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.

what is the difference between 不 and 没有？


不 (bù) and 没有 (méi yǒu) are both negation words in Chinese, but they are used in slightly different ways.

不 (bù) is an adverb that negates the verb or adjective that follows it. It is used to express "not" or "no."

For example:

我不喜欢吃苹果 (wǒ bù xǐ huān chī píng guǒ) - I don't like eating apples

他不是医生 (tā bù shì yī shēng) - He is not a doctor

没有 (méi yǒu) is used to negate the verb in the past tense or to express "not have." It is often used in combination with a verb in the past tense to indicate that something did not happen.

For example:

我没有吃早饭 (wǒ méi yǒu chī zǎo fàn) - I didn't eat breakfast

他没有去过北京 (tā méi yǒu qù guo běi jīng) - He has not been to Beijing

nalphabetismus

Ein Mensch ist Analphabet, wenn er nicht oder nicht RICHTIG lesen und schreiben kann. Das sind in Deutschland etwa 7,5 Millionen oder 14,5 % aller ERWACHSENEN. Ein funktionaler Analphabet kann vielleicht Buchstaben und Wörter lesen, er hat aber MÜHE einen längeren Text zu verstehen. Für diese Menschen sind viele ALLTÄGLICHE Dinge eine große Herausforderung: das Lesen eines FAHRPLANS, das Verstehen einer Gebrauchsanweisung, das Ausfüllen eines Formulars oder das Schreiben einer Nachricht auf dem Smartphone. Analphabetismus hat viele Gründe. Diese Menschen sind aber fast immer von wichtigen Bereichen des täglichen Lebens ausgeschlossen. Der LEIDENSDRUCK kann groß sein und so entwickeln viele von ihnen komplizierte Strategien, um ihr Defizit zu VERTUSCHEN: Man hat die Brille vergessen, hat sich die Hand verletzt, hat keinen Stift dabei und so weiter. All das ist SELBSTVERSTÄNDLICH keine Lösung des Problems. Es gibt aber Hilfe für erwachsene Analphabeten:  In den größeren Städten werden Kurse angeboten und natürlich können Betroffene auch digitale Möglichkeiten nutzen.
