-I am great thank you.  -Today I'd like to ask you some questions

yeah I'm sure that they are interesting not only for me but for a lot of people who

and I know that you can speak ten languages

-Do you have some special ability for this or you do something particular

I would like to to say that ever when people tell me that they have a huge

learning so many languages I i think it's not necessarily true I think that

how to our learn languages I have learned

and that makes a huge difference because a lot of people make the

they start learning a languagein the wrong way and then they give up I I don't give up because I've just found a

for me but I found out that it worked well

think basically I figured out how to learn a language

in a certain way in a effective way,  to answer your question

there is a secret the secret is to understand how to

learn languages, once you know how to do that you can learn any language in the

And  I know that you know  all the languages

on your own and do you use a traditional method

or have you developed one on your own? -it depends on.. you know

what you mean by traditional method but my method surely is not traditional in

the sense I do things my own way and  I have

this method that I call the "Luca's method"

I didn't invent it but I just found it to be the optimal solution

the answer is yes I have my own method to learn languages

and the good thing is that  you know where you just apply a method

you're the only person who apply it and it works you might think that

it just applies to me just works for me but it's our found out that

it works for quite a few languages,so I think that

I think that their most popular question is now how to learn languages

is  extremely important when you try to learn a language

and these are the two main problems for every language learner

I think that the problem in general is that people tend to think that they

solution so they come up with lists of words or sentences

I learn words indirectly it means that I figured out that our brain works

a certain  kind of techinque which is a bidirectional

I use my own native language to learn other

I think that your own native language is extremely important

and you should know how to use this translation technique especially at the

the network of the language but then words are going to fall into it

automatically so you start learning words automatically you build your net

it is going to be easier and easier to learn words

is not learning words by heart this is what

I  never did and I would never do and I think

everybody should avoid learning words by heart beacuse languages

and words..you know, words come with emotions

What are the first steps you  take when you start learning a

the most important phase in my experience that beginning because you

in front of a huge mountain and you have to know how to climb it

so the first thing is I tell myself are you can start

quite slowly because the path is very long

and I use this a by directional technique so I translate..I take

you know I use my own native tongue to figure out the structure of the

of the foreign language that I am learning

it is called the bidirectional technique now I cannot delve into the details of how

this works but I can assure you that it works quite well

if you know how to do it because it's also important to know

it is very important to stress the fact that

what material you choose does matter but what really makes a difference is HOW you use languge learnig material

I use it in a certain way in order to absorb right the information

bilingual translation and then I move on to other things

and what are the 3 most important things in a language?

As I said beofre attitude is very important,  meaning that

the way your approach anything in life it is not just about

language learning a positive attitude is extremely

important for example once you have learned the basics of a language
