Efficient (Fast + Low Effort) Language Learning Strategy:
- Get a list of the most common 1,000 words in your target language with translations into your own language (plenty of free lists online).
- Record yourself (or use text-to-speech) reading each pair: foreign word + translation, with a pause between entries.
- Use a Video Editing Software to split the recording so each word + translation pair is its own audio file.
- Delete mistakes or broken clips.
- Duplicate each audio file 50x.
- Merge them into one timeline so that each word + translation pair is repeated 50 times in a row before moving to the next pair.
- Adjust playback speed if needed.
- Play it in the background during daily routine tasks or while sleeping until you’ve mastered the list.
Why this works:
- Hearing a word + translation 50 times in a row — and then going through the whole track repeatedly across sessions — makes memorization inevitable.
- The brain can’t ignore extreme repetition; it burns the pair into memory automatically.
