Biggest frustration - The lack of time I have to dedicate to learning languages.
Biggest pleasure - Speaking with natives, and socialising normally with people of a different mother tongue. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

I have two great frustrations with respect to language learning: The first is that I have
a terrible memory, and forget things almost as soon as I have learned them, and I can't remember what the second one is. 6 persons have voted this message useful | |||

Biggest frustration: searching for the ultimate language learning strategy.

As an Enlish major student in Taiwan, my biggest frustration in learning English is that I still need to consult many vocabulary and many expressions in English. I expected my language proficiency could be as fluent or advance as native speakers, but always in vain. However, I still like learning languages. Differenct languages sometimes are like different tunes in communication for me. Sense of enjoymeny of the "singing" and sense of achievement in "composing" would be best rewards for me in terms of language learning.

Frustration: People claiming fluency and advanced skills in multiple languages when they have never learned at least one foreign language to an advanced level (and are therefore unaware of how much they do not know).

I don't know that I would consider that a language-learning frustration. It is annoying, though. R. == 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

My greatest frustration--and I think it is very common judging from this thread--is my inability to effortlessly say what I want to say in my target language, Spanish.
That said, my greatest joy is the fact that I can actually hold a conversation in Spanish quite well with native speakers as long as we don't stray outside relatively mundane subjects. I feel that a couple of months in a Spanish-speaking country should push me over the top. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

My greatest frustration is that it takes me so long to learn Russian. My greatest joy is that I can speak Spanish.
