I've just had an epiphany

[RALFFERS 0]

Now 26 years old, I decided I should learn a 3rd language. I know fluent English and Polish, but it would be cool, and not to mention professionally beneficial to learn yet another language; preferably Spanish. Thing is, I have no idea where nor how to begin. Both English as well as Polish were spoken around me at a very young age, making it really easy to pick up; I didn't "learn" them, I just spoke, if that makes any sense. Now I think I'm too old to learn another foreign language. But it's said that it's never too late. Any ideas and/or suggestions would be appreciated.

If you wait for a few years your first language will be Spanish, albeit an Americanized Spanish.

To really learn a language you have to live it, so move to LA, SoCal or Spain.

Last Epiphany I had was several years ago; it's so hard to find a bartender who can make one properly.

Faster horses, younger women, older whiskey, more money.

Why do they call it "Tourist Season" if we can't shoot them?

Get a job working for a landscaper....You'll only hear Spanish all day and will learn fast from necessity!

PS age has nothing to do with learning a language, although true that kids learn quickly. Motivation and persistance matter most. And a girl friend who speaks that language doesn't hurt either!

By the way, if you want to learn another language for professional benefit, learn Chinese!

Move down here to Houston for a few months...you'll pick it up!

Years ago we enrolled our kids, who were Russian, into a local summer school for ESL classes with the idea of getting them prepared for the upcoming fall school session...they came back speaking SPANISH!
