The best way to learn a language is to go to the place they speak it, and fall in love with somebody. Seriously, dating a native speaker, and having them commit to speaking to you in their language.
If you're willing to move, and emerse yourself, learning a language only takes a couple months. It's extreme, but unlink almost all other ways of teaching a language, it works.
- riffraff 16y agoundoubtedly a good advice, but notice that this may be _really_ frustrating for your partner, when he/she would be able to express in your language but is forced to go through the painful motions of using ten different words, paraphrasing and then mimicing until you finally get that she/he just wanted you to go get the sugar. On the other hand,you may pick up some bad habits: depending on your situation, you may realize too late that your better half swears a lot and you are not supposed to talk like that to their parents, or end up using baby talk with your boss. It's a great way to get funny stories though :)
