This method will work with other languages too.
A new interesting thread has appeared on Twitter. In it, renowned illustrator Chilik talks about a method that helped him learn new words in English.
Over the past ten years, I have sat down a hundred times to study English vocabulary and somehow nothing. The situation worsened with age. I resigned myself and decided that everything, I was already over 25, and after 25 the brain rejects everything new.
But there was a way out!
Once I ended up in Istanbul and decided that I needed to learn Turkish numerals in order to bargain more convincingly in the markets.
Then I remembered how, at school, I learned alternating vowels in the roots zor / zar, clone / clan, creator / creature, gor / gar.
In the comments, readers suggested a couple of learning paths that helped them master English.
This, by the way, really helps a lot. For a couple of years I did almost nothing for the language, except watching simple serials with Russian subwoofers, and suddenly realized that I could watch with English subwoofers and understand the context quite comfortably.
How I learned English:
- buy a pirate Nancy Drew.
- go crazy with a promtovsky translation.
- return the English version.
Congratulations, you are now in the world of spoken English, encyclopedic knowledge and unusual idioms.
