Steps
步骤
STEP 1 Take a group class
1.参加小组课堂
Take a group language class rather than hiring a private tutor. You'll learn from others' mistakes and have friends to practice with. Read, write, translate, and speak the language daily.
参加小组语言课堂,而不是聘用私人教师 。你可以从其他人的错误中学习,也有朋友可以一起练习 。每天都要练习这种语言的读,写,翻译和口语 。
STEP 2 Immerse yourself
2.熏陶
Immerse yourself in the culture. Travel to the country that speaks the language you wish to learn and start soaking up the sounds -- the best way to become fluent. Consider working or volunteering abroad and living with a host family.
让自己浸入这种语言的文化 。如果你想学习某种语言,到说这种语言的国家旅游,开始学习他们的发音——这是流利说出一门语言的最佳方法 。考虑到国外工作或做志愿者,与当地家庭住在一起 。
If you can't travel abroad, find a section of a city that speaks your target language, hang out there, and engage in conversation with native speakers.
如果你不能到国外旅行,找一个说你所学语言的城市,经常在那里徘徊,与当地人对话 。
STEP 3 Imitate
3.模仿
Imitate the expressions and sounds of the locals. Watch how they move their mouths and try to copy them exactly whether you know what they're saying or not. Eventually, these phrases will come out naturally when you need them.
模仿当地人的表达方式和发音 。观察他们的口型,无论你是否知道他们在说什么,尽量模仿 。最终,当你需要的时候,这些表达方式就会脱口而出 。
Resisting the urge to translate everything or memorizing specific phrases is key for obtaining fluency fast.
拒绝将一切都翻译过来或者记忆特别的词组的冲动是流利掌握一门外语的关键 。
STEP 4 Ask questions and write down phrases
4.提问题,写下表达方式
Memorize the phrases "What is this called?" and "How do you say that?" Ask the locals on a daily basis to find out about things you're interested in but don't know how to say. Write down phrases you didn't fully understand and look them up in a dictionary later.
记住这两个表达方式:“这个东西叫什么?”和“某句话怎么说?”每天向当地人请教你感兴趣却不知道怎么表达的内容 。写下你不能完全理解的表达方式,稍后用字典查询 。
STEP 5 Watch movies and TV
5.看电影和电视
Watch foreign-language movies and television without subtitles, listen to music, and read foreign newspapers or magazines to help the language effortlessly seep into you mind.
观看没有字幕的电影或电视,听音乐,读英文报纸或杂志,可以轻松地将这种语言植入你的脑海中 。
STEP 6 Learn from mistakes
6.从错误中学习
Learn from your mistakes. Make a note of them and take the time to work on them to improve.
从错误中学习 。做笔记,花费时间来弄明白,有利于提高你的外语水平 。
STEP 7 Keep in touch
7.与你认识的外国人保持联系
Keep in touch with people you meet abroad. E-mailing or writing on their Facebook wall is a great way to keep up your new language skills.
与你在国外认识的人保持联系 。电子邮件或者在他们的脸书留言板上留言都是提高外语技能的好方法 。
A study by the British Foreign Office found that the most difficult language to learn is Basque, spoken in parts of Spain and France, followed closely by Hungarian.
英国外交办公室一项研究发现,最难学的语言是巴斯克语,西班牙和法国部分地区使用这种语言,紧随其后的是匈牙利语 。
