10 Study Tips to Learn Languages



It’s not easy to learn a new language, but there are many ways in which you can trick your brain so that you can learn faster without having to make as much of an effort. Neuroscientists have found some brain hacks with which you can learn a language pretty fast, and you’ll remember what you studied longer. Check out some of these tricks — with ten study tips to learn languages.
Use a few brain hacks when learning a new language.

Drumming

Babies don’t react to people speaking a foreign language, but turn their heads toward people speaking their native language. That is why speech therapists often make use of drumming to help children learn new words, and distinguish the rhythm of speech. Always use drumming to learn a new language.
When you study, listen to a pretty low beat in the backdrop to connect the parts of your brain that process rhythm. While learning to speak complicated words, drum the loud and soft emphasis to help rewire one’s brain to the fresh accent. It is not necessary to use an actual drum — just tap or pat your leg, clapping your hands, or tap your pen on a table. Vary the drumming method you use to find out which method is best for you. Any variation goes into your brain in a different way.

Smell  

When it’s about practicing your language skills or studying a language , you can light incense or scented candle, or spray some perfume. The fragrance will wake up the smells-processing parts of your brain. This will eventually cause a bigger rush of brain power to its memory-storing parts. It means you will most probably retain that information pretty easily.

Eat and learn 

Try eating to learn more when you study. It works pretty well when you learn while smelling. It is because the parts of your brain that process smell and taste are quite closely associated. Do you reward focused parts when you eat while studying? It is because these are associated with calories and yummy tastes.
Something happens when you eat something when studying new words — it’s why you remember pieces of conversations when you eat out. Want to do even better? Try to quiz yourself on vocabulary, and after that, you can reward yourself with a small snack. Your snack can be something salty or sweet.

Talk to yourself 

According to Science, listening to your own voice persuades a lot different parts of one’s brain into focusing on the words. Record yourself while you read the words out loud. You just need to play that recording repeatedly. Continue doing this for a few days, several times a day. You will find out that you have learned the new words — and they will stay in your memory for longer.

Keep repeating 

Use your subconscious to learn a language. While you do other things, a part of your brain will still listen and learn. So play a recording of language in the background. Use language learning software for...
