I have learned English for 6 years,but can’t use it so good.
How long do u spend on an forein language?
My mother language is Chinese.
I just want to learn English in all of the forein languages.
karmaOWL is trying to finish the MCH website.
Once, I signed up for a Russian class at my University. It was through the coninuing education department and only a 4-week course, but very intensive. The choice was between it and Chinese, and I am glad I chose Russian. I haven’t pursued it any since then, so I guess it doesn’t count. I want to buy Rosetta Stone but I don’t know which one to get. I took French in High School, but I feel Spanish might benefit me better here in Texas. Italian would be cool too. Choices, choices.
Living in the U.S., Spanish is becoming extremely applicable. It seems a lot of jobs (especially in Texas) require you to be conversational in La Espanol. However, going back to my overall goal of becoming an Engineer, I’m trying to think of what may be the most marketable language for that profession.
Based on my research so far, I’ve found Japanese, and Chinese to be the best for engineers.
Additionally, I feel like learning a less popular, or more obscure language (depending on how you look at it) will improve my marketability since fewer people (in the U.S.) are fluent in languages such as Arabic, Portuguese, Japanese….
What do you think?

Since Dutch is my native language, being here writing English entries sort of made me accomplish this goal ;) On my to learn list is Spanish, I would love to be able to speak that language.

Fluently! I’ve taken ASL (not technically foreign…), Spanish, Italian, Latin, a little bit of German and French and I don’t really speak any of them. I have a good generalized understanding of things that are going on in the language and conversations, but I certainly can’t speak any of them.
just bought rosetta stone. learning by myself wasn’t really working and classes didn’t fit with my schedule. so far actually working pretty well.

monkeymig69 asks,
“I have no idea. Is it best to learn grammer first, or nowns, or phrases? Anyone have any idea of what people normally acheive within what time frame? Help.”
