1
Learning a language is so hard.
2
Dude, learning a language is easy.
3
I'm doing it right now.
4
You're not learning a language.
5
You're just watching videos.
6
Maddox, it's 2026.
7
People don't learn a language by reading textbooks anymore.
8
We learn with comprehensible input.
9
What is comprehensible input?
10
It's doing what I'm doing right now, watching videos in another language that you can understand,
11
and then your brain will make connections automatically so you can learn without working.
12
You just get to watch videos.
13
Have you ever wondered what a gas station is like in the United States of America?
14
Well, today you will find out as well as learn vocation.
15
He's not in the driver's seat.
16
or the - This thing, the gas cap on the - It says replace nozzle.
17
And they're called squeegees.
18
They are open 24 hours a day.
19
Wow.
20
That was so helpful.
21
Dude, see?
22
That's what I'm saying.
23
Comprehensible input is the only way to learn a language
24
but how do I make sure I'm learning with comprehensible input as fast as possible?
25
That's a good question.
26
Today we're answering that question.
27
But today we are not only going to answer that one question.
28
We are also going to answer two other very important questions.
29
Question one, what is comprehensible input?
30
Question two, why should you use comprehensible input instead of any of the other methods of learning?
31
And question three is the one that we already asked.
32
How can you use comprehensible input to learn as fast as possible?
33
What should you do to make sure that your learning is effective
34
and that you can become fluent as fast as you possibly can?
35
Let's go to question one.
36
Question one.
37
What is comprehensible input?
38
Comprehensible input is input, which is what you're taking in.
39
So output would be like talking.
40
Input is like a video or reading a book or something that you're taking into your brain,
41
something someone else is saying that is coming into you.
42
That's input.
43
And comprehensible means it's understandable or it's something you can follow.
44
So this is a video that you can follow.
45
So it's comprehensible input.
46
Now, how do you know if the comprehensible input is too hard or too easy for you?
47
So, this is a good question.
48
You should be able to understand anywhere from 70 to 95 % of the comprehensible input you're watching.
49
So, if you can understand 70 to 95 % of what I'm saying, then that is good.
50
Not 70 to 95 % of the words that I'm saying, but of the concepts and the topics.
51
So if you're following 70 to 95 % of my thoughts and the concepts and the things that I'm saying, then that is good.
52
Not 70 to 95 % of the words.
53
You can still make progress understanding only 30 % of a video,
54
but it's much less effective and you'll learn a lot faster if you can understand more of a video.
55
The reason this works is because our brains are so good at making connections by themselves.
56
I mean
57
if you think about it all of us learned our native languages like I learned English without an English teacher
58
I was just around English, being around and submerged in English.
59
And so you, by watching videos like this, are just being around English and submerged in English and
60
so your brain will start to understand and make connections and just understand by itself.
61
You don't need to tell it anything or teach it anything.
62
It's all subconscious.
63
It happens by itself.
64
Pretty cool.
65
Okay, now that you know exactly what comprehensible input is let's get on to question two why comprehensible input
66
well a big reason is that it just works we have lots
67
and lots of studies explaining why comprehensible input works
68
and we know for a fact
69
that it does i am a testament to this i actually studied Spanish using comprehensible input
70
and I took about 500 hours of listening Spanish.
71
That's how much input I have and I can already understand a lot in Spanish.
72
And it trains your most important skill which is listening.
73
It's very very important that you're able to understand the person that's talking to you.
74
If you want to come to North America and start talking to someone who is from the United States,
75
then you need to be able to understand what they're saying.
76
And so, comprehensible input, what you're doing is you're listening a lot.
77
And so, it really really helps your listening practice.
78
Also, it's just fun.
79
Like, watching this video is probably a lot more enjoyable than reading a textbook and studying grammar.
80
Like making the connections in your brain and doing no work
81
and just watching a video is
82
so much better than trying to figure out how grammar structure works and vocabulary and all of that stuff.
83
This is so much better.
84
Also you can learn doing anything you can go on a run
85
or you can go on a walk or a hike
86
or you can be cleaning in your house
87
and have earbuds in listening to comprehensible input you can listen to podcasts this is what I like to do
88
and that way you can go and do whatever you want to do
89
and still be getting input I plan on releasing a podcast soon.
90
Stay tuned.
91
Alright, now that we answered what comprehensible input is and why it's the best method, it's time to answer the big question.
92
How do I make sure I'm learning as fast as possible?
93
This is a good question because we need to make sure that we're not wasting our time when we're studying English.
94
So, like I said earlier a very important thing is to just be submersed in input
95
and listen as much as possible a big thing
96
that will help is podcasts if you can find podcasts to listen to then
97
that will be a big help you can go on a drive
98
and listen to an english podcast and learn just while you're driving
99
so if you're driving for an hour that's a free hour of input
100
that you could be getting if you're at your house
101
and you have some free time don't start watching movies in your language start watching videos in english
102
that are comprehensible just like this so make sure you're always around the language
103
and also make sure you're always understanding at least 30 of what you're watching
104
If you're watching a video and it sounds like this, don't keep watching it.
105
You need to be understanding at least 30%, but the more you can understand, the better.
106
So those are the biggest things.
107
Make sure you're taking in as much input as you can.
108
That will really help you advance in English as fast as possible and make sure that you're understanding it.
109
Maddox, dude, have you been ignoring me this entire time?
110
Why do you have headphones on?
111
What?
112
I've been listening to a comprehensible input podcast.
113
I've learned so much.
114
Oh.
115
Stay tuned, guys.
116
We are about to launch the English podcast on our channel.
117
Hey. That was a sneeze.
118
People sneeze when they're happy.
119
See?
120
See?
121
He's happy.
122
He's happy.
123
Time to answer some frequently asked questions.
124
I'm going to make some tea while I explain this to you guys
125
so I need a mug this is the best mug we have it has Maddox right here and our friend keegs
126
right here walking like an Egyptian.
127
Keegs is the little brother of Peg.
128
If you remember Peg from one of our last videos, this is Keegs.
129
Do you see the resemblance?
130
I do.
131
They're pretty similar.
132
Not really.
133
Question number one.
134
How many hours of comprehensible input do you need to be fluent in a language.
135
You need a lot
136
and that's why I said to be listening as much as you possibly can
137
because probably around 2 ,000 hours is
138
when you can do really anything in the language and you're basically a native at that point.
139
Like I said, I'm around 500 hours in Spanish and I can understand most things as long as they stay on topic,
140
but I still can't understand everything.
141
So you need a lot.
142
Just listen, listen, listen, watch, watch, watch, and if you're reading, then read, read, read.
143
Get as much input as you possibly can.
144
This is so funny.
145
Kids these days.
146
Another frequently asked question is how do you know when you should move up to harder content?
147
Like how do you know
148
if you should switch from watching my videos to going on
149
to a harder channel like a native speaker like Mr. Beast or something?
150
Just like I said, once you can understand 70 to 90 percent, then you can move on.
151
So if you watch a Mr. Beast video and you're understanding almost everything, you can keep watching.
152
That's going to help you learn.
153
But if you're understanding very little, it's not going to be helpful and you should keep watching learning videos like mine.
154
This also goes for the podcast that we're going to make.
155
We're going to make the podcast
156
and it's probably going to be a little bit harder to understand
157
and follow than this is but as long as you're understanding 70 to 90 percent, you're good.
158
Hot, hot, hot.
159
I burnt my tongue.
160
And for the final frequently asked question, when do you start talking?
161
And how does that work?
162
Because the way that we're learning is only by listening.
163
So do you have to practice talking? yes but not in the way
164
that you would think so talking comes a lot easier
165
when you've heard a lot of the language
166
if i've heard the expression i'm gonna have a good day a lot
167
i'm probably not gonna say i'm gonna have a day good
168
so that's why comprehensible input is so cool is
169
because you listen a lot before you start talking that's the goal
170
so listen listen listen if i've heard I'm gonna have a good day.
171
I'm gonna have a good day.
172
I'm gonna have a good day over and over from
173
so many different people all the time then
174
when I actually go to speak I'm probably gonna say it like I heard it.
175
I'm gonna have a good day instead of using wrong grammar like I'm gonna have a day good
176
or a good day I'm gonna have you know you're not gonna speak like
177
that because you've heard so much of the right grammar that you know exactly how to word things.
178
So you do still need some practice, but you're not going to need a ton of practice.
179
I would say after you've heard a lot, like once you've gotten like 500 -ish hours of input,
180
and if you don't know how much input you've had, if you can understand native speakers pretty well,
181
you're probably ready to start speaking and at
182
that point you want to just speak to someone who is a native
183
so try talking to someone and it's going to come pretty hard at first
184
but also not too bad you'll find that because you've heard
185
so much you've heard and taken in
186
so much input it's not going to be super hard to form what you're trying to think
187
because you know the words to say
188
you just have to start training your mind to start bringing those words up and speaking them.
189
So long story short, once you've heard a lot of input is when you should start talking
190
and practice just talking to someone who also speaks good English.
191
The main reason that I say
192
that you should wait to start talking until you've heard a lot of input is because it really helps your accent.
193
So you're not going to have as much of an accent if you've heard a lot of the language.
194
If I've heard the word log a lot, log, log, log, log, if I've heard it from so many different people,
195
then I'm going to know that you don't say it like lig, log, leg, like I'm going to be like,
196
oh yeah, you say it like log.
197
My brain is going to start making me automatically start saying it like log.
198
So maybe at first I'm going to have an accent.
199
Maybe at first I'm going to say lig, lig, depending on what language is my native language.
200
But then after a little bit, I'll keep saying it and my brain will start correcting it because it knows it's not supposed to be lig,
201
it's supposed to be log.
202
So the more you say it, the more your brain will correct it.
203
And then another reason is just that you want your grammar to be good.
204
You want to be speaking in proper sentence structure
205
and you have to have listened to a lot of input
206
in order to know how a sentence should be structured and that will come automatically.
207
That's what's so cool about comprehensible input.
208
You don't have to think about what you're saying.
209
Like if you're learning from a textbook
210
and then you try to speak you're gonna be like okay
211
this word goes first then this word then this word
212
but with comprehensible input your brain just automatically knows this word comes then this word comes then this word comes
213
and you're gonna speak it just fine because you've heard it
214
so much but if you haven't heard enough input you might start speaking with improper sentence structure
215
if that's fine that you speak with improper sentence structure once in a
216
while and with an accent then you can speak whenever you want
217
but if you want those to be as good as possible, I would say wait to speak before you've heard lots and lots of input.
218
It's totally up to you.
219
So we've learned a lot today.
220
We learned what comprehensible input even is and why it's the best method
221
and how to study with comprehensible input so that we improve as fast as possible.
222
Now let's go have some fun.
223
Let's actually learn using comprehensible input for the next few minutes.
224
This is gonna be good.
225
Now you may be wondering why I got all dressed up.
226
I also told Maddox to get all dressed up and he doesn't even know why we're dressed up.
227
Maddox why do you think we're dressed up?
228
Um because it makes you really good at math?
229
He's doing math right now.
230
No, being dressed up does not make you good at math.
231
At least I don't think so.
232
The reason we are all dressed up is because we are going to compete Maddox against me in a dance competition.
233
Oh yeah!
234
Oh no!
235
First, let's compare our outfits because the outfit is the most important part to being a good dancer.
236
This is my hat.
237
It's a Freedom 250 hat, which was a race that
238
Formula One drivers did in Washington, D .C., the capital of the United States.
239
It was just a couple of days ago.
240
Going down we have my very nice flower shirt.
241
This has flowers all over it and it's a button up so you have to button all these different buttons.
242
There's like a million different buttons going all the way down and it's blue.
243
It's nice and it's gonna help me dance really good.
244
And then I also have these dress pants and these white shoes.
245
Basically, this was the best dancing fit outfit that's short for outfit.
246
This was the best dancing fit that I could find in my closet.
247
It's the best dancing fit out there.
248
Let's see Maddox's.
249
This is my outfit.
250
I've got a pink pineapple do -rag.
251
which helps me keep my head in the game so I'm locked in the entire time.
252
I've got an 80s PartyTron button -up shirt, just like Jaden's where you button it up.
253
So it's 80s because it looks like a shirt that would be from like 40 years ago, the decade of the 80s,
254
because they would always wear crazy stuff like this.
255
And then party Tron is like a made -up word that just means like crazy and cool like this.
256
And then I've got these shorts.
257
I don't really know what they are or where they came from, but they look like a painting of like, I think that's like the moon,
258
but this is also the moon.
259
There's a lot of moons.
260
And then it's like a rug, like a rug like that,
261
because it has these fringes on the edge to give it some nice style.
262
And now all the way at the bottom.
263
I've got no shoes because shoes just restrict my mobility I got to be loose for the dance,
264
you know No shoes
265
No problem Okay, it's time for the dance competition
266
first First, Jayden will dance to a 15 second song.
267
And then I will dance to a 15 second song.
268
Jayden will respond with a 20 second song.
269
And then I will answer back with another 20 second song.
270
And then the winner, me, will be decided at the end.
271
He's happy.
272
Remember sneezes mean he's happy.
273
He shouldn't be happy.
274
He's going to lose.
275
Pride comes before the fall.
276
That's a saying here.
277
Actually, that's from the Bible.
278
First up, Jaden.
279
Oh yeah!
280
13, 14, 15.
281
No. Rest in peace.
282
Woo.
283
I feel pretty good about my dance.
284
I definitely went a little over on the time, but that's okay.
285
I stepped across all of the stools just like I wanted to do, and then I started breaking it down and dancing just as I intended.
286
The only thing is I went a little over on the time.
287
Still better than Maddox.
288
Round one is over.
289
I'm feeling pretty confident in my performance.
290
I definitely had a few miscalculations with my roll went straight into the couch.
291
Jaden definitely has some slight advantages like a tennis racket
292
and he went over on the time which I was not allowed to do
293
so his still wasn't better and I'm coming for the W round two.
294
I underestimated my opponent.
295
I need reinforcements.
296
Don't tell Jayden.
297
All right.
298
Maddox, are you ready?
299
Do you think you can beat me?
300
Oh, yeah.
301
I've got this one down.
302
Dude, remember the outfit is what makes you a good dancer, and you don't even have your outfit on.
303
I left my outfit in the bathroom.
304
I'll be right back.
305
Kids these days.
306
Thank you.
307
Good game.
308
Psyche!
309
Oh yeah!
310
Oh yeah!
311
He got so psyched out.
312
A psych is when you're gonna shake someone's hand or you're gonna like do something to someone or give someone something.
313
And then you completely do the opposite and say psych.
314
It's really funny if you're in my position.
315
If you're in his position, it's not funny.
316
Okay, good game, good game, good game.
317
He thinks he can get me two in a row.
318
No, I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna.
319
Nah.
320
I'm gonna shake your hand.
321
Come on, good game.
322
You did good.
323
I know I did good.
324
That's why he psyched me, because he's trying to redeem himself by making me look bad because he knows that I won.
325
What?
326
Okay, good game.
327
Okay, well, guys, he did good.
328
I did good.
329
We're both professional dancers by now.
330
He did good.
331
I did better.
332
The duck mask was definitely a good secret weapon.
333
I was not expecting that.
334
And the way he just peeked around the corner, that was pretty good, I must say.
335
So you guys, let us know.
336
Did I win or did Maddox win?
337
Let us know in the comments.
338
Say I won.
339
Can't be a duck mask.
340
Well, good game.
341
Psych!
342
Oh yeah!
343
Kids these days.
344
Now that you guys know how to effectively and quickly learn with comprehensible input,
345
make sure that you subscribe and watch the future videos that we have coming out.
346
They'll help you a lot as you learn more English.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
