Speaking your way to fluency
Steve of LingQ.com and The Linguist on Language Blog talks about whether you can learn a language just by speaking.

I agree with most everything that is said, except for the idea that speaking does nothing to internalize a language. That I must disagree with. Take math for example: it is a language, of sorts. It absolutely does something to work through a problem with other students even if you do so incorrect...

Why is it that the liberals would be bankrupted if this funding were abolished? The only answer to that is no one wants to give them money.
