I learned ebonics in public high school. so four years I guess

If you immerse yourself
Posted on 12/25/14 at 9:22 pm to cheesesteak501
In an immersion program, yes.

If you live in the host country you can become fairly good in a year but still not really fluent. Consider that some of y'all have lived in the US your entire lives and still use an apostrophe to indicate the plural case.

Probably a Romance language would be doable.

I'm going to ask you why. Out of curiousity sake, what's your end game.
Not why a second language, why French?

Go live in France for a year and I'm sure you'll be fluent

About quadruple the time it took me to forget it
Posted on 12/25/14 at 9:32 pm to cheesesteak501
And the honest answer is if you immerse yourself. I still wouldn't call 1 year immersion fluent but pretty damn close

I'm fluent in French. I'm currently learning Spanish. I can read it ok and can understand some but I can't talk that well yet. I think I would be better learning from spaniards instead of central and South Americans. Unfortunately they talk way too fast for me to understand everything

I've always wanted to learn Japanese and Spanish.

Are you still in school? LSU?
Posted on 12/25/14 at 9:37 pm to cheesesteak501
I learned English at age 8, I picked up well when I moved to us

no

Dos años aproximadamente.

I can recommend an immersion program in Canada but you would need 6 weeks off of work
