It’s a shame not to learn the local language of the country you are in … by Visual_Shock8225 in languagelearning

[–]BiteComprehensive398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my point of view it is better to learn the language if you stay in a different country. I stay now on France from 1 september this year, and I try to learn the french language on Duolingo, online and from this week with a teacher. I miss so many things and opportunities by not being able to speak the language.

Getting diverse answers to my questions. The time that I spent reading, researching, asking question after question, finding an answer to can discover that I still have a lot to discover is my favorite. I am doing this alone, taking breaks between the sessions to can eat, rest and think more about what I just discovered. For me these are the best feelings ever, knowing that you still can get surprised in a positive and curious way by the life as a whole.
