My friend is looking for a resource to become fluent in French, he is forced to work with it. Asked to find a certain book, but it is not yet pirated on the resources of the wiki. My guess is that pirates have better alternatives for such a thing, so I’m launching a discussion.

I only ever heard about the book “Minna no Nihongo” in the context of learning Japanese.

EDIT: Thanks everybody.

    Not really about piracy, but doing language exchanges is a great way to learn a language. You teach someone your language, they teach you theirs. It’s free and it gives you more knowledge than any book. Natural languages don’t work with strict rules usually, natives speak by feel, the only way to learn that feel is by interacting with people.

      There are some limitations though: often native speakers don’t have a deep understanding of the grammar rules they use, because they use them intuitively. So sometimes learning this way makes it a bit foggy. I often use this technique when I’m already familiar with the target language, At a basic level.
