Hi all,

I have wanted to study German for 2 years, and I also really want to study Italian. The
"problem"? I'm going on erasmus and am not sure I'll have much time. Furthermore, I
would prefer studying the 2 languages at the same time...

As background information: I'm a french native speaker, have a B1 level in Spanish, C1
in English and B2 in Dutch (my profile isn't up-to-date). Also, I studied 2 intensive
weeks of German 2 years ago and reached +- A2-B1, but couldn't continue after and
forgot it parlty (but with the right material, and my knowledge of Dutch, it should
come back quickly).

I am going in the Netherland, and will therefore use Dutch and English all the time,
and also want to keep using Spanish and learning it by reading, so Italian and German
will not be the only languages I will focus my attention on.

Any advice on how to handle this?

Thanks in advance.

Pick one. If you don't have time, pick one and do the other one after.
