How can/should I try to learn many languages?

Question

I love to learn languages more then any thing else. However, my school only offers french and spanish. What approach or program should I use to try to learn as many languages as possible as fast as possible. Also, keep in mind: I am not "excellent" with languages. For example I can't speak french fluently but I have been taking it for 3 years. I want to learn a lot of languages fast, how can I do this in a sane and somewhat believable way?

Answer 1

It really depends on how much you want to learn for each language, if you want to develop a real understanding of the language, or just know some useful words and sentences.
Learning a language in depth is something that requires a lot of time and effort. If you want to learn only some useful sentences and words, I would recommend using some books or audio CDs (you can find some at the library, or cheap online,...). If you really want to learn a language, I would recommend the TeLL me More language software, it is very comprehensive and much better than any other language software.

Answer 2

You could purchase books and tapes, or programs like Rosetta Stone.
Perhaps you can take a class or two at a community college--depending on your age, location, and whether or not they offer more than French and Spanish. In my case, I have to check with people such as my counselor if I want to take a community college course, so I suggest you do that, too (if everything else is in place).
You can work on languages during your free time--maybe after school, on weekends, and/or on breaks (summer and winter).
It would help if you had someone to communicate with in the language(s), which makes me think taking a community college course may be the best route, but it depends on your situation.

As of modern situation, Hindi will not be regarded a worldwide language, however who is aware of what the longer term would possibly preserve? This does no longer imply that one day there shall be a problem in which every body demands to gain knowledge of Hindi. No that's no longer my factor. Most of the foreigners who desire to gain knowledge of Hindi are the industry humans who desire to give a boost to their contacts in India. The trouble is, Hindi isn't spoken in the course of India. It is utilized in fundamental towns like Delhi, Mumbai, and so on. and those are industry hubs. So there's an growing necessity to gain knowledge of Hindi for industry humans. For the average people, studying Hindi is rather like a passion. If you do not desire to paintings or reside in international locations like China and Japan, why could you desire to gain knowledge of Mandarin and Japanese? Just like a passion! I'm an Indian and even though Hindi isn't my mom tongue, I realize it just like the again of my hand. I'm now seeking to do the equal with Japanese. Not that I plan to settle in Japan, simply due to the fact that I just like the language. Similarly, many Hindi beginners gain knowledge of Hindi simply due to the fact that they prefer the sound of it. So it is all right down to you. The backside line is that Hindi would possibly/would possibly not emerge as a worldwide language. But similar to different languages, it'll retain to be at the record of languages that humans love to gain knowledge of. And simply to make matters transparent, Hindi isn't India's "countrywide" language. It is best the "reliable" language.
