Instead of shopping this friday, I am learning multiple foreign languages
My French is nearly conversational. Already up to level 2 in German. Spanish is pretty easy. Danish is pointlessly hard. Russian is crazy HARD (!!!!!). Turkish is probably hard... will try it soon.

How do Russians' heads not explode when talking that gibberish :P

Next up are Japanese and Chinese.

If I were younger I'd be teaching myself a foreign language with one of the computer programs that are out there.

I found Danish pretty easy, but I had already studied German and they are close. Spoken Danish sounds like drunken German.

Re: Instead of shopping this friday, I am learning multiple foreign languages
If we use Gladwell’s of 10,000-hour rule, here’s how long it would take to achieve “expert ability” in a foreign language:

Scenario #1 – Adult education classes – 416 courses of 24 hours per course. If you did 2 courses per year, you’d need 208 years to become fluent.

Scenario #2 – Foreign language studies at school – 96 hours of classes per year = 104 years to achieve fluency.

Scenario #3 – Dedicated self-study – An hour a day, every single day of the year = 365 hours per year = 27 years

Scenario #4 – Total immersion – Approximately 2 years
