Danas ti dajem lekciju o tome kako mi lenji ljudi učimo jezike.

Ako ti gramatička objašnjenja i definicije skoro nikad nisu jasni...

Ako ti je dosadno da učiš reči napamet...

Ako ne voliš i strah te je od testova...

A ipak želiš da naučiš i znaš engleski!

U ovom tekstu ćeš pronaći odgovore i 3 načina kako da to radiš u svom fazonu, bez moranja i vežbanja koja su tebi dosadna. A evo i video verzije za slušanje :).

"I'm a lazy language learner. I don't do tests. I don't do flashcards. I don't go to class. I study on my own when I feel like it.

And I think this lazy approach keeps me motivated. Because whatever theoretically can be said about the advantages of retrieval (the act of getting back something you have lost or left somewhere), practice, and testing, and these other things... If it demotivates me, then it's actually counterproductive.

Similarly, let's say with trying to learn the basis of grammar upfront - if I find that a demotivating thing to do, even if it can be proven that it helps me master the grammar, which I don't believe to be the case, if it demotivates me, then it's a bad thing to do."

So, what are his 3 ways of lazy learning? Can you find them in the text? He mentions some things that he is and isn't doing and how he's doing them... Can you notice them in the text?

p.s. try to find them on your own first.

And now the task :)

Task #4: Answer the questions with true or false.

1. Study on your own - is this a lazy learning suggestion? yes or no
2. Study when you feel like it - is this a lazy learning suggestion? yes or no
3. Don't do things that demotivate you - is this a lazy learning suggestion? yes or no

Elaborate on your answers what do you think - why yes or why not and send your answers to me.

Bonus task for the laziest amongst you :):

Can you find the next words in the text:

1 linking word (veznik) -

1 fixed phrase that means "I don't think that's true" -

1 synonym for I consider, I think, I believe -

Obavezno mi pošalji odgovore, be brave, I know you can :) I vidimo se sutra!
