8 分钟we all have moments in our language learning even someone who's as enthusiastic about language learning
as i am we have moments when we're not motivated the enthusiasm just isn't there so what do we do or at least what do i do the first thing i do is Not worry about it.
There will be something that's going to trigger my enthusiasm, my interest again.
So I just wait for it.
So, you know, I might read a book in English.
Prior to my trip to Scotland and Ireland,
I was listening to an audiobook written by this rather pretentious Scotsman,
but quite interesting about how the Scots created the modern world.
A little bit of a...
Overstatement, and yet it's interesting because it talks about the history of Scotland,
the Scottish Enlightenment, some reference to Ireland.
And of course, my wife and I were visiting there.
I did nothing in Persian or any other language.
I'm enjoying, it's refreshing to get into another field of activity and to read.
I'm now reading other books in English.
I'm also reading a book in French on the French Revolution.
So I'm doing other things rather than focusing on... you know,
acquiring more words or more comfort in the languages that I have been deliberately trying to learn.
Something will come along and trigger you.
I'll give you an example.
