<p>Ps I want to learn
*German
*Japanese
*Chinese
*Spanish
*Dutch
*Russian
*Swedish
*Geek
*French
*Irish
*Portuguese </p>
<p>Yes I know that this will take years apon years to learn all these languages, but I really have a big passion to do this and I want to know at least one more language by the end of high school (10th grader right now)</p>
<p>The best way to learn a language fluently is to go to that country. It takes a person 6 months to learn a language when forced. So if you were to go to Greece, and were forced to learn it, you will get it quick. Or try to hang out with people who fluently speak those languages and hang with them often.</p>
<p>Irish will be hard since not many people speak Irish, and not many Irish people even speak that. Based off of that list Dutch and Swedish will be the easiest, since its similar to English, from there do German. Learn Spanish then do Portuguese, from there do French. That will make French easier to learn. Russian, Chinese, and Japanese will be hard as hell though. Those are some quick shortcuts.</p>
<p>Well at this moment I don’t have money or time to send 6 months in another country. But yeah I will follow your route though thanks! </p>
<p>Also @jehy13 thanks for the fun website @Funstuff and you know there are other ways to make you more better and be more of a ***** other than saying stupid crap</p>
<p>^ You should be a CS major and improve googletranslate and babblefish. Not only would that allow you to actually be successful, you’d also help others instead of selfishly hoarding languages like a woman on TLC. </p>
<p>And my methods of making myself more better are none of your business. Seriously, maybe you should spend another few years getting more better at English before you move on to learn “Geek.”</p>
<p>Why are you so bent on language software? I’m trying to teach myself French and this is what I use/did.</p>

<li>This, mostly: [LiveMocha[/url</a>]. Get a cheap mic so you can work on your pronunciation and have members grade you. It’s easy to find other people to talk with.</li>

---- Specifically, [url=<a href=“http://gloss.dliflc.edu/]GLOSS[/url”>http://gloss.dliflc.edu/]GLOSS[/url</a>]. There are other helpful articles and things on the DLIFLC’s website, but it’s all a ***** to navigate.</li>
<li>I’ve got Rosetta Stone downloaded as an .iso, but I haven’t gotten around to installing it. </li>
<li>I’ve got tons of French websites for news, entertainment, sports, etc. bookmarked. Plenty of videos, audio, and articles.</li>
<li>I’ve also got French RSS feeds, both culture-based ones and ones meant for learning the language.</li>
<li>Wikipedia and other websites offer extra lessons on French grammar.</li>
<li><p>Find children’s books in French online. It’s how I learned a good deal of English so go figure. As I get better I’ll read translations of more difficult material.</p></li>
<li><p>I changed my Firefox profile’s primary language to French, with English as the backup. Now if a website is offered in French, it will appear that way instead of in English.</p></li>
<li><p>Facebook, gmail, and everything else is in French. Basically it’s just forcing yourself to read and understand French.</p></li>
</ul>
<p>And I’ve got translators, both Eng > Fr and Fr > Eng, on my desktop for quick translations. </p>
<p>All of this was free, so that’s good. The only issue with not having a formal teacher is that learning how to pronounce words can be difficult if you have no one to ask for help. Learning to pronounce properly will take more time, as you have no one to correct you. All you have to do though is find someone to converse with, and your problem’s solved.</p>
<p>I’m taking French and Spanish in school atm and I never knew what to do outside of class besides reading the textbooks…</p>
<p>I would also like to learn Russian and the college I’ll most likely be at next year offers it. Although I also want to continue French and Spanish, so I don’t know what to do…Three languages is a lot. And of course there are still others I like. UGH.</p>
