ADVICE

Use Best Reference Language

  • Choose whichever known language helps you bridge to the new language best.
  • Use Spanish or English to reference Portuguese, depending on which aids comprehension more effectively.
INSIGHT

Think Directly In Target Language

  • The ultimate goal in language learning is to think directly in the target language without translating.
  • This transition happens gradually with immersive reading and listening experiences.
ADVICE

Use Unrelated Language Avoid Interference

  • To avoid unnatural language influence, use a less related language as a reference if you can control it.
  • This helps develop a more natural and precise target language skill.
