im perfectly fluent in Chinese (i'm british) a chinese girl said the sound of me speaking chinese made her feel like she was a child again lying on the grass on a sunny day.

apart from that it's of no use whatsoever.

rosetta stone is for speaking only and only uses the language you are learning I wouldn't recommend it unless all you want to be able to do is talk to people. I do hear it is quite good for teaching the Chinese tonal system though

>Or male sentences, calling for wife works (like calling for dinner, etc)
The shit got ruined so bad, I don't know where to begin

Not to mention, tests that have sentences you have NEVER heard of (I don't remember them, but there was more than one, and on forums a lot of people mention they have never heard anyone talk like that, yet mods say "technically" that's right or makes sense, so screw you)

it's the best free program I would just use it and not pay. the only downside is you have to do practice lessons if you mess up too much. It has a nice leaderboard too I use it for a hour+ a day because i'm autistic and have to be on top of the leaderboard

Again depends on what you want to learn. Mangolanguages is okay if you want to spend the money for languages that use the Roman alphabet. If you're learning something like Latin, pick something up that written more than 50 years ago and you can avoid most of the stuff than Nu-linguistics has been fagging up the field with. Torrenting is your friend.

If your motivation is that weak you really should spend your time doing something else.

Learning a language for most people is really difficult to do unless you are highly committed and exposed to the language regularly. Even then it can take you years to hold a conversation.

That being said, next to English if it were me I would learn Japanese. It's deceptively simple to learn how to write and you have unending source material to train your ears to it. Also, Japanese people are fucking terrible at English unlike almost everyone else in the world so it does have a practical application.

Although I've recommended Chinese in this thread, and still do, if you want to learn Russian, there is a Russian learning program called "Russian Accelerator" that is far better than any other language learning program. I wish other languages had something similar.

Duolingo is neat but remember to use other sources as well. I finished the entire tree for the language I'm learning which barely made it possible to hold a simple conversation. But I'm also taking classes as part of my College credit, I'm reading literature and listening to podcasts, and I have a grammar book on hand. After a year I'm conversational and still learning.

Best advice? Find someone you can talk to in the language once you decide on one. The language I'm learning is French and I'm fortunate enough to have a Moroccan co-worker who speaks it fluently so whenever we speak it's in French. Helps alot.

Why the hell do you wish to communicate with third-worlders that you will never meet (and they will speak English anyway).

English is the universal language, all due to extensive British and American influence.

Cosmopolitan languages like Spanish, French, Russian, Arabic and Portuguese. If you were diplomat or if you work in the military then you'd have to choose between Russian, Mandarin (Chinese) or Arabic.

I'd pick Russian as the most useful foreign language.

Which one do you want to learn? You can try something unusual to get a better experience in it and know more about different language types. I would recommend you try learning Japanese online https://preply.com/en/skype/japanese-tutors . I started doing that last year. Well, I should say it is a very difficult language for me, but it is very interesting!
