When you are learning a language your goal is to become fluent. The average study routine includes reading, writing, listening, and speaking. These are controlled activities because you are using study materials that teach you structured vocabulary and grammar. But if you want to get closer to fluency, you need to think in a foreign language.
Before we go any further, this post isn't click-bait or one trick to magically think in a language. We all know that learning a language is mentally challenging, but that's why we love it so much. Being able to think in another language is the ultimate skill. that gets you closer to fluency.
Without further ado, we'll give you some tips on how to think in a foreign language.
There are two ways that you can go about it. The first is context-based learning, where you mentally create a learning environment. Maybe you're looking at the menu at a Mexican restaurant. Use that opportunity to describe your favorite dish in Spanish.
The other way is to make a conscious effort (conditioning) to think in that language. In a way, it's forcing you to use the language daily, but it makes a difference.
It may seem a bit weird but stay with us. Talking to yourself is good practice to start when you want to think in a foreign language. You can easily narrate your day because even the most mundane tasks count. In the beginning, don't worry about accuracy so much. Let the thoughts flow even if they aren't grammatically correct.

watch TV shows and movies in the target language. You will be surprised at how much this can help you.
