Learn a language?

What are the difficulties of learning a language? What are the aspects that are important to learn a new language? I think that when you should learn a language you have to accept that is impossible to understand everything at the the begin and that the most important skills are the listening and the speaking.

First, a new language is like a new world and cause of that you always will need a lot of help to understand the language. I believe that at the beginning you should learn grammar and reading, because you need to have a base if you want to learn a language, but then you should begin to learn a lot of new vocabulary and learn how to speak well. One of my recommendation is to travel to a country were that language is the local language because you will learn a lot, you will know if you really understand the language and if you have the enough vocabulary to speak well.

Second, as I said I believe that the most important part of the language is the speaking and the listening because if some day you want to live to a new country you will have to know how to speak and you will need to understand you neighbours if you want to survive. I think that the grammar and the reading are not very important but useful.

To sum up, the most difficult thing that you will have to deal when you learn a language is to enter in the new world that the language is.
