Interesting! I like this definition as many people don't feel legitimate calling themself a polyglot although they do have knowledge of several languages and an understanding of their cultural context
A polyglot is someone with a decent level of knowledge of more than two languages. This may mean good comprehension, but a limited ability to speak without a sustained opportunity to do so. ow.ly/B23750H6IFx

Good comprehension and a large passive vocabulary are essential to meaningful conversation. If you understand well you can speak more, albeit with mistakes, and eventually your language skills improve. ow.ly/xzyS50H3Aar

Most people underestimate how long it takes to learn a new language. That's why it's so important to enjoy the process so you don't stop. youtu.be/dWpQLt5b_ws

In praise of speaking languages less than perfectly! Novak Djokovic spoke comfortably, naturally, in French in front of thousands at Roland-Garros, w/ his Serbian accent & mistakes in gender etc. Fans loved it & so did I. Rafa does the same. Languages are for communicating.

How to motivate school learners to put in the time needed to learn a language. That is the alpha and omega of language instruction. Nothing else matters.

Language learning is a fuzzy logic process. It's not a matter of learning the basics and building on that. A study plan needs to be more about ensuring you stay motivated and engaged with the language, rather than a specific plan on the use of time. ow.ly/YfQO50E7PmA
