you could pick up a language if you were around that particular language a lot?
for example, do you think i could go to france, with no knowledge of French whatsoever, and speak it fluently if i don't even TRY to learn it? i'm not really going to france, it was just an example. but what if you're around people a lot who speak a different language, do you think you could learn it like that? |

No doubt. A friend of mine went to Brazil for ten months knowing almost no Portuguese, and came back fluent.
