Whenever I learn a new language, I always encounter a bottleneck—it feels like no matter what I do, I just can't seem to improve my language skills.
However, after learning my fourth and fifth languages, I gradually figured out ways to break through these plateaus, especially after reaching an intermediate level.
In this episode, I’d like to share these methods with you.

在我学习任何一门语言的时候，我都曾经遇到过瓶颈——就好像自己似乎做任何事情都没办法提高自己的语言水平。
但是，在我学习了第四门、第五门语言之后，我逐渐总结出如何突破瓶颈的方法，尤其是在水平达到了中级之后。
这一期播客里，我想和你分享这些方法。
