips there are!
Listening skill is an important skill in learning a language. You need to listen a lot whether you understand it or not. Listening helps us absorb sentence patterns, vocabulary, and pronunciation better than memorizing textbooks. It could be listening to music, watching movies, watching series, watching news or listening to people talking.
This is complementary to the first listening skill we’ve just mentioned. In addition to practicing pronunciation according to the owner of the language, looking at the shape of the mouth and how each word is pronounced is important for correct pronunciation according to the owner. It also makes the conversation more understandable. When watching a series or writing Chinese vocabulary, we can practice speaking along several times to help remember that vocabulary more accurately and the accent will become more pronounced
There is research that confirms that remembering vocabulary by memorization and repeatedly writing until the brain remembers are less effective than memorizing the connection of the meaning and emotion of the words. Thus, if you try to memorize Chinese characters or words as pictures or symbols instead, it will help remember more and more accurately than ever before.
If you can remember vocabulary up to 1,000 words, it will cover 85% of words used in daily life and if you can remember vocabulary up to 3,000 words, it will cover 98% of the vocabulary used in daily life. Thus, the key to being fluent in Chinese communication is to remember vocabulary as much as possible. You will be confident in using Chinese language for sure.
Nothing can improve your language learning faster than using it in everyday conversation. Putting yourself in an environment where Chinese is frequently used can help improve language skills faster than you think. In this regard, it depends on how much you try as well as the confidence to speak.
If you can follow these 5 steps, it can help improve language skills as well and may be more effective than traditional textbook reading and writing exercises. The most important thing is that you can adapt these steps in other language learning.
