Self thought meaning you never learned the language in school
If so, how long did it take you?
I'm two weeks into a pimsleur course going at a rate of one lesson per day and one week into using duolingo for at least an hour per day and I am starting to recognize words now when I look at other sources where the language is used/people having text discussions in the language.
I spent 6 years in school learning french and I wasn't anywhere close to being fluent and there are just a few phrases that still remain in my mind being a decade removed from school
I believe that with self learning and an actual motivation to learn due to desire to relocate to the country of the language I'm learning, I can probably learn 5 times faster than I "learned" a language in school
