  1. I like to write new vocabularies that I came across everyday to keep tab of all of them. This way, I ensure that I am improving on a daily basis. Sure, it takes a lot of time, but it's totally worth it.
  2. If you have already earns the basics, you should tart listening to that language whenever and wherever possible. I suggest you to watch some movies in that language whenever you ave some time to spare. It may not sound like a productive idea, but it will do wonders for you.
  3. I guess I never switched languages. I feel like giving up on French for quite a time now, but I won't. I know I gotta do it no matter what.
  4. Writing is easier than speaking. It just is. I guess it's because you have more time to think when you are writing. There is no such thing as fumbling in writing.
  5. Can you do it? Trying to learn one language at a time can be so frustrating sometimes. We are talking about 2 languages here. If you can manage it, goo for it.
  6. I say go or French. Of course, it's going to be your choice at the end off the day, but in my opinion, you should consider giving this language a shot. It's not easy to learn, but well worth the effort.
  7. No, I wouldn't say so. Thanks to the British Colonial era, English is ingrained in our blood since childhood. You can't run away from this language if you want a good job and life. Other languages can prove a bit difficult to learn, but nothing is impossible.
  8. I use these words almost interchangeably. These words mean the same. Like someone said above me, 'maybe' sounds more informal.
  9. Being an Indian, I already have a thickish accent. So I wouldn't be able to change it even if I wanted to. But I notice the change in pace though.
  10. The only reason I learn these languages is because its a necessity. I wouldn't be here interacting with you people if it was't for English would I?
  11. When you don't understand something even though he is repeating it, the worst thing you could do is leave. Tell him to help you understand even though it can be frustrating for him. He would be glad to help you out with it. Show eagerness.
  12. I am focused on too many languages right now to give any attention to any other language. I am learning French right now, so I would like to stick to it for the time being. Italian and Chinese is also on my list.
  13. I think both version of the sentences are pretty much writable. It won't be recognized as a mistake in either of these cases.
  14. Books can be a really great way to learn more about a language, especially if you know the basics already. It can be infuriating at times to read a book in other language, but you'll get used to it soon.
  15. I can write in four languages. I can write in Angika, Hindi, Punjabi and English. Although my Punjabi is not that good, I can still write.
  16. It depends on your learning capacity. It doesn't take long to learn the basics of a language. Mastering it, though, takes years of continuous practice.
  17. I might as well try it on Spanish girls if they are accurate. I will end up humiliating myself if I pronounce something wrong though.
  18. When you have some basic knowledge about a particular language, it's easier to learn though movies and TV show than any other means as they teach you how to pronounce a word an when to use a particular word.
  19. While I agree that it's hard for people to adapt to a different accent, I don;t think that our mouths are shaped for any particular type of sound. I have been living in Delhi since my childhood, but I have never made a mistake in pronouncing anything. I come from Bihar, a backward state in India where it's impossible for people to even try to imite the accent of Delhi. But I can naturally speak it as I have been living here for as long as I remember.
  20. I am not an American, so i won;t e able to tell you about your education system. But things are not really good here as far as language learning is concerned. We concentrate one English apart from our native language. We never get a chance to learn other languages apart from these two.
  21. The only language I learned in school was Sanskrit and that too is nowhere near as good as I thought it would be. I ma never going to go back to school to learn any language. The unofficial way f learning a language is the best wa to do it just like I did with English.
  22. The are out on Kickstarter which means that it's going to take more than 2 years for the game to be finished. I am going to check it out an see if it's worth my money.
  23. I just searched the Google Play store to find such an app, but there aren't any yet. There are other means of learning this language though.
  24. If you are a Pakistani, you are already speaking a modified version of Hindi called Urdu. There is not much difference in both these languages to be honest.
  25. It's nice to see a South African here. Nice to meet you!
