Listen to songs and watch movies in that language. Try to communicate with the native speakers whenever you can. Set a daily goal of the number of new words that you want to memorize. Don't be afraid of making mistakes, and learn from them. Buy interactive language books and do grammar exercises on them.

@SW-User You're smarter, more diligent, and better at languages than me. But I think I knew that before. 😂

@SW-User You're also better looking!

SW-User

@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays Lol You can learn a new language if you really try hard enough. You don't need to be smart for that.

@FrogManSometimesLooksBothWays Thanks lol. Don't compare yourself with others like that though 😂

@SW-User What it takes is patience and dedication -- and devoting the time.

@SW-User That's easy for you to say. You don't have green skin! 🐸
