Why did Esperanto fail as a common language?

I learned Esperanto out of curiosity, and I am not a fanatic Esperantist. I know many Esperantists from various countries, even those who don’t speak English or other major international languages well. Our friendship wouldn’t have happened without Esperanto. Esperanto is successful in this aspect. I believe Esperanto is not perfect, no language in this world is perfect. Esperanto is not perfect or has failed because people who opposed it promote negative comments about it. If they don’t want to learn it, they can leave it and don’t need to comment. They express negative comments in articles or videos to attract uneducated followers who would jump to conclusions without further research. Esperanto is indeed Euro-centric. The creator lived in a European neighborhood. Esperanto would be Asian-centric if the creator had lived in Asia when he created Esperanto. This Euro-centric characteristic is not a problem for Asian Esperantists. They care more about how useful Esperanto is than what E

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?

KomunIKON at the Polyglot Gathering

Another thrilling Polyglot Gathering happened this year in the enchanting city of Prague in the Czech Republic. This is one of the largest events for language-lovers and polyglots worldwide occurring annually in spring. At this year’s event, 735 polyglots from 71 countries met to share a mutual passion for language.

How do you make videos to trick your audiences with your language skills?

You may have watched videos of multilingual people speaking different languages. They seem to talk impeccably whether alone in front of a camera or with someone else. Some even claim themselves as polyglots, a term often used to call people who know and use several languages.

What is my ideal language learning environment?

We must learn languages as often as possible to progress fast. The more you can integrate language learning into your routine, the better results you will get. I frequently use my idle time, such as waiting or walking to read or listen to foreign languages. I needed to change my learning style based on where I was at that time. Key factors for an ideal language learning environment: Immersion Active Engagement Feedback and Correction Motivation and Interest Personalized Learning Examples of ideal language learning environments and my experience: Language immersion programs: Spending time in a country where the target language is spoken. My experience: Living in Taiwan pushes me to learn Mandarin fast. Besides survival purposes, knowing Mandarin is also essential to climbing up my career ladder. Language exchange programs: Pairing with native speakers for conversation practice. My experience: I often join language meetups where we are grouped into several tables to practice different la

What is my primary motivation for learning these 46 languages?

A lot of people asked how many languages I know. It is difficult for me to answer that question without knowing what it means to know the language. Everyone has a different standard of knowing a language. If I only know how to read in that language, does it mean I know the language? I have learned many languages and writing systems separately. No wonder there are languages I can speak and writing systems I can read. The following list will show you my motivation for learning them in one sentence each. I use the first 18 languages daily, either actively or passively. So, I arrange them in the sequence of fluency, I put the rest of the languages, more or less, in the sequence based on the time I learned them actively. Medan Hokkien: My native language, which I speak proudly. Indonesian: It is the official language of my country. English: I was partly English-educated in high school and fully English-educated at university. Chinese: It is a lingua franca for all Chinese-ethnic in the worl

Multilingual countries

In today's interconnected world, learning a new language can open doors to countless opportunities, from personal enrichment to professional advancement. One effective and engaging way to immerse yourself in a language is to explore media from countries with multiple official languages. Recommended countries for multilingual media Africa Equatorial Guinea: Spanish, French, Portuguese Kenya: English, Swahili Madagascar: Malagasy, French Nigeria: English, Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba Zimbabwe: English, Shona, Ndebele Asia Bangladesh: Bengali, English India: Hindi, English Israel: Hebrew, Arabic Singapore: English, Malay, Mandarin, Tamil Sri Lanka: Sinhala, Tamil Europe Belgium: Dutch, French, German Finland: Finnish, Swedish Malta: Maltese, English Montenegro: Montenegrin, Serbian, Bosnian, Croatian Switzerland: German, French, Italian, Romansh America Bolivia: Spanish, Aymara, Quechua Canada: English, French Paraguay: Guarani, Spanish Peru: Spanish, Aymara, Quechua Suriname: Dutch, Sranan To

How do you stay motivated when you encounter challenges in language learning?

I also lose motivation several times when I learn languages. After several days, I usually continue studying the language again. It is really important to maintain the motivation. Here are some strategies to stay motivated when learning a new language: Set achievable goals: Break down your learning into smaller, manageable steps. Celebrate your progress along the way to stay motivated. Find a language buddy: Practicing with a native speaker or someone at your level can make learning more fun and engaging. Immerse yourself in the language: Watch movies, listen to music, or read books in your target language. This will help you get used to the sounds and rhythm of the language. Don't be afraid to make mistakes: Mistakes are a natural part of the learning process. Don't let them discourage you. Reward yourself: Treat yourself to something you enjoy after reaching a goal. This will help you stay motivated and excited about learning. Join a language exchange or community: Connect wi

Polyglots' Advice

Here are some well-known polyglots and their top language-learning tips: Richard Simcott Languages: Speaks over 16 languages fluently. Advice: "Choose the learning resources that interest you the most. Consistency and enjoyment are key to maintaining motivation." Benny Lewis Languages: Known for learning languages quickly, speaks several including Spanish, French, and German. Advice: "Speak from day one. Don't wait until you feel 'ready'—start using the language immediately." Luca Lampariello Languages: Speaks 13 languages. Advice: "Translate texts back and forth between your native language and the target language to deepen understanding and retention." Olly Richards Languages: Speaks 8 languages.
