If I were starting over and didn't know a word of Chinese, here's exactly what I would do to become fluent. 💬🌟
1️⃣ First, I would accept the fact that I have to learn characters. Ignoring them may create a ceiling to your progress. Embrace the challenge and see characters as the building blocks of the language.
2️⃣ I would begin with survival Chinese like "hello" and "goodbye," gradually expanding to essential phrases for everyday situations.
3️⃣ My learning approach would be bottom-up, starting from syllables, moving to character components, and then building up to characters, words, sentences, and paragraphs. Understanding the structure of the language will solidify my foundation.
4️⃣ I would deeply understand the "valley of disappointment." Learning a new skill may not progress linearly, but recognizing that growth will be exponential later on can help me stay motivated during challenging periods.
For instance, when learning characters, it might feel like pushing a rock uphill, but once enough characters are learned, recognition of native Chinese content will skyrocket, propelling my progress forward.
Embrace the challenges and triumphs of learning Chinese, knowing that each step you take brings you closer to fluency and a deeper connection with the language and culture. 加油! (Jiā yóu! - Keep going!) 🎉🇨🇳
