1A: Immersion 1A:浸入式
Immersion is the foundation of language acquisition. Through immersion, you expose yourself to each word, phrase, and grammar structure in many different situations until you can intuitively grasp their nuance. 沉浸是语言习得的基础。通过沉浸,您将在许多不同的情况下接触每个单词、短语和语法结构,直到您可以直观地掌握它们的细微差别。
The amount of time you spend immersing is the single most important factor in how fast you acquire your target language (TL). It's important to start immersing from day one so you can start racking up immersion hours and kick start the acquisition process. Even if you don't understand anything, your brain is hard at work decoding the language. 您花在沉浸中的时间是影响您获取目标语言 (TL) 的速度的最重要因素。从第一天开始沉浸是很重要的,这样你就可以开始积累沉浸时间并启动采集过程。即使你什么都不懂,你的大脑也在努力解码语言。
Tolerating Ambiguity 容忍歧义
New language learners often fall into the trap of not feeling "ready" for immersion. Immersing in content you don't understand feels uncomfortable. New learners try to avoid this discomfort by putting off immersion and focusing solely on active study. 新语言学习者经常陷入陷阱,感觉自己没有“准备好”沉浸其中。沉浸在你不理解的内容中会让人感到不舒服。新学习者试图通过推迟沉浸感并专注于积极学习来避免这种不适。
That approach does not work and never will. 这种做法行不通,也永远不会行得通。
It doesn't matter how much you prepare and study and learn, when you make first contact with real language, you will not understand it. 不管你准备了多少,学习了多少,学习了多少,当你第一次接触真正的语言时,你都不会理解它。
Instead of avoiding the discomfort of not understanding, we strongly recommend that you dive headfirst into the language and learn to embrace the ambiguity. The better you become at tolerating the discomfort, the more you will enjoy your immersion and the faster your brain will absorb the language. 我们强烈建议您一头扎进语言中,学会接受歧义,而不是避免不理解的不适。你越能忍受这种不适,你就越能享受沉浸感,你的大脑吸收语言的速度就越快。
Reducing Ambiguity 减少歧义
When you first get started, it can be difficult to build up a tolerance for ambiguity. If you find it too difficult, here are a few strategies you can use to make the experience more comfortable. 刚开始时,可能很难建立对歧义的容忍度。如果您觉得太难了,可以使用以下一些策略来使体验更加舒适。
Spoil the Plot 破坏剧情 One way to reduce ambiguity is to read the plot summary of the TV show or movie before watching. Another option is to rewatch a TV show or movie that you’ve already seen in your native language (NL). Both of these approaches allow you to follow the story without needing to understand the words. 减少歧义的一种方法是在观看前阅读电视节目或电影的情节摘要。另一种选择是重新观看您已经用母语 (NL) 看过的电影或电视节目。这两种方法都允许您无需理解单词即可了解故事。
Native Language Subtitles 母语字幕 We generally don’t recommend using NL subtitles when consuming content. You won’t learn much from it. 我们通常不建议在消费内容时使用 NL 字幕。你不会从中学到太多东西。
However, if you find yourself completely lost and struggling, then it’s OK to use NL subtitles to keep yourself engaged. 但是,如果您发现自己完全迷失和挣扎,那么可以使用 NL 字幕来保持自己的参与度。
As an exercise, try to watch as long as you can without subtitles before turning them on. Another option is to watch a piece of content without NL subtitles and then watch it again with them. 作为练习,在打开字幕之前,请尝试在没有字幕的情况下尽可能长时间地观看。另一种选择是观看一段没有 NL 字幕的内容,然后用它们再次观看。
By the time you reach Stage 2A, you should no longer consume content with NL subtitles or NL translations. 当您达到第 2A 阶段时,您不应再使用带有 NL 字幕或 NL 翻译的内容。
Immersion Endurance 浸入式耐久性
Immersing in a new language is exhausting. You will get tired very quickly. You may even get headaches as your brain accommodates the new language. 沉浸在一门新语言中是令人筋疲力尽的。你会很快感到疲倦。当你的大脑适应新语言时,你甚至可能会头痛。
Make sure to take frequent breaks and naps to recharge. Over time, your endurance will grow until you can immerse for multiple hours straight. 确保经常休息和小睡以充电。随着时间的流逝,您的耐力会不断增强,直到您可以连续浸泡数小时。
Finding Content 查找内容
Throughout your learning journey, you will spend thousands of hours immersing in your TL, so it's important to find content you enjoy. The more you enjoy the content, the more you'll want to immerse and the faster you'll learn. 在整个学习过程中,您将花费数千小时沉浸在 TL 中,因此找到您喜欢的内容非常重要。你越喜欢这些内容,你就越想沉浸其中,学习得越快。
To maximize your time spent with the language, convert as much of your media consumption as possible over to your TL. This includes TV shows, movies, YouTube, and blogs. You will need to explore what content is available for your TL and find what is most interesting and enjoyable for you. 为了最大限度地利用您的语言时间,请将尽可能多的媒体消费转换为您的 TL。这包括电视节目、电影、YouTube 和博客。您将需要探索哪些内容可用于您的 TL,并找到对您来说最有趣和最愉快的内容。
Make New Accounts 创建新帐户 One great way to explore TL content is to create a dedicated TL account on all your social media and video streaming services. By having a separate account where you only consume TL content, you can take advantage of the recommendation algorithm to find new and interesting content. We recommend creating TL accounts on YouTube, Netflix, Tiktok, and Twitter. 探索 TL 内容的一个好方法是在您的所有社交媒体和视频流服务上创建一个专用的 TL 帐户。通过拥有一个只使用 TL 内容的单独帐户,您可以利用推荐算法来查找新的和有趣的内容。我们建议您在 YouTube、Netflix、Tiktok 和 Twitter 上创建 TL 帐户。
To help seed your TL content recommendations, LangWeGo has collected lists of channels and content for each language across YouTube, Netflix, and other content sites. You can access these through our community. 为了帮助您播种 TL 内容推荐,LangWeGo 收集了 YouTube、Netflix 和其他内容网站上每种语言的频道和内容列表。您可以通过我们的社区访问这些内容。
Netflix Netflix 公司 Netflix is a great place to find TL content. Netflix offers different content in different countries. With the help of a VPN, you can trick Netflix into thinking you are in a different country and get access to all the content for that language. Netflix 是查找 TL 内容的好地方。Netflix 在不同国家/地区提供不同的内容。在 VPN 的帮助下,你可以欺骗 Netflix,让他们认为你在另一个国家,并获得该语言的所有内容。
We recommend using the Unofficial Netflix Online Global Search DB. This makes it easy to search for and find Netflix content in your TL and tells you which country you need to set your VPN to in order to watch. 我们建议使用非官方的 Netflix 在线全球搜索数据库。这样可以轻松地在 TL 中搜索和查找 Netflix 内容,并告诉您需要将 VPN 设置为哪个国家/地区才能观看。
You can find a detailed guide for setting up a TL Netflix account here. 您可以在此处找到设置 TL Netflix 帐户的详细指南。
TL Streaming Services TL 流媒体服务 Netflix and YouTube are great places to find content in your TL. However, don’t just limit yourself to the sites you already know. Every country has different streaming services. Search Google for the streaming sites most used by natives of your TL. Netflix 和 YouTube 是在 TL 中查找内容的好地方。但是,不要只局限于您已经知道的网站。每个国家都有不同的流媒体服务。在 Google 上搜索 TL 本地人最常使用的流媒体网站。

Passive Listening Content
被动收听内容 As explained in Stage 0: Activities Explained, passive listening is a great way to increase your immersion time when you're on the go. 正如第 0 阶段:活动解释中所述,被动聆听是在旅途中增加沉浸时间的好方法。
Podcasts and audiobooks are the most straightforward way to start passive listening, but they will be very difficult for new learners. The more difficult the content, the harder it will be to stay engaged. You can make your passive listening more engaging and comprehensible by re-listening to the audio from TV shows or YouTube videos that you've already actively watched. 播客和有声读物是开始被动收听的最直接方式,但对于新学习者来说,它们将非常困难。内容越难,就越难保持参与。您可以通过重新收听您已经主动观看的电视节目或 YouTube 视频中的音频来使您的被动聆听更具吸引力和可理解性。
To make passive listening a habit in your life, it's important to make it easy and effortless. The easiest way to start passive listening is to turn on Netflix or YouTube on your phone and just listen. If you are more technically skilled, you can download the audio and put it on your phone or a separate digital audio player. 为了让被动倾听成为你生活中的习惯,让它变得简单和轻松是很重要的。开始被动收听的最简单方法是在手机上打开 Netflix 或 YouTube 并收听。如果您的技术技能更高,您可以下载音频并将其放在手机或单独的数字音频播放器上。
