Curious who's done it and what worked, time dedicated per day, best methods for you, time to fluency etc.
And to be clear, I'm not talking about learning enough Spanish so that you can order a beer from the guy at the resort bar in Cancun. And I also don't mean that you have to be able to convey technical ideas or deep thoughts at a native language level. I just mean that you can have a normal conversation about a range of everyday things at a cadence that is comfortable for that local.
I've been using Duolingo for about 8-10 months, and while I feel like I am learning, I realize how weak I am at listening and being able to translate that in my head in a timely manner. I think that Duolingo has made me rely on seeing it written, instead of listening.
