It takes at least 500-900 hours of constant study to achieve a “near native” fluency in a language (and that goes for everyone. You are not special, you would not whiz through it faster)

So, idiot, he is not talking about learning a “little french” – the kind you would get from a dozen hours of study, the ability to use a few common phrases like “Where is the bathroom?”. To read at a 16th grade level, you’d need many solid months.

losing. Learn a little English
