5 Famous Polyglots and Their Learning Techniques

You may have watched videos of people speaking in multiple languages. Some of them even call themselves hyperpolyglots. Whether they really can speak fluently or not, we don't know unless we test them. However, here I shall present 5 renowned polyglots that have been on the news, in the community worldwide and have proved their exceptional linguistic capabilities.

6 Local Writing Systems in Indonesia

Indonesia is a vast country in Southeast Asia that anyone can recognize easily on the map because it borders the sea, thus its country border is also the sea border. Hundreds of ethnic groups and languages exist in Indonesia. Despite having numerous writing systems, the government recognizes the Latin alphabet as the official writing system, which was introduced during the colonization by the Europeans.

Gilbertese Language

Kiribati (Gilberts) Kiribati (or locally pronounced as "Gilberts") derives from the Gilbert Islands, which is the main island. The name of the Gilbert Islands in indigenous Gilbertese language is " Tungaru ". The Gilbert Islands was named after a British explorer , Thomas Gilbert, who was the first European to discover them. It is home to about 100,000 of I-Kiribati .

Analyzing Taiwanese Learners' Perceptions of English Varieties

Written interviews were used in this study to find out how Taiwanese learners felt about non-native English speakers. The information was gathered from a group of Taiwanese students enrolled in an English language course at a private university language center in the Philippines. The study's conclusion urges Taiwanese learners to become more cognizant of the fact that English is widely used as an international language and to be exposed to more non-native English speakers. The researcher, who teaches in Taiwan, observed that many of his Taiwanese pupils appear to believe that mastering the American standard is necessary for success in learning English. According to the researcher's earlier research, Taiwanese learners found non-native English speakers to sound strange. If the goal of learning English is to communicate in a language that adheres to international standards, this is problematic. The number of non-native English speakers has surpassed that of native speakers. Non-n...

I speak 4 languages in Penang Malaysia and I shall learn 1 more language

I spoke 4 languages: Hokkien, Indonesian, English, and Mandarin on my recent trip to Penang. There was no communication barrier since the Penangnites are mostly multilingual too, at least, they know a bit of each language. They are also familiar with the Indonesian language because of the many tourists from Indonesia, either for tourism or medical checkups. I had learnt Tamil before but it was not enough for me to have a conversation yet. I will learn Tamil more seriously from now on, so I can use it on my next trip to Penang.

Medan Hokkien

Medan Hokkien is a vibrant and distinct dialect of the Hokkien language, primarily spoken by the Chinese Indonesian community in Medan, the capital city of North Sumatra, Indonesia. This dialect is a testament to the region's rich cultural tapestry, reflecting a history of migration, trade, and cultural exchange. History Medan Hokkien's roots can be traced back to the Hokkien-speaking areas of Southern Fujian province in China, particularly the Zhangzhou region. The dialect evolved significantly, especially during the 18th and 19th centuries when trade between the eastern coasts of Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula flourished. The influx of Chinese laborers, mainly from Penang, brought the Hokkien dialect, which mingled with the local languages and customs, giving rise to the unique variant we know today as Medan Hokkien. Medan Hokkien is a means of communication and a carrier of cultural identity for the Chinese Indonesian community. It encapsulates the history of migration, the...

Uzbek language: A Central Asian treasure

Yulduzkhan Turgunova Uzbek is the official language of Uzbekistan and belongs to the Turkic language family. It is spoken by over 32 million people and has several dialects, with Northern and Southern Uzbek being the most prominent. Historically written in Arabic script, Uzbek transitioned to Latin script in the 1920s and later to Cyrillic script during the Soviet era. Since Uzbekistan's independence in 1991, there has been a renewed effort to promote the Latin alphabet. The language reflects a rich cultural heritage, incorporating influences from Persian, Arabic, and Russian, making it a vital part of Central Asian identity. As a language enthusiast, the Turkic languages are also a treasure awaiting to be discovered. I began with learning the most popular Turkic language, that is Turkish. Then I read somewhere that Uzbek is even the easiest Turkic language because it lacks vowel harmony and other aspects of the Turkic languages. It is quite easy to find learning materials for Uzbe...

Fast way to learn Tamil alphabet

I have wanted to learn Tamil for a long time, but lack of motivation hindered my progress. I struggled to decide whether to learn the alphabet first or go straight to the conversation using romanization. I felt demotivated whenever I looked at the alphabet chart. The Tamil alphabet has 13 vowels and 18 consonants, and many combinations of these vowels and consonants. I thought to myself how am I going to remember all of this?

Why don't you learn these popular invented languages?

I often encounter invented languages when researching the latest stories in language learning. Out of curiosity, I picked up one invented language to learn: Esperanto. Gladly, I made a good decision because Esperanto turned out to be the easiest language that I had ever learned at that time. I submitted a short article to an Esperanto magazine in Brazil after 4 months of learning Esperanto, and it was published one month later! Esperanto is just one of many invented languages in this world. Here are some of the popular ones. Esperanto is a language designed for international communication and understanding. It has simple and regular grammar, and its vocabulary is based on root words from major European languages. Esperanto has been used for over a century, and it has a global community of speakers. Toki Pona is a minimalist language designed for simplicity and clarity. It uses a small vocabulary and grammatical structure to express basic concepts. Its goal is to promote peace, simplici...
