Hello and welcome to 6 Minute English from BBC Learning English.
2
I'm Neil and today I'm here with Hannah from BBC podcast What in the World.
3
Hello Hannah.
4
Hi Neil.
5
Hannah and the What in the World team have been investigating what it's like to learn multiple languages
6
and she's here to tell us more about it.
7
Welcome to 6 Minute English.
8
Thank you so much for having me.
9
And it's great to have you here.
10
Now, in this programme we help you improve your English
11
and maybe English is the first language you have ever tried to learn.
12
Or maybe you know a lot of languages.
13
Well, someone who knows multiple languages is called a polyglot.
14
Neil, are you a polyglot?
15
I speak a little bit of a few languages but I couldn't say that I'm a polyglot.
16
How about you?
17
I am a polyglot.
18
Wow, I feel really impressed and a bit intimidated.
19
Now, Hannah, we always start our programme off with a question.
20
So, here it goes.
21
Which country has the most official languages recognised by their government?
22
So, is it a Zimbabwe,
23
b Switzerland or c Bolivia?
24
I would guess Zimbabwe.
25
Well, we'll find out the answer at the end of the programme.
26
Now, Hannah, you've been finding out about some of the benefits of being a polyglot.
27
Yes, Neil, there's been lots of research about how knowing more than one language can change your brain.
28
And this might have some health benefits too.
29
At What in the World,
30
we spoke to Professor Frédéric Liégeois,
31
who's a cognitive neuroscientist at University College London.
32
Babies, even before they speak,
33
have to tune into the languages around them to make sense out of what people say to them.
34
And then when children start to speak several languages,
35
they have to focus on one language and ignore another one where they're speaking.
36
They also have to be able to switch from one language to the other,
37
depending on who they're speaking to.
38
Later on in age, when adults have dementia,
39
they seem to show symptoms later when they're bilinguals as opposed to monolinguals.
40
We think that juggling several languages has helped them really boost this brain efficiency,
41
which is a great advantage.
42
It's like a brain workout.
43
Frederic explains that babies who grow up learning more than one language have to tune into the languages around them.
44
They have to listen to each language.
45
Over time, they become good at switching languages and ignoring the ones they don't need in a conversation.
46
Scientists think that juggling several languages is good for you.
47
If you juggle several things,
48
that means you deal with all of them at the same time.
49
Frederic describes being a polyglot as a brain workout.
50
This means it's exercise for your brain that can make it stronger.
51
Now, Hannah, I don't know about you.
52
When I was younger and languages just seemed like another subject at school,
53
I didn't really care so much.
54
But when I worked abroad later in life,
55
I was much more motivated and found it easier.
56
How about you?
57
Quite the opposite, actually.
58
I did find it easier to learn languages at school and university.
59
But I didn't have to learn these languages out of necessity.
60
But my colleague, Victoria Unwankunde,
61
she's a presenter and a journalist on the BBC World Service, she did.
62
She speaks five languages and she understands eight.
63
And she learnt those languages because her family moved from Rwanda to Kenya and then to Norway when she was a teenager.
64
Victoria says she was able to pick up Norwegian quite easily.
65
If you pick up a skill,
66
it means you learn it,
67
usually by being in the environment where that thing happens,
68
rather than being taught.
69
But Victoria's parents found it much harder to learn Norwegian.
70
Let's hear what Vic said on the What in the World podcast.
71
First of all, you're having them coming into a new culture completely from everything they've ever known.
72
The language is new.
73
These are people in their 50s,
74
you know, but they soldiered on because if you want to work,
75
if you want to live there, you have to learn.
76
And they did.
77
It wasn't easy.
78
But I think also with us kids,
79
we picked it up quite quickly.
80
So if they were making a mistake,
81
we were also helping them along the way.
82
So, it's kind of a way of paying back.
83
You helped us get to this,
84
you know, to keep our mother tongue and here we are going to help you.
85
Victoria's parents found it difficult to learn Norwegian in their 50s,
86
but they soldiered on.
87
They continued doing something even though it was difficult.
88
And I love that the family helped each other with their languages, Hannah.
89
Yes, so Vic's parents helped them keep their mother tongue,
90
Kinyaranda, when they had to leave Rwanda.
91
And then years later, the children helped their parents learn Norwegian.
92
Hannah, Victoria picked up Norwegian quite easily,
93
even after learning four other languages.
94
Did Victoria have any tips for learning so many languages?
95
Well, one thing she recommended is trying to immerse yourself in the language.
96
So she said, go to the market or into the street,
97
a place where you can listen to people using the language.
98
Yes, and some learners might be learning English online and
99
so they don't have the opportunity to to go to a market or street and hear the language.
100
Yes, and some learners might be learning English online and
101
so they don't have the opportunity to go to a market or street and hear the language.
102
But there are other things that you can do.
103
For example, you can listen to 6 Minute English or you could try other BBC podcasts like What in the World too.
104
What in the World is the programme that I work on and we put out a new episode every weekday.
105
We look at stories from around the world covering news
106
and trending topics to try to help you make sense of the world.
107
Time now for the answer to our quiz question.
108
I asked you which country has the most officially recognised languages?
109
I said Zimbabwe.
110
And I'm afraid that was the wrong answer.
111
It was in fact Bolivia,
112
which recognises 37 languages, though of course not everyone speaks all of them.
113
Now let's recap the vocabulary that we have learned,
114
starting with polyglot, which is someone who knows lots of languages like me.
115
If you tune in to something,
116
you listen or pay attention to it.
117
Juggling several things, like languages,
118
means doing several different things at the same time.
119
A brain workout is exercise for your brain.
120
If you pick up a skill,
121
you learn it, usually through practice rather than being taught.
122
And if you soldier on,
123
you continue doing something even though it's difficult.
124
Thanks for listening to 6 Minute English
125
and listen to the full episode of What in the world about polyglots and learning languages,
126
there's a link in the notes below this programme.

इस पाठ के बारे में

इस पाठ में, आप बहुस्वाभाविक व्यक्तियों (polyglots) के जीवन और कई भाषाएँ सीखने के लाभ के बारे में जानेंगे। इस चर्चा में, आप जानेंगे कि भाषा सीखने से आपके मस्तिष्क पर क्या सकारात्मक प्रभाव पड़ता है और कैसे यह आपके संज्ञानात्मक कौशल को सुधार सकता है। जब आप अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास करेंगे, तो यह जानकारी आपके संवाद कौशल को और बेहतर बनाने में मदद करेगी। हमारा लक्ष्य है कि आप यूट्यूब से अंग्रेजी सीखें और अपने भाषा कौशल को मजबूत करें।

मुख्य शब्दावली और वाक्यांश

  • polyglot - बहुभाषाविद्
  • cognitive neuroscientist - संज्ञानात्मक तंत्रिका विज्ञानी
  • dementia - डिमेंशिया
  • language switch - भाषा परिवर्तन
  • brain workout - मस्तिष्क की कसरत
  • juggling languages - भाषाओं को संतुलित करना
  • tune into - ध्यान केंद्रित करना
  • bilingual - द्विभाषिक

अभ्यास के टिप्स

जब आप इस वीडियो को देखें, तो shadowing तकनीक का उपयोग करें। इसके लिए आप पहले वीडियो को सुनें और उसके बाद उसे दोहराएं। इस गति में अभ्यास करना महत्वपूर्ण है, क्योंकि यह आपके बोलने की प्रवाहिता को बढ़ाएगा। हर वाक्य को पहले ध्यान से सुनें, फिर खुद बोलें और ध्यान दें कि आप शब्दों को कैसे समाप्त करते हैं।

आपने देखा होगा कि shadowspeak भी बेहद फायदेमंद हो सकता है। जब आप दूसरे व्यक्तियों की तरह बोला जाता है, तो आप उनकी उच्चारण और लहजे को भी सीखते हैं। यह सुनिश्चित करें कि आप धीरे-धीरे बोलें ताकि आप सही उच्चारण का अभ्यास कर सकें।

अंत में, यह याद रखें कि भाषा का अभ्यास नियमितता से करना चाहिए। नियमित रूप से अंग्रेजी बोलने का अभ्यास सुनिश्चित करें और अपने कौशल के विकास के लिए shadowing site का उपयोग करें। इस तरह, आप धीरे-धीरे एक सफल polyglot बनने की दिशा में आगे बढ़ेंगे।

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
