“A different language is a different vision of life.” -Federico Fellini
Learning a new language can be really fun and at the same time
really exhausting. Just like learning anything new it takes time and a little
bit of patience. Growing up in a bilingual environment may have influenced in
me in having an interest in learning other languages since a really young age.
So many languages so little time! When I finally enrolled at university I had
the opportunity to take a variety of languages. At the end I ended up choosing
French, Japanese and German. Yes, I know they are very different – completely
different families but I love it and enjoy very much the journey in learning these beautiful languages (and their culture). I most point out I’m not an expert but I thought I would
share a few tips for fellow language enthusiasts or if you are planning on
learning a new language for the first time.
