F. Time needed to learn

I think that you can give a estimation of the time needed to learn a language in total number of hours spent studying it. This, of course, covers only the core learning, usually with a "method" consisting of lessons, books and tapes. Then it is your choice if you want to study 30 minutes or 3 hours a day, but the total remains the same. For example, total FSI spanish took me about 200 hours, plus some time spent reading newspapers, talking with the cleaning lady or watching TV which I don't count.
