I paid for a Russian DVD and phrasebook once from lonleyplanet. It was pretty helpful but I would obviously prefer to use free online resources. I've also contemplated just hiring a private language teacher for myself.

I would agree that the Asian languages are very hard to learn. I don't even want to attempt to learn Chinese or Japanese. I think you need a lot of time to learn those languages. The romance language are considered easier but they are still harder than English.

I haven't learned a language fluently yet so I'm curious to see if this will happen to me when I do. I've been trying to master Spanish for years so maybe one day I'll have a dream in Spanish which would be very cool.

My native language is English. I'm having a hard time finding something special about English. I think we have a lot of words that have 2 different meaning like there, their and they're, Plain and Plane etc.

I would suggest learning one language at a time because it gives you more time to learn each language. You need to be patient while learning a language.
