As we have mentioned before in our blog post Is Portuguese the hardest language to learn?<\/a>, learning a new language is never an easy thing to do. You will find different degrees of difficulty when learning any second language. And the difficulty or ease of learning a language will differ from people to people. So, how long does it take to learn Portuguese?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The short and frustrating answer is: it depends!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Caminhos, you can reach the Advanced level in 16 weeks<\/a>. But this also depends on other factors as well. It is not guaranteed that you will reach fluency within that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we think about language similarities, someone who speaks romance languages (or Latin languages), such as Spanish, Italian, or French, ends up learning Portuguese much quicker than an English or Japanese-speaker. However, that also does not mean they cannot effectively learn Portuguese as quickly as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For bilinguals, it is also easier to pick up on a new language. The same thing works for kids. Young children have an incredible ability to learn a new language really fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the end, it all comes back to your personal efforts. Learning a new language is a complex process. It all depends on your motivations, the amount of time you dedicate to your studies, the practice of Portuguese outside of the classroom, your interaction with the culture\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
