by Shivangi Kumari 10th Nov. 2022

Let's suppose you have to go for your first solo travel to your favorite country, but oh! no you don't know how to converse in their native language. You tried searching on the web a lot, how to learn a new language by yourself for free, as you do not want to spend a single penny on this new learning, but you were not able to find a single and suited answer to your query. So, now how you can learn a new language fast, as you have to board your flight in the coming week. So, now here we come into play with some scientifically proven best ways to learn a new language.

Learning a new language gives us new experiences about the different cultures and variety that the language is carrying behind it. This new learning can make your journey, even more, smoother and happier than that journey in which you converse by just using some finger actions to ask for something from the native people. Sometimes, knowing English also did not work for you because some people do not know English that much. Countries like South Korea or China have a very less number of people speaking or knowing English. Then, at that time our tips are going to help you a lot.
So, let's find out how you can learn a new language by yourself and also it's free of cost.

1. SET CLEAR GOALS AND TAKE IT AS A CHALLENGE:

Setting some clear goals for your upcoming learning journey is only going to help you what you have to learn and what you have to eliminate. Suppose you have to hit a target but you do not know where your arrow and bow are. At that time you are going to be stuck in the same place at which you were standing earlier. Let's make it clear, create a plan for the upcoming 7 Days and how you are going to proceed on this path. Can we make this journey even more playful for you? of course! Take it as a challenge that you are going to complete anyhow or you are going to lose your 100$ to your friend, I hope you do not want to give your 100$ to your friend let him know that if you lose this challenge you will pay him 100$, this will burn a fire inside you to take action and yeah! you reached your main target.

2. ACT SMARTLY NOT FOOLISHLY

According to a fact or that 80-20 principle, we know that 20% of words of any language contain the whole 80% of the main content. So, what are you waiting for? Go for that 20% and forget the rest 80%. According to a report, the top 100 words of any language occupy 50% part of the language, whereas the top 1000 words occupy 90% of the whole language. Forget the 90% is it hard for you to learn only 100 words? No! It's easier than you ever think, if you can learn 50% of any language then you are good to go, and now just focus on those 100 words to make your plan and start executing it.

3. LANGUAGE VISUALISATION AND VOCALISATION

Do you know about your mind? Let me ask you one thing there was a large tree in the mid of a desert, confusing no? So, what was your first reaction while the last words, did you see a large tree in the mid of a desert, 99.99% will agree on this because our mind first picturizes a certain thing or imagine it and then go for another term related to it. So, what was my purpose in saying this long story it's that you need to visualize yourself as a native speaker of any language and try to vocalize it from time to time? This trick is most powerful to send your conscious signals to your subconscious mind as by doing this you will be surprised how this long process became fun and memorable for you.

4. GESTURES IN THE NATIVE SPEAKERS' MANNERS

Have you ever imagined how we are indulged in our daily routine that doing anything against it gives us anxiety, if you are up towards learning a new language then try to speak with gestures means to ask for water and saying it in a different language, say goodbye or hello in a new language? This will just rewire your whole mind's working system and gives your mind some new tasks to work on and create a new space for the language to make it familiar to you.

5. MAKE NEW FRIENDS AND TRY TO SPEAK LIKE THEM

We are a product of five people with whom we hang out the most, or with whom we are caught most of the time, So let's make this learning a new challenge for you to make new native friends in that place where you have to visit. You can find anyone on social media, I know that this is not gonna easy for you to find any stranger and start talking with him but I know among 10 people there must be 1 or 2 person who tends to help you heartedly and make sure you do not ask them for help beforehand because it will represent you as a scammer and do not want to have a conversation with you so, just be genuine and then ask for help. They will help for sure.

6. WATCH MOVIES

We all humans are entertainment seekers as we get bored very easily so why not take this entertainment-seeking as a creative way to learn a new language? Movies of any genre whether it is thriller, horror or romantic which suits you better try to watch it without any additional dubbing, but now you will ask how I will be able to watch it when I do not understand the language so at that time Subtitles came into play but make sure that you watch only those films which have English subtitles because if it is not available, then you will be left irritated and frustrated. We have to make this process easy for you not hard.

7. LEARN THE NATIVE CULTURE OF THE PEOPLE

Do you know about our ancient Indian culture, how do you feel? I think we all feel proud of our Indian culture and feel a type of connection with each other this same applies to other people too because they too feel proud of their culture. So, if you google about their culture and living then you will be amazed at dozens of knowledge and information of the other culture and how they live. who is their idol god? what do they do for a living? and a lot of information which might astonish that is that so?!. So, now it's time for learning.

8. TEST YOURSELF

The most crucial part of this whole learning story i.e: testing yourself. Ask yourself again and again what you had learned just now? or try to analyze what is completed and what is left behind. Because tests are not meant to judge ourselves but to make our abilities more stronger than they were earlier. So, it's good practice if you can pass your all tests being conducted by yourself, and Yay! you had learned a new language.
