Learning Language
Learning a new language has always been considered a challenging task. The difficulty lies not just in picking up new words but also in picking up correct grammatical usages. The intricacies of language vary starkly as one moves from occidental languages to oriental languages. Not to mention the myriad scripts that are prevalent today in various languages like English, Russian, Arabic, Cantonese, Korean, Japanese, Hindi, etc. It would be worth mentioning that India alone is home to over 1000 languages and an equally large number of scripts.

Effective Learning
There are many techniques for and theories about effective learning. Some are as basic as Pavlov and his dogs, a reference to the early 20th Century Nobel prize-winning theory. The Russian scientist is best known for his research into conditioned reflexes, which most people associate with Pavlov and his dogs and getting animals to take certain actions based on certain stimuli. Over the years, schools have thought that variations on Pavlov led to effective learning. Eventually, educators gave up on the idea that ringing a bell or uttering a phrase will result in real, thoughtful learning.
