How easy is it to learn a new language ? And Rosetta Stone vs Babel

I did Rossetta. I’m sure babel is good also. Should pick it up pretty quick on account of how many people speak Spanish in the south. Conversing with other people who speak it is the best way by far. I did Rosetta for French. I know a good amount but can’t speak it fluently on account there’s nobody in FL who speaks it.

I got Rosetta Stone and it really did work wonders. I thought it would be impossible to learn a foreign language. There are dialects and accents and shite you can’t really learn quickly but within 3 weeks I was already fully functional and maybe even “fluent” for a foreigner. Yep - 3 weeks and I can speak Australian.

Ive been doing duolingo and lessons about 2-3 times a week for 3 or so months and know alot amd can read and listen pretty well. Still have trouble using the words. I can say alot of stuff but my conversations are still hard to spit out. I havent put in enough time outside of duolingo and the lessons to get better. Imo you would need a couple of hours a day of conversation and practice to really improve and get fluent in a short period of time.

there used to be night classes at USL that tought that, cher

My sister (no pics) would religiously practice her Duolingo Spanish and can speak fluently after about 2 years. She practiced a lot in public settings (lives in South Florida, so most places were bilingual employees.)

I've been trying to learn Russian for years. Dating a native speaker has helped. The pronunciation is a bitch.
