If we have foreign sentences with its audio, how many repetitions chorusing them do we need to repeat each sentence to use them spontaneously like a native speaker?
For example:
I want to learn this sentence in Russian,
Это одна из твоих сумасшедших идей?
,and I have the native speaker audio.
If I repeat the sentence in chorus with the audio, how many repetitions will I need to learn it like a native speaker?
100 repetitions,1000 repetitions...
I know it is boring, but what do you think about? Do you have any experience?

I would write more about how delicious 42 pies sounds, but I've derailed the thread enough.

If you want to speak like a native, you need two critical things INPUT and OUTPUT. Don't worry about
the number. The INPUT and OUTPUT will take care of the rest.
