In questo episodio parlo brevemente della tendenza umana di chiedersi il perché delle cose, 
nello studio delle lingue non credo che questo sia di grande aiuto, sapere perché in giapponese il verbo segue il complemento oggetto invece di anticiparlo, non necessariamente migliora le nostre abilità linguistiche in giapponese, ciò che è importante invece è NOTARE e sapere che il verbo va a fine frase e non il perché questo accada.

The Habits of Highly Effective English Communicators

What is the difference between...?

Talking to yourself isn’t just harmless—it’s scientifically proven to boost cognitive function and language retention. According to research, internal self-talk regulates emotions and improves focus, especially under pressure. Now imagine doing this in your target language—it’s like rewiring your internal operating system to think in new words, sounds, and rhythms.
And here’s something else that’s fascinating—rehearsed monologue, or what we call “self-talk,” activates the same brain regions involved in conversation with others. That means that practicing your thoughts aloud, even in private, preps your brain for real-life social interactions.

When you talk to yourself in a new language, you’re building not just fluency—you’re building trust. Trust in your own voice. Confidence grows when we hear ourselves trying.
And in moments of doubt, this diary becomes your mirror. It shows you how far you’ve come—not just in words, but in courage.
