Go Learn the Language on the Spot!

By Bruno Fajou

In this article, I''ll present to you the most effective way to learn a language: a linguistic stay abroad.

There's nothing like going abroad to learn a new language. Some people leave without having knowledge of the language of the country where they go, but it is better to have a minimum of knowledge before departure. So it is necessary to choose a good textbook and good methods to learn a foreign language.

If you have the foundations of a language before you go abroad you will greatly enrich your vocabulary, when you arrived. Since the earliest days, you'll be able to recognize certain words and, identify new words that you do not know yet.

Several options are proposed to make a living language abroad:

1- Doing a year of study.

This option is probably the easiest to find, but it can be very expensive depending on the destination chosen. You go in a host university for a period of one semester or two generally. Doing a year of study abroad is a very rewarding experience most often. But there is a major risk: to remain between compatriots. Very often, "networks" of cooperation between compatriots are being created rapidly abroad, and thus you miss opportunities to communicate and get acquainted with the natives. If you do not fall into this trap, it becomes very easy to learn a new language.

2- Find an internship abroad.

Find an internship abroad, you can enrich your professional courses in addition to learning a new language. It is not necessarily required to study to do an internship in another country.

Have a professional experience abroad is very real trainer. It is found to employ a technical vocabulary, and you are confronted with different mentalities and different ways of doing things, which can only be a plus for your future relationships.

It may be very easy to learn quite quickly a foreign language, but ultimately it depends on opportunities available to us.
