My experience is I have never learned much of anything by watching shows in a foreign language compared with the amount of time in traditional study

Maybe I watch for an hour and learn one or two words and any words they borrowed from other languages I already know such as mainly English

In that hour I could have memorized a lot of new words from a vocabularly list instead

But maybe the shows I watch are at too difficult a language level

@Stahesh

The claim is that if you know 80% of the vocabulary then you learn the rest of the vocabulary through context but if it has 100% words you do not know then you do not learn any vocabularly words

He might be wrong and it might be better if you only watch shows where you know 100% of the words so you just learn the context of how the Grammar is used with vocabulary words you already know from the show and so you learn how to hear the words when they are not in writing

@Stahesh

Lazy way to learn language

Watch shows where you understand at least 80% of vocabularly but less than 100% of vocabularly

When I was much younger I was interested in Wayne's world and Bill and Ted's most excellent adventure and could not tell the difference between the two

Now that I am older and can read wikipedia plot summaries even though I can watch those movies or shows that I never got to see I am no longer interested in Wayne's World or Bill and Ted

Is there any reason that I should watch them anyway when there are so many other alternatives to choose that seem better to me?

What would baby boomers say if someone said Israel needs to pick itself up by it's own bootstraps so we should not give it money because it can succeed by shaking people's hand and looking them in the eye at a job interview?
