Language / Super fast Polish language learning strategies from internet polyglots [29]
Why sit around critiquing someone because hes doing something your not. These forums used to be informative, but now its a bunch of people spending more time complaining than studying. If youve been in a country for 2 or 3 years and cant speak the language, then you arent trying to. As far as irishpolyglot, i think his experiences cleary give him a thorough enouh knowledge about languages to make an educated guess about the difficulty of polish. Especially compared to those who dont speak more than 1or 2 languages. Its not hard to understand that polish is indoeuropean and hungarian is not. As someone who learned russian as a foreign language, i will admit that it is not the easiest language. But, if you think it or polish are to difficult to learn, then youve never studied languages extensively. And a little fact that I learned while studying for my dutch and german certifications.-- The average citizen is only a B2. But as an American I have to be a c2 for my job. So, whoever said that someone who passed part of a c2 exam isnt fluent has never taken a proficiency exam, and has an odd idea of fluency. Would you say the average citizen isnt fluent in their own language? My old german teacher who barely passed her exam to become a US government translator spoke english better than most my class, and had a much larger vocabulary.
