- Limit grammar study when starting a language to avoid overthinking and distraction.
- Anthony Metivier recommends focusing on speaking, reading, writing, listening, and memorizing vocabulary instead of deep grammar at first.

- Learn the grammar vocabulary and scaffolding names first so you can place rules mentally.
- Metivier suggests memorizing terms like nominative, genitive, dative, accusative, ablative, and vocative as scaffolding.

- Metivier used a friend's house as a memory palace to map Latin declensions to locations.
- He placed Noam Chomsky for nominative, a Sega Genesis for genitive, and Data for dative on the house facade.
