Learning a new Language: German

[Mathijs1996]

I'm curious as to how you non-English fluent English speakers know an incredibly wide range of vocabulary...Are there any special techniques that help you remember words etc? It's really amazing....worryingly so! Hopefully I can use some for some speaking exams I have to do... Thanks.

Learning English is just a lot different then other languages,

To start of, since we were kids we heared english on the television.

From the moment we could read we saw the subtitles and mached them with the english words we heared.

From the moment we grew a bit older we started to play runescape and tribalwars.

Here we started to actually type english etc.

After this it just became even more used;

In the daily life we play English games with English people on them talking English all the time.

Even the communities are English.

That's why English is so easy to learn for non-English people.

If you would do the same but then whith french you would be able to speak french almost fluently in 5-7 years without studying.

Ofc. studying will help you expanding your voc and helps you understanding the grammer of the language.

English native speakers are just lazy, so everybody else on the world learns their language instead.

English people learn other languages though.

They aren't forced to, so it isn't the same :\
