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?

maybe

my grandma is japanese.
and i use to go over there a ton
and she always watches movies that are in japanese.
and i also go to maryland with her and my grandpa to her sister
and listen to them talk japanese.

so yea if you spend enough time and pay attention enough
you can pick up a language.
you may need to ask some questions and stuff though..


i mean i know i can
but everyone is different.
