How did you really learn a foreign language?
pasbesoin: Lots of exposure.  Hardly comprehensive, but a few tips:Destiños.  A UIUC/public television teaching show with a running story.http://www.learner.org/resources/series75.htmlFind music in the language, with lyrics, that you like.  When learning German and French, I listened to pop music that friends recommended.  A lot of language learning is not specifically semantic; train your ears (and brain) to the sound of the language.  Sung lyrics can also emphasize aspects of pronunciation and colloquial use in a way other sources may not.Find engaging activities that use the language.  Much more motivating.  And allow yourself to be entertained by the process.  Don't focus just on the end goal of being fluent; enjoy the learning process and each moment of use.
