1
I'm going to show you how to learn lots
2
and lots of vocabulary in any language because
3
if you've ever felt like you're just learning the same words over
4
and over again and forgetting anything new well you're definitely not alone.
5
I've been teaching and learning languages for over 25 years, I've taught thousands of students, I've written books in over three dozen different languages now
6
and I've become convinced that forgetting vocabulary has almost nothing to do with memory.
7
It's almost entirely a method problem and once you understand that well, words will stop vanishing from your brain and start sticking instead.
8
And best of all, there's a really fascinating science behind all of this as well.
9
So in this video, I will show you the real reason why words keep slipping out of your mind,
10
what your brain actually needs to do in order to remember them,
11
and then the one simple method you can follow that will help these new words stick,
12
even if you are a complete beginner and have the worst memory on the planet.
13
So there's something about learning vocabulary that's been winding me up for years, and it's probably the number one reason that students run out of steam
14
and give up on languages all together i've seen
15
this happen a thousand times you have a great learning session with a teacher
16
or by yourself and there's a whole bunch of new words on your flashcards
17
or you're learning in an app
18
or even with those beautiful visual dictionaries you know the ones with the pictures in
19
and when you test yourself at the end you get all 10 words right success well done
20
but then a few days later what happens well you try to remember them
21
and nine and a half of those words are completely gone.
22
Sound familiar?
23
This is where it all starts to unravel, because that's usually the moment that people start believing, well, I'm just horrible at languages,
24
I have a terrible memory, and it can be very disheartening, and believe me, I've been there a lot.
25
Most people think that forgetting words means they've got a bad memory, but that's not what's happening.
26
See, your brain doesn't store words the way that most people imagine in some kind of big mental dictionary.
27
No, it's actually more like this.
28
This is the first time we've been able to map the semantic systems of the brain in such detail discovering
29
that words are grouped by meaning and revealing just how complicated
30
and widespread the word maps in our heads really are your
31
brain already has this incredible map of meanings built from your
32
personal life experiences think of a dog your brain already has a place for everything
33
it knows about dogs the furry animal the barking sound the feeling of touching it
34
and probably a few dogs
35
that you've loved yourself over the years the word dog is simply the label
36
that your brain attached to all of that now suppose
37
that someone tells you that xian means dog well you can memorize it sure
38
but that doesn't mean your brain knows
39
that the word xian belongs in the dog category
40
and this is where most vocabulary learning goes wrong people take the word out of the language
41
you see a word on the left a translation on the right
42
and nothing going on around it at all which feels organized like you're in some kind of filing cabinet,
43
but your brain's got no reason whatsoever to hang on to the word xian, which is French for dog, by the way.
44
And when you sit down with a word that has no story, no feeling, no memory, no earthly reason to be there,
45
your brain has no obvious place to put it.
46
And so it does the sensible thing.
47
It chucks it out.
48
It's being efficient.
49
You see, it was actually helping you all along.
50
And that's why you keep forgetting words.
51
You never really learned the word.
52
You learned the translation, but luckily methods can be changed.
53
But before I you how.
54
I put together a guide that's going to help you here called Binge Worthy Resources.
55
It's a downloadable list of the very best movies, shows, and podcasts across more than 15 languages that we teach here at Story Day.
56
All of these resources have been tested by myself and my team
57
so that you know exactly what to press play on today, because the faster that you find content that you actually enjoy,
58
guess what, the faster those words are going to start stacking up.
59
If you like this list, it's pretty comprehensive, just scan the QR code on the screen with your phone
60
or grab the link below in the description
61
because everything I'm about to show you is going to be a lot easier
62
when you actually have content to apply it to that is actually useful for you and enjoyable.
63
So if memorizing a word to death is not enough to make it stick, what does your brain actually need instead?
64
Well, that's easy.
65
It needs a way to hook that new word onto the meaning that it already knows.
66
Like, you've got to hook it up to all of those doggy things up there in your head.
67
And it turns out that there are three things that help your brain do exactly that.
68
They are repetition, context, and retrieval.
69
And what this means is you've got to meet that same word again and again quite a few times.
70
You need to see it used in meaningful, realistic situations, not just there on the page in your textbook, but actually being used meaningfully.
71
And then you have to make your brain work just a little to remember what it already knows.
72
Now, here's the fascinating part.
73
Your brain already knows how to do all of this.
74
It's been doing it your entire life in a very specific way, through stories.
75
That's right, a good old story will do the trick because stories naturally do three things.
76
They bring the important words back, that's your repetition.
77
They give those words meaning through whatever's happening that's your context, and they keep nudging your brain to work things out for itself, and that's retrieval.
78
And this is a completely different experience from just staring at a list of words in your textbook.
79
Let me show you what I mean.
80
Just follow here with your eyes.
81
It's a little story in Italian.
82
Every evening, Bella stops by the park near her house.
83
She always sits on the same wooden panchina beneath an oak tree.
84
There's an old man who always smiles and waves from a pankina opposite her.
85
One evening, his pankina is empty, but a piece of paper is tied to one of its legs.
86
Bella walks over, sits down, and unties the note from the pankina.
87
Now, I never told you what pankina means, but I wonder if you've already worked it out.
88
It's a bench, of course, and I never asked you to memorise that word.
89
I never translated it while I was reading.
90
Instead, the story brought it back four different times, and each little encounter gave your brain another clue.
91
It's in a park, it's wooden, it has legs, you can sit on it.
92
Without even realizing it, your picture of what that word meant became clearer each time.
93
You weren't even trying to remember a word, you were following a story and your brain worked out the meaning by itself.
94
Now obviously that's a very simple example,
95
but the process is exactly the same because your brain just did the three things that every new word needs.
96
You heard pankina four times.
97
That's repetition.
98
You saw it in different situations with new clues.
99
That's context.
100
And every time your understanding changed, your brain had to reach back through the story and connect the clue to what it already knew,
101
and that is retrieval.
102
And the real difference is, instead of memorizing a definition, your brain built an experience of sorts around the word.
103
And experiences are much harder to forget.
104
So here's the obvious question.
105
If one tiny story can teach you a new word like that, what happens when you read stories like this every single day?
106
Well, first of all, your vocabulary is automatically building.
107
It's unstoppably building, necessarily building.
108
Every story introduces more words you didn't know, but something much more interesting starts happening as well.
109
The words you've already learned stop staying inside those stories.
110
They start turning up somewhere else, even when you least expect it.
111
Maybe in another story, maybe in a podcast, a movie, a conversation.
112
And this is why stories are so effective.
113
When I accidentally discovered this phenomenon for myself, this was way back when I was learning Spanish,
114
I'd be walking down the street and all these new Spanish words from a story
115
that I'd been reading in a book the night before would be popping into my head.
116
I remember this one word, el obispo, which is a very kind of like unusual word.
117
It means bishop in Spanish.
118
No reason that you'd ever kind of set about memorizing this word, I certainly didn't try, but it was the character,
119
one of the main characters in this story that I was reading,
120
and because it popped up so much in the story and I was trying to figure out what it meant,
121
it ended up just taking up resonance in my head without me even trying.
122
And so my ear would start to catch random strangers using these words.
123
It was like my brain became hyper aware of the words, you know, like as soon as you see this red car,
124
some way to see it everywhere right even they've always been red cards.
125
This is the sort of thing that happens
126
when you learn vocabulary inside a story
127
and every time you hear the word in a different place your understanding gets a little deeper
128
because each new encounter adds another little piece to what
129
that word means to you
130
and then it starts to snowball week after week month after month you're
131
so aware of those words that you start noticing them everywhere.
132
Now check this out, this is pretty cool.
133
This linguistics professor Arnold Zwicky actually gave this phenomenon a name, the frequency illusion.
134
It's a bit of a strange name because it's no illusion at all.
135
And the funny sciencey part is once your brain tags a new word as meaningful, it actively hunts for it.
136
So what happens is you start catching that word in videos, books, street signs, everywhere.
137
And every one of those little encounters helps it settle into your memory
138
it's like your own natural spaced repetition system sorry flashcard lovers
139
there's actually a better way suddenly vocabulary stops being an object
140
that you memorize and becomes something that you actually acquire naturally for good
141
and that is brilliant news for language learners
142
because it doesn't happen in one magical moment it grows through lots of small meaningful encounters
143
that gradually add together now there is one little trick to making this all work get this bit right
144
and everything we've talked about starts falling neatly into place.
145
You need the right kind of stories.
146
Ideally one with audio because every new word that you learn has two sides.
147
There's what it means and there's what it sounds like.
148
Reading teaches your brain the meaning.
149
Listening teaches your brain the sound.
150
Put them together and suddenly you're learning the whole word and it's way harder to forget.
151
This is much more memorable and this is especially true with languages where the spelling is quite tricky.
152
If you've ever tried learning French, for example, you know exactly what I mean.
153
That's why it can't just be any old book.
154
You want a story that comes with the audio, that's interesting for you, and that is at your current level.
155
and this bit is the most important bit of all.
156
Now there is a name for this, it's called
157
comprehensible input, which simply means you understand enough to keep following the story
158
while still bumping into a few new words along the way.
159
So it's comprehensible, you can understand it, and it's input.
160
Input is reading and listening, comprehensible.
161
Input means reading at your level, not something that's too hard that you're struggling to understand.
162
If you can get the gist of what's going on, if you can follow the story to whatever degree and enjoy it,
163
you're at the right level and your brain will be able to make a good guess at the rest.
164
So aim for stories where you already understand most of what's happening.
165
Ideally, I would say about 80 to 90 % is a good rule of thumb.
166
If you can understand 80 to 90 % of what you're reading, you're in the right ballpark.
167
If you're stopping every sentence to tap away at Google Translate or check GPT, no, it's too hard.
168
If you understand every single word, then that's too easy.
169
You want something that's right in the middle because that's where your brain can start making those good guesses.
170
Now here's the really important bit.
171
When you come across a word that you don't know, don't just stop immediately and reach for the dictionary.
172
If you can still make sense of the story without knowing what that word means, keep going.
173
Only look it up when you genuinely need to.
174
Like if there's a word that's been blocking your overall understanding of the story and you really need to know it,
175
then you can look it up because your goal is not to know every single word.
176
It's to keep following the story.
177
If you do that consistently, those words will just keep showing up until your brain no longer has to guess.
178
That's one meaningful encounter at a time.
179
And the real benefit of reading as it relates to acquiring vocabulary is not
180
that you try to memorize every word that comes up, but it's to read so much, so widely, so extensively, that the volume of stuff
181
that you're ingesting is so huge that you cannot help but just acquire a bunch of vocabulary.
182
So what happens if you actually do all of this?
183
Well let's say that spend 20 minutes a day reading stories at the right level for you for about three months.
184
Well, after a while, you stop even thinking about vocabulary.
185
You just pick up a new story, and instead of constantly getting stuck, you just keep reading.
186
Because you're stopping less, you read more.
187
And because you read more, you learn even more words.
188
You won't suddenly know thousands of new words, of course, but you will notice something much more exciting.
189
You will stop reaching for the dictionary so often.
190
Words that used to feel completely unfamiliar, it, you'll just kind of know what they mean.
191
Even if you can't literally give the English translation, it's a fantastic experience.
192
You might not even remember where you first came across these words.
193
Maybe it was a lovely little word like luciole.
194
You once saw it in one story and then another and then somewhere else entirely,
195
maybe in a movie, maybe you heard someone say it and you didn't ever look it up.
196
You just figured out from context that it means fireflies.
197
What a wonderful word.
198
Now imagine one warm summer evening, you're sitting outside tiny lights begin dancing through the darkness
199
and without even thinking you smile and you just know
200
and that's where the magic happens the stories
201
that once felt difficult became enjoyable
202
so you naturally move on to slightly harder ones
203
that's how vocabulary really grows one story then another until the language simply becomes part of your life so
204
if you just remember
205
this one thing let it be this don't ask how do
206
i memorize more vocabulary ask how can I give my brain more repetition, more context, and more retrieval?
207
Because those are the three things that make words stick.
208
And reading stories just happens to be the easiest way to get all three.
209
It's a lovely little cycle and something most language learners never get to experience, but you can absolutely experience it.
210
And there's one last piece of the puzzle.
211
Knowing what to read is only half of the battle, and things like the story learning app make this even easier.
212
But you also need to know how to read, so watch this video next because I will show you my exact six -step reading method
213
so every story you read teaches you as much vocabulary as possible.
214
I'll see you over there.
