If I choose to learn, say, Dutch and then learn German afterwards; is it likely from
there on in that my German will be highly influenced by Dutch and I'll find myself accidentally speaking Dutch/using Dutch grammar/etc? Or is this not really a concern at all and by getting to a standard high enough in Dutch, I'll be able to distinguish them both better when I move onto the second language? 1 person has voted this message useful | |
