Almost Checked Of The 'space Is So Aesthetic' And 'fashionable Coats' But My Space Can Just Be Summed

Almost checked of the 'space is so aesthetic' and 'fashionable coats' but my space can just be summed up as messy. I would also have fashionable coats... If I had the spare money to splurge on them 🙃

Something for the quarantine💚

similiar way to prioritize tasks

flexible time blocking

hi! first, I really wanted to thank you for the way you've sorted your master list and everything, it really helped me get back into learning bc I drew a blank after learning hangul. I'm still a little unsure of how to proceed, actually, even though I'm following your order – when should I start doing grammar and vocab? and (this is stupid I kinda know the answer to this) do you recommend I write vocab down? esp since there are flashcard decks and I'd just be rewriting? thank u in advance!

Hi! I think that grammar should be prioritized if you’re just starting. Korean grammar, to an English speaker, is very different and hard for many, so I think that taking the time to make sure you have a solid understanding of basic grammar will really set you up for future success! I would also recommend taking your time -- don’t rush! Study a little everyday if you can!

I think following a curriculum like my masterlist or that of Talk to Me in Korean is a great idea as well. This allows you to gradually progress and lets you go at your own pace!

That said, you should still sprinkle vocab throughout your grammar studies. You don’t want to learn a bunch of grammar but not have any vocab to plug into it! I recommend you check out howtostudykorean.com because each of his lessons has a vocab list to go with it, so as your grammar advances, so does your vocab! And you get to learn both simultaneously!

And about how exactly to learn vocab, it really depends on the person. If you find that writing words down (perhaps multiple times to memorize them) is helpful, then go for it! For me personally, I like playing app games like Drops or Memrise to practice vocab. Maybe watching K-dramas or watching K-pop lyric videos are helpful for some. Maybe you could even make your own deck of flashcards -- get creative and see what works for you! I hope this helps! 화이팅!

(P.S. Sorry if I’m really slow on answering these asks! I try to only post one ask per day to not overwhelm your guys’ feed lol but I might start posting more per day since my inbox is filled with great questions! Keep the questions coming -- I’ll answer them soon!)

From Beginner to Intermediate: an intense plan for advancing in language

Introduction

I studied Spanish at school for 3 years and now I'm at a low B1 level. I can actually understand pretty well while listening or reading but I can't communicate fluently.

This plan will include vocabulary build up, some grammar revision, a lot of listening, reading and writing. And could be used for the most languages, not only Spanish.

Plan

Every day:

Conjugate one verb in present, past and future tenses

Make a list about 10 - 30 words long

Create flashcards with them and start learning them (I use Quizlet for flashcards)

Revise yesterday's set of flashcards

2-3 times a week:

Read an article or a few pages from a book

Write a few sentences about anything in your target language

Listen to one episode of podcast (at least one)

Once a week or every two weeks:

Watch a movie in your target language, preferably animated movie as the language used there is easier. You can watch with subtitles

Grammar exercises

Translate some short text

Once a month:

Write something longer, like an essay or report, on chosen topic

Additionally:

Talk to yourself, to your friends, to your pets

Text with someone

Look at the transcription while listening to the podcast for second time

Repeat what you hear (in podcast or movie)

Check words you don't know from the listening and reading

Read out loud

Listen to music in your target language - you can even learn the text and sing along

Watch YouTube in your target language

Change your phone language to the one you're learning

Think in you target language!!!

***This is very intense plan for self-learners, you don't have to do all of these things in the given time. Adjust it to your own pace. I'll try to stick to this, if I have enough time.***
