Honestly? Go and live in the country of choice for a while. You will pick up the language quicker than any class or book.

yes, as I said, it's the fast track to learning the language but I think it should be done after you have some ground of the language - that way you learn it quicker when living in that country.
you need to learn to crawl before you learn to walk

Constant conversation with people who has the knowledge about it could help. Visit some foreign boards or have those foreign chat friends.

Evidently you're new here..

I SALE ICQ!

As mentioned above, immersion is the best way, but failing that, seeing it in use (I would not recommend a forum - slang and typing disease has affected almost everyone under the age of fourty) is one of the best ways to see how to 'read' it. As far as pronunciation, immersion is still the best.

Better yet, buy a language translation booklet and bring it with you wherever you go.

Watch movies in spanish with english subtitles, that will help you a lot. If you need any help with Spanish hit me up ;)

Best is to hire private teacher where you will be only one student.

**Aquarius** · 10-24-2006, 07:53 AM

Get a girlfriend who speaks it.

**marketsmart** · 10-24-2006, 08:04 AM

use free online translators

**CherryLipsRosa** · 10-24-2006, 08:17 AM

You need to find a person to talk with even if you have the tapes or books it is way harder to do it on your own

I learnt english way before I started my english lessons in school from just watching subtitled american and british soap operas. That way you pick up the structure, the accent and build up vocabulary really quickly. Of course it might be a challenge for an english speaker to find something interesting to watch with english subtitles.

Now that my hubby is slowly starting to learn my 1st language, I found it useful to place post-it notes on things around the house like fridge, door, window, computer etc. saying their name in finnish, to teach him some of the basic words.
