>they talk so fast
Watch Swiss tv then. It's much slower. youtube.com
it takes a long time, the thirdies didnt learn english after their first year of gaming
start with french songs and read the lyrics as you listen
you can then move on to french tv with french(!) subtitles. bonus tip: childrens tv. they speak in slow simple sentences and repeat things often
if your serious get an actual schoolbook to learn grammar and just remember it will take long
Very American question
Learning a second language should come without saying in any educational system
You need to start learning a language when you are a kid. It gets harder and harder the older you get.
we start very early like literally consuming american media when we are children. we grew up playing AOE2 or whatever english game so its very easy when you are still a kid
You only need to know English.
I'm interacting with english since I was 6 y/o, so it kinda developed naturally through the years
Learning a language that isn’t English is a waste of time. I regret having learned some French in school.
I learnt my first English from watching my older friends play Leisure Suit Larry.
You a retard
I studied German for like 7 years and can't remember any of it because it was useless to me and I didn't use it after school. If you aren't going to use a language pretty much daily it's pointless.
100% true. Now imagine if you used that time to learn something useful, like more time for English classes or programming…
It's different when 99% of media you consume is English-language, whereas you're most likely just watching an episode here and there.
Same here but with french.
After primary school never used it so I don't remember any of it.
