Currently, I'm delivering speeches in Korean. However, I can't mustered up the time and patience needed to translate myself but I do take the time to memorize them wholly. Does anyone have any experience with this method? 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

No personal experience, but I remember reading, during (and after) Obama's first presidential campaign, about students in some Japanese language schools listening to broadcasts of his speeches and using them as models. There were a number of articles about the phenomenon. One from the New York Times, among others from the BBC, Huffington Post, etc... Edited to check: you do mean that you memorize speeches that other people have composed, yes? Or are you referring to writing texts of your own? (That is, "conversational islands", little prepared talks on various topics, as aids to conversational fluency? - "Fluency" in this case referring to fluid, non-halting exchanges of dialogue between two or more speakers.)
