Anyone have suggestions of how they learned German in an effective way? Regards,

I dunno if I "learned' German, but I know enough to get by.. My method however was prolly quite unique...

We had a really cute german exchange student at my school, so I learned German talking to her at lunch and hitting on her... Then I picked up Coles German for Travellers or something like that... and also a german-english pocket dictionary.. which I read whenever I'm bored.. then I started finding people from germany on ICQ and MSN.....

Hehe....I know German
and the best and easiest way to learn it is to be in Germany
I was 6 years in Germany but damn that was a long time ago...
