I found the best possible conditions to learn a new language.
By early next month i expect to be moving To libya. Ofcourse they speak Arabic there. What i want to know is when learning a new language they say "immersion" is the best way to learn a new language. Well now is my chance. How can i learn Arabic from just talking with people. What are some useful strategies to imply when picking up a language? I will taking the optional Arabic class at the school i will be going to. So beyound that how i can i prepare myself for a new language?

You know, I honestly don´t think that you have to go to a country in order to learn the language. I think that in order to get the best out of your experience do as much as you can now to learn and be able to read so that when you get there you are merely growing and fine tuning. THat´s what I think. Anyone else?

Hello BelgoHead
I have the same situation. I live and work in Korea and I am learning Korean. Before I came to Korea, I didn't know any Korean, but I did know the general structure of the gammar because it is the same as Japanese. Here's some tips; 1. Stay away from expats as much as possible. Try to only make friends with Libyians. 2. Study Study Study. Learning through immersion requires effort. You must be active in learning. 3. Keep your ears open. You'll hear certain words and phrases, over and over again during the same time or situation. It doesn't take very long to figure out phrases like, "let's go, let's eat, come here." 3. Try to quickly aquire the vocabulary of a 4 year old. I, you, give, do, go, here, write, read, no, yes, what, who, when, why, book, etc. 4. Learn the script. On your way to work every day, try and figure out what the signs on the stores mean. You'll see them everyday, so it's good practice rather than looking at indecipherable words all the time. 5. Talk to people using whatever ability you have. At first, I would say things to my co-workers like, "Do you like coffee?" "It's hot." Just use what you've got when you've got it, and don't be timid. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Korean sentence structure is subject-object-verb also? 1 person has voted this message useful |
