I had tried to learn some languages using online resources on the net(freely accessible ones tho). Didn’t actually commit to it with a plan.
Curious on how others went about it.

Do mention the resources that you liked/found useful.

    If you want to learn a language, surround yourself with it. Watch shows, play games, read articles, change language of your phone. If you don’t understand something, translate it. Use it. Apps are just empty practice if you don’t apply it

      Watch shows, play games, read articles,

      Trying to find porn (with enough of a plot that there’s some speech to translate) in your chosen language is a pretty good one too. The nice thing is that you get tons of context clues for what’s being said to help fill in the stuff you don’t understand. The writing and vocabulary tend to be really simple too, there’s not usually a lot of complex grammar to get bogged down in.

        Jokes aside, kids shows are good as they have basic language in them

        Watches JAV and starts thinking that yamete means very awesome or very good or that they are arriving

        I think people should learn the basic words before going into porn for learning stuff. But yes, it maybe a good way to learn things that are not explained in regular tutorials
