 Learning a new language in a short time entails a combination of efficient strategies, consistent effort, and immersion. Here is a structured approach: 

Set Clear Goals

Define your purpose: Is it travel, work, or personal enrichment? Use your goal to guide your means of obtaining the same.

Set milestones: Decide on the milestones of your learning: to acquire basic phrases or to start a 5-minute conversation.

Be sure of High Frequency Words

Know the basics: Start with 1000-2000 most common words and phrases.

Use spaced repetition vocabulary recall tools like Anki or Quizlet.

Immerse Yourself

Listen: Movies, shows, or podcasts in the target language with subtitles.

Speak: Speak with the natives by apps such as iTalki, HelloTalk, or Tandem.

Read: Read simple texts, children stories, or news articles.

Write: Keep a diary or practice texting in this language.

Employ Technology

Apps: Duolingo, Babbel, and Memrise are more than enough for beginners.

Language exchange apps: Talking to natives would definitely help you out.

AI tools: Use various tools, such as ChatGPT, to role-play conversations or translate phrases.

Practice speaking from day one

Shadowing: Repeating after native speakers to copy their pronunciation and intonation.

Record yourself so that you can hear yourself speak and catch mistakes.

Join language meet-ups: Look for short, local or even virtual groups to practice.

Immerse in Real-life Scenarios

Label your environment: Write sticky notes on objects around your house with their names in the target language.

Practice: Involve that language in day-to-day activities when cooking, commuting, etc.

Change the system settings: Change your device settings to the language you are learning.

Be Consistent

Generally, try to maintain daily practice, with at least 15-30 minutes daily.

Maximize each minute: Fill unused time, as waiting in line, with a few quick drills.

Use Other Structured Learning

Enroll in a course. Online platforms like Coursera or Udemy offer comprehensive language learning courses.
