If I keep watching Bollywood movies, will that help me learn Hindi?

I love all the movies from Asia. First I will master Hindi, move on to Korean, Japanese, Filipino and Malaysian. Will tackle Chinese last.

Namaste 🙏

It's certainly possible. An ex-girlfriend of mine is fluent in German and only picked it up from watching German MTV. She probably had more music-based vocabulary, though, and wouldn't know the word for say, commercialism.

If anyone can speak German, they can conquer the world.Hehe My best friend is from Guinea and she said, to learn German one must have a serious tone with an angry bird face.

English was super hard for me but it was compulsory in school.

@Grassisnotgreenerontheothersid I don't much German, but I know what you mean. It feels like words have to be spat out rather than just softly said. I guess English is a bit of a weird language because it's so inconsistent. I don't notice it, but I'd hate to have to learn it if I wasn't born in England.

I had after school tutoring for English. It was no fun learning it, I’m glad that I have now. English is one of the most important language in the world. @GlassDog

Dude Chinese is the easiest.. they don't even conjugate their verbs. Korean is super difficult.. only because they have different levels of aspiration for letters.

@boklenholley7
I don’t find Korean quite as hard. I can already say a few phrases in Korean. Chinese is more difficult for my heavy German tongue.
