What is the best way to learn a new language? Here is a list of 7 steps for you to follow and master the language of your choice!
Learning a new language can be fun, but mastering syntax and hesitancy can be hard. Here is a list of the 7 steps: best way to learn a new language!
First things first, when you choose the language you want to learn, understand whether the language follows the SOV (Subject-Object-verb) order like most Indian languages or the SVO (Subject-verb-object) order like English.
Once you have this basic understanding of the language family, structure and pattern of syntax, you should be able to make short sentences even with a limited vocabulary.
Second important thing to keep in mind, memorizing basic greetings like “Good morning” and “How are you” without asking questions about the grammar structure of the sentence. Simply memorize, it will help in the long run!
The 10 minutes can be spent on memorizing vocabulary, recording your voice in the language and listening to yourself speak in the language or reading something from whatever book you are using.
Watch the same thing twice or thrice with subtitles – then again without subtitles – voilà! You can make out bits and pieces of full sentences here and there.
Any good teacher will be happy to help a sincere student — especially if the student tries to frame the doubt in the foreign language.
In other words, saying things like, “this language is tough”, “I cannot speak the language, although I have been learning for a month now”, “Can you make me pass” are all things you could avoid telling your teacher.
All languages are tough. You would need a year to gain even basic proficiency in a foreign language. Give yourself time and set small, achievable goals.
For e.g. confidence in basic greetings at the end of week 1. Confidence in self introduction at the end of week 2 and so on.
Once you have the above points in place, there is nothing that can stop you from getting proficient at any language —be it Greek or Latin.

Who are these people who decide how a married woman should pose? Women do have a life and career outside their marriages!
Last week, a picture kept popping up on my FB feed, of a man and a woman standing close. I didn’t pay much attention, they looked like any other celebrity couple.
It was when I accidentally saw a derogatory term about the woman as the title of a post, that I read.
The woman in the pic was Dhanashree Verma, a Youtuber, choreographer, Jhalak Dikhla Ja participant and wife of cricketer Yuzvendra Chahal. The man was another choreographer, Pratik Utekar.
The pursuit of true happiness and owning your true identity - things that probably are most important for humans. Laapataa Ladies has it all.
This well written satire goes as deep inside as it seems on the surface. While uncovering the deep-rooted traditions and superstitions of traditional India on the face of it, this story of lost women is actually also a story of finding oneself. Not only for the “lost ladies” but for a lot of other characters of the movie.
Be it by getting reminded of the childhood self, or of the dreams seen as a child or via learning & unlearning, or even questioning some of the self-beliefs when shown the mirror, or tapping on the hidden goodness, each major character of the film ends up finding self.
Well what can be a bigger accomplishment than this. A very powerful and intelligently written story showing the world that the dark and the bright stays together, it co exists.
