    I met Sir Christopher Lee on the concourse of London Waterloo station back in 1987. I was a train guard for BR/NSE at the time and he approached me and asked if I knew which platform the next train for Shepperton would be going from. He’d just missed one so I explained and said we’d have to keep an eye on the departure board. Only 30 seconds before he came to me I’d been listening to my Sony Walkman. After explaining about the Shepperton services, he said: “I notice you were listening to music on that gadget, there. Anything good?” I told him I had been listening to Iron Maiden “Live After Death”, to which he replied: “A very fine recording and one of Iron Maiden’s best I must say.” I stood there aghast, truly. Cutting the story short he told me that he’d had a soft spot for heavy rock and metal for years and that he’d love to make his own heavy metal record one day. And do you know what, he did; a couple in fact. All about Charlemagne. Bloody good as well. We talked about music in general for a while and I discovered he loved classical and opera. He also commented on my Yorkshire accent and asked why was I down in London. I told him I’d always wanted to work on the railway and at the time the majority of jobs were in the south. “You moved down here with family?” ‘No on my own’, I explained. “Any friends?” ‘Not before I moved down here, no.’ He said I was very brave and that you should always follow your dreams. Meeting Sir Christopher Lee remains one of my most favourite happenings in my life and I shall cherish that memory until I pop my mortal coil. He was an impressive, warm, kind, humble and funny man. They’ll never be anyone like him again. May he rest in peace.

    He has an ear for language and a tongue for it; meaning, he hears and speaks with a good accent, almost native. That's a very difficult thing to do for most non-native speakers. To be able to get the accent right, and to be able to think in the language rather than to translate back and forth with your native language, both are difficult skills. It looked to me like he was trying hard to think how to say what he wanted to say in German and Italian, and he seemed a bit more comfortable in French. His Spanish was pretty good, although he was overdoing the R and RR. I don't speak German or Italian well, and my Spanish and French are rusty and not as fluent as I would want. I'm American. His fluency is really very good, I'm impressed. I wonder if he was a good singer too.

    Translating is not learning a language, learning a language is like absorbing it and being able to think in it, that is to say if you are someone with an internal monologue which half of the population doesn't have. Modern language learning techniques are quite different from what the school systems teach the people, you're not supposed to learn how grammar works and lots of vocabulary and then piece those two together to form sentences, that's not how you do it with your native language for example, you just think and say and write. To achieve this with a new language you must first understand it, and to understand it you must first not understand it but just know what it might refer to, and you keep doing it and slowly you start to naturally learn words. And what does that refer to? Consuming media. Especially media where you're talked to, like youtube videos. Why and how does this work? Well to put it simply it's analogous to the way babies learn to speak. But as you're an adult you already have a language model in your head and don't need to learn any new concepts related to the world, and on top of that, despite not being recommended as the way to learn a language, learning about grammar, vocab and about pronunciation and the phonetic system of your target language will increase your speed of learning that language, your absorption rate per se, but it shouldn't take more than 5 to 10 percent of your time. Now as a disclaimer it takes thousands of listening hours to learn a language, so like you'll spend 100 hours tops learning vocab and grammar on the side, mostly in the beginning, but yes, thousands of hours. Because how many hours did you spend as a baby and toddler learning your native tongue? Well yeah, all your waking moments, so you have to imagine how many hours will add up if you listen 8 to 16 hours a day to a different language, why do you think in another comment someone was talking about how some people learned german in the military to perfection, if you're suddenly in a different country surrounded 24/7 by a new language, in a few months you'll learn it no problem. I personally have spent more than 25k hours 'immersing' as some will say, in English, which is a funny way to say instead of consuming media in my native language in the past 13 years I've instead consumed media in English, predominantly youtube. To put that into more digestible numbers, I've spend around 5 hours a day in those 13 years consuming some sort of English content. So like, if you have asd like me and can hyperfocus and have special interest than this is going to be easy, otherwise Idk.
