"Gabriel Wyner speaks seven languages fluently. He didn't learn them in school-who does? Rather
he mastered each one on his own drawing on free online resources quick daily practice
sessions and his knowledge of neuroscience and linguistics. In Fluent Forever Gabe shares his
foolproof method for learning any language. It starts by hacking the way your brain naturally
encodes information. You'll begin by learning how to hear new sounds and training your tongue
to produce them accurately. You'll connect spellings and sounds to images rather than rely on
translation exercises so that you start thinking in a new language. With the help of
spaced-repetition systems you'll build a foundation for your language in one week and learn
hundreds of words a month-with just a few minutes of practice each day. This revised edition
also shares fresh strategies that Gabe has refined over years of study. You'll learn how to:
Use your interests to curate vocabulary that you'll actually be excited to study Pick up the
subtleties of your target language by conversing with native speakers Fast-track fluency with
a new appendix devoted to conversation strategies with native speakers Compile the best
language-learning tool kit for your budget Harness the science of motivation and habit
building to turbocharge your progress Find the perfect level of difficultly with reading and
listening comprehension to stay engaged and avoid frustration"--
