Learning to carry a conversation is vital to mastery of any language.

Even beginners can quickly learn conversational language.

Well enough to carry on real conversations with native speakers.

Of course, beginners won't be able to carry a conversation the same way they could in their native language.

But just knowing a few tips, like which questions to ask to keep the conversation going, are all you need to speak and interact with real native speakers before we get too specific suggestions.

Let's first take a closer look at how having real conversations in your target language is so vital to your mastery of the language.

Communicating with other people is the very point of language, and conversation comes easily in our native tongue for beginners or anyone learning a new language.

When you know what to say to keep the conversation going, communication becomes much easier and you make a better impression on your listener.

Nothing will help you learn to speak a language faster and truly master the language than having real conversations with native speakers.

Conversations quickly expose you to slang cultural expressions and vocabulary that force you to absorb and assimilate information faster than any educational setting.

And that's a great thing.

But how can you possibly have real conversations with real people if you're just starting out?

Here are three proven methods that even beginners can quickly use to learn conversational language to make a great impression and avoid awkward silences.

First, ask questions to keep the conversation going.

Second, learn core vocabulary terms as quickly as possible.

I'll see you next time.

My most people don't like to hear this, but consistent hard work is one of the biggest factors in your language.

Learning success.

The course or method you choose makes a difference to, but at the end of the day, you ride or die by the work you put in the quantity of time spent studying language doesn't necessarily determine the quality of your study.

Spending three hours a day Watching movies doesn't help you learn much if you're not actively engaging with the language in this video, we'll talk about three ways to actively engage your mind while studying a new language.

Number one.

Think of your brain as a muscle.

You're probably familiar with the phrase feel the burn or maybe no pain, no gain.

If you've been to your local gym recently, there's a chance you might have heard one of these phrases or seen them plastered on a wall.

There's an idea in the world of sports and workouts that the discomfort you feel when running, pumping iron or doing some other physical activity is what brings results during a healthy workout.

The muscles of the body are effective at a microscopic level.

Discomfort, you feel, is your muscles being pushed to their limits.

It's the limit pushing that strengthens your muscles so that over time your performance increases in the context of language learning.

It's helpful to think of your brain is a muscle, just as we need to push our physical limits when exercising.

We also need to push our mental limits when learning a foreign language how we ever studied or practiced your target language in a way that left you tired or even exhausted.

If so, you've experienced what it's like to push your brain out of its linguistic comfort zone number to practice.

Active listening.

One of the easiest ways to push your language skills is to practice active listening.

Active listening is when you listen to someone speaking your target language, and you do your best to understand what you hear.

The best way to accomplish this is by using audio that you can't completely understand on the first listen, preferably you want to use audio that has subtitles or transcripts for you to double check your understanding After you listen to it, you can use movie's YouTube clips or even our language program, which has very useful transcripts for each lesson during a practice session.

You should listen to the audio several times the first time around.

It's okay if little to no words stick out to you.

Simply make a mental note of any words or sounds you'll recognise.

The second time you listen.

You're likely to recognize a little more than you did the previous time.

Expect similar results with your third or even fourth time listening after you've hit the ceiling of words you can decipher.

Go ahead and look at the language.

Subtitles or transcripts.

Listen to the audio again, reading along with the text.

Odds are that you will see words in the text you no, but didn't hear correctly.

You're also likely to encounter words that are new to you completely.

As you play back the audio and read along.

Try to guess what these words mean from the context of the words around them.

After you've read along a couple times, feel free to look up the remaining unfamiliar words in the dictionary or translator up.

This active listening exercise routine is a great way to increase your listening and comprehension skills while picking up some new vocabulary along the way.

It also allows you to learn new words in context, which itself is a powerful method to healthy.

Retain what you study.

Number three Practicing with native speakers practicing with native speakers is the epitome of pushing your language skills.

Using what you know to communicate in real time is where the rubber really needs the road.

Try to connect with a native speaker on a weekly basis.
