WHEN IS IT TOO LATE TO STUDY LANGUAGES 

There is a riddle at the end of this video! Did you guess what the answer is?

I started learning English at the age 50 , and at the age 54 I started learning Spanish . Meanwhile I continuously improve my professional programming skills. It's never late for studying .

I started to learn English at 32 and in 2 years got a job abroad and moved there with my family :)

It’s never too late!

I am American. I began learning Russian at age 20 in 1985. It was an intensive program. 8-hours a day for 1.5 years essentially. Worked with the language for 2.5 years, then went to University to get a degree in Russian (BA+MA). At that point I moved to France to marry, live and work, and had to learn French. That was in 1992. It is now 2019 and after those 26 years, I can say that I command the language pretty well, and I still have a bit (cringe) of an accent. Well, it's a heavy accent, actually. But I speak fluently. My Russian fluency is terrible now. Hard to say if it was really any good. But now, I'm back to studying Russian. I am amazed at how much is still floating around in my brain. Love your channel, Marina, in Russian particularly and am amazed by your fluency in English. Impressive.

I'm 35, learning German for over a year, still studying French... So... It's never too late. Even when you are 60 or 70+... Good luck everyone! ❤

It´s never too late amd you´re never too old to learn a new language , I´m 31 it's just the beginning!!! I started to learn foreing languages when I was 29, I should have started before, but right now I do not wanna stop. Greetings from Brazil!!!!

I agree with you! I'm 41 and I've started learning English after 20 years break. It's getting better and better all the time. I feel that my mind is fresh and learns fast. I think it's all because I love to learn new abilities- I have a lot of fun with it. You're doing great job for everyone who wants to learn English. Keep going!

I'm 15 years old, I started to learn English at the age 4 or 5, but, all these past years, I'd never focus on English, because i learned it at school, but, I didn't practice at home, never. That's why currently I have some problems with grammar and spelling, but now I'm studying hard. Now i understand, that learn a new language is very beautiful, beneficial and important, so now, I'm practicing more my English :)

Well, I'm 19 years old and I started learning English barely 7 months ago, but I think I'm doing it very well. And hey, the secret is never give up, just find your way to have fun while you learn. By the way, if you want to learn something perfectly, you also need to know when it's time for a break.

I'm 25 and i was thinking it's too late now to achieve better grip over language. Thank you so much for making these video. This inspires all of us :)

Thank you very much, Marina. I'm 22 years old. I was learning English one year ago. Sometimes, l feel can't get the English skills. But I do it again and again. It is way more struggle for me and I am doing a dedicated and pleasant way to learn. It ages not too late for any skills to learn. I heard 60 years old English learners learn English skills.

WHEN IS IT TOO LATE TO STUDY? NEVER!!!

Hi, I am 32 already..I am going to to pursue my PhD and want to learn a new language and i am using your blog to improve my English and warming up for another language.. Doubt is only in ours mind people.. Let's do it..before we die thinking. "#Support" "#Encouragement"

I am 36 years old and I'm still learning English and trying to find the way to learn faster and practice my brain to keep learning ,in the same time I am studying in the college.

I'm 16 years old I start learning English at the age of 9 all love from iraq😘🇮🇶🇮🇶

Hello from France ! It's true, It's never too late to learn, plus, I love learning new things. But for the riddle... I have to think about it. Thank you Marina.

It’s never to late. I’m 48. I started casual Korean classes as a hobby a few years ago, I am ahead of the teens!

A lot of people think that you have to live abroad in order to speak English fluently. But Even though without living abroad we can learning English.

Being from non English speaking country i m learning every single thing from you :) so helpful your videos and you are so adorable Marina :))

Really, l loves your smile....Everyday i'm trying to learning English by watching youtube videos and etc. But i can't speck in English....however i understand English, so i think one day i will be a good English Speaker. Thanks

Hey Marina, thank you for this lovely and motivational video. I'm 34 years old and there are still many things I need to learn including boosting my English confidence 😉

I've been studying English since two years when i was 14 and i'm 16 it's the best thing i have done in my whole life, thank you for helping us, best lady on the land ❤

Well, I started learning English at school at age of 8, then a year after, when I was 9 I started learning it deeply. So now I’m 12 , and I’m on the level B2, soon I’m gonna be on B2+ , and at about when I’m in 8 grade, I will know English as a native speaker! Still cannot believe it. I thought it’s gonna take much more time. Also your channel is so useful. I enjoy watching your videos, and by the way I love your temp of speech cause even if people say you’re talking too fast, nope you’re not) it’s great! We’ll get used to it. So don’t speed down, keep moving)love you)🧡🦊

I am 25 and I keep on studying hard... I hope I'll get there someday...

Marina!! Omg, thank you so much!! This was such an amazing video! I had such a great lesson from you about how our brains work! It made me think about how our neurons gather messages and it’s really interesting! I also loved hearing about your Russian relative! Honestly, this video has arrived at a perfect time. I’m about to take my second semester of Japanese soon this week. It’s been a while since I’ve taken Japanese and am a bit nervous about it. But this video has helped motivate me that languages will always be there to refresh our brains and intelligence. Thank you so much Marina because you are a LIFE SAVER!!! 💖💖💖☺️☺️

You're right, If you want learning something age doesn't matter.

Hi Marina! I'm your new subscribers from Philippines🇵🇭. I can't stop myself to give you a comment😉I'm so greatful that I found you here uploading such a very helpful blogs.😇good job👍👏

This video is all I needed to watch today! I'm 33 and right now I'm applying to do my masters abroad. Some people say (well actually they just think and judge but don't say) it's too late but I guess that it is just because I'm trying to do what they were never brave enough to try. Thank you so much for the video, it is such a good way to start a day!!!

Happy new year P.Y.T, pretty young thing is a Michael´s song. I´m 44 years old live in Brasil and learn english by self study my level is intermediate basic. I like american tv shows, movies, books and of course Linguamarina´s videos boost my learn. I don´t know grammar very well but last year I read my first book in english L.A Reid´s Sing To Me a very interesant biography with 80% understood.

i have been 22 years old for one day and i wanna say that i really love your inspiring videos, your positive thinking. hope u can publish more interesting videos like this for us

I think that a big problem in the society is that people is usually taught that studying Is just for getting a job or so, but we often don't realise we can enjoy learning many things, and we can do it just for these reason, because we enjoy it.

Hi Marina! First of all, congratulations for the 1M followers on the channel and also for the other achievements so far. You has been brilliant on your videos. Just to share with you and other people around the world that I'm in the age of 40 and still studying. I agree with you a 100% that language is a continuous process and helps our brain to keep active. Thanks for your support, keep up the great work and hopefully this year I'll be in US to take a Linguatrip course. Thanks, Salomao, from Brazil.

Wow, you're at a million subscribers! Congratulations! I just started learning my first second language, Korean, this summer and I'm 23. Your encouragement means a lot! I definitely feel behind a lot of other people and learning languages does not come naturally to me, so I have to remind myself every time that it's okay to not be good. It's okay to be a beginner and to fail miserably because I will still grow and learn in time!

Marina, I am from China and also 28 yrs old. I am still studying and looking for ways to improve my English. Ur videos encouraged me a lot, love u. It is never too late to study and learn new things.

That was truly inspiring! I am on the same path living in Turkey studying Turkish. I definitely hear my accent when I talk, but I embrace it 🙂 I think our accent is a huge part of who we are.

I’m 15 (an teenager, From Brazil) And I’m fluent in english, people just can’t believe in it, they say i’m lying and then I show them the proof and then they get rlly surprised, so there’s no such thing as "It’s too late" if you wanna learn something new then learn it, there’s nothing stoppin’ you! 👍😎

Passionate lady you inspired me alot to get my english speaking skill i do supporting you i need you more videos and motivation to speak more better confidentially hoping more better from you

How cool I found your RU-vid channel on your birthday! Happy Birthday!

Hi Morina!!! Thanks for everything. OMG billion subscribers you are one of the happiest girl ever

About the riddle, I think it is playing on the words like when we cut everything in half it will remain nothing.

I'm reem from Syria, I'm working on my English language, I love your Chanel and your Instagram account they are very useful for me to improve my English language This is the first comment for me. Even in arabic I don't comment a lot cause I feel a little shy Hope that this Will help me get out of my shell and feel more confident

Really good video! Especially the point about feeling like the world owes us something!

Marina ' you made my day ! .That's true , It's never too late . I'm 16 years old and I started learning English at the age 15 and I like this language very much . you' re a great person . I watch your videos and I learning important information from you .I love you so much !♥

8. On its side it is the symbol for infinity (everything). Cut in half it is 2 zero's (nothing).

You are looking Ultra Cute in White.💗

Your accent is very clear to me , I could understand all the words you said despite of some words that still very strange for me.

I am american born (north) and I am 27 and I recently picked my college to go to for communications. I am studying to be bilingual in English and Spanish. I want to help others and learning another language helps me HELP MORE PEOPLE! YAY!!!

I'm 35 and just started learning.

I'm a computer proffesor but my dream career is English Language Teaching so i decided to work on it and start this amazing challenge. If you want to be happy follow your heart and have a porpose in life.

Well, I'll turn 41 next month. And I've been studying English yet (I've been studying English since 2016)...and, I don't intend stopping... studying English fills my time and it keeps me busy...and, I really feel well studying English...anyway... Another great video Marina! Bye!!!!

The riddle. Is it 8? Turn it over and it's infinity. Cut it in half and it's 0.

Thanks for helping us with your videos... You're so kind!

It is never too late to learn a different language. You start to see things from different angles and start to understand a different culture, and connect with a whole different group of people speaking another language! Love this video!

And thanks for the motivational thought. It convinces my brain to gear up!!!! Learning can literally bring joy that knows no bounds.

You are growing more and more beauty. Its very good work. ❤️❤️👌👌

Wow Marina u re the real example of the successful and the hard-working woman 😍😍i really admire ur way of speaking and pronunciation u are just amazing a very cool lady and a great English teacher actually i learned a lots of things from u.. i've been subscribing to ur channel for a long time and i see the improvement and the progress of it's content which is highly motivated😀 thank u so much for that 🙏 concerning the riddle tbh i couldn't solve it lol

Thank you Marina for your kind, encouragi words to learn English. As you said Marina our age or whatever difficulty we had, it is not an interruption to learn English. I'm suffering from nervous breakdown known as motor neurone disease. Doctors said not to study, but I love studying English, because English is very easy to study and remember, especially because of your best teaching Marina

Omg you really inspire me...🤗🤗😂😂 I've been learning english for about 9 years but actually i'm still not good enough. But i'm trying so hard. I even try to learn new language besides english, i'm just trying to developing myself. I wish i can speak more than 3 languages. And yeah i'm 24 yrs old.

The question how learning is related to age is very interesting. I am 45 years old now and think that not learning would be like ceasing to exist, so I can't stop although it sometimes feels it has become harder. Learning languages is a lifestyle too. Challenging but wonderful! I know many have already said you are pretty in the comments below. Let me just add that I never saw you look more beautiful than you do in this video. Keep your enthusiasm alight! 🔥😄👏

Great video as always, thanks for good work :)

Very good advice! Is never too late to start studying something!

Im 25 years old and still improve my english

Love you linguamarina, you are the best!! Greetings from Bolivia🇧🇴🇧🇴🇧🇴

It's (8) When turning on side ♾️ and when cutting in half 0⃣0⃣

I'm learning English from my childhood and my mother tongue [Tamil] from the age 12.

Hi marina i'm 25 years Your words motívateme although i'm having a bad time emotionally I still studying this beautiful language... Thanks to your vídeos i'm learning the language in a short time. its never too late!!!!

Heyy Marina,I'm at the of 24 just like your starting point.I plan to get master degree scholarship and now I'm learing academic English for IELTS.Thank you for sharing your story and it's really inspiring me.

I use English a lot in my work. but rarely say it in daily conversation. I've been watching a lot of RU-vid videos in my spare time. Anyway, don't give up :)

Marina....listening to your english its hard to say that you are a non native speaker..great work...keep going....

The way you just creating video's is just incredible so it's cool to study,and i believe in this. Thank you for your inspirational video...everything is possible when we train our mind

I still study on your youtube chanel. I stoped study about 10 years ago and I think my English so bad. But now I try one more time. I'm from Cambodia. Thanks

Wow, I needed this so bad. I was born in Israel to African parents. Lived there till I was 9 then relocated back to the motherland. Back in Israel I was obviously very fluent in Hebrew. Now I'm 24 and I just started to learn Hebrew all over again. It's a struggle but I'm proud about making headsway.

Riddle answer: the number 8? It can be the symbol of infinity ♾️ turned on its side and cam become two zeros when cut in half oo.

Your right about brain cells dying, but due to neural plasticity we can still increase the neuro connections as we age.

I started when I was 29... now after 3 years I can say never is late to learn a new language. It's not easy but if you hard work you'll get it. Don't give friends

iam 25 and i speak 4 languages and one diploma and English degree and i want learn more ,lately i have noticed that my memory got better and i start to learn better and remember more and my brain can understand easily i know society how press you to settle and have a family but likely i have a family who support me and now i want to start a youtube channel and i have many dreams that i want achieve

Well..this is amazing. I am 40 years now, I studied English when I was a teenager... last year I decided to change my entire life and start my process to study in USA. At this moment I am doing an MBA at the University of South Florida. I am the oldest person in all my classes, the only woman with a 9-year kid and husband, but I realize that is never late to learn something...

I love the word ''Your brain can grow up''. If I face the learning English difficulties, I want to continue studying while keeping this word in my mind.

You are really looking different and unique.

Superb one.. Every day comes with new stories new beginning to learn and advance further. in my case learning has become my Lifestyle to acquire new things in my life as i spent 1-2 hrs to improvise myself one step forward.

Today’s topic was awesome. Keep up the lit content and keep uploading ❤️

Not just i learn english from u I learn many thing such as this beautiful video .. Thank u so mutch ♥️💚

Hi am an Ethiopian but your channel is very use full for thinks

I’m writing this comment just to practice my English. Thank you Marina, I’m very sad (oh very very again but Idk how to say another way maybe someone will help me?). So I’m sad that I find out your English Channel just now, but I promise to try to watch all of your vids. Also I wanted to comment in Russian but it’s too hard for me to change languages. So bye luv u

you are absolutely correct i have got it . i was totally hang over before suddenly i have watched your video i am back in position then i started again study age is not matter. thankuy marina

Marina, I do agree with you. I mean, age doesn’t matter when people start learning something new. I actually began language acquisition training of English at the age of early 40s. And three years since then, I have come to have a good command of it. Most of my native friends regard me as an advanced speaker of English. We can learn anything whenever we want. I do believe so.

I am from... I watch your videos lingua and I am very motivated by your fantastic videos.. Thank for educating the world with your knowledge... 😍

the answer to that riddle is 8, cuz if you turn it to the side it becomes an infinity and if you cut it in half its a zero

I'm anxiously waiting for your Live Streams. You should've not stopped it. Please start it again. Bcoz there is nothing better to communicate than to go live.

very comfortable speech and accent)

Every day I watch your video !! It really helps me about my pronunciation !!

you are really an inspiration for me Marina ! Love from France

Could you make a video about how you mastered your pronunciation? Not just the basic stuff like you have to watch music in English, you've got to read books in English, talk to yourself in English and so on. Could you share your deepest tips for us please, I know that there's something different from the basic stuff, do you exercise your tongue? do you have an exercise to relax your mouth? or do you have a book or someone that tells you where to put your tongue or something? because your pronunciation is insane I would like to have that pronunciation haha anyway you are my Inspiration, sometimes, people say you will not be able to speak like a native speaker if you learn after 12 years old because your vocal cords stop changing at that age and stuff like that and then I show them your videos and they say Oh My God she has an amazing accent and pronunciation haha. Have a nice day

The number eight. Turned to the side is the infinite symbol. Cuted to the half is the number zero.

Thanks marina, at first i thouhgt i was late learning english, but age is just a number, so we must have a spirit to study english

My dad knows two languages and now he starts his journey to learn English. He is 54 💚

My answer is LUCK! I really don't look any comments below :) Marina you have a great accent and I listen you with a pleasure. Enjoy your day and keep creating useful and positive videos!

How could have such beautiful English teacher in the world

First time I watch one of your videos, this year i want to improve so much my listening and speaking skills, i think your videos will help me. Thanks!!
