So has any one here ever learned another language by them selves??..ie, not somethin they took in school. But like learned a completely new tounge with no background of speaking or hearing the language?? I just started to learn Finnish just recently. Im just curious on how long it takes roughly to learn the basics of the language. So far ive been workin on it for about 2 weeks and im just starting to develope an ear for the way it sounds.

yea, im learnin mine through a book and CD combo. The one good thing about me is one of my strongest aspecs is linguistics. Ive been tested since i was in grade 2 cuz i have some LD's(learnin disabilities), they tested me 2 figure out where im strong, where im not. Apprently verbaly im exceptional, but when it comes 2 things like writing and spelling i suck.
But yea, im starting to pickup on the pronunciation of alot of words. Finnish is alot like Swedish and Norwegein. Alot of rolling Rs and alot of different holding of sounds..like they are double lettered. like some words have a single o, or they are longer words used in different context with double oo's |
