This girl is incredible! Her brain must be a little differently vired... 😀 I don't understand how some people can be fluent in more than four or five languages. She learned Korean by watching movies. She's truly dedicated to learning new languages, but she must have a great memory and talent. I studied German in school (an hour a week for five years), but I can't speak it. I understand some. I understand Norwegian and Danish. I can communicate in English and Finnish, and my mother tongue is Swedish. But I've been frustrated that I'm totally fluent only in Swedish. I suppose you need to be immersed with a language to become fluent - hear it for hours every day and speak it daily. I try to pick up basic French from Instagram tutors, but I've come to the conclusion it's too complicated to learn on my own... I would need a course. I would love to learn other languages, but it's not my strongest talent... 😅

@tanjaostman I stumble over my own tongue!
I think you are amazing!

@MaryMamuzich @tanjaostman me too. I have a grandson who is fluent in Spanish and English. His mom is from Chile, my son's wife.

@tanjaostman I believe some have an inborn gift of adapting readily to languages, no doubt adding personal effort to that ability helps a great deal! I don’t have that gift but have seen others who do!
