The best way to "learn", pardon me...not "learn", rather acquire a language is my absorbing tons of spoken and written messages that are rich, interesting and recycle vocabulary, but are a little above the current level of the learner (this is referred to as "i + 1" by Dr. Stephen Krashen who is the top researcher and professor of Second Language Acquisition, and who coined this concept of the way we get language in our head: Comprehensible Input). Language "learning" should *not* be hard work. It should be a blast, a fun journey, a party in our brains! Haha, because we are hard-wired for language acquisition. Goodbye grammar textbooks :( Hello natural grammar acquisition through receiving interesting input :)
