BrianFaePerth Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Immersion is the best way to do it. Even then it takes years to pick up on the nuances of language and regional dialects. While eh am completely fluent in the Bergen version of Norwegian, eh never attained the ultimate level - Respect from trades folk . In theory only a white man can attain this, but don’t think it’s ever been achieved. Link to comment

Redforever86 Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Absolutely no point in learning another language imo. Most youngsters everywhere can speak English and your phone can translate things if you’re really stuck. If you enjoy it and want to spend a decent amount of time in a certain country/region then maybe but for a holiday fuck that. 1 Link to comment

Dad Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Whilst there's evidence for him backing immersion as the way to go, I see nothing indicating his actual practice of said method. I wonder why.... I'll tell yous. The smell. Link to comment
