hard work and if you're like most people, lots of time.

what language do you want to learn? for speaking or reading?

From a psychological perspective there would only be two suitable options:

1.) immerse yourself in the language. (this will be the fastest way to pick it up)

2.) semi-immersion (prolonged way of retaining language.)

Unfortunately as we age our language acquisition skills decrease an an exponential rate. The sad truth is that a 6 year old child can pick up any language significantly quicker then a grown man. weird hey? lol.

There is some software that are good options.. for this method, it really depends on the particular language though...

So has Jenny Craig's stock..and I continue to see obese people everywhere.

Wanna know how to really learn a language? Immerse yourself in the culture/people.

I tried it, I didnt like it at all.

The best way and most fun way is to date a girl that speaks whatever language you want to learn.

thats because most fat people are to lazy and they wont try jenny craig or anyother weight loss methods. as for immersing yourself in the culture to learn, that isnt an option for most

[MaNiCC]

German and mainly russian is what i want to learn, currently studying so wouldnt be able to immerse myself in the culture

For reading and speaking purposes

i asked about what software because some people use rosseta and other various programs so just wanted feedback from people who have used them?

For me I have to see the words in text. I just get a beginners book and read to get the basics of correct grammar and conjugation.

To hell with with Bolshevik language, try German but it is far from an easy language to learn. If the pronunciation doesn't get you, the structuring of verbs etc will blow your mind. German does not have the same rules as English, you can continue to speak and speak and speak without stopping whereas in English we have stopping points. I probably didn't explain that well but i'm no teacher.

This will help you

Listen to this, this will at least give you an idea how German speakers will respond to you. Watch 1-11

I think working through a text like that is a far superior way of learning a language than Rosetta Stone or any similar software.

When the US military ships you off to some far away land, then you pick up the lingo real fast.

Your life may depend on it.

+1 on rosetta stone. if you use it with some effort you will learn

[energizer bunny]

take a class at your local college.....and also the home tapes may help....i want to learn spanish...i think that will be easier than russian or german.

[Flagg]

Roseta Stone, wasnt that the name of a shitty film in the 80's that Michael Douglas was in?

I would say living in the country whose native language you want to learn helps. Or speak to someone who is fluent in said language or failing that, get those tapes.

Just a note on this. The english language actually has the same origin as the german language. And if you have an ear for language you recognize many of the words. Example in your video: Guten Tag : Good Day.

It depends who is manipulating what.
