\nSinging in a Foreign Language Helps You Learn Better Than Just Speaking It <\/h2>\n

There\u2019s a new study by the University of Edinburgh Reid School of
\nMusic<\/strong> that shows singing in a foreign language is a better way
\nto learn it than simply repeating phrases<\/strong>. One test even showed that
\npeople who sang foreign phrases performed twice as well as their non-singing
\ncounterparts. Everyone sing along with me now: Zut alors!<\/p>\n

The study was done by having three groups of twenty adults take part in five
\ntests in which they repeated short Hungarian phrases. The subjects either first
\nlearned the phrases through simple spoken repetition or through singing, and on
\nfour out of the five tests, the singing groups performed better.<\/p>\n

Karen M. Ludke led the study as part of her research for a PhD in Music in
\nHuman and Social Development at the university. Ludke said:<\/p>\n

\nThis study provides the first experimental evidence that a listen-and-repeat
\nsinging method can support foreign language learning, and opens the door for
\nfuture research in this area. One question is whether melody could provide an
\nextra cue to jog people\u2019s memory, helping them recall foreign words and phrases
\nmore easily.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The study used Hungarian as a test language because it\u2019s not familiar to most
\nEnglish speakers, but the study supports the idea that singing in any language
\ncould help you better learn it. Further evidence of that concept is that I\u2019ve
\nhad this song from my \u201cFrench 1\u2033 class stuck in my head since 1997.<\/p>\n
