If you're asked "Why aren't you joining a language class?" You could simply say "I have Autodidacticism" and see if they understand you!

I haven't even figured out how to say it yet, but I'll try it. It's probably the best ism to have.

Damn I love that! They'll probably think it's like ADD though or something that prevents us from learning in school. It can be a "how-to-learn-any-language.com" inside joke. :-P 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

And when they realise that we can speak languages better than they can, they'll all want to have it! 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

Autodidacticism! That's why I'm afraid to join an English course (or French, Italian, German, Portuguese or Hebrew) to improve my skills in these languages. I think I would waste my time and money (even though having a teacher assistence in person is always very helpful). In fact I'm sometimes so busy and my schedule is so irregular that I think it wouldn't work for me.
So I prefer to learn myself. I've come to the conclusion that if I have access to internet, I have everything to learn many languages myself. Edited by Alfonso on 03 July 2006 at 12:27am 1 person has voted this message useful |
