5 Kesalahan Fatal Belajar Bahasa Asing Belajarlah Seperti Bayi Bayi menghabiskan banyak waktunya sebelum berbicara untuk mendengar, menyimak, dan menyaksikan orang dewasa bercakap-cakap. Kita semua terlahir tanpa bisa berbicara sepatah katapun apalagi membaca dan menulis. Adalah sebuah kesalahan besar jika Anda berniat mulai mempelajari sebuah bahasa asing, berharap bisa langsung fasih speaking, paham bacaan kompleks, atau bahkan mampu menulis dalam bahasa yang baru saja Anda pelajari. Bayi menghabiskan ratusan jam untuk listening, listening, dan listening. Setelah dewasa, mengapa kita justru tidak memprioritaskan aspek listening? Kurikulum sekolah lebih sibuk membahas grammar, penggunaan software mahal, atau memaksa siswa-siswi untuk langsung bisa menulis dan berbicara (conversation). Maka tak heran, jika sebagian besar kita merasakan kesulitan dalam aspek listening ini. Karena mendengar tidak pernah dilatih dari awal proses belajar bahasa, selalu disepelekan atau bahkan tidak diasah sama sekali. Padahal pendengaran adalah indera pertama yang harus dilatih sebelum seseorang benarbenar bisa berbicara (speaking), membaca (reading), dan menulis (writing). Merusak urutas belajar di atas adalah sebuah kesalahan fatal Disinilah mengapa belajar menggunakan video menjadi salah satu alternatif yang alami, terjangkau, & natural untuk mempelajari sebuah bahasa asing. Dengar, dengar, & dengar sebanyak mungkin, terus dengarkan meskipun Anda belum paham. Jangan tergesa-gesa untuk menjadi FASIH. Ingat! Bayi menghabiskan waktunya hingga ratusan bahkan ribuan jam untuk bisa berbicara, itupun baru a, i, u, e, o saja. Bersabarlah, ini adalah proses yang natural. Metode belajar lainnya seperti melalui buku atau kursus hanya menjadi pelengkap saja. Berapa banyak orang yang telah mengikuti kursus bertahun-tahun tapi tidak bisa apa-apa kecuali mengatakan How are you? I am fine. Hal ini karena mereka kehilangan essensi yang sebenarnya. Kursus dan pelajaran melalui buku tetap penting, tapi di luar itu, Anda harus tetap banyak terekspos dengan target bahasa yang ingin Anda kuasai. Mulailah dengan banyak menyimak video. Selamat mencoba dan semoga berhasil!

Ayo Belajar Bahasa Mandarin 千里之行, 始于足下 Qiān lǐ zhī xíng, shǐ yú zú xià A journey of a thousand miles starts with one step. Laozi Bahasa Mandarin semakin penting seiring dengan meningkatnya kekuatan ekonomi Tiongkok. Dari Singapura hingga London, dari Medan hingga Vancuver, bahasa Mandarin telah menjadi bahasa yang menjadi prioritas utama untuk diajarkan di berbagai sekolah maupun universitas di seluruh dunia. Popularitas ini bukan tanpa alasan, terdapat lebih dari 1 milliar orang yang berbicara bahasa Mandarin. Seperlima dari penduduk bumi berbicara bahasa Mandarin, mulai dari rakyat Tiongkok, Taiwan, Tahiland, Malaysia, Singapura, Brunei, sampai Indonesia. Bahasa Mandarin memiliki reputasi sebagai salah satu bahasa yang sangat sulit untuk dipeajari. Tapi dengan adanya karakter bahasa Mandarin yang telah disederhanakan dan pengembangan Hanya Pinyin, mempelajari bahasa Mandarin semakin mudah. Pemakaian huruf-huruf sederhana bahasa Mandarin sejak tahun 1954 telah mengurangi kompleksitas simbol-simbol bahasa tersebut. Hal ini tentunya juga semakin memudahkan penulisan hurufhuruf bahasa Mandarin. Kamus bahasa Mandarin terdiri dari 40,000 karakter, hanya sekitar 2,000-3,000 saja yang dibutuhkan untuk dapat membaca koran berbahasa Mandarin. Kaum terdidik di Tiongkok biasanya mengetahui 6,000-7,000 karakter. Angka-angka ini bukanlah jumlah yang harus ditakutkan, karena dalam sebuah bahasa, seseorang menggunakan rata-rata 8,000 kata. Jadi

jumlah 6,000-7,000 kata yang harus Anda kuasai untuk memahami bahasa Mandarin bukanlah sesuatu yang harus Anda cemaskan. Dengan karakter tulisannya yang unik, sebuah penelitian menujukkan bahwa mempelajari dan menulis bahasa Mandarin dapat meningkatkan kemampuan kognitif seseorang. Hal ini tidak didapatkan dari mempelajari bahasa lainnya. Banyak orang yang mempelajari bahasa Mandarin hanya karena alasan bisnis dan perdagangan, padahal manfaatnya untuk kemampuan intelektual seseorang juga dapat menjadi alasan lain yang patut dipertimbangkan. Mempelajari bahasa Mandarin dapat merangsang beberapa bagian otak. Hal ini karena bahasa Mandarin adalah bahasa yang sangat peka terhadap suara, intonasi dan karakter penulisan yang unik. Penutur bahasa Mandarin menggunakan intonasi untuk membedakan arti dari satu kata yang sama. Sebuah penelitian yang dilakukan oleh Wellcome Trust di United Kingdom melaporkan bahwa orang-orang yang berbicara bahasa Mandarin menggunakan kedua temporal lobe pada otak mereka. Temporal lobe adalah bagian yang terdapat otak yang berfungsi untuk memproses ingatan. Hal ini berbeda pada penggunaan bahasa lainnya yang hanya mengaktifkan satu temporal lobe. Proses penulisan karakter bahasa Mandarin juga dipercaya membantu perkembangan motorik seseorang, mengasah identifikasi bentuk, membantu visualisasi geometri, dan menjaga otak agar tetap tajam. Berbeda dengan huruf latin yang statis dan ditulis dari kiri ke kanan, karaketer bahasa Mandarin sangat dinamis dan kompleks serta ditulis dalam empat arah orientasi: atas, bawah, kiri, dan kanan. Proses menulis karakter Mandarin ini dapat mengaktivasi kerja saraf untuk berfikir dan mengingat. Penelitiann lain juga banyak yang mengindikasikan adanya korelasi antara mempelajari bahasa Mandarin dan peningkatan kemampuan matematika seseorang.

Bahasa Mandarin tidaklah sesulit yang dibayangkan orang. Seperti bahasa Asia lainnya, grammar bahasa Mandarin cukup sederhana, tidak ada tenses, plural, dan gender layaknya bahasa-bahasa Eropa. Bagian yang cukup menantang mungkin terletak pada intonasi. Bahasa Mandarin adalah bahasa yang sangat sensitif terhadap penekanan suara. Sebagai contoh, jika Anda mengucapkan tāng denan nada tinggi itu berarti sup, tapi jika Anda mengucapkannya dengan nada naik maka itu bermakna gula. Salah satu proses yang paling menyenangkan dalam bahasa Mandarin mungkin terdapat pada pelajaran menulis hurufnya. Kaligrafi bangsa Tiongkok sangat indah dipandang mata dan memiliki makna yang begitu dalam.

Manfaat Menguasai Bahasa Mandarin 1. Menjadi bagian dari perkembangan negara Tiongkok. Bangsa Tiongkok adalah salah satu dari kebudayaan dunia yang paling tua dan kaya, yakni lebih dari 5000 tahun. Setelah Tiongkok membuka diri, kekuatan ekonominya menjadi tak terbendung. Tidak ada yang meragukan bahwa dalam beberapa tahun ke depan, Tiongkok akan menjadi pemain besar dalam peta perekonomian dunia. Dan penguasaan bahasa Tiongkok dapat menjadi modal Anda untuk mengambil bagian dari kemajuan Tiongkok. 2. Memperluas networking. Banyak pelaku usaha Indonesia yang bekerjasama dan menjalin hubungan baik dengan para pengusaha Tiongkok. Para pebisnis dari negeri tirai bambupun lebih menyukai bertransaksi dengan bahasa Mandarin, meskipun mereka dapat menggunakan bahasa Inggris dengan cukup fasih. 3. Menambah teman. Bahasa Mandarin dapat memperluas jaringan pertemanan Anda. Jika Anda hanya mampu berbicara bahasa Indonesia, maka teman-teman sosial media Anda kemungkinan besar adalah 100% orang Indonesia. Jika Anda mampu menguasai bahasa Inggris, teman-teman Anda mungkin hanya akan bertambah sedikit saja karena orang-orang yang berbahasa Inggris cenderung menutup diri. Tetapi jika Anda mampu berbahasa Mandarin, jumlah teman-teman Anda akan bertambah drastis bukan hanya dari Tiongkok, tapi juga dari Thailand, Singapura, Malaysia, Inggris, Amerika, sampai Afrika. Orang Tiongkok ada di mana-mana yang sukses merantau dan memiliki keturunan di seluruh penjuru dunia.

4. Menjadi bahasa perantau. Tidak ada satupun negara besar dan maju di dunia ini yang tidak memiliki China Town. Warga Indonesia di luar negeri patut bersyukur dengan adanya kampung pecinan ini, sebab banyak makanan dan bumbu khas Indonesia yang dijual di sana. Menguasai bahasa Mandarin membuat Anda merasa bersaudara dengan lebih dari 1 miliar orang Tiongkok di seluruh dunia. 5. Bahasa akademis. Lihat pencapaian orang-orang Tiongkok dalam prestasi akademik. Banyak kampus-kampus top dunia yang memiliki mahasiswamahasiswa jenius asal negeri Panda. Bahkan, tak jarang ketika mereka lulus, banyak yang akhirnya menjadi dosen dan menyebar di kampus-kampus bergengsi di Amerika dan Eropa. Menguasai bahasa Mandarin akan sangat membantu Anda untuk berkomunikasi dengan teman-teman atau dosen asal Tiongkok di luar negeri. 6. Bahasa wisata. Dari Hongkong sampai Singapura, dari Beijing sampai Makau, mempelajari bahasa Mandarin membuka kesempatan travelling yang lebih luas. Di Tiongkok sendiri, negeri itu penuh dengan objek-objek wisata yang sangat indah mulai dari Beijing, Xi an, Nanjing, dll. 7. Bahasa Martial Art. Siapa yang tidak kenal dengan bela diri asal Tiongkok, shaolin, wing chun, kung fu, dsb. Jika Anda ingin sekedar bisa, belajar ilmu bela diri dapat dilakukan di perguruan-perguruan silat di tanah air. Tapi jika Anda ingin serius mendalami hingga mencapai tingkat master. Tidak ada kata lain selain harus berguru ke tempat asal kelahiran bela diri tersebut. Dan bahasa adalah syarat

pertamanya. Pelajari bahasa Mandarin maka Anda akan mampu menyelami ribuan kitab-kitab jurus kuno dari negeri tirai bambu. 8. Bahasa Mandarin adalah bahasa nenek moyang Indonesia. Banyak arsip sejarah yang menunjukkan bahwa bangsa Indonesia berasal dari daerah Yunan, Tiongkok Selatan. Warisan budaya Tiongkok bukan hanya ada pada makanan di Indonesia seperti bakso, bakmi, cincau, cap cai, cahkwe, dan siomay, tapi juga pada arsitek dan pakaian khas suku-suku di Indonesia. Begitu pula dengan serapan bahasa Mandarin ke dalam bahasa Indonesia seperti engkong, giok, hoki, dan banyak lainnya. 9. Memudahkan mempelajari bahasa Jepang. Mengetahui bagaimana membaca dan menulis aksara bahasa Mandarin akan membantu Anda untuk memahami kanji dalam bahasa Jepang dengan lebih mudah. Sebab bahasa Jepang banyak menggunakan aksara bahasa Mandarin dengan arti yang sama, meskipun pengucapan dan tata bahasanya sama sekali berbeda. 10. Bahasa Mandarin adalah bahasa kuno. Para arkeologis telah menemukan tulisantulisan bahasa Mandarin pada tulang-tulang binatang dan rumah kura-kura yang dapat ditelusuri hingga ke Dinasti Shang lebih dari 3,000 tahun yang lalu. Karya klassik Book of Songs merupakan koleksi puisi-puisi berbahasa Mandarin yang ditulis sekitar 1,000 tahun sebelum Masehi. Karya Confusius yang ditulis pada 400 tahun sebelum masehi juga masih dapat kita temukan. Bangsa Tionkok memiliki tradisi menulis yang kuat. Dengan kemampuan bahasa Mandarin, kita yang hidup

hari ini masih bisa membaca dan memahami karya-karya kuno peninggalan umat manusia ribuan tahun yang lalu.
