I just wanted to make a new video today in order to be able to share with you a

New language learning technique that I've been working on

And I'm just kind of experimenting with this. This is a one of my language notebooks and

I've never really done this before I've used language notebooks a lot in the past, but I'm kind of experimenting with a new style

Because I've seen a few different youtubers

You know kind of showed that what they do in their language notebooks, so

I started learning Romanian about a year ago

Got bored of it's not that I got bored. I just got too busy really

And now I'm going to Romania this summer, so I'm trying to get back into learning some

I know I'm not going to like become fluent in Romanian before the summer but

I don't know I feel like any time I go to a new country

I want to at least make some attempts to learn that language just

In order to be able to interact with the culture that much more and even if I just learned some very basic vocabulary

Very little bit of grammar some you know pre memorized phrases

I feel like I'll just get a lot more out of my experience while I'm there

So I'm pretty excited about that and I want to kind of get my butt back into gear and start

In the past I've used you know I've used a lot of very

Different styles of notebooks to try to learn and this is just another experiment you know

I don't know exactly how this is gonna go and I feel like I have not

perfectly yet, but I just want to share this with you guys and

Who knows maybe if you guys have done something similar you might be able to spit out some ideas

and we can bounce ideas off of each other and I might be able to refine my

Technique a little bit more with this, but my whole concept for this notebook

Was that I was not going to use any English words. I was only going to use picture because I want to be able to

When I went to look through this notebook

Not have to translate these words in my head

You know I I don't really know how this is gonna

Go is just I'm just experimenting with this so the first page

I had near first several pages is just vocabulary words, and so you can probably tell just by looking at this but

My first page is colors, and I only picked a few of the main colors. I didn't want to

you know bog my memory down with turquoise and salmon and you know and

Magenta and all this stuff, so I have you know your usual black green

Of course the word color because that's just as important as any of the actual colors

I'm trying to make the whole book kind of colorful to make it a little bit more

It'll help some of these words stick in my brain a little bit more than if they're just like written in

Obviously the color page had to be in color, but I tried to make the whole thing a little bit more colorful too. The next

Page that I have in here is picture of the human face with a few different words for

It's as long as you're able to understand. I'll probably do another

picture of human body too that can get like feet legs you know arms

Well, probably not torso. That's not really as important of a word.

I have a few pages in here about a house so outside of the house we got

The door window roof. I put a few different types of rooms in here kitchen bedroom bed

I should probably... now that I think about it, I should probably also try to put a few like

Predetermined phrases in here as well like where is the restroom. You know

I can't think of any other phrases up the top of my head, but where is the restroom would be a really useful one.

I really wanted to do this like I said I wanted to do it without using English words

So I didn't want to translate so what I did here for numbers was I put

One, and I did that one time and then you know for each consecutive number

I just made one more so that I would be able to tell and I only did one to five because

without using super complex numbers right?

I think it's better to keep things simple

Like if I really have to say 15 for whatever reason then I'll just say ten and five

But then so I have one through five down here then down here. I have ten

So I don't know we'll see how this works we'll see if this

actually, helps me remember those numbers anymore I

Have a few different adjectives in here. I'm still working on this notebook. So I'll probably add a few more

But we have big little we have a lot a few

You know I'll probably add good or bad or something like that but

couldn't really think of any way to draw that. So there is definitely one

Tree, grass, oh this is... so I'm... just like I said, I'm still working on this. This is a

Haven't like actually drawn gone through and drawn... I don't know if I'm gonna draw pictures for these yet or not

Some of them might be kind of hard to draw pictures of and I don't even remember

You know, I don't remember what most of these are right now

So I can't talk a whole lot about them, but... actually I don't know

I don't really know what I was going for here. Maybe I'll try to draw some pictures for each one of these and then

Use that to help learn the song. Either that or

I'll just I'll just listen to the song while looking at this page, and then think oh yeah, I remember that word

Yeah, I noticed that word. I noticed that word. I don't know. We'll see. Like I said this is an experiment

I don't know if it's necessarily gonna work great. On this next page, and I think this is my last one
