Good point, but I'd recommend watching out for mistranslations, otherwise when speaking/writing German, the wrong word is going to come up, and you're going to have to be corrected several times before you are able to naturally find the correct word. In my experience, it's much harder to unlearn a mistake than to learn correctly the first time. For learning without having to do something else, I'd recommend: * Turning on subtitles in the target language for all films you watch. * Listening to web radio when you're walking/commuting (if you have a smartphone/dataplan). Depending on the language, there are even programs in which the reporters speak slowly and provide a transcript (example: RFI français facile for French, Klartext for Swedish). * Buying bilingual books (where the English is on the left and the other language is on the right).
