By request, I touch briefly on the subject on learning to speak a foreign language before learning to read and write it. I believe there are correct and incorrect ways of doing this, as long as you efforts don't impede on speaking the language. Not mentioned in the video is the fact that learning to read the language and recognize roots is beneficial for building extensive vocabulary.
