Youth is the best time to learn new languages too, they're harder to acquire later in life for some reason.

- soperj 9y agoI've learned 4 languages now. English - only language my parents spoke. French - did French Immersion Finnish - spent time in Finland in my teens and learned the language German - just started picking it up 3 years ago The main difference I see is 2 things, time & immersion. I know less German after 3 years than I did through French Immersion, but I've spent way less time doing it, never had any formal instruction, and haven't spent 7 hours every week day having to talk and listen to German. I know more German than Finnish though, simply because I didn't spend as much effort actually learning Finnish, it all came from immersion.
