I'm curious to hear the thoughts of others on talking to yourself to build listening comprehension skills. I feel I learned to understand a lot of Spanish with this method. My ear seems to pick up words faster because I've used them. Has anyone else used this method to build listening comprehension in their target language? It seems to go against the conventional thought, listening precedes speaking, but it seems production helps immensely in understanding a language, provided the speaker has a decent accent after listening to the language for several months. So what are your thoughts or experiences?

Listening is the hardest skill for me
